Black Love Personified…

RubyGld Smoke, the dynamic husband and wife R&B duo of T. L. and Dani Jo Williams, have already began to rack up some impressive early accolades within the last couple of years; including features in The Hype Magazine, Authority Magazine, & a Global Shorts Film Festival win for best Music Video (Throw Away Tonight). The duo's journey began in Chicago when TL, having found solo success, joined forces with Dani Jo in 2020. Their artistic synergy, honed through years of collaborative writing and production for other artists, sparked the inspiration for the group. The couple's love story is the heartbeat of their art. The Pop-Soul sound recalls timeless artistry from the likes of The Isley Brothers and Coldplay. The live shows are vibrant and full of mesmerizing energy, reminiscent of The Fugees. Their brand is characterized as Black Love personified – a powerful fusion of Black Beauty and Black Excellence. You can hear this in their latest effort Sucker Punch!.. an EP with a pop-soul blend where TL and Dani Jo produced, & performed every track together.
