R&Cs: Let You Love Me

Word on streets Twitter is Rita Ora’s “Let Me Love You” is her biggest hit to date. Well done. It’s been a long road for Rita (remember her Roc Nation days?) and it’s encouraging to see decent artists like her (#noshade) push on and eventually succeed. The meatiest part of this playlist is loaded with African flavors from Burundi to Zimbabwe. And we conclude with a few current favorites on the indie pop rock scene. Enjoy!

I wrote as kid. (I'd die if you'd ever get your hands on those poems.) And I wrote as a teen. (We thought our raps would spearhead revolution.) I write these days to share my joys and perspectives. I am as subjective as they come. I found a bunch of blessed souls that are just as expressive. And Africa is all the better for it. (I think I never really changed.)
