(her track Rhythm & Blues was a highlight for me last year, but sadly didn't get traction in the EOY poll)

I've been enjoying this song by Ryan Destiny, "How Your Hands Feel" - the production reminds me of Miguel at his peak

loving "made for me" by muni long, yes i know it is very generic 2004 in its sound but it's done so effectively (yes i also know it came out last year and we high-minded ppl are aware of everything immediately upon release and have fully formed unchanging/correct opinions)

generic 2004 = yes

I have a bunch of new traxx to share... rather than post them individually, I welcome you to visit the 2024 Faves playlist that I'm dumping them into (will organize later).

A few I do want to highlight:
Mreens - Living RoomApparently this artist's first single... I think it's arresting, a singular track:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KTINMTG-O0
Rene Bonét - The Conversation & La Quinta Inn & SuitesI won't embed them both, but they're advance tracks from an album coming out next month (Voice Memos). Great atmosphere – downbeat slow-burn with trap beats. I'm a sucker for that vibe:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dU3sORReYg

Did I mention Mreens before(?) Shit...
― let’s get intertwined (morrisp), Friday, 29 March 2024 22:23 (one month ago) link
Oh no! Sorry. Er... it's such a singular track, I forgot I put it here a month ago!

Jermaine Dupri, Nelly, Ashanti & Juicy J turn a classic ‘90s jam into… a retro dance jam…(?) It’s hard to resist:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gff4gcNjPIg

someone i just stumbled on. here's the most recent thing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NysqWG5Owwcyanca - "my bad"
the older stuff seems a bit more neosoul in comparison to this. thought you might dig, morris.

i went back into some of that cyanca stuff from last year + this is technically only about six months old. sep of last year:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bu716TnuxaEcyanca ― "pb+j" (2023)
damn, pretty good jammy jam i reckon.

nice track from Leigh-Anne - "Stealin' Love":

xxp keyshia cole is an apt comparison w/ how she belts out the chorus, which to my ears is basically perfect. i've come to enjoy giving the lyrics a sapphic reading, the fragrance being specified as 'perfume' (which i'm sure was done for rhyming purposes but w/e) and naturally the 'twin' line

Have you folks heard the two albums she released as Priscilla Renea? Jukebox (2009) is somewhat strange; it’s very poppy and eclectic, but almost “novelty song” in approach, or musical-theater influenced.Coloured (2018) leans into country-soul, with powerful ballads. It’s v good, IMO (…and interesting to listen to at this particular moment).My favorite songs of hers as Muni Long are still, like, “Thot Thoughts” and “Bodies”… but it’s obv these more trad numbers (“Hrs & Hrs” and “Made for Me”) that have really taken off for her!
― rendered nugatory (morrisp), Monday, 8 April 2024 04:55 (one month ago) link
only song i heard by her as priscilla renea was "dollhouse", and not even until years later
― dyl, Monday, 8 April 2024 21:16 (one month ago) link
That aforementioned Rene Bonét album is out today – it's nice
― rendered nugatory (morrisp), Friday, 12 April 2024 17:11 (one month ago) link
this isn't particularly r&b, its fuzz makes it pretty rock-coded, but at the same time the vocal filter brings it directly into the lineage of Miguel. good song. Omar Apollo - "Spite"
