Love.Jones - Vinyle Splatter

Description

R&B duo THEY. - consisting of songwriter Drew Love and producer Dante Jones - has spent nearly a decade developing a smooth and innovative sound. In the beginning, it was simple: two artists aligning over an appreciation for 90s R&B, New Jack Swing, and the heyday of soul-sample hip-hop. Jones made the beats and Love wrote the words, a basic, balanced and open setup, free from the expectations of major labels (which they felt on their 2017 album Nü Religion: Hyena) and high-level collaborations. The hindsight and fresh perspective after signing to Secretly-affiliated label drink sum wtr allowed them to take a step back and reflect on THEY.’s next step. The answer is LOVE.JONES. Here, the duo unleashes a brand new energy by re-affirming their artistry in its most potent and pure form, just Love and Jones, making burning, sensual music indebted to the golden age of neo-soul. Refined and reinvented, THEY. have arrived at their boldest work yet, a rich and energetic collection celebrating Black art and culture as well as “the intense feelings of Black love.” Pressed on splatter vinyl.
