The best of new R&B
As big names like Beyoncé, Rihanna and Usher transition from being voices of the current generation to respected titans of a past era, new names have come to fill the space they are vacating in the realm of R&B.
From artists like Summer Walker and Brent Faiyaz to international voices like Ella Mai and Snoh Aalegra, the genre of R&B is currently a game of King of the Hill, with a different artist on top each week.
As new occupants of the beloved musical genre express their thoughts on relationships and love through their music, they have captivated a new generation. Check out some of their music on the Spectator’s new playlist.

Oludare is a fourth-year journalism student and this is his fifth semester on The Spectator. He likes watching basketball and is pretty mediocre at it, but that doesn't stop him from playing it. He has a small but growing record collection and believes Woody Harrelson is a style icon and national treasure -- fact not opinion.
