It went down on Monday night, as DJ Carisma and Abby De La Rosa welcomed R&B vet Tank to “The Cookie Jar.” The singer-songwriter joined in the full-hour mixshow of the latest and hottest in R&B, as he spoke about his experience at the Super Bowl, his early upbringing in Milwaukee and career start singing background for Ginuwine and Aaliyah.
Tank gave big props to Drake, claiming the Young Money rapper has quietly helped bring R&B sensibilities back, discussed the new generation of R&B singers, and how he is kind of beginning to become a godfather in a sense. In a surprise move the “Compliments’ singer even brought his own cookie, hot out the oven, to the show, premiering the brand new TGT (Tyrese, Ginuwine, Tank) song, “Sex Never Felt Better.” In addition, Tank discussed his upcoming mixtape ‘High Piano Dreams.’
“I wanted to lead with my strength, me sitting down at the piano singing to ladies,” explained Tank. “We put a lot of different colors around the piano, we got a ‘trap piano,’ the bedtime piano, the emotional piano. It’s the pianos take on what this music should sound like.” The free-project is expected to be released on February 25!
