Blame it on patriotism, but the word Canadian in any musician’s biography never fails to make me stop and take a listen. Julian Cruz is a Toronto native, and the newest addition to Drake‘s OVO XO crew. “Black Heart” off his mixtape of the same name is melodic, smooth and dark all at the same time.  This crooner’s raw and infectious take on R&B sets him apart from any of the other members of the XO crew, making him a talent to keep your eyes on!
