For several years, it felt like hip-hop and pop were the chart-topping genres getting all the love with R&B slowing fading into the shadows — though it has made quite the resurgence. Artists like Summer Walker, Ari Lennox, Miguel, Yebba, Pink Sweat$, and so many more have worked to bring back that old-school vibe to music. On top of that, Giveon, a contemporary R&B artist, has had quite an explosive breakout career.
The California native appeared on the record "Chicago Freestyle" off of Drake's 2020 mixtape, "Dark Lane Demo Tapes," and was also featured on Justin Bieber's hit song "Peaches" alongside Daniel Caesar — landing him his first No.1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. "For everyone else, it kind of felt like it was overnight," Giveon told Rolling Stone, adding, "But for me, I put years in."
