Last year, Beyoncé made a return for the ages with the astonishing ‘RENAISSANCE’, her seventh album. A euphoric collection that melded house, disco, bounce and more, in a review of the record here at NME we wrote that with it: “she’s added another remarkable record to her repertoire, this time one to continue leading the charge to bring Black culture back to the forefront of house and dance scenes.”
Earlier this month, the record was once again celebrated when Beyoncé won the Grammy for Best R&B Song for ‘CUFF IT’. On this week’s NME Radio roundup, we take a look at ‘CUFF IT’’s steamy new remix – one that goes above and beyond the call of a mere facelift, this time creating something new entirely. ‘CUFF IT (Wetter Remix)’ leads this week’s additions to the NME Radio playlist, alongside Lizzo and SZA joining forces on ‘Special’, and new tunes from Beabadoobe, Tove Lo and more.
Check out the newest additions to NME Radio 1 and 2 below:
On the A List:
Beyoncé
‘CUFF IT (Wetter Remix)’
Hot off her record-setting 32 Grammy wins, Beyoncé has dropped a remix for ‘CUFF IT’, the very song that won her the Best R&B Song at the 2023 awards. But make no mistake, her latest variation of ‘CUFF IT’ isn’t a mere remix. For the ‘Wetter Remix’, Beyoncé returned to the studio to record a whole new intro, more ad-libs and even re-recorded verses to make it a little more sensual to match the seductive remix’s mood.
