Ah, bring on Midnight Heat ๐Ÿ•› ๐Ÿ”ฅ! Wait โ€“ it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot ๐Ÿฅต at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hiโ€ , ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 4th edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, ๐ŸŽต โ€œSextingโ€ by ๐ŸŽ™ Jahim.ย 

Jaheim, Appreciation Day [๐Ÿ“ท: Atlantic]โ€œFine wine, my kind of woman, mature / Text messaging each other more and more.โ€ Of course, the text messages that ๐ŸŽ™ Jaheim and his prospective woman are exchanging on ๐ŸŽต โ€œSextingโ€ (๐Ÿ’ฟ Appreciation Day, 2013) are not that innocent, Britney! Sexting is exactly how it sounds โ€“ sexual texting, including pics. After Ja encourages her, and sheโ€™s charmed, he asserts, โ€œThen she get up the nerve and be like, oh, what the hell / โ€˜Youโ€™ve got mail.โ€™โ€ That mail, of course ends up being NSFW โ€“ shocker!ย  The catchy, freaky chorus sums things up perfectly:

โ€œShe be sending pictures

She be saying I canโ€™t wait until Iโ€™m witโ€™cha

โ€ฆ Told her send your boy a photo
She be saying better make sure it’s a no show, thatโ€™s a no, no
Donโ€™t let your homegirl see what Iโ€™m sending back
Me and her be sexting, freaky, freaky texting.โ€

Bitmoji ImageHonestly, what more is there to be said? Jaheim is horny AF: โ€œGot me swerving, I got one hand on the wheel / The other one scrolling, tryna hold it down.โ€ Da-yum! Beyond the clear midnight heat, ๐ŸŽต โ€œSextingโ€ is incredibly entertaining, and well-produced (๐ŸŽ›๏ธ Jaheim, Kay Gee, Rob Lewis, Terence Abney, and Marcella Precise) with its dusty, soulful groove, rhythmic lines, keys, and that colorful bassy synth. Its suggestive without crossing too many lines.
