At b3sci, if there’s one thing we love it’s cheesy pop & b. Elle Varner’s “Only Wanna Give It To You” is a class example of that genre. With a melody that sounds ripped out of a late 90’s Brandy song and a heavy little 2 step beat, “Only Wanna” will no doubt get you and your boo hyped. Also….. the track’s got a J. Cole feature on it, and with the roll Jermaine’s been riding, that alone is reason to listen. Fortunately for Ms. Varner it’s not the only one.

If there’s one thing about Snoop Dogg… (it’s that our man is not afraid to experiment or jump something a little outside the “west coast sound”, collabs with Willie Nelson, Ian Carey, Mayer Hawthorne etc.) Whether it’s dough, weed, or both motivating C. Broadus to make some of these choices, that’s hard to really know. Snoop’s one of those guys (like Ludacris, etc) who can, at this point in his career, jump on just about anything and still keep his rep as one of the best to ever do it intact. Here, Snoop jumps on something else a little different, UK bass music. Teaming up with an impressive lineup of Brit MCs, Snoop holds his own despite playing on the home turf of P Money, D Double E, and Professor Green. Check the dub-inflected “Be Like Me” remix below.

Our #1 priority in life right now is to get to hang out with Rick Ross. Rozay if you’re reading tweet @ us. (@b3science). Here Mr. MMG grabs N. Minaj for a radio ready slow jam bomb. Imagining this is the music that accompanies Ross whenever he enters/leaves a room, that super exclusive party on South Beach (“You the Boss”), climbing on aboard Diddy’s yacht (“You the Boss”), exiting the grocery store (“You the Boss”). Ricky, “You the Boss”

“Hyacinth Girl” comes via The Eversons out of New Zealand. The track off their debut EP (which has found itself serious rotation here at B3HQ) showcases witty pop rock at it’s best. Be sure to check out the new Lucy Zee directed video below.

Soular Order is Manchester UK producer Jon Maynard. On his “A World Apart” EP, from which “Find Your Way” is excerpted, Maynard (whose roots are in dubstep and bass music) attempts to move away from the boundaries, barriers, and technical rigors of that music and into something more organic, something more visceral, more engaging. Give “Find Your Way” a spin below.

Thicke is back. Swagger intact, the smooth merchant delivers “Love After War”, the title track from his upcoming 5th LP. Our man Thicke on LP #5! Give it up one time for R. Thicke. OK, so how good is “Love After War”? It’s “pretty good”, it’s pretty standard Thicke, (which means this track will get any of our grown and sexy readers bodies movin’ on play one. We love you b3sci grown and sexy crowd!) For the not so grown and/or not so sexy, “Love After War” will make you feel like you are actually both those things and more.

Au Revoir Simone songstress Erika Spring just let loose a new remix for “6 More Weeks” by NY remix team Tezeo and we’re loving it. Tezeo’s blissed out mix leaves enough of the melody and the downbeats intact in the track to keep it just close enough to ground where you can still groove with it. Thumbs up.

Oh yeah, here comes some more of that smooth shit from b3sci favs When Saints Go Machine. “Yellow” opens with a simple repeated synth figure and opens up into a melody that will have your jaw nothing short of on the floor. Best make sure your floor is clean.
