R&B

'Whatever' is but one of many moments in En Vogue's canon that show their gift of making music that stretches the limits of listeners' imaginations.

'Saturnz Barz (Spirit House)' is delightfully weird, addictive and promises that its parent record 'Humanz' will be yet another post-modern masterpiece―and head-scratcher―like the four albums that preceded it.

Jidenna's debut, 'The Chief', is a frustrating or rewarding listening experience, depending on the individual partaking in its offerings.

'True Sadness,' by the Avett Brothers, was nominated for a Grammy in the Americana category. What was the journey of its creation?

Tethered by her witty, idiosyncratic lyrics and scratchy, sweet vocals, Macy Gray's "Sexual Revolution" may have been too frothy for American radio at the time of its release, but it remains one of the finest singles released from the 2000s.

'Automaton' gives voice to the fact that Jamiroquai was, and still is, a prominent fixture in classic and contemporary dance and funk music.

'Love in Beats' (2017) is another solid effort from Omar Lye-Fook, affirming his position as one of the U.K.'s finest exports to espouse the sensuality and heart of R&B music.

In the wake of the singer's untimely death on December 25, 2016, critics, fans and the curious have delved back into George Michael's expansive catalog. Brash, fun and just a little bit rude, 'Freeek!' is one of George Michael's stickier urban-pop confections.

Falling in love is euphoria and terror. There is no other way to achieve its beauty and hope.

Beyond shining elements that defined Summer gems like “Bad Girls,” “Last Dance,” and “I Feel Love" lie many overlooked treasures.
