New Music Spotlight: R&B Edition XXV
Welcome back to The Daily Note’s weekly “New Music Spotlight”— where we talk about music your ears should be on, by artists to keep your eyes on. Let's get into this week's top three new picks.
First Pick: “2x2” by Dono and SWAVAY is a grounding track that feels uplifting & inspiring. The chemistry between Dono and SWAVAY on this track heightens the motivating nature felt throughout the song. This is an honest anthem that encourages anyone listening to keep moving forward even when adversity presents itself. This is a standout track from Dono’s recently released project, “Growing Pains.”
Second Pick: “IF YOU REALLY WANNA” by Amari Noelle is a laid-back head-bopping groove that’s smooth and cool. The production lives somewhere between the new and old school. This is the type of song that enhances the ambiance of a late-night cruise. This is track 5 from the rising singer's recent project “LOVER GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN.”
Third Pick: “Start a Fire” by Lord Scorpio is an emotionally-driven chronicle of lovers at odds when mutual respect becomes compromised. The emerging singer delivers a vocal performance that feels beautifully haunting and empowering on this track. Lord Scorpio takes listeners on a vulnerable and honest journey throughout this song.
