Babyface, the American R&B singer.

His track “Exceptional” is an R&B number released in 2015.

As expected, his beautiful vocals and the flowing rhythm make it a very pleasant song.

It has a slightly mature vibe, and its comfort feels stylish and even a bit luxurious.

Savor the relaxed, grown-up ease this song brings.

If possible, enjoy it with good audio equipment or quality headphones.

Here is the song that Ariana Grande released in 2013 featuring rapper Mac Miller.

It traces Big Pun’s 1998 R&B hit “Still Not a Player.” Her glossy, powerful voice lends the track a different hue and seems to add another kind of brilliance.

In addition, the contrast between Ariana’s voice and Mac’s voice and textures makes the song more complex.
