With *In Tongues*, viral-video personality George \"Joji\" Miller merges into a new lane as an unsung hero of downcast R&B. With help from the 88 Rising crew, Joji inhabits a rarefied space somewhere between Majid Jordan and D’Angelo. Save a touch of self-deprecating humor on “Bitter Fuck,” Joji paints with a sublime touch on these six songs, creating after-hours soliloquies that gather appreciative head bobs.
