A dancehall newcomer gently (and lewdly) masters the art of love

Kranium is a romantic, but his idea of date night lasts until long after the sun comes up. On shimmering sex jam "Stamina.."., he calmly brags about having that titular stuff; then he proves it by delivering 40 minutes of soft-dancehall ecstasy that reimagines the lewd, spacious R&B of The-Dream with a Jamaican twist. "Nobody Has to Know" pairs nursery rhyme lilt with a call for down-low hookups, and though the lovemaking in "Moonlight" is as public as possible, the drifting synths and gentle vocals make it feel quite intimate indeed.
