SiR [2024] - HEAVY [Top Dawg Entertainment] (Full Album)

SiR is singer/songwriter Darryl Farris out of Inglewood, CA, who debuted with "Seven Sundays" in 2015. Since his third and last album, "Chasing Summer" (Aug '19), he has been self-medicating from depression but is back after rehab with his fourth album "HEAVY" today. The 37 yr old states that the latest album is "as personal as I’ll ever get in my music".

Farris is from a musical family, his mother was a backing singer for Chaka Khan, Michael Jackson and Anita Baker and his bothers are rapper D Smoke and R&B singer Davion Farris

He has written songs with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Jill Scott, Anita Baker, Robert Glasper, Tyrese since he began his career. His writing credits can also be found on recordings by Ledisi, Alicia Keys, Anderson .Paak, Alex Isley and Joyce Wrice to name a few.

His only previous appearance on these pages was on a collaboration with Robert Glasper and Alex Isley, "Back To Love", for which he received a Grammy nomination at this year's awards. On that post we referred to his cover of The Isley's "Footsteps In The Dark" (Nov '20)

Our choice cut is "Poetry In Motion" which features Anderson .Paak. A few other tracks worthy of highlighting include: "You", "Only Human", "Nothing Even Matters" (single from Sep '22) and "Tryin' My Hardest". Hip-hop and R&B lovers may choose different tracks but these are our choices from a soul listener perspective.

It is also worth noting that the current digital price for the whole album on Amazon is a mere £5.49.

You can read an interview with SiR talking about the new album on Grammy.com posted only yesterday.
