Early on lauded as one of the most popular artists in her genre and still one of the most celebrated and emulated, Brandy returns triumphantly with her sixth studio album Two Eleven, to once again stand in the lane she carved into R&B music.
Sterling Simms is for grown folks; adults only. The Philadelphia born R&B singer's latest mixtape, Mary & Molly, is the soundtrack to the fast lane. Offering up a startling, wide-eyed peek into the steamy and sometimes scary world of fame, Mary & Molly feels like a sex-crazed haze, a raunchy emotional stupor fueled by the drugs this music is an ode to.
Another weekend has passed us so it's time for our regular Monday mixtape round-up. Last week saw a swarm of Hip-Hop goodness from the likes of Busta Rhymes, DJ Green Lantern and Styles P, plus London indie group The xx provided our alternative music fix with a stream of their upcoming album, whilst Lady Leshurr and Delilah each get one in for the girls with mixtape releases.
Catch up on all the goods below.
