‘After Work Commute’
Michael Reaves What do you do after a long day of work? From wanting to get a drink or rushing home straight to your bed, the commute to these places should never be overlooked. For me, that’s where music is so valuable. It sets the mood for the next part of your evening, or helps you settle everything down to bring your day to a peaceful end.This playlist brings us back to traditional R&B featuring Jazmine Sullivan, Gallant, Mahalia, and many others. If you listen close, you will find subtle hints of nostalgic soul deep within the music. Intertwined is a good mixture of melodic upbeat tones from the likes of BROCKHAMPTOM & JVCK JAMES, The Weeknd, and more. This compilation provides the balance that you always needed after a long day.
Reaves is one of the original founders of New Fire Music. He grew up on artists such as Whitney Houston, Phife Dawg, Busta Rhymes, KRS One, and many others. Some of his favorite current artists include Burna Boy, IDK, and Snoh Aalegra. His goal and purpose as a curator is to continue to connect the dots between songs that the average listener may not notice. We appreciate his unique taste and dedication to finding new artists deep within a genre.
