Open (Remix)

If you didn’t know by now, I’m an R&B thug! Yeah, I admit it.  Don’t get me wrong, I love a multitude of genres in the music sphere (Hip-Hop, Jazz, Pop and everything else in between).  It’s just that soulful sounds have the uncanny ability to take me into a higher dimension filled with colorful ideas. Shit, I don’t even really listen to rap while I’m working out. A sentimental R&B jam invigorates me harder than, let’s say, a boisterous DMX banger, because all I’m thinking about is…*clears throat * (nah, mean). Such a beautiful juxtaposition right?

In any case, one of my favorite smooth cuts right now comes from a rising singer based in Toronto named Dylan Sinclair. The talented 21-year-old newcomer linked up with fellow Spotify 2023 R&B Artists To Watch crooners Destin Conrad & JVCK JAMES to deliver a head-bobbing remix for his standout single “Open,” which is found on Sinclair’s breakout EP, No Longer In The Suburbs (Deluxe).

“This new ‘Open’ remix for me was about collaborating with two of my favorite up-and-coming artists who inspire me,” says Dylan in an interview with Rated R&B. “Destin being from LA and Jack being from London, this track is just about having fun and making something that gets people moving.”
