SoMo

SoMo's earliest buzz came from a series of straight-to-YouTube covers of songs by indie R&B artists like Chris Brown and The Weeknd. With his self-titled debut, the Texas-based singer graduates to standing alongside his one-time idols. Tracks like "Show Off" and "We Can Make Love" showcase his knack for tempering salacious lyrics with his mellifluous vocal style. The album's pleasantly slick production is peppered with alluringly dusky moments like the sultry, late-night vibe of "Back to the Start."
