Got a taste for something new? Check out Flavor Waves and float in a wave of magic.

As we announced in The Renaissance Rundown #18 to conclude 2020, we are welcoming the Flavor Waves playlist to The Renaissance Project. Created and managed by R&B artist & playlist curator Taylor Gray, this is a separately managed, R&B-centric list that will have periodical updates (as of now, weekly) co-published by The Renaissance Project.

Welcoming Flavor Waves to the family will further diversify and improve the content we bring to you, the reader. You can find them on Instagram, Twitter, Spotify, Apple Music, and now on The Renaissance.
