Marques Houston is back in R&B after a two-year break with his new single “Last Drop,” which is part of his upcoming album “The Best Worst Year Ever.” The romantic track interpolates Tevin Campbell’s “Can We Talk.”
Houston sings, “I wanna be the one that you call when you’re feeling low / I wanna be the one you can call on, girl, that’s for sure.”
“I wanted to get back to my nostalgic roots by paying homage to one of my favorite songs of all time, ‘Can We Talk’ by Tevin Campbell,” said Houston about making the new track. “I love the way that song makes me feel and the power it has to take me back to a moment of my many crushes as a teen. I wanted to create a rendition of the song and make it today’s generation’s soundtrack for their crushes.”
“Last Drop” was co-written by Houston and Ryan Hirt, with Jeffrey Toney on production. The song’s video pays homage to classic R&B visuals, featuring scenes of Houston dancing and singing in the rain.
“Last Drop” is Houston’s latest release after “Admit It” in January. It will be included in his upcoming album, which will be released later this year. He is also expected to announce a headlining tour soon.
Marques Houston’s latest project follows his 2022 EP, ME: Dark Water, which featured collaborations with Ray J and Monteco. With his new single, “Last Drop,” Houston aims to recapture the excitement he once generated as a member of the 1990s boy band Immature, later known as IMx.
This new single, released via Phoenix Music Group, signifies his comeback to the music scene. Check out Marques Houston’s new song “Last Drop” and watch the official video today.
