Billboard Chart-topping Singer-Songwriter, J. BROWN Secures His 7th TOP 10 Billboard R&B Song With His Latest Single, "TRUE LOVE"…

Congratulations are in order, for rising star and Billboard chart-topping singer-songwriter, J. BROWN securing his 7th Billboard Top 10 single and his 8th Top 20 single on the Billboard R&B charts with his latest smash song, "TRUE LOVE."

"TRUE LOVE," the latest single by J. BROWN snags the 10th spot on this week's Billboard R&B charts, making it J. BROWN's 7th Top 10 Billboard R&B song in the last 5 years. This chart accomplishment also allows J. BROWN to celebrate his 8th Billboard Top 20 song on the charts.

"TRUE LOVE," a soul-stirring anthem of devotion and resilience. "Even if I'm the last man on the battlefield, I'll fight for True Love," J. Brown passionately declares. The track is a tribute to everyone who has ever stood tall for love—despite the odds, the wounds, and the battles. With gripping lyrics and undeniable passion, "True Love" reminds us all that love, in its purest form, is worth every struggle.

In 2024, J. BROWN scored (2) #1 Billboard R&B songs with "My Whole Heart" (spent three weeks at #1) and "If You Could See You," (which spent two weeks at #1). J. Brown recently released his highly anticipated third studio album, "JUST A MATTER OF TIME", to rave reviews. It is a masterful blend of soul, vulnerability, and raw emotion.


(VIDEO LINK) "TRUE LOVE" by J. BROWN

J. Brown reflects on his creative journey for this project: "I wanted to create an album where I was in a space of total creativity. When Carvin Haggins GRAMMY® Award winning Producer & Songwriter Will Smith, Jill Scott, and Musiq Soulchild called and suggested we get back in the studio, we dove deep into honest conversations in music—something I feel is missing in today's R&B. Together with Carvin and his team, TheRing, we spent seven months crafting the right concepts, tackling real-life topics, and capturing the essence of love, pain, and growth." "Are You Still Mad" explores universal relationship tension with heartfelt authenticity. With lyrics like "It's been eight days, I gave space, I hate to fight with you, can we call a truce?" the song captures the ebb and flow of love's emotional battles, resonating with anyone who has ever navigated the complexities of connection.

J. Brown also teamed up with the extraordinary Elijah Blake, a longtime collaborator, and producer, Roark Bailey. He has produced hits for Saweetie, Summer Walker, Kanye West, and Chris Brown, who brought him the poignant track "MAH DEAR." With its nostalgic undertones reminiscent of Sam Cooke, the song is a heartfelt homage to timeless soul, delivering a fresh and familiar sound. The album's title, "Just A Matter Of Time", wasn't a calculated choice but an organic revelation. "As the project came together, it became clear that this was a story of the highs and lows of love—a man's journey of wanting, finding, and sometimes losing it. Naming the album Just A Matter Of Time just felt right, and I promise it will resonate deeply with listeners."

With this new album, J. Brown invites fans to witness his evolution—not just as an artist, but as a man. "Just A Matter Of Time" is a soulful and heartfelt chronicle of love, growth, and resilience, promising to captivate listeners and cement J. Brown's place as a leading voice in modern R&B. Prepare to be moved to the perfect blend of sound from the past greats of Philadelphia International Records and the Motown movement.

Lalah Hathaway comments, "VANTABLACK was always the name of the project. I started reframing how I saw color, in terms of being the blackest I've ever been and even though I'm steeped in who I am, it doesn't exclude the other things that make up the sum of me. Similar to how all the music around me informs the black music that I create. So it's all a melting pot of all of me."

The VANTABLACK Era, was introduced to music lovers abroad with the release of the official single, "SO IN LOVE." The mid-tempo tune is already a certified Billboard R&B Top 20 song as it is currently #18 on the Billboard charts. ‘So In Love’ was written by Philip Beaudreau and I a couple years ago with the intention to pitch it, but we loved it so much and decided to sit with it for a while. I’ve recently added it to my show and it’s one of the most beloved pieces that we perform." ‘So In Love’ has such a vibe and like a lot of the work i do, it explores some of the more non traditional ideas about love, and self love. The video does this on a grand scale!", she adds.

The next early-offerings from "VANTABLACK" included the up-tempo and already fan-favorite song, "I AM". "I Am, I think people will be delighted to hear me with some tempo! I’m always trying to figure out how to apply these lush tones over dance music! How can i be featured on the subwoofer in your G Wagon? This is a 4 on the floor full of positive affirmation…I think i may have cracked the code!," shares Lalah. The third song to be released from the album was the sensual, "MOOD FOR YOU" featuring MC Lyte.

Lalah Hathaway just announced the upcoming VANTABLACK TOUR national tour, coming to a city near you. For additional information and tour dates, visit www.LalahHathaway.com.

"My Truth" delivered the powerful and former #1 Gospel song in the country, "Your World". The song went on to hold the #1 spot for 7 consecutive weeks. “Your World” reminds the listener of God’s sovereignty – a bop, intentionally upbeat, and happy. Jonathan McReynolds shares, “This song reflects my evolution and growth. I am not the same person I was when I wrote my first album. Now, I am secure enough to take more risks and remove any limits to my creativity. It’s God’s World, and we are just living in it!”

With the success of the "My Truth" album, Jonathan embarked on his national headlining "My Truth Tour." The tour became one of the most talked about tours of the spring. Jonathan would leave it all on the stage, night after night and city after city. In making sure to always give back, Jonathan partnered with Compassion International, a child sponsorship and Christian humanitarian aid organization that aims to positively influence the long-term development of children globally who live in poverty. "I am truly thankful for the year that I have just had. I always love and appreciate "album years", as it allows for me to go into the world with a specific theme and new message to touch the fans." "I am already looking forward to 2024 and start the creative process for another album," shares Jonathan.

As an author, McReynolds’ first book, “Make Room: Finding Where Faith Fits,” draws on testimonies in scripture and from personal experiences to invite readers to make room for God in every area of life. Jonathan is in the process of adding finishing touches to his sophomore book, to be released in 2024, under his new publishing deal with W. Publishing. Also in 2024, Jonathan McReynolds will add the title of Professor to his hyphenate, as he will teach a "Christians In Culture," course at The Moody Theological Seminary.

I am very proud to be with The SRG/ILS Group, a company that is run by a real musician who understands the needs of artists that have been overlooked for years, laments Chaka Khan.

ABOUT CHAKA KHAN

Her legendary career jump started when Stevie Wonder penned the now classic “Tell Me Something Good” for Chaka when she was lead singer of the R&B, Funk band Rufus in 1974. Both the song and the album, Rags To Rufus, topped the charts, were certified Gold and won the Grammy that year for Best R&B Vocal Performance.

After six albums with Rufus nearly all of which went Gold or Platinum, in 1978 Chaka Khan started her solo career releasing the all-time classic “I’m Every Woman” (Ashford and Simpson). Produced by iconic songwriter, arranger, producer, and executive Arif Mardin, the single and the album, Chaka, cemented Chaka Kahn as a force that was about to take over popular music.

After incredible success both solo and collaborative, in 1984 Chaka released the iconic album I Feel For You. The title track, a cover of a Prince song, was a gigantic pop hit on the radio and MTV and earned Chaka her second Grammy Award as a solo artist for Best R&B Vocal Performance. Alongside being a top selling chart topper, the song made history by being the first R&B song to feature a rap which was performed by Grand Master Melle Mel. That kind of forward thinking always kept Chaka Khan one step ahead of and praised by her peers. The late, great Miles Davis often said, “She [Chaka] sings like my horn.” And the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin said, “[Chaka] is a one- of- a -kind, premier vocalist.”

Alongside the hit albums and singles, Chaka Khan has appeared on stage and screen in such standout productions as The Blue Brothers movie, The Color Purple on Broadway, and Signed, Sealed, and Delivered a musical based on the music of her friend Stevie Wonder.

In 2022 the 10-time Grammy Award winner is about to chart a new path on all fronts of her record-breaking career. Chaka is continuing her hit making and chart-topping ways as she wraps up production of new music that is both contemporary and every bit classic Chaka Khan.

MIKE PHILLIPS RELEASES SINGLE “lift every voice and sing” in honor of juneteenth…

In commemoration of this year's annual Juneteenth celebration and it’s status as an official National Holiday, it was only fitting that Mike Phillips released his rendition of this classic song. "If we truly listen to this song and take heed to the words, it can be a road map to fairness and equality, which can only lead to a better America for everyone," mentions Mike Phillips. This powerful masterpiece was written by J. Rosamond Johnson and James Weldon Johnson and produced by Hamilton Hardin and arranged by Mike Phillips and Hamilton Hardin.

In June 2020 after an incident that caused NASCAR to take a close look at themselves and the imagery that surrounds the fans and events, Mike was invited to perform the National Anthem as he has done for dozens of NBA, NFL and NHL games over the years. What they did not expect was Mike with West Byrd accompanying him on piano extending the anthem to include snippets of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” also known as the Black National Anthem at the start and end of the iconic song. This peaceful act of defiance was quickly observed by black NASCAR fans around the country and shared on social media while many other fans were left scratching their heads wondering what they had just witnessed. "When I snuck the song into the NASCAR performance of the anthem, I was kind of outraged that the executives didn't recognize it. But, it served as the perfect educational moment about the existence of the song and the importance of it and its historical context," adds Mike.

Mike’s new project will be available July 8! In the meantime, take a listen to Lift Every Voice and Sing below!
