I Really Don’t Care – Bilal
I can’t think of a better track title for the Music to Forget Your Troubles playlist than “I Really Don’t Care.” This track from Bilal is off of his 2015 album, “In Another Life.” I’m also a huge fan of the producer of this album, the prolific Adrian Younge, who also played a majority of the instruments on the album. The sounds are a throwback to 60’s and 70’s funk and soul, with the unique falsetto, classically trained R’n’B vocals of Bilal.

Art and music are indeed some of the most efficient and fit platforms to address social problems. Besides, being as subjective and democratic as it is, music is meant to entertain but sometimes it might also make you think.
