Like its stylistic cousin hip-hop, R&B has some major overlap with modern pop—at times, the charts are virtually indistinguishable from one another. Put another way, the biggest R&B songs are often the biggest songs in any genre, period. Whether you call it crossover R&B, pop&B, or something else entirely, this is where you’ll find its hugest new chart smashes, updated every week. We always keep this playlist refreshed with the latest tunes. If you like something, add it to your library.

From the sensitive stomp of “Girls” to the lively momentum of “Kissing Strangers”, Vetta Borne (née Maribelle Añes) sparks many a dance move with the smooth blend of soul, R&B, and pop that empowers her bittersweet bops. It’s no surprise, then, that the queer Filipino Australian singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist favors a personal playlist brimming with slinky slow burns about getting it right, funky pick-me-ups for those times it goes wrong, and outrageous odes to <i>not</i> going back for more—as well as a formative choice pick from her idol, Janet Jackson. “Here’s a selection of songs for my hot, healing and grown baddies!” Vetta happily confirmed to Apple Music. Handpicked in celebration of Sydney WorldPride, read on for more on her top picks. <b>“Wasn’t It Good”, Vetta Borne</b> “Of course I had to add in my latest release, from my latest EP, to set the mood. This song is about looking back over a past relationship, finally being at peace with it ending and going your separate ways.” <b>“Ex For a Reason”, Summer Walker, JT & City Girls </b> “Note to self: ‘That bitch your ex for a reason, though.’ Sometimes you need that reminder; that the person you’ve been getting over really isn’t worth overthinking. Move on for the better, babes.” <b>“Girl”, The Internet (feat. KAYTRANADA)</b> “I think everybody with a girlfriend dreams about saying the line, ‘Tell ’em you’re my girl/And anything you want is yours!’ That’s some superstar, powerful, boss shit.” <b>“Rope Burn”, Janet Jackson</b> “I remember the first time I heard this song, I had an iPod Shuffle, and this was the only song I had on it for about a week. Until I discovered LimeWire. I have zero regrets listening to this on repeat. It makes me feel so hot and like the sexy main character wherever I go. It’s definitely my go-to when I’m feeling down and need to feel myself again.” <b>“Nights Like This”, Kehlani (feat. Ty Dolla $ign)</b> “Every now and then I find myself reflecting over the good parts of old relationships. Something reminds me of a specific moment and I’ll be like, ‘Damn...I can’t believe it ended that way.’ This song brings that feeling back: ‘If I called/Would you pick it up?’ Probably not, but sometimes I wish it ended differently.” <b>“Do Better”, Baby Tate</b> “‘So many men could do what he couldn’t do/I even know some girls that could do it too.’ Need I say more? It’s time to realize you are so deserving of everything good in life. Never settle for somebody who doesn’t mind hurting you.” The artwork above was created in collaboration with Dja Dja Wurrung and Yorta Yorta artist ENOKi.

Good R&B can be balm for the soul. Here's a playlist of new and contemporary stuff highlighting the mellower, more acoustic side of the sound: some retro, some progressive, some ballads, some with just a slight bump in the beat. Tracks here change regularly, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
