Tyla – “HOT TUBS”
I like A*POP. It’s good, cohesive, I like the energy and the singles are big-time. And the best track in my opinion was saved for last. One of the best alt–R&B tracks of the year.
Victoria Monet – “Reach Out”
Been a fan since 2014✌️
Chlöe, Timbaland – “Caught”
She’s one of the best R&B/Pop artists in the industry.
Mellissa – “Fight For You”
Jenevieve, Tkay Maidza – “Bellafonte”
One of the best R&B/Pop tracks this year.
Tems – “I’m Not Sure”
Chxrry – “Call Security”
Naomi Sharon – “Better Days”
I don’t usually post slow burn ballads, but this one actually impressed me. Strong presence.
Review: Chris Brown “Brown” Album Review
Disappointing. I was highly anticipating to find a couple gems, but there’s not one in my opinion (outside of the “Holy Blindfold” single that came out last summer). It’s a long album at 27 songs, which is usually a red flag to me, but he’s put out a 40-song album that might actually be a bona fide R&B classic. BROWN just feels like a safe and borderline generic album. The features weren’t impressive to me. Maybe I just have way too high standards. But I should especially considering the kind of music he has put out over the past 20 years. I thought this article linked below was an excellent review of Chris Brown’s new album. I don’t do a whole lot of writing about music, so I’ll leave it to real writers like these at ShatterTheStandards.com.
