March 23, 2021 —Welcome back to Another Groove, our series dedicated to new music that is neither pure soul nor R&B but which contains elements of those genres and may please your ears. This week we feature the track “Heaven” by Yashua.
Yashua is a Dominican-American singer and songwriter who began releasing a series of singles in 2017 that quickly helped him to build a considerable fanbase. Although this early work trended toward dance, pop and reggaeton, his more recent releases veer into alt-R&B. Our featured track is a delicate ballad sung in English and Spanish amid dreamy production atmospherics that are reminiscent of Jhene Aiko. Enjoy.
