It helps that the parent album has FINALLY(.mp3) been added to streaming now as an official release so we don’t have to rely on random bootleg uploads!In my list, this was probably the most recent discovery out of all picks. I did a discography binge a couple years ago and ended up finding Toni Braxton quite underrated, or at least her later material. "Sposed To Be" is an album track that immediately jumped out. It's peak icy R&B, the production is lush and exquisite, making me feel like I'm transported to a beach in the late evening, watching the sunset with someone I love by my side. My favorite detail is the high-pitched water drop like sample that regularly appears. Toni's smooth and delicate delivery is the cherry on top. All in all, it brings me warm memories of late Spring/Summer 2018, and this song has been a playlist staple ever since. I also mentally change the pronoun in the lyrics so I feel like I can connect with them fff
