Cuco, Triathalon, Victor Internet

Since the release of his 2017 mixtape Wannabewithu, Cuco’s romantic dalliances and Chicano swag have encapsulated a transparent vulnerability. Like an innocent John Cusack boombox serenade, the California songwriter – real name Omar Banos – remains overtly sentimental as earnest Spanish/English sweet nothings float amongst six-stringed reverb, synth plumes, and woozy pillow talk. Debut full-length Para Mí hits this month. – Alex Ramirez
