2023 Grammy Award-Winner for Best R&B Performance ("Hrs & Hrs)

Featuring the hits "Hrs & Hrs" and "Time Machine," Public Displays of Affection is a soundtrack of intimacy that seems to offer an answer: Let love lead. "I am a lover," Muni Long explains. "I prefer to be kind. I believe in fairytales. The reason 'Public Displays of Affection worked' is because love was absent in R&B." For the breakthrough project, Muni wanted to mimic the ebbs and flows of a relationship, dipping and diving between moods and sounds – which is real, because love can be tumultuous, too.
