SiR is on another level with this record and it may be his best.

Inglewood, California's own SiR has been wowing us over the past few months with two incredible singles. January's "NO EVIL" was the Top Dawg entertainer's first solo single in a year and a half and it floored us. Perhaps his most powerful performance of his career in terms of vocals, it was an homage to the legend D'Angelo. It is a song that still burns for us two months later. Then, he came back in February with "KARMA" featuring fellow labelmate Isaiah Rashad. It was about staring down their mistakes and dealing with the consequences to follow.

Both of these personal tracks certainly did an excellent job at promoting SiR's long-awaited project HEAVY. This is the R&B veteran's first record since 2019's Chasing Summer which boasted hits like "Hair Down," "John Redcorn," and "You Can't Save Me." In a recent interview with That Good Sh*t, SiR talked about the meaning behind HEAVY. "What I'm talking about is the heaviest. Yeah I mean it's the truth, on steroids," he explains.

"People need to hear it I think. As much as it might hurt or as much as it might take you somewhere you don't want to be, it's what you need," SiR adds. You are going to get a HEAVY dosage of those messages across the record, and they are rewarding experiences. The production is rich, lush, beautiful and hard-hitting. SiR is bringing dynamic performances as well and so far we are enjoying tracks like "I'M NOT PERFECT," "SIX WHOLE DAYS," and "YOU."
