Kieron’s R&B Mixtape Volume 1

Kieron's R&B Mixtape Vol. 1

Thanks to my addiction to Spotify I can now share my love for R&B with everyone :)

From now on I plan to compile a Mixtape of my favourite R&B tracks every month and share them on this blog. If you’re a R&B lover or music lover of any kind I really hope you enjoy it and you never know, you may just discover some new music.

The monthly compilations won’t feature any old tracks, it will be strictly current tracks from established as well as new and upcoming R&B artists. However as this is the first Mixtape I’ve cheated slightly and have featured some tracks from 2008. Not many, just a few from the likes of Madonna + Kanye West, Robin Thicke, Solange and Chris Brown. In contrast there is some bang up-to-date stuff from Brandy, Sterling Simms, Jamie Foxx, Rick Ross, Avant and the brilliant Jazmine Sullivan. All in all, there are 30 of what I think are the best R&B tracks around right now. Simply click on the image above to access my Mixtape - make sure you have Spotify open first.

Please leave your feedback in the comments section, let me know what you think of the Mixtape and feel free to leave suggestions of what you want to see on Volume 2 in February.

What I’m listening to right now: Ne-You - “She Got Her Own” Hard to believe but this is the actual remix of “Miss Independent“. More of a reworking than a remix, brilliant.

    Great mixtape, thank you. The kids dancing to it over dinner today…
    A couple of artists I’d never heard of so great way of introducing them.
    Kieron, do you have any invites left? I’d love to introduce a few friends to Spotify.
    Looking forward to next months already.

    Thanks Kieron, got those but it seems the rules have changed.
    I am getting the following error: Spotify free is not available in your country. Damn…
    Do you know of any UK proxies I could try setting up the accounts through?

  7. X-Factor Blog (8 comments.) says:

    Tried a couple of UK based web proxies but that doesn’t work either…
