Best of the Week
Masego - Masego [album] Historically within the R&B space when an artist releases their self-titled album, it's a statement, a collection of some of their greatest work yet... their most established sound, a coming out of sorts, their album of albums. These usually become timeless bodies of work and Masego just released his. The sensual crooner finally releases his stunning sophomore album and it seems we've stepped into Masego's era. Enjoy the ride. Personal Picks: "Black Anime", "Sax Fifth Avenue", "What You Wanna Try", "Bye Bye My Love", "Who Cares Anyway" & "You Never Visit Me"
Jordan Ward - FORWARD [album] Jordan Ward is to R&B what Smino is to hip-hop. Boundless muthaf*ckin' vibe. Personal Picks: "Sidekick (feat. Joyce Wrice)" this one very much gives me Neptunes feels, "THINK TWICE", "PRICETAG/BEVERLYWOOD", "311 (feat. Gwen Bunn)", "WHITE CROCS (Feat. Ryan Trey) & "FAMJAM4000"
