Apple Music’s R&B Now has Tems’ “What You Need” at the top this week, and it’s a good reminder that the best R&B doesn’t always need a huge chorus. The restraint is the point. If you’ve been sleeping on Love Is A Kingdom, start there. 📡#LVRSRadio

Jhené Aiko’s first album in six years lands tomorrow. Westside Whimsy is 20 tracks deep with Ab-Soul, Tyga, Larry June, OHMA + Kendrick Lamar. If you’ve been waiting on a full-length return since Chilombo, this is the one to watch. 🌊

Xbox to Sony:

We’re often surprisingly good at reading other people’s relationships—and surprisingly bad at reading our own. I call that The Exception Problem. “The possibility of an exception is not evidence that you are one.” New essay: xitter.cf/HopeInSeptember/status…

UK R&B has been in one of its best runs in years, and Bellah deserves to be in more of the conversation. State Of Emergency Vol. 1 is tight, warm, grown R&B with almost no wasted motion. Start with “Critical Condition,” then run the full 23 minutes. 📡

📡 R&B CHECK-IN: 🎵 Kehlani’s “Folded” is back at No. 1 on Adult R&B Airplay. More than a year after release, the record still has real staying power. What gives an R&B song a long life now: songwriting, vocals, remixes, or timing? #LVRSRadio

📡 LVRS R&B RADAR OUT — 9/4 🎵 Daley ft. Marsha—Headlights 🎵 Lucky Daye—Fly U Out (ALL DAYE) 🎵 Omar—Much Love… Remix 💿 Beyoncé—B’DAY 20th Deluxe 💿 Boyz II Men—Fall In My Feelings 💿 Marques Anthony—A-List Lover 💿 HALLEY—Born With Love Pt. 1 UP 💿 Daley—Strange Nature 9/18

This is how grief, moral outrage, psychiatric misunderstanding, and a deeply divided jury can distort what a mistrial actually means.

📡 VAULT OPEN: 💿 Beyoncé — B’DAY (20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition) 31 tracks. Nearly 2 hours. “MORNING DEW (DONK),” Pharrell vault cut “CAN I WATCH YOU,” Spanish reworks + more. 20 years later, B’DAY somehow just got bigger. What’s the best new addition? 🐝 #LVRSRadio

📡 ANNIVERSARY SPIN: 💿 Beverlei Brown — Next to You turns 25 today. A warm UK soul record that never gets mentioned enough in 2000s R&B conversations. If you like polished vocals, live-feeling grooves + grown soul, start with “Part Time Lover” or “Love You Yes.” 🎧#LVRSRadio

📡 R&B RADAR: Tank said R&B Money was his final album. Four years later, he’s back. 💿 EXPERIENCE arrives 9/25—and he’s stretching into house, gospel + even country. At 30 years in, I’d rather hear an R&B veteran experiment than protect the formula. 🎧 #LVRSRadio
