October: 9 urban releases you need to hear this month
Mac Miller, Sinead Harnett, James Vincent McMorrow and more
JoJo feat Wiz Khalifa 'Fuck Apologies' (Atlantic Recordings)
The beginning of this record, which features Wiz Khalifa explaining the expletive-laden title, is enough to have us worried – and then, as JoJo’s vocal creeps in, we’re reminded that the former teen star took that voice right to the top in the mid-00s with platinum-selling releases. Alas, you don’t need to do a Miley to make yourself heard. Stop swearing and do the damn r’n’b pop thing, please.
