WHAT IT IS: Polly A began placing songs with some of music’s biggest names (Alicia Keys, Selena Gomez) and co-wrote the gold-selling “Crooked Smile” with J. Cole. The Harlem-based songstress blends R&B, reggae, alter-native and hip hop seamlessly. Her next single builds from a swell of cinematic strings into artfully articulated verses that culminate on a robust refrain.
