Kevin Cossom - Love Thru The Speaker
Artist: Kevin Cossom
Producer: Bangladesh
Album: Untitled Debut
Label: N.A.R.S./RCA
Though being in a relationship with a heavyweight R&B singer often means not being able to see your significant other as often as you’d like, I imagine there’s a great deal of comfort in knowing that you need only turn on a radio for your guy or gal to be with you in spirit. Not to mention, if you close your eyes and turn it up loud, it’s almost like making Love Thru the Speakers—at least, that’s what Kevin Cossom claims on the latest single off his epically-delayed RCA Records debut, a jam created for the express purpose of keeping his girl satisfied while he’s away. Bangladesh takes charge behind the boards, crafting a slinky, shapeshifting synth groove to back the singer as he narrates a long-distance tryst with his girl—the result is considerably more hot and heavy than you’d expect from a romantic encounter conducted entirely through stereo speakers. Will this steamy cut be the one to earn Cossom’s yet-untitled, unscheduled freshman full-length a solid drop date? Only time will tell,. Either way, fans have more new music to look forward to—Cossom has not one but two new mixtapes, along with collaborative work with a variety artists, in the pipeline.

Love thru the speaker? Does this remind anyone else of Howard Stern's Private Parts movie (you know, where he gives the woman an orgasim over the phone, while she sits on a speaker?)? Anyways, this bumps. Not sure this is THE single for Kevin to use to kick off his career as a star (which he has the potential to be), but its a worthy swing.

The first 22 seconds were all I could listen to and I had no interest to hear more....very weak....gonna give 2 stars just cuz I'll give the benefit of the doubt for the rest of the song.

Dude sounds like a mediocre amalgam of Frank Ocean and Mario.
Only thing I've heard from that I enjoy is the hook for Best Night Ever by Wale |

Bangladesh beat is sick, and the bass is bumping! I think this is a definite Club Banger. I'll throw it in rotation for sure. Kevin can sing on here.

Hey roomie/Eric. Of course you know I digg it. I can't believe how far you've gone from me locking you out of the apartment that first night and you showing me what the blacked eye pea was all about. Good corn bread. I like the song alot. The hook is as good as any established musician out there and the lyrics are inspirational. We need more of this on the charts. Y'all will be big.
