Calling all lovers—this week’s releases in R&B is all for you.
Coco Jones kicked things off nicely by summoning Justin Timberlake’s R&B tether back into orbit with the highly-anticipated “ICU” remix. Mahalia has unveiled her long-awaited sophomore album while rising stars like Mack Keane, ASTN, Lehla Samia, Idman, William Singe, and Debbie add their own flair into the R&B melting pot of new singles and full-length projects.
This New Music Friday (July 14), the industry veteran joined the up-and-comer on her “ICU (Remix),” which is already racking up streams. As Billboard reports, Jones’ original version was the second single from her What I Didn’t Tell You EP, which arrived last year. It marked the multi-talent’s first entry on the Hot 100 chart, landing her a spot at No. 63. With Timberlake’s help on this new cut, it’s sure to only help boost Jones to new levels of success.
Before sharing the collaboration today, the Southern singers used social media to tease the prospect of working together. It began with Jones’ ’90s boy band collage on Twitter on Monday (July 10), and she later confirmed the exciting news during an interview at the ESPY Awards on Wednesday. “He’s such a legend and he really supports me, so I’m really really happy to have this collaboration,” the Bel-Air actress raved of working with Timberlake.
