R&B is one of the most dynamic, adventurous sounds in modern music, a place where art both personal and provocative meets the mainstream. From the alt vanguard to modern vets, straightforward to left-field, these tracks capture where R&B is now and point the way to where it’s going. This week, Bryson Tiller’s “I Need Her”, off of his double album Solace & The Vices, is at the top of the playlist. The ’90s-inspired track envisions a future where the singer-songwriter settles down with his lover. “Hearing your voice and only yours, I’m saying this (What?)/You’re my favourite of all time, I/Know without you, there’s no more sweet songs/And I can’t make ’em alone,” he croons. We update this playlist regularly. If you like a track, add it to your library.
