They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, but for fans of musicians who take their sweet time in between projects, that fondness oftentimes seems to evolve into an excruciating longing for fresh sounds from their faves.
Whether it’s classic 90's artists who aren’t too fond of being in the spotlight like D’Angelo or contemporary stars like Frank Ocean who do the same, it’s undeniable that they’ve left a void in the music industry and it’s about time they come back to fill it.

Frank if you’re reading this, it’s not too late!
