Laura Welsh‘s “Unravel” is a must-listen for fans of Jessie Ware. The minimal, emotionally-heavy track was produced by Dev Hynes (otherwise known as the brilliant nu-R&B mastermind behind Sky Ferreira‘s “Everything Is Embarrassing” and Solange Knowles‘ “Losing You“). It’s also quite, quite good! So much so that […]
AlunaGeorge‘s “Attracting Flies” was accurately described by Stereogum as “probably the sweetest song about telling someone he is full of shit”. It also serves as the first time I’ve officially understood the growing hype around the English duo, who have gained both critical and public […]
I am irritated. Much as I adore Frank Ocean, he constantly serves as a reminder that the gay media doesn’t care about black male musical artists unless they’re against us or “one of us“. They’ll swoon and throw their panties on the stage every time Justin Timberlake […]
Stevie Wonder, Prince, Erykah Badu, Bon Iver and Jill Scott can’t all be wrong about Is Your Love Big Enough?, the debut album from Lianne La Havas. Those are just a few of the famous fans who’ve hopped on board with the English artist’s soulful blend […]

Good news for anyone who wants to watch excessive amounts of footage with Rihanna sitting in a bath tub and looking sad! The music video for her duet with Mikky Ekko, “Stay”, premiered today in a not-at-all-strategically-planned “leak”, and it finds the Bajan pop princess […]
It would not be inaccurate to say that we initially thought Vali‘s “Ben ‘n Jerry” was a song about double penetration. It wouldn’t be that much of a stretch! The song opens with the lyrics, “I wanna have my cake and eat it too. Don’t blame […]
I’m fighting so hard to not compare Elli Ingram to fellow Brit-pop-soul singer Adele. I mean, it always drives me crazy when judges on reality TV shows like The Voice or American Idol look at a girl who isn’t a size zero and spurt out, […]
Fresh off the not-quite-at-all-but-sort-of-almost reunion of Destiny’s Child, the brave soul known as Kelly Rowland ventured out on a quest to raise awareness about oral sex. The sultry singer’s new single “Kisses Down Low” is the best thing to happen to cunnylingus since Khia‘s “My Neck, […]
