Rising R&B Artist Adam Wilson Reveals Stunning New EP Awake

Rising R&B artist Adam Wilson has returned with his brand-new EP, Awake, a six-track collection of smooth, soulful R&B that captures the essence of what the genre is all about – strong, emotive vocals and stunning storytelling. Having already made an impression with previous projects Dear So & So and Dreams, the Chicago-born, LA-based artist looks set to continue his ascent in the R&B scene with this new release.

Playing violin since the age of four and finding his voice and picking up other instruments along the way, Adam has been involved in music his whole life. This lifelong experience is captured on Awake, which is entirely self-produced. The lead single “Uninvolved”, which provides one of the many highlights on the EP, showcases not only Adam’s polished production skills but also his captivating vocals and impressive songwriting abilities as he opens up about recognizing an unhealthy relationship, drawing on themes of self-realization and reflection. With an emotion-evoking piano over modern beats, the track recalls the likes of James Blake and Majid Jordan.

Speaking further on “Uninvolved”, Adam says, “I was living in NYC, and I walked through a random park and ran into someone that I was seeing with another man’s arm around her. I went back to my Brooklyn apartment distraught, and the song was produced and written within three hours. It all came so naturally.

“‘Uninvolved’ is about coming to a point of realizing that a relationship is no longer good for you. Being in a relationship, to me, is about growing together and encouraging each other’s best selves. This song is about self-worth and knowing that you deserve more in a relationship and that sometimes cutting things off is the best thing you can do for your health and happiness.”

With another impressive body of work under his belt, Adam is undoubtedly one to watch out for in the R&B scene. And with plans to keep new content coming, it’ll be exciting to see what’s next from this hugely talented artist. “Uninvolved” and the rest of Awake are available to buy/stream now on all platforms.

Nicki Minaj’s Hilarious Revelation, “Are We the Adults Now?” Sparks Social Media Frenzy

Nicki Minaj recently took to Twitter with a realization that has many laughing and nodding in agreement: “So, ummm….WE’RE the adults now? Goodness, 🫣 it all happened so fast. Do yall offer summer school? Night school?” Her tweet, a humorous yet relatable admission, quickly ignited a social media storm.

Fans of the “Pink Friday 2” artist, affectionately known as Barbz, were quick to share their thoughts. One fan wrote, “Girl I just stream blessings and continue moving forward,” while another added, “I’m too damn grown now & it’s kicking my behind slowly but surely. Working full time, completing my masters, paying my car payment. Nobody ever told me it comes this fast.”

However, not everyone was as understanding. Critics wasted no time in roasting Minaj for her seemingly delayed realization. “Nicki go to bed baby,” one bluntly stated. Others poked fun at her age, with comments like, “You been an adult for like 40 years😭” and “Baby you the new elderly.”

Defenders quickly came to her side, highlighting the unique challenges of adulthood, especially when juggling a high-profile career and motherhood. “Since yall wanna act all ignor@nt, imma explain! When you have a kid, and now you have someone you’re responsible for, it’s a different type of ‘Being an adult.’ It’ll dawn on you differently that you’re the adult now 😂,” one supporter explained.

Nicki’s tweet has clearly sparked a wide-ranging debate on what it means to grow up. Do you relate to her sentiments about the suddenness of adulthood, or are you still navigating that transition?
