New R&B Friday September 11, 2026: Mac Ayres, VEDO and Four More Picks

“Please Come Home,” “nobody else matters,” “Both Of Us” and “Safe” artwork.

New R&B Friday September 11, 2026 brings six fresh selections into one weekend listening session. Mac Ayres and CARRTOONS lead the set, with Ovi Wood, Nic Dean, Andye and Savannah Ré, VEDO, and FKJ and Labrinth following. The selection moves between solo releases and collaborations, with room for R&B’s overlap with alternative music. These songs arrived September 9–11, so this is a look at the week’s new music rather than only Friday’s releases.

Mac Ayres — “Please Come Home (feat. CARRTOONS)”

Mac Ayres teams with featured guest CARRTOONS on “Please Come Home,” released September 9. It is the longest single in this six-song set, leaving room to settle in.

Ovi Wood — “nobody else matters”

Ovi Wood’s “nobody else matters” arrives September 11. Apple Music places it among the week’s R&B selections; use this standalone single as an introduction to his current work.

Nic Dean — “Both Of Us”

Nic Dean offers “Both Of Us” in a two-track single release dated September 11. This selection is the original recording; the companion sped-up version is a separate track.

Andye & Savannah Ré — “Safe”

Andye and Savannah Ré share the lead credit on “Safe,” released September 11. The duet gives this week’s set another vocal partnership alongside the solo selections.

VEDO — “Wassup (Ouu Girl)”

VEDO returns with “Wassup (Ouu Girl),” a September 11 single that runs under two and a half minutes. It keeps the sequence compact before the closing collaboration.

FKJ & Labrinth — “Little Little Voice”

FKJ and Labrinth close with “Little Little Voice” from Tyber. Apple Music includes the September 10 track in its R&B discovery selection, alongside its Alternative catalog classification.
