On the chorus of “Gin and Wine,” Tanika Charles will shock you by singing about envying another woman. That’s despite the Toronto soul singer’s vocal delivery being relatable and distinctive enough to make anyone jealous of her. Yes, the string-laden track from her new album Papillon de Nuit: The Night Butterfly, out now, shouldn’t just be […]
