Every selection includes a verified playable Apple Music preview and a matching full-song link in the single player below.

Angie Stone — “Wish I Didn’t Miss You”

Stone turns absence into a deep-soul confession, riding a familiar groove without letting nostalgia soften the ache.

Heather Headley — “In My Mind”

Headley balances restraint and power as private hope becomes a carefully controlled declaration.

Musiq Soulchild — “Halfcrazy”

Musiq captures the uneasy space between friendship and romance with conversational phrasing and a restless pocket.

Jagged Edge — “Promise”

Close harmonies and a direct pledge give Jagged Edge’s ballad the confidence of a late-night standard.

Faith Evans — “Soon as I Get Home”

Faith Evans makes reunion feel urgent and intimate, using gospel-shaped warmth to carry every promise.

Tevin Campbell — “Can We Talk”

Campbell’s clean vocal control turns a simple introduction into one of 1990s R&B’s most enduring invitations.

Xscape — “Who Can I Run To”

Xscape’s stacked harmonies make trust, friendship, and romantic uncertainty feel inseparable.

Avant — “Read Your Mind”

Avant leans into quiet tension, stretching the groove while keeping the vocal focused and deliberate.

Carl Thomas — “Summer Rain”

Thomas lets the arrangement breathe, giving memory and desire room to settle instead of rushing the moment.

Jaheim — “Put That Woman First”

Jaheim closes the set with accountability, texture, and a reminder that grown love is measured by action.

The order gives each vocal room to land while moving from longing toward responsibility. Revisit the August 20 Grown and Sexy Slow Jams edition for another rotation-cleared mix, and keep Power 104.7 Baltimore | Power1047.com on after dark.
