1. Ariana Grande, “Love Language”

💿 positions • 🏷 Republic • 📅 2020

“If you’re gonna keep speaking my love language / You can talk your shit all night / You the medication when I’m feeling anxious / That’s the kind of shit I like.” Ooh-la-la! 🎵 “Love language” is a groovy standout from 💿 positions, the surprise 2020 studio album from 🏆 Grammy-winning pop artist, 🎙 Ariana Grande. As sexy as the record is, this is a classy, throwback soulful cut, with some jazz sensibilities as well as soul and blue-eyed soul.  The most surprising occurrence in “Love language” happens at the end with an outro that seems to come out of nowhere, literally (“Your ex-girlfriend don’t want no smoke / I ain’t tryna sign no lease / I’m just gon’ make you my home”).

2. Queen Naija, “Love Language”

💿 missunderstood • 🏷 Capitol • 📅 2020

🎙 Queen Naija has some questions for you: “Can you read my love language / …When I need love and affection? / Could you read it when I need it?”  We bud, can you? 🎵 “Love Language” appears as the lucky-number-seventh track on her 2020 album, 💿 missunderstood, which debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200.  Prior to her questions on the chorus, Naija makes it crystal clear that he needs to be listening to her concerns: “I got a little attitude right now / I got a bone to pick with you right now / Need you to put your fuckin’ phone down / And meet me up in this room right now.” SHE’S NOT PLAYING.  Of course, she confronts him, tells him “You should practice what you preach,” while also highlighting the degree of pleasure (“No one’s ever got me wetter”). Woo! I’ll let the LOVE LANGUAGE speak for itself!

3. Kehlani, “Love Language”

💿 While We Wait • 🏷 Atlantic • 📅 2019

🏆 Grammy-nominated R&B artist 🎙 Kehlani decided to whet her audience’s palate in 2019 with the nine-track mixtape, 💿 While We Wait.  She caps off the project solidly with 🎵 “Love Language,” which fits this list perfectly for obvious reasons.  Here, ‘Lani desires to “Be fluent in your love language.” Sounds good to me.  She highlights her unfamiliarity on the pre-chorus (“It’s all foreign to me, I don’t speak what you speak / I’ll commit to learnin’ if you, if you / You’re a sweet fantasy…”), before confirming the wishes of her heart, sigh (“I know I don’t speak your language / But I wanna know more, baby”). Love Language indeed!
