Solange delivers a homerun on A Seat at the Table. ‘Seat’ encompasses feelings, attitudes, and reality for black men and women. A socially-conscious gem.

Juicy J misses the mark on new single “Ballin,” featuring Kanye West. Despite spitting game and flexing, J sounds tired and uninspired.

New country artist Brett Young showcases incredible potential on “Sleep Without You.” Though not new conceptually, “Sleep” has the ingredients to be a hit.

Cashmere Cat has a potential hit on his hands with “Trust Nobody.” He gets superb results with the help of Tory Lanez and Selena Gomez.
