Natanya - Feline's Return
83

Wow, the British invasion of R&B is upon us. Natanya is clearly well studied in 90s and early 2000s R&B, because this album is like a trip back to my middle school bedroom CD rack. Love how each track is its own, but is still cohesive enough to make the album feel whole. Favorite tracks: Dangerous, Guitar, On Ur Time

Solid piece of work from Kelsey Lu. Really loved the overall feel of the album. Super ethereal and lovely to listen to. There were a few tracks that weren't my style, but most of them flowed into each other easily without meshing together. Favorite tracks: KINDRED I, Too Much, I'm Not In Love (SOLID COVER), Foreign Car

DESTIN CONRAD - LOVE ON DIGITAL

Decent album! Not as good as Conrad's wHIMSY, in my humble opinion. Still some really great tracks on here. Additionally, it's got re-listen-ability, haha. I will continue listening to this album and likely find a few more favorites and develop a greater appreciation. It's one of those. Favorite tracks: KISSING IN PUBLIC, MR. E, FMU!

DESTIN CONRAD - wHIMSY

Really really amazing piece of work from Destin Conrad. Definitely one of the best and most cohesive albums I've heard in the past year. I can't wait to keep listening to it. Favorite tracks: wHIP, LOVE!, A Lonely Detective, HARD!

Arlo Parks - Ambiguous Desire

Arlo Parks presents a really smooth listening experience here with a few stand out tracks. Love the Sampha track, and I do like the overall feel of the album. However, I don't think I'll be reaching for this one when I want an active listening session. Nice for the background, but it struggles to stand out otherwise for me. Favorite tracks: Blue Disco, Heaven, Senses ft. Sampha, 2SIDED.
