Listen to new must-hear songs from emerging R&B/hip-hop artists like BIG30 & Deb Fan.
Nonetheless, the past week has seen the industry collectively begin to pick its jaws up from the ground and return to regularly scheduled non-Kendrick/Drake-centric programming. Bothaims to highlight some of the best and most interesting new sounds across R&B and hip-hop — from Lila Iké & H.E.R.’s sultry “Boy Is Mine”-esque duet to Elijah Blake’s nostalgic reflection on two lovers who just can’t seem to make things work.
“Baby, we can’t make lemonade/ From sugarwater and lime/ But we tried/ We couldn’t make lemonade/ But maybe we can heal from heartbreak/ In due time,” he sings over a brassy arrangement accented by warbling bass, symphonic strings and ’70s-esque drum licks. Blake’s voice ranges from tender falsetto to nimble rap-sung cadences and dizzying riffs, tracing the inevitably convoluted route of an almost-there love.
