While I try my best to listen to a wide variety of new music across various genres, there are definitely songs and artists that I find myself favoring more often. And within those favorites, lies a handful of artists that have found a place in my heart with only a few projects out. I’m patiently waiting on releases from them and here’s a short list of artists that I’ve been hoping to see some more songs from soon. …Real soon.
Sunday Moon
The first thing that comes to my head when I think about this topic— Sunday Moon. One of my current absolute favorites with only five songs, which is pretty crazy because in the past year that I’ve been following them, they’ve released three out of those five songs. With that said, it’s a super nice feeling when they do release a single because it adds to the mystery and the completion of their sound profile. Comprised of two or three persons, singer Sarah Lee and the group brings a nice air of a peaceful, yet melancholy mood, and paired with Sarah’s enticing voice, it’s really nice, check them out, forreal.

Chance The Rapper
Chancellor Bennet, better known as Chance (the Rapper,) has been relatively quiet since his 2016 Grammy award winning album Coloring Book. Other than a handful of features and a couple of glimpses into what possibly seem like singles to his upcoming album Good Ass Job— which has yet to be confirmed— Mr. Bennet has stayed low-key in the music scene. The reason being that the young Chicago independent rapper has claimed to take a break from music and society to read his Bible, and as controversial as the topic is, it’s definitely admirable of him to do so, making sure he still has his personal values and priorities concrete.
Go Chance.

Samm Henshaw
Has a sound quite similar to Chance who was listed above, but with more choral and singing elements involved. Spanning his discography for a little over two years, the young Londoner still manages to impress with fun and outgoing music that seems cleverly cheerful. Samm has also been working with a range of interesting artists such as EARTHGANG and a few DJ’s and such. Some of them seem like unlikely features, but surprisingly, Samm blends with them effectively; showing that his music is capable of adapting and evolving. His music is really feel-good, and fits well for a late afternoon cruise on the road.
Bruno Major
I feel like British artists are blowing up in the music scene recently, and I can always back that statement up with artists like Bruno Major, Tom Misch, Lianne La Havas, and a myriad of others.
Acoustic R&B singer-songwriter Bruno Major has begun to release music again after his acclaimed album, A Song For Every Moon. Additionally, while working on a possible new project, Bruno has also announced his North American tour, (which he weaved Texas altogether) and although not much is confirmed on upcoming releases, its definitely something to hope for. Come to Dallas plz bruno.

Daniel Caesar
Pretty self explanatory, I’m dying to see what Daniel Caesar’s music will be like after being influenced by his rising popularity and successes. No news of upcoming content or activities, Caesar plays the silence in staying relatively stealthy in his agendas. Nevertheless, I’m excited to see what Daniel Caesar has in store following his brilliant breakout album Freudian.
