In this article, we spotlight male Western artists you should be paying attention to right now, including members of the younger generation born in the 2000s.

Many of their songs are easy to listen to, so they’re great recommendations for newcomers to Western music as well!

The Weeknd, with his one-of-a-kind voice, has grown to feel like a defining figure in the R&B scene since the 2010s.

He hadn’t released an original album since 2016’s Starboy, but in 2019 he dropped singles of differing styles like Heartless and Blinding Lights.

While the exact date is still unknown at this point, the long-awaited album After Hours is scheduled for release in 2020.

In conclusion

We introduced a truly wide range of artists—from traditional singer-songwriters who sing with an acoustic guitar in hand, to those crafting cutting-edge sounds, and artists from the countryside who fuse various genres. I’d be thrilled if you found a favorite singer in this article—someone you’ll be listening to for a long time in your musical life!
