Sensual R&B tracks
Slow jams are romantic R&B or soul songs with mellow tempos and sensual lyrics, typically associated with seduction or intimate moments: We put on some slow jams and dimmed the lights.
The term emerged from Black American music culture in the 1970s and 80s, distinguishing these tracks from uptempo dance numbers.
