If there ever was a perfect month to celebrate R&B, it’s February. From the romantic Valentine’s Day vibes to commemorating Black History Month, our weekly playlist update has a handful of new music recommendations that are sure to satisfy your streaming needs. Kicking things off on R&B Season this Sunday (February 19) is Yung Bleu.
After dropping his TANTRA album last year, the vocalist returned on February 14th with a vulnerable track called “Games Women Play.” Throughout his verses, Bleu rhymes about the vast spectrum of emotions one feels in love. From anger to sheer bliss, he perfectly encapsulates it all in under three minutes on his new song.
Plenty of collaborative R&B efforts were sent our way this weekend. A quickly emerging favourite among them is OG Parker’s “Still Work,” on which he connects with two incredibly talented artists. Both Ty Dolla $ign and Muni Long shine on the single that’s sure to be streaming well into spring.
A Boogie Wit da Hoodie is another artist who previously fed fans with an album in 2022. His Me vs. Myself project made an impressive debut in December, and “No 808’s” marks his first release of the new year. Since landing on DSPs last Tuesday, the Vory-assisted single has already amassed upwards of 875K streams on Spotify.
For his second feature of the week, Ty Dolla helped out an R&B veteran, Mario. The duo markedly show out on their “Used To Me” joint – yet another Valentine’s Day drop-off. It’s also been steadily racking up the streams, reminding listeners exactly why they love the two artists so much.
Our final two selections of the week are a solo effort from RealestK and a link-up between Njomza and Louis The Child. The Canadian continued his recent successful streak with “You & I.” At the same time, the latter duo poured plenty of hard work into their single, “Over You.”
