Durham, North Carolina artist BeMyFiasco has dropped off a new project, titled Pretty Little Love. After releasing her potent debut album Where I Left You in 2021, she's helped longtime collaborator Phonte with music for the second season of IFC's sketch-coimedy series 'Sherman's Showcase' and contributed guest vocals and songwriting to albums from the likes of Rapper Big Pooh, Oddisee and Lalah Hathaway. Now, the Durham-based R&B and soul artist returns with her vibrant follow-up Pretty Little Love, an eight-track journey through themes of love, lust, and self-discovery featuring lively, catchy production and smooth, breezy vocals.
Pretty Little Love presents a soothing, lush set of songs that incorporate soulful R&B elements alongside flourishes of house, hip-hop, and more. "Free", featuring Katori Walker, is a soaring, graceful song which utilizes weaving guitars, shimmering grooves, and elegant vocals to conjure a cathartic feeling. The airy, rich tones and captivating, sleek vocals of "In My Garden", featuring Carlitta Durand, make for a truly refreshing listen, equipped with organic-sounding acoustic touches to give the project added dynamics. Closer "Festival" is a glowing, warm song that feels intimate throughout, with angelic vocals from BeMyFiasco alongside a introspective, thought-provoking verse from Phonte.
BeMyFiasco's new project Pretty Little Love is a poignant, focused offering that consistently brings forth laid-back, hypnotic alternative R&B tracks containing vital energy and vibrance.
