Kenyon Dixon Drops ‘The R&B You Love: For The 99s & 00s’

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end.

On Friday, August 9, Watts, California’s own Kenyon Dixon released the final installment of his critically acclaimed, GRAMMY-nominated series “Lucky”, The R&B You Love. The concluding chapter, The R&B You Love: For the ’99 and 2000s includes seven new tracks and features a guest appearance from RL. As the EP’s title suggests, the project is rich with influences from 1990s and early 2000s R&B.

Songs like “Run It Back” offer a fresh twist on 112’s “Peaches & Cream” while “Good Love” pays homage to the legendary Anita Baker. Through it all, Kenyon Dixon’s winding vocals and soulful style ensure each track stands apart from their classic inspirations.

“This project is the final installment to The R&B You Love series. It’s my ode to the R&B that has inspired us all throughout the years,” Dixon said about the project.

“My main goal with everything related to this series was just to remind everybody that the feeling didn’t die. There is, still, and will always be a space for the R&B that we love.”

The release of The R&B You Love: For the ’99 and 2000s sets the stage for the Cape Town To Cairo Tour. Beginning July 31, Dixon will perform in support of PJ Morton. The duo plans to make stops in Detroit, Dallas, Chandler, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Vancouver Oakland, and Seattle.
