R&B music

  • A bubbly song about a love triangle, "Switch Lanes" reminds you to let go of what is not meant for you.
  • Cleo Sol's immense and personal sophomore album, Mother, comes to a conclusion with "Spirit," a song that leans heavily and wonderfully on gospel instrumentation and '70s soul production.
  • With "Pressure," the Dreamville Records vocalist elevates her status as a neo-soul touchstone, referencing the soul divas before her and leading the way for those to come with fearless charm.
  • One half of the sister duo Chloe x Halle respectfully and ardently invokes Aaliyah on her debut solo single.
  • On the Timbaland-produced "Are You That Somebody," Aaliyah's soulful, contemporary-sounding vocals enchant. Even though it's been over 20 years, this track feels like yesterday.
  • "Video Games" is a flirtatious anthem that tempts us to leave the virtual and enter reality for a steamy encounter.
  • Short's debut EP Drawing, due out later this month, features his single "Queen of Paisley," which echoes influences such as D'Angelo and Raphael Saadiq.
  • A driving drum beat and string section give the song a sinister feel, while its gospel chorus reminds us that we're not headed down this path alone.
  • The new single from Cuban funkmeister Cimafunk, featuring Parliament's George Clinton, is the perfect soundtrack for an end-of-summer front porch party (properly masked, of course).
  • Shawn's latest single and its video are '70s nostalgia at its finest, with a stank-face-inducing bassline provided by D'Mile.
