TOP 5

5. BITCHES BREW

This wasn’t one of the album’s singles, but it’s so good it easily earns a spot in the top five. SAILORR’s wordplay and lyricism are absolutely ridiculous—in the best way. She has a talent for speaking to a broad yet specific audience, making her songs feel personal and relatable. This track delivers clever innuendos and serves realness from start to finish. It’s the perfect listen for those days when it feels like everyone is testing your patience.

4. DOWN BAD

In “DOWN BAD,” SAILORR sings about the emotional chaos of falling for the person you’re sleeping with. She’s reached the point where everything this man says feels endearing, and everything he does seems perfect. He doesn’t even have to try—she wants him regardless. She’s completely captivated, wrapped around his finger. Down bad, if you will.

3. CUT UP

“CUT UP“ is funny, playful, and undeniably sensual. It’s all about losing your composure over someone you’re really into—wanting to be around them, but not quite ready to admit just how badly. It’s that awkward, flirty space where you’re acting a fool because you’re trying to play it cool. Like, do you want them to come over? Of course. Do you want them to know you’ve been thinking about it all day? Probably not. This song captures that feeling perfectly. It’s flirty, it’s honest, and I love every second of it.

2. W1LL U L13?

This was the second song I discovered from SAILORR, and it’s the one that gets stuck in my head the most. “W1LL U L13?” is about falling for someone and wondering just how deep they’re in it, too. Are you willing to go out of your way for me? Are you going to do the most? Will you lie for me? The track blends classic R&B vibes with a modern edge, creating a sound that feels nostalgic and fresh at the same time.

1. POOKIE’s REQUIEM

At the end of the day, this song had to be my #1. Ever since the remix featuring Summer Walker dropped, “POOKIE’S REQUIEM” has been a household favorite. My best friends, my sister, my cousin, my boyfriend—even my kids—jam out to this track (though I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it for the little ones). It’s petty in the best way possible, and SAILORR’s wordplay and flow are absolutely insane.

This track solidified it for me—SAILORR is that girl.

RGM RATING

Rising artist SAILORR is staking her claim in the R&B scene with her captivating new album, From Florida’s Finest. Melding smooth, classic R&B textures with modern production and razor-sharp lyricism, this project is more than just music—it’s a vibe, a mood, and a full experience.

Standout tracks like “W1LL U L13?” and “DOWN BAD” showcase SAILORR’s ability to channel emotional vulnerability and romantic obsession through catchy, emotionally layered hooks. It’s sweet, sexy, and occasionally devastating—exactly the emotional rollercoaster fans crave.

But don’t mistake her softness for simplicity. On “POOKIE’S REQUIEM”, SAILORR flexes her lyrical prowess with a track that’s unapologetically petty, witty, and iconic. It’s become a fan-favorite anthem—and for good reason. Meanwhile, songs like “ITADAKIMASU” and “DONE SHAVING 4 U” blend cheeky flirtation with confident independence, proving that SAILORR’s pen cuts as deep as it charms.

From Florida’s Finest is a bold, clever collection from an artist who knows exactly who she’s speaking to—and she’s got our full attention.
