On Our Radar: MBrown [@mbrownofficial_]

WHO: MBrown [@MBROWNOFFICIAL]

GENRE: Afro-R&B

WHERE: South East London

South East London native MBrown is known for his smooth, feel-good tracks. Fusing elements of Hip-Hop and Gospel, paired with smooth yearning vocals, MBrown’s catchy sound is at the cutting edge of the new wave of Afro-R&B artists who dare to experiment with blending genres and cultures. In his latest release titled ‘Area Codes’, he taps into the silky Afro Fusion sound to navigate his strong feelings for a beautiful girl who just happens to live in a different area. The MADEINPARRIS-produced track is a display of MBrown’s unique ability to create catchy melodies and fuse them with impressive lyrics that keep you listening. 

He is constantly pushing the boundaries of his musicality through his stellar lyricism and production. This is seen in his 2022 single ‘Island Love’, which has amassed over 42,000 views on YouTube and over 87,000 streams on Spotify. ‘Island Love’ explores the romance and fun that comes with young love. The accompanying sleek visuals directed by Spiro Digital go hand-in-hand with the track. If you’re a lover of R&B visuals from the early 2000s and the Disney Channel show ‘That’s So Raven’, you’ll enjoy the nostalgia the sleek visuals directed by Spiro Digital bring. 

With a string of singles under his belt and his debut EP titled ‘R’MB’ coming out on the 13th January, MBrown is starting as he wishes to continue with fresh, soulful, Afro-R&B sounds. 

He’s on our radar and he should be on yours!
