Sometimes the best R&B can be hard to find, but there are plenty of great rhythm and blues tunes to get into if you have the time to sift through the hundreds of newly released songs every week. So that R&B heads can focus on listening to what they really love in its true form, we’ll be offering a digest of the the best new R&B jams that fans of the genre should hear every Friday.
Mahalia — “Jealous” Feat. Rico Nasty
Mahalia and Rico Nasty teamed up for the UK singer’s latest video release for “Jealous.” Directed by Melody Maker and taking inspiration from the ’90s hood classic Belly, Mahalia re-enacts the iconic scene between Tommy, played by DMX, and his girl Keisha when she caught him cheating, but instead Mahalia shows what it would like if Keisha actually got revenge. “Jealous” is her first single that is expected to live on her follow-up to 2020’s Love & Compromise.
