Nathaniel Broadstreet draws from the enduring sounds of R&B, soul, funk, hip-hop, and pop, pairing the smoothness of classic R&B with the rhythm and energy of contemporary music. His influences include Prince, Michael Jackson, New Edition, Luther Vandross, Earth, Wind & Fire, Rick James, and Troop. That lineage comes through in music that respects the golden eras of Black music while allowing room for his own voice.
His latest single, “Count On Our Love,” is a bright, romantic entry in that tradition. Broadstreet describes the sound as “grown folks” R&B, and the arrangement gives the song plenty of space to breathe. Percussion, bass, and vocal hooks carry much of the weight, creating a warm, lively bounce that invites movement without crowding the melody.
The production leans into a familiar, comforting feel. A tight kick and crisp snares and claps anchor the syncopated rhythm, while textured instrumentation and rich vocal harmonies lend the track its easy melodic flow. Those layered voices bring a gentle anthemic quality to a song that otherwise feels relaxed and close.
A steady, brisk groove, lush keyboards, and direct, accessible lyrics give the song its sense of momentum. At its heart is a simple promise: “you can always count on our love.” Broadstreet’s soulful, expressive delivery makes that reassurance feel personal, carrying the emotional weight without straining for drama.
The lyrics return to trust, commitment, and the security of having someone to rely on. “Count On Our Love” speaks to a partner with affection and certainty, offering a steady presence through life’s inevitable uncertainties.
That warmth also gives the song its versatility. It sits comfortably in a late-night listening session, yet its buoyant rhythm could work just as easily in a club. The result is a romantic, nostalgic R&B track that draws on the reassuring spirit of classic Black soul music.
