Since releasing his debut single, “Got It,” in 2017, FRVRFRIDAY (born Tommy Ruhingubugi) has merged expressive vocals with sleek soundscapes and thoughtful songwriting to become a veritable force in Canadian R&B. For “100 Rounds,” he grafts his lithe vocals onto acoustic guitar strings for an easygoing club anthem. On “Window Shopper,” he connects with Lil Baby for an understated playboy’s theme song. He can dive into earnest romance, too. On tracks like “Time for You,” he flutters through delicate strings for a rumination on all-consuming love. Blending stylish soundbeds with a supple voice and bits of emotionally transparent songwriting, FRVRFRIDAY laces the sonic chic of typically ambivalent R&B songs with the sincerity of someone who isn’t too cool to admit they’re in love.
