Sunday Night Soul [Vol. 52]

After a nearly three year long hiatus, last week we decided to finally revive one of our favorite series here at The Music Ninja. In case you missed it, or if you’re new around these parts, Sunday Night Soul is a weekly series focused around bringing you the best in R&B from around the web to help you wind down at the end of your weekend. This time around, we’re also making the playlists available on SoundCloud and Spotify, so remember to follow us on both platforms if you don’t want to miss out!

By the way, this week I guest curated the latest episode of Music Ninja Radio. If you’d like a little bonus edition of Sunday Night Soul, check out the archive here, featuring new singles from Kali Uchis, Sabrina Claudio, Alina Baraz, ODIE and more. Also, make sure to tune in live every Friday from 4-6 PM PST!
