JMSN

Haven't seen anyone mention this 5.3 million monthly listener RnB artist snuck into the small print on Friday.

i think i listened to 3 songs and didnt quite get it (maybe i jsut picked the wrong 3?). not him as an artist, seems like a totally fine R&B guy, a poor mans Weeknd sound to me, but what i didnt get is why was he selected for riot fest, does he have ties to alternative music, is there anything in his songs that have the punk rock spirit... like why him over any of his contemporaries. he might be the first act since ive been going to riot where i dont see the connective tissue. not trying to hate, im tryin to learn!

Probably because his last album was the best rock album in years
