GIVĒON Serenades With His 'BELOVED' New Album
Summary GIVĒONhas just released his highly anticipated new album,BELOVED. Speaking on the project, he shared viaRatedR&B: 'BELOVED is a complete encapsulation of the very transformative growth I experienced over the past three years. My trials and tribulations — the good and the bad — all helped form this album.' The 14-track album showcases GIVĒON's signature low, raspy vocals across a range of R&B sounds, blending rich textures with intimate storytelling. It includes his hit single 'TWENTIES,' which recently charted on the US Billboard Hot 100. The album opens with a cinematic orchestration, setting the tone for a more reflective and evolved chapter in his artistry. While much of the project leans into an acoustic, stripped-down tone, one standout track — 'AVALANCHE' — introduces a more upbeat energy, providing a vibrant contrast to the rest of the record. Another highlight, 'I CAN TELL,' bridges GIVĒON's soulful vocals with a more sensual, groove-driven production. Layered with lush background harmonies, the track arrives as the album's sixth song and feels like a subtle pivot — closing the heartbreak – heavy first half and ushering in a more yearning, forward-facing tone. With pulsing drums and electric guitar, it captures a sense of longing and release, all while maintaining a rhythm that invites listeners to lean in and feel deeply. BELOVEDmarks a significant evolution in GIVĒON's sound. Departing from his earlier reliance on looped instrumentals, this album embraces live instrumentation — from cinematic strings and regal horns to rich, organic drums and jazzy tunes. The result is a project that feels both introspective and immersive, as if listeners are experiencing a live performance woven with nostalgia, romance, and vivid memory. It's a sonic journey that elevates GIVĒON's artistry while honoring the timeless roots of classic R&B and 70s soul. BELOVEDis now streaming on all platforms — listen to the full album below.

The volunteer crew located the first paddleboarder, before making way to the three remaining paddleboarders who had drifted further out to sea. After finding all four people, they were hauled onto the lifeboat for initial casualty care. They were taken to Catterline Harbour and handed over to the care of HM Coastguard and the Scottish Ambulance Service. Montrose RNLI's all-weather lifeboat was also tasked by HM Coastguard to support the incident at 8.18pm. They were stood down at 9.34pm after Stonehaven RNLI retrieved the casualties, and the Montrose RNLI crew located a missing paddleboard to prevent any further call outs. The group had their mobile phones and were able to call the coastguard when they got into difficulty. Kenny Jones, volunteer helm at Stonehaven RNLI, says: "Thankfully the casualties had their mobile phones with them and knew to call the coastguard when they got into difficulties. "The weather conditions off our coast can change really quickly and what starts as an adventure can quickly go wrong. "It is so important that people have the equipment and knowledge they need.

"If anyone sees someone in difficulty on the coast, dial 999 and ask for the coastguard."
