R&B On the Rise: Ree by Lexi Saldana

With her smooth vocals and emotional lyrics, Canadian singer-songwriter Ree is an upcoming R&B artist based in London, Ontario. Her style of R&B is full of clean instrumentals, often with pianos and guitars accompanied by trap-style drums. Ree’s vocals can only be described as silky. Effortless riffs, stable vibratos, and serene rasp are all elements that are essential in an R&B vocal style. Alongside the technicalities of her sound, her lyrics often discuss struggles with love and heartache, done in a way that is not stereotypical and cliché but rather compelling. Her storytelling abilities can be heard throughout her songs, especially songs ‘Needy,’ ‘Lied To Me,’ and ‘Faded.’ 

Ree is an artist that flawlessly is able to provide structure, story, and proper emotional delivery in her songs—making her an artist on the rise.
