Pick Up Your FeelingsJazmine Sullivan

If you want to experience truly overwhelming vocal prowess, I highly recommend “Pick Up Your Feelings” sung by Jazmine Sullivan.

It’s a track that sits squarely in the heart of classic soul—the kind that makes you want to say, “This is exactly how soul should be.” You can’t confidently go this traditional without serious skill and self-assurance.

And yet, the song’s vintage, bluesy soul vibe is precisely what brings out the very best of Jazmine’s richly textured voice.

If you like Amy Winehouse or Adele, you’ll probably love this too!

Hiatus Kaiyote, a neo-soul band from Australia once dubbed “the hardest band in the world to get tickets for,” has gained global popularity with their high-caliber neo-soul sound.

From their album Mood Valiant—released six years after their previous work—the lead single is Red Room.

Its subtle, creeping strangeness rising up from the ground undeniably reveals a new side of the band.

If a catchy, danceable track like Nakamarra represents “motion,” then Red Room embodies “stillness.” It’s a song you’ll want to hear while comparing it with their other tracks.

One of the most talked-about artists in today’s R&B scene, Lucky Daye.

After appearing on the popular audition show American Idol in 2005 and narrowly missing the cut, he spent years honing his craft behind the scenes as a composer and background vocalist.

But after signing with RCA Records in 2018, his career blossomed rapidly, and he joined the ranks of globally recognized R&B singers.

His new track, My Window ft.

Mahalia, incorporates elements of slow jams and is crafted as a bona fide R&B record.

For fans of Black music, GIVĒON is an irresistible singer-songwriter with a strikingly deep voice.

When he was featured on Drake’s track “Chicago Freestyle,” his breathtaking vocals became a hot topic, earning him worldwide popularity.

Rapidly rising as a singer-songwriter, GIVĒON released “Heartbreak Anniversary” on March 21, 2021.

As the title suggests, it’s a song themed around heartbreak, making it a recommended listen for anyone who has recently gone through a breakup.

R&B singer Kirby, who has gained popularity for her sophisticated musicality.

She previously attended the prestigious Berklee College of Music in the U.S., and her track-making—highly refined in a way that reflects that background—stands out.

Her new song is “Superpower ft.

D Smoke.” It’s an alluring piece featuring a laid-back neo-soul track and vocals that are soulful yet tinged with a touch of ennui.

It shares a musical sensibility with Erykah Badu’s work from the 2000s, so if you like her, this is a must-check release.
