Sentury Crowned #1 in the Nation with their Soulful Reimagining of “Only Human”

Houston based R&B group Sentury has triumphed in spectacular fashion, claiming the #1 spot on the Mediabase Urban AC Chart and #2 on Billboard Adult R&B Airplay with their breakout single, "Only Human.” This achievement not only crowns the 9x Billboard-charting group as the #1 record in the nation, but also signals the triumphant return of the R&B group to mainstream dominance.

The 2025 release of "Only Human," a masterful reimagining of the Jeffrey Osborne classic, has electrified audiences nationwide, garnering praise from industry legends including the original hitmakers themselves. Barry Eastman, who produced and co-wrote the original with Osborne,enthusiastically endorsed Sentury's interpretation, declaring, "I'm absolutely honored that you covered this song. Your version is slamming! I love it!"

CJ, Leo, AJ, and Rico don’t just create music, they embody it. Their pristine harmonies, dynamic stage presence, and electrifying charisma captivate audiences coast to coast.  

Sentury’s style is silk in motion—rich harmonies,vintage cool, and unapologetic soul draped insmooth suits and dimly lit desire. They effortlessly channel the golden age of R&B: think wine- soaked vocals over slow-dancing basslines, leather-bound notebooks of love letters, and late night phone calls under streetlamp halos. The production is lush but grounded—live instrumentation kissed with modern sheen, like satin slipping over a drumbeat. Their sound is sexy without showboating, vulnerable without weakness, and classic without sounding dated. This is grown-man R&B: respectful, romantic, and full of finesse. You don’t just listen to Sentury— you feel them in your chest. Perfect for riding top-down at dusk, two-stepping at weddings, or sipping slow at a lounge where love still lives.

Their stage presence has magnified audiences from coast to coast. The energy of Sentury is a signature within itself and everything they offer is something each and every individual can appreciate. Music is a gift for the ear and the soul so allow CJ, Leo, AJ, and Rico to upgrade you to the next Sentury.

Cole Lumpkin Moves With the Music, Letting Life Shape Every Note

Cole Lumpkin doesn’t create from a distance. He creates from inside the moment. As a New York City native, his artistry reflects motion, curiosity, and constant self-interrogation. Music for Lumpkin isn’t something you step into once everything is figured out. It’s something you carry with you, refine on the move, and allow to grow alongside real life. A self-taught…See More
