Mariah Carey, Erykah Badu, Kem and Jagged Edge anchor the Grown & Sexy Slow Jams set for August 31, 2026.

Grown and Sexy Slow Jams August 31, 2026 closes the month by letting longing set the pace. Tonight’s sequence begins in memory, moves through choices and vulnerability, and lands in the kind of commitment that only sounds convincing when the singer leaves room between the words.

Mariah Carey — “The Roof (Back in Time)”

Mariah Carey opens inside a rain-soaked memory, using soft phrasing and layered harmonies to make one night feel impossible to leave behind.

Erykah Badu — “Next Lifetime”

Erykah Badu turns attraction into a question of timing, balancing desire with the restraint of someone who understands the cost of acting on it.

Avant — “Separated”

Avant brings a breakup into sharp focus, moving between frustration and hurt without losing the melody’s late-night control.

Kem — “Love Calls”

Kem lets patience carry the record, delivering devotion with a warmth that feels more reassuring each time the hook returns.

Musiq Soulchild — “Love”

Musiq Soulchild strips away easy definitions and treats love as work, choice and faith rather than a word that explains itself.

Carl Thomas — “Emotional”

Carl Thomas gives uncertainty a polished edge, letting a vulnerable vocal ride over a groove built for reflection instead of confrontation.

Faith Evans — “Never Gonna Let You Go”

Faith Evans makes commitment sound expansive, lifting the set with a vocal that grows from tenderness into full-bodied assurance.

Jagged Edge — “Walked Outta Heaven”

Jagged Edge turns regret into a group confession, stacking harmonies around the realization that pride has left something valuable behind.

Xscape — “Understanding”

Xscape asks for honesty and communication, using close harmonies to make emotional clarity feel as urgent as romance.

Tevin Campbell — “Always in My Heart”

Tevin Campbell closes with a graceful promise, carrying the final minutes on a clear tenor and an arrangement that never needs to rush.

Tonight’s sequence travels from memory and temptation through separation, understanding and lasting commitment. Revisit the August 28 Grown & Sexy Slow Jams for another ten-song set, and keep Power 104.7 Baltimore | Power1047.com on after dark.
