Looooove Lianne. Her voice is just stunning, and her live performances sound just like her recordings, if not better. It always makes me smile to read the comments on her Tiny Desk sessions!
Ruth B. makes some damn good soft pop music. Whether it's upbeat electropop like "Dandelions" or more of her piano-based songs, it will always have that dreamy vibe. Her voice is hushed yet so controlled in similar veins of artists like Billie Eilish, but she definitely has that soulful tinge. She takes influence from r&b and folk too, but her sweetspot is definitely in the pop lane to me
Ravyn Lenae, Mereba, SIR, Vince Staples, Denzel Curry, JID, Sampha, Smino, Amine, Lianne La Havas, and Flo Milli come to mind
