Lauren Jauregui has me shooketh with this new EP. I like her previous materials but never thought she'd be such a great fit for R&B. "On Guard" really reminds me of Dangerously in Love Beyonce.

[back2blk]

Oh I got another perfect rankin.

Go R&ME!! Lol

[wrip]

Summer Rain out at #13, what??!! Leon and Jazmine have beautiful voices and work so well together here. I thought it was top 5 locked.

1 3 4 5 6 7 8 14 15 18, ideally any of my top ten wins

Aiyana-Lee comes from a rich line of music makers. Her grandfather was soul legend Jimmy Ruffin; her uncle, David Ruffin of the Temptations; and her parents were multi-platinum songwriters and producers in the UK for numerous groups (most notably UK boy band Blue). At just 20 years old, she's now the latest discovery of infamous record exec L.A. Reid and signed to his HITCO label. Gangster of Love is the lead single from her debut album, Wednesday's Child, scheduled to drop on February 11th; it’s currently #21 on the R&B radio chart.

[Ty]

I like this girl. Didn't know she comes from a family of musicians...Hitco didn't do much for Dinah-Jane nor The Bonfyre commercially, so idk about her career prospect, but I think this song could be a nice Urban/R&B hit for her at the very least.

Muni Long's bottom-5 streak is finally broken as Hrs and Hrs marks her highest showing in this series yet; both Sneaky Link and Offended finished at #22 in previous months. This song, currently top-20 on Apple Music's R&B chart, is taken from her third EP, Public Displays of Affection, out now.

Took a risk and gave Aiyana a high ranking. Don’t wanna be so predictable

Be Alive is the Critics' Choice, Hollywood Critics Association, Satellite Awards, and Golden Globe-nominated theme bestowed by Beyoncé upon King Richard, the 2021 biographical film about tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams' father Richard Williams.

[kimberly]

I still need to watch the movie. I think this song worked great in the trailer, but I'm not sold on it as a song fully (yet). Beyoncé is my #1 so I still appreciate the crumbs she gives us.

#4 has the HIGHEST SD with an even amount of #1 and #20 rankings (yes, more than one each). It missed out on the top-3 by a mere 3 points.

[back2blk]

I think for the movie it was cute.

Imma call it cute cause she just gave me a perfect ranking.

No Love was the runaway fan favorite upon the release of Still Over It last month. Unlike Ex for a Reason in last month's rankdown, the combo of Summer and Solana was not powerful enough to pull off a top-3 finish!
