R&B never stands still. Fresh sounds, surprise drops, and standout moments are always popping up—and in recent years, artists have tossed out the old rulebook of only releasing music on certain days. With new vibes arriving nonstop, keeping up with everything R&B can feel like a full-time job… even on your well-deserved weekend downtime.
And while the weather outside may be downright frigid, the music is doing its part to keep us warm. From slow-burning grooves to soul-soaked anthems, R&B is the perfect soundtrack to thaw out cold nights and cozy up your playlists.
We’ve got you covered with day-to-day updates on our socials, but we also know there’s something special about starting the week with a recap. So consider this your go-to roundup of the hottest new R&B tracks, visuals, moments, tours and music news from weekends past (and a little beyond)—all in one place, all vibes, no frost.
Welcome to R&B Rewind- your top-of-week catch-up on What You May Have Missed.
