We experienced some technical difficulties earlier in the week but we are finally back with a new episode. On this SoulBack, we bring in R&B singer Sammie to talk to us about his new music including his single “Playlist”. We also talk to him about his early beginnings as well as some current topics in R&B right now including the Millennium tour and our love/hate relationship with Tank. We also talk about new music from the likes of Lucky Daye, Johnny Gill and Musiq Soulchild. We also talk about some Avant’s sudden weight loss.
