Racy, velvety, and oozing sex appeal, "Tell Me" by Cautious Clay is lounge ready and begging for the girls in the little black dresses to come out and play.
The latest from the Proper Vibes tastemaker is the audio equivalent to cognac in a purple room -- it's trill, but has smooth saxophone dripping through the mids with guttural finesse. And with the flip, which comes with the sauntering beat and melody, the track doesn't shy away from bounce as it slinks like some mischievous cat in the dark.
In many ways, this song plays out like a romance in a Morris Chestnut film. It's familiar, but it's intoxicating the same way that the thought of oils, candles, and satin sheets should make you bite your lip. If this were the 1930s, this song would be labeled as "sin"; thankfully, we're in 2016.
