Majid Jordan & Ne-Yo Usher In Winter Nights On Our New “R&B Season” Playlist Update

There’s nothing like some soulful tunes to help you warm up as November rolls around and the winter is right around the corner. For that reason, we complied the best releases of the week for our latest R&B Season playlist update so you can get all the heat you need. First up is Majid Jordan’s long-awaited new album Good People, comprised of nine tracks that play with lengthy songwriting and creating dense atmospheres of gorgeous vocals and instrumentation. If you want a sampler to get a taste, look no further than the breezy and softly engaging track “Eyes Closed.” Moreover, if you want to get even more ready for the holiday season, Giveon has you covered with his quietly tender “O Christmas Tree” single, which he dropped long before his latest one, “The First Noel.”

Furthermore, another R&B Season highlight came from Ne-Yo and Fabolous, who remixed the former’s single “Link Up.” It’s a very funky jam, with watery piano keys and dense bass courtesy of Hitmaka that will keep a dance floor grooving. On that same dance-heavy and catchily melodic note, we have a dual single from Mannywellz and Pink Sweat$. “Attention” and “Better With You” pull a lot from Afrobeat and dancehall rhythms, and the result is a summery banger that keeps the party going even in chilly weather.

However, if you still want a more fittingly slow and spacey cut for your R&B Season listening, Lucky Daye’s new song “That’s You” is here to please. The main appeal here is unquestionably Daye’s beautiful performance, flowing between falsettos and passionate runs over a classically sultry backing track. When you feel the need to pop in a full album experience this week, then Ryan Trey’s STREETS SAY YOU MISS ME will have plenty of highlights and intimate records for you to spin. Particularly, we want to shout out “MORE THAN SORRY” for its trap-R&B blend that would fit just as well on a soulful record as it would on a hip-hop-oriented one.

Meanwhile, we have one more release to cover: EARTHGANG and Spillage Village’s psychedelic and dreamy single “Blacklight.” What was your favorite release from our R&B Season playlist update this week? Drop your thoughts on that- and on what we missed- down in the comments section below. Also, check out the playlist in full above and come back to HNHH for more great music drops around the clock.

Majid Jordan Release A Wavy Tale About Love On “Hands Tied”

Canada’s alternative R&B outfit, Majid Jordan, has plenty of news to share with their fans. Just a few hours ago, singer Majid Al Maskati and producer Jordan Ullman, announced an album, a new single, and an upcoming tour. This has lots of their fans excited, especially after a couple of years of meticulous planning. We covered the singer-producer duo’s latest track, “Waiting For You” with Naomi Sharon, just a short time ago. That song was a stunning ballad and all three artists sounded beautifully together.

Now, Jordan is upping the ante with this brand-new single, “Hands Tied.” This is a solo cut and is over five minutes long. But, if there is one thing to know about them, Majid Jordan knows how to make it a blissful experience. That is what this track is all about and it delivers. They shared the meaning behind the song on their Instagram, saying, “This is a story about how, in traditional environments, love is a way of connecting. It depicts a young couple who’s hands are tied but they are deeply in love and taking risks to be together.”

They continue, “In private, they reveal more about themselves than they have ever revealed to anyone else in society. The man is happy that he found someone so peaceful and the woman is happy she found someone that makes her feel safe enough to be herself.” On top of this, this and “Waiting For You” will appear on their next album, Good People. The title was confirmed by Rated R&B, however, there is no release date yet. The website and the duo also made it official that they will be going on tour starting in late November and ending in the middle of December.

Love is the answer, love is here, you know it
Mysterious, there’s no in the world but us (But us)
I’m feelin’ your love (Your love)

Majid Jordan Will End The Year With Their ‘Good People Live Tour’ In North America And Europe

Drake-approved Canadian R&B duo Majid Jordan has announced the dates for their next tour, the Good People Live Tour. Although it has been about two years since their last album, Wildest Dreams, they did poke their heads above ground recently, collaborating with new OVO labelmate Naomi Sharon on “Waiting For You.” Perhaps the new single and tour dates suggest a longer project coming soon.

It would certainly be fantastic timing for them, as their unique, dance-centric take on R&B is closer to where hip-hop, R&B, and pop music have been for the last year or so. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10:00 am local time. You can find more info here and the full schedule of dates below.

Majid Jordan And Naomi Sharon Create Vocal Symphony On “Waiting For You”

Toronto’s own R&B heaven-sent duo of singer Majid Al Maskati and producer Jordan Ullman are back with a new single for 2023. In fact, this is their first solo release since 2021, when they released their last full-length studio effort, Wildest Dreams. That project featured some heavy hitters such as Swae Lee, Drake, and Diddy. Majid Jordan had some wonderful and whimsical tracks such as “Waves of Blue,” “Summer Rain,” and “Stars Align” with their label head, Drake. Unfortunately, the duo has remained fairly dormant.

We say fairly because there have been some songs remixed featuring the two Canadians in the past year or so. But, no solo material in over two years. But, now they are finally making a little return to the R&B space with this just-dropped track called, “Waiting For You.” They are not alone on this cut, however, as Naomi Sharon makes an appearance here as well.

Listen To “Waiting For You” From Majid Jordan And Naomi Sharon

We also get a music video for this song and the visuals definitely have a throwback vibe to them. The video is grainy and the soft fadeaways in between Sharon and Jordan give it a nostalgic feeling. “Waiting For You” itself is a stunning track, as expected. The vocals bleed so well into each other from Sharon and Maskati and the production from Ullman is sensual and sweet. It is about willing to wait for someone you really care about no matter the cost. Like the message of the song, we are always willing to wait on Jordan for new music.

What are your initial thoughts on this brand new track, “Waiting For You,” with Majid Jordan and Naomi Sharon? Is this one of the best R&B songs of 2023? Do you think this duo should collaborate more often? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the hottest song releases and all of the latest breaking news around the music world.

Quotable Lyrics:

I’m willin’ to look like a fool
In the quiet, I pray for you
No more anger, only love inside
Close my eyes, feel alive

Khalid’s ‘Scenic Drive’ Seeks To Overcome Artistic Pressures By Just Letting Things Be

When Khalid announced his new project Scenic Drive, and distinctly noted that it was a “tape” he was excited to deliver to fans, one thing came to mind. A little over three months ago, the Texas native offloaded a series of tweets that amounted to an honest admission of writer’s block and struggles with the “overwhelming” balance to meet expectations, remain authentic, and grow into something new and different as an artist. It’s truthfully something most, if not all artists, are forced to grapple with around their second and third albums. Sophomore slumps are already pressure-inducing enough, but even when they’re overcome, the pressure to do it a third time is just as high, if not even higher.

Khalid is a star in his own right. Both of his albums, 2017’s American Teen and 2019’s Free Spirit, are multi-platinum bodies of work with the latter serving as his first No. 1 album. Plenty of awards feature Khalid’s name and his work, and it all contributes to the pressures he feels going into his third album, which he already revealed is titled Everything Is Changing. As a musician, there are practically three options when a mental roadblock is hit while crafting art: trudge through it, wait for it to go away, or divert onto a new and hopefully uninterrupted path. Khalid’s Scenic Drive is the result of his decision to do the last option.

On Scenic Drive, Khalid seeks to overcome his self-doubts by just letting things be. The intention behind this project is to seemingly just do it, to just release music, get back into the swing of things, and even self-supply a boost in confidence. The music on Scenic Drive is simple and appetizing at most as Khalid plays things safely while remaining in a comfortable pocket. It’s the kind of easygoing bass-heavy R&B music that’s romantic, lovelorn, and everything in the middle. It falls on the complete opposite end of the spectrum from what he said Everything Is Changing will present. He previously noted that the songs on the album center “around trying to find a purpose and a sense of self in a world where everything is digitally connected but emotionally disconnected.” All in all, a sharp contrast from what we hear on Scenic Drive.

For what it’s worth, Khalid’s latest project is simply an observant journey through one’s love life, whether it be his own or someone else. It touches on all areas, including the shy moments in the early stages where the respective parties are scared to admit their feelings as “Brand New” and “Open” detail. On the flip side, Khalid keeps things honest and straight to the point about a woman who fails to hold her end of the bargain in a relationship on “Retrograde” and “All Is Bad.” There’s also the hesitance to acknowledge that love is fading away on “Voicemail.” However, if there are tracks that are no doubt made from Khalid’s first-person point of view, it’s “Backseat” and “Scenic Drive.” These see the singer relishing in the natural beauty and existence of what surrounds him while appreciating the fact that he’s able to enjoy it all together.

Scenic Drive unwinds a tense mind through effortless music. It’s something that’s apparent from the moment that Alicia Keys’ free-floating harmonies fall from our speakers. Only Khalid himself knows what he sought through creating this project. Maybe it’s a creative dump in the name of clarity or a moment to refine his skills and return to form. Whatever it is, a sigh of relief as Scenic Drive concludes can be felt as Khalid lets go and allows things to be in their most natural sense. Aligning himself with talented artists like Lucky Daye, 6lack, Kiana Lede, JID, Majid Jordan, and more only add to the appeal of the whole project which is filled with good and enjoyable music. Hopefully, this makes things easier and less weighted for Khalid as he returns to working on Everything Is Changing.

Scenic Drive is out now via Right Hand Music/RCA. Get it here.
