Bryson Tiller — “Inhale”

It’s been three long years since Bryson Tiller‘s 2017 album True To Self and today the mystical R&B singer makes his return with “Inhale.” The song takes a little from Mary J. Blige’s “Not Gon’ Cry” and a little from SWV’s “All Night Long” to create a sexy groove that has Tiller singing about missing his ex. Based on the excitement of Twitter when the song dropped on Friday (September 4) at midnight, it’s clear fans are certainly pumped for a new wave of Bryson Tiller slow jams to be released and the Grammy award-nominated singer promises that something for is coming just in time for cuffing season this fall.
