"Meet Me in Amsterdam"

RINI, with his voice, like molten dark chocolate, is here to caress your ears.
So, I stumbled upon this song courtesy YouTube recommendations (forever grateful to their algorithms), and he had my attention with the first few seconds, with the first few chords. And then rolled in his vocals - slow, soft and sweet. The sound is very classy - chilled out but stylized, just what I like. 

The bridge is what makes this song for me - 
"Won't you come closer, let it take over. I don't need anything, I just want you."

Another absolute favourite line for me is -
"When she smiles, my knees go weak."

Other RINI recommendations-

1. Lay you down - Strongly recommended

2. My Favourite Clothes - Again, strongly recommended. You can count on Rini to feed your RnB soul. Recommended even if RnB is not your thing.

"I'll leave it in your room, my favourite clothes and you can wear them out, if you want
But just in case you miss the way I smell, it'll just be there." <3

"Problem With You"

Sabrina Claudio.

A 23 year old, Contemporary R&B, Pop music artist. 

Creating mesmerizing content. (Makes me wonder what I was doing when I was 23? Reading Harrison probably)

Song - Problem With You 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGAh3IGDCeA

The kind of melody and emotion that transports you, making you feel the same. 

May be you will sing this to your ex/ your crush/ your non existent boyfriend (haha), doesn't matter. 

When she sings, "The problem with you is, that you're all that I dream about..." , you will feel that too.

Also, how stunning does she look in this video!

I want to point out these lyrics-

"Let's talk about last night, you went to sleep

Didn't even talk to me

You left me with questions, agonizing

You bring out the worst in me"

Don't want to be sexist but this points out right to the feminine tendency of needing connection. You know, the whole "How could you sleep without even talking to me!"

I like how this was incorporated in the song. 

"Relatable" songs are the best, wouldn't you agree?

Dusk, i dont like dusk. I've never really resonated with it. I think its reminiscent of time that's coming to an end, time that will no more be. Quite melancholy. 
And so, here is-

DUSK TIME MELANCHOLY PLAYLIST

Based on - R&B, Jazz, Alt rock, Indie
Slow to fast, feeling melancholy to welcoming the night.

1. Oh Wonder - Livewire

The music video for this song is so adorable, heart warming, as is the song.
"And hold me when I put my heart in your hands
When I'm losing it all, when I'm wasting it all" 
Isn't this EVERYTHING anyone wants. 

2. Brahny - Paradise
Gorgeous synths with Brahny's falsetto... And an artistic music video to go with it. This song is about the imperfections of love.

3. Fkj - Vibin' out with (((O)))
This track will make you want to slow dance in the dusk light, almost converting the eerie to beautiful.

4. Shura - Touch
I LOVE this song to pieces, mainly for the soul stirring lyrics.
"If you get my name wrong
I won’t get pissed off Cause I wish I was somebody else"

So deep.

5. Raveena - Nectar
Really starting to appreciate the beauty of dusk at this moment, with this song...
And damn these lyrics, a work of art...
"Stretch marks on my thighs
Skin shades of the earth
Knots in my hair
Its real
Don't fear it"

6. Childish Gambino - Feels Like Summer
RnB with sorrow vibes, this song is about global warming (correct me if i am wrong).
"I'm hoping that this world will change
But it just seems the same
I know
Oh, I hope we change"

7. Kali Uchis  ft. Tyler, The Creator, Bootsy Collins - After The Storm
The groovy intro with Bootsy Collins' smooth talking is enough to get your attention and kiss the sour mood away.
"So if you need a hero 
Just look in the mirror 
No one's gonna save you now
So you better save yourself"

8. Honne & Izzy Bizu - Someone That Loves You
Welcoming the night life. Love the beats per minute of this song...
