The Top 100 Best R&B Songs of 2022 Presented by YouKnowIGotSoul X SoulInStereo
I’ve already put y’all on to the 50 best albums of 2022, but I’m not through yet! Let’s talk about these R&B hits!
As I mentioned in the Albums of the Year post, I wasn’t thrilled with many R&B projects this year. There were lots of solid albums, yeah, but few GREAT ones.
And you know me – I only associate with greatness, playa.
That doesn’t mean that we didn’t get great R&B songs on those same albums, though. While there was no absolute standout, there were dozens and dozens of great tracks from veteran hitmakers and newcomers alike.
Like we always do at this time, we’re gonna share them with you.
You should know how it goes by know:
I teamed up with my boys Tom and Kyle of YouKnowIGotSoul.com to nominate our picks for the best songs of the year. We combined our individual lists, ranked them, and put them all together into one big list.
Below you’ll find the best of the best.
Take a moment to check out our selections for the Top 100 R&B Songs of 2022. Click song title to listen, courtesy of the YKIGS gang. Enjoy, and I hope you find something new to love.
