Ledisi, Quality Time | Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥

In the 79^th edition of Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥 (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Quality Time” by Ledisi featuring Butcher Brown.

Ah, bring on Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo-laden, and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. These risqué, unapologetic records often raise eyebrows and temperature alike. In the 79^th edition of Midnight Heat (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Quality Time” by Ledisi featuring Bucher Brown. 

Relatable to the nth degree, Ledisi (Ledisi Young).  “Quality Time” is the eighth track from the Grammy winner’s 2024 album, Good Life. Ledisi penned the record with Corey Fonville, DJ Harrison, Tennishu, Morgan Burrs, and Tish Hyman. Featured musician Butcher Brown produced it.  The musical accompaniment sets the tone with its smooth, soulful vibes.  Those vibes, rather, instruments, include lush keys 🎹 (DJ Harrison), robust bass line (Andrew Randazzo), rich guitar (Morgan Burrs), and sweet, anchoring drum groove (Corey Fonville).

The star of the show is Ledisi, who brings the heat consistently from start to finish.  Beyond the premier section of the song, the chorus, she wows with her nuanced vocals in the verses, pre-chorus, and bridge. Sometimes, she brings more of a legato approach melodically, while others, the melodies are more rhythmic.   The tunefulness and memorable nature of the lyrics are undisputed. “I used to think, love wasn’t a real thing / ‘Til I found you,” she sings in the first verse, and adds in the second, “Everything I feel with you’s divine and undefined /It will just be us two standing at the finish line.” Given their love, what do they need? Quality time, of course.  If you didn’t know, “Bodies explode on impact, on and on and forth and back, oh yes.” Ooh-la-la! The outro marks one of the biggest selling points of “Quality Time”, where Ledisi repeats the lyric with incredible sincerity, “I need more.” Ultimately, this is a sexy R&B ballad that more folks around the world need to hear and add to their sex playlist 😈.
