‘Planet Paradise (Prod. Louie Lastic)’ by GoldLink
Your baby daddy’s back… @GoldLink
‘Lost Queen’ by Pharrell Williams
If “Lost Queen” is the Partition, “Freq” is the Yoncé.
Except add in JoJo, and yes that really did just happen.
‘So Fresh, So Clean (Blues Cover)’ by Xiomara
The perfect overcast pick-me-up to revive the cooped up ego.
PHAT NEWS
Please, everyone prepare yourselves for a second coming in the golden era of Def Jam.
So many possibilities… Chances are, the product is going to be far from the obvious. This girl still has her fingers crossed for a real alt. hip-hop revival, though. Either way, let’s all agree those samples are going to be T I G H T. And Ocean’s coming out with another album? Game over.
Solitude by Tev'n
This is the shit PBR&B lives for. North London based R&B come-up Tev'n is everything your ears were craving– and more. Self-released Solitude showcases the singer’s smooth vocals, while packing in some powerful instrumentals. Tev'n combines elements of frustration and torment with heavy tones of sexuality, each song bringing something new to the table. Listening to it is slightly reminiscent of my first time hearing The Weeknd, but unlike Trilogy’s dazed, transient melodies, Solitude demands your undivided attention. If there is to be any criticism, it’s only that I want more.
Tracks to listen to: All of them, especially “These Virtues” and “Falling Away”
And if you don’t know, now you know.
