I knew I shouldn't have clicked on "Lizzo" trending on Twitter only to read about the Ari Lennox thing.

Just got into “Ass Like That”, the Victoria Monét song posted upthread, thanks to SaidTheGramophone’s Songs of 2019 list. The beat and the horns in particular are wonderful.

Any final additions, to close out 2019? I feel like it was a good year for R&B.

how is sir's album (from top dawg entertainment)? i've been hearing his single w/ kendrick "hair down" on the radio and it's a welcome addition for me
a few others to have crossed my radar recently that i think are p solid:

teyana taylor & kehlani "morning"
This song is good but... those lyrics!

a couple eyebrow-raising lines for sure lol

h.e.r. feat. yg "slide"Wow, this is some track (and video)... thanx for sharing. (I don’t like the rap too much, but the song’s strong enough to survive it.)

not a problem, glad you appreciate it. not my fav verse, guest or otherwise, from yg, but i'm glad it's there if only for the "i ain't gotta know astrology..." line lol
h.e.r.'s been hard to get a strong sense of. some of her music is remarkably good, pushes just enough against current fashion to thrill, and then some of it sounds so flat, as if calculated to go down easy with the grammy voters that seem to love her so much

Yeah, this is the first song of hers that I’ve really gone in for... She’s obviously v talented, but usually not quite my style?
