Summer is still crackling with plenty of great music and with that in mind the polls are officially open for the second heat of Round 1 in the Enstars Readers' Choice Song of Summer 2015 Tournament!
The Heat 2 contenders with their respective polls are below. Voting will close in a week.
"Bad Girls" - MKTO vs. "Dirty Work" - Austin Mahone
"Bad Girls" has a funky feel to it with edgy lyrics to sing along to.
Mahone's "Dirty Work" is also pretty funky, but unfortunately there is only one of him whereas MKTO brings two soulful dudes to the table.
Vote:
"Cheerleader" - OMI (Felix Jaehn Remix) vs. "Where Are Ü Now" - Jack Ü (Skrillex and Diplo) with Justin Bieber "Cheerleader" is so damn infectious and bubbly!
The collaborative track from Skrillex, Diplo and Bieber is on par with OMI's remixed hit though.
Vote:"Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)" - Silento vs. "Bum Bum" - Kat DeLuna featuring Trey Songz
"Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)" is easily a sensational hit this summer since it gets people to break out into various hip-hop dance moves
"Bum Bum" is a creeper summer jam though with its provocative nature and sampling from two great singles from the past.
Vote:
"See You Again" - Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth vs. "Fight Song" - Rachel Platten "See You Again" is quite the emotionally evoking track for summer.
Platten's "Fight Song" is just as emotional, but instead of being about loss and honoring the ones that are gone, it's about empowerment and liberation!
Vote:"Fire N Gold" - Bea Miller vs. "Good for You" - Selena Gomez featuring A$AP Rocky
"Fire N Gold" is a seriously awesome pop/rock anthem that's meant for blasting with all your vehicle's windows down.
On the other hand, a sensual, slow collaboration could be just as pleasing.
Vote:
"Good Thing" - Sage the Gemini featuring Nick Jonas vs. "Post To Be" - Omarion featuring Chris Brown and Jhené Aiko A seductive track about keeping relationships super casual and fun is all the rage especially with Jonas' soulful serenading to hook and reel you in.
"Post To Be" is just as seductive, but a bit more impacting on pop culture given its super shrewd lyrics.
:"This Summer's Gonna Hurt Like a MotherF****r" - Maroon 5 vs. "She's Kinda Hot" - 5 Seconds of Summer
Maroon 5 is known for releasing hit after hit and this summer themed single is definitely edgy and earning plenty of praise.
5SOS' latest single has shifted in terms of sound to being edgier, but it still represents the Australian pop/punk rockers perfectly especially with their meaningful lyrics. This tune is so inspirational!
Vote:
"Stitches" - Shawn Mendes vs. "Classic Man" - Jidenna featuring Roman GianArthur Heartache never sounded so good! Mendes really managed to bring such an undeniable liveliness to such a sad topic.
"Classic Man" is probably the swankiest hip-hop track around right now. Jidenna and GianArthur seriously struck mega-success with this party tune.
