After being featured here on Earmilk several times and becoming somewhat of a staple in our R&B section, it's a privilege to premiere Michael Francis' newest song "Enlightened Ignorance". The Jersey crooner proved he can easily handle his own over various styles of production such as "Pony 2012", Francis' seductive cover of Ginuwine's classic hit, and "Our Rendezvous", a R&B reworking of Kendrick Lamar's Scoop DeVille produced cut "The Recipe".

[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/44912406" iframe="true" /]

Francis' latest track is a departure from his smooth and more traditional R&B songs. Produced by past collaborator Cito On the Beat (same producer of "Pony 2012"), "Enlightened Ignorance" features Francis showing off his rapping skills as he drops two verses and showcases his vocals on the hook. Like I've said before, Michael Francis isn't your average run of the mill R&B singer. The guy is versatile. Stream the song and request a secret download link here.

If you're looking for more music from Michael Francis follow the link below to request an advanced copy of his upcoming LP Cold Heart Chronicles.
