Okay, we all love the Weeknd, right? But we also agree that he doesn’t quite have the best voice R&B has to offer. Yes. So what happens when you take the producer behind the original Weeknd sound, Jeremy Rose (Zodiac), and you team him up with a singer of the highest caliber in Jesse Boykins III? Well, that would be “Come”, one of the most sensual songs you are ever going to hear. Zodiac’s self-titled EP, where this track will land, is due out Sept. 24 via Vase. [via]
In other news, it appears Jeremy Rose and Abel Tesfaye have squashed their beef. Here is a statement from management we snagged from Pitchfork:
“Fueled by a common vision they had about RnB and music in general, Jeremy and Abel worked closely for a short time about two years ago,” Rose’s rep wrote. “Miscommunication between both artists is currently in the final stages of being worked out by their respective management teams.”
Wicked track. Just seen that Jesse is playing at Jazz Cafe in London with Melo-X on October 21st! Should be sick. Here’s the FB event link. Get on it! https://www.facebook.com/events/181081662016525/permalink/181087182015973/?notif_t=lik
