About 3 months late, but the fact that you don't have
is a shame. And this is supposed to be RnB GAF? You shame yourselves.

finally listened to this btw. Great great album. Really love that last song a lot! Definitely going to give it more listens
Nice to hear something new from inc. I like it: http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/17352-teen-inc-a-teardrop-from-below/
I liked the new Theesatisfaction but not so much the Shy Girls EP. It was kind of standard stuff like JMSN's Blue.
Tropics put out an LP and starRo put out a new EP. Both are ok..

She is pretty much channeling Aaliyah throughout this whole album. It's pretty damn great too, another Toronto R&B artist. She'll be going on tour with Jessie Ware. Oh and it's free too.
Link to album.
For the first time in weeks I'm not listening to a throwback RnB playlist lol this is amazing!

Soul and Gospel singer Mavis Staples releases her latest ep today titled Your Good Fortune. Earlier I said this was one of my most anticipated projects for the coming year and this didn't disappoint. This four tracked ep has a rich sound that sinks into the pores of your skin. Mavis Staples voice is full of strength and spirituality. The four tracks present all have a slightly different feel to them; one is somber, one is uplifting, one is dense, and another is heartwarming. This ep is a short, but sweet taste of a mix of soul, gospel, and spirituals. Your Good Fortune is a high recommendation.
Album art is linked for listening pleasure.

Whoarei is one of my favorite recent discoveries in the R&B realm.
He's got a nice ft. on the upcoming Nosaj Thing album: https://soundcloud.com/nosajthing/dont-mind-me-ft-whoarei

Godlike. Intermission I all songs are fire and the intro. Intermission II has a few hits and a few misses but overall my boy trey staying strong. He's really taking over the rnb game and solidifying himself as top 5 right now

I hate you.
Never heard of her, did some research and now I'm gonna check out that album tomorrow. Looking like she might join my recent R&B rotation addiction.Never really listened to the genre but for the past 2 weeks I've been listening to Mama's Gun, Baduizm and New Amerykah pt.2 nonstop lol.
Edit: Listened to the album, so far I love Midnight and Ghost. Definitely gonna listen to the album some more. Thanks for posting it!

One of the best albums of the year. Fully listened & enjoyed.
man this is great. They have so many ideas from song to song, and within the songs themselves, with dubstep, techno, neo-soul, art pop rock, etc but the lead singer has this fantastic gospel voice that grounds the grooves no matter what direction it goes.

Been listening to this album for the past 3 weeks and it's so good. Thanks for sharing it! There are so many good tracks, I love Shaolin Monk MotherFunk, Breathing Underwater, Fingerprints, Borderline With My Atoms, Molasses, By Fire and Swamp Thing.
on rotation now, yep, Album stil kick ass. She can eat my soul without chewing.
LOL
Add me to the list

I've been listening to the new 18+ album a lot. I think it might be one of the most interesting R&B albums I've heard this year for sure. Not sure why I stand on it, but I feel as if it might be a grower. It kind of sounds like a really rough, sadomasochistic version of The XX.
2 seconds into the first track. Fucking sold. There's a seductive darkness going on with their sound.

Thanks for the Abra rec went back and got BLQ Velvet and the new one too, hyped
Yeah I just got that whole EP I liked it so much.
Thank god for alternate links, wasn't trying to spend 20 bucks today, good looks!
Yeah, this is nice. <3 Banks.
Aw yiss! Had no idea this was dropping today until I saw it on twitter, what a great surprise.
I love it (and the video). Jillian stay killin' it.
Not feeling this one at all :/
I've been in love with this song all week.
I always love the synth work on her songs. These bursts that create such an interesting texture, that's either atmospheric, classy and warm. She shows effort on her vocal work too, to give the most intimacy to her songs and to go along with her sound. Love this one. Really shows what Banks is all about.

Recently got into them, holy shit this album is pure fire. I haven't been able to listen to anything else really.
Is anything here better than this absolute miracle of music? Blew my mind when I found out this wasn't the actual original version... it's so good.
I don't really keep up with the modern Rap/R&B scene at all... heard good things about Kendrick Lamar though.
