The Official R&B and Slow Jams news, reviews, and stuff thread

^That sounds like Khandi the ex-Xscape member

Although I do like one of her songs

In fact I think she rights cheesy lyrics
but it’s just artists know how to sing the songs and make them catch on

The Dream = Shawty right der is a teeeeeeeeen.

any thing pre 95 ftw

Ledisi is dope.:tup:

mario-skipping from the Go cd is slick

the new Raheem DeVaughn is fuckin good!

Word. So is the new Badu and Ledisi.

new usher single is out. what do you guys think of it?

^Didnt hear it yet.

Anyways glad this thread was bumped
cuz I can rant about how bad I want Chris Brown to make a video for
"Nice" that has to prolly be the most bombass song on that album.

Is the new Usher that ‘Fuck you in the Club’ bullshit with Jeezy? Then yes. It’s bullshit.

And I will say this until the day I die: Kelis is the best singer on earth. PERIOD.

yea that would be the new usher song.

also anyone like Consequence ft John Legend- Feel This Way? i’ve been listening to that song for a while now.

DAMN!! Im hella late but Im in this thread like swimwear from now on!!

Badu is INSANE.

Raheem is INSANE.

Janet is ok. Best album by her in years.

Danity Kane has a good cd. I know. . it sounds crazy. And I hate that single. The cd is sick tho, not too into the club tracks but the production is excellent none the less. The mid tempo tracks are where the excel far and wide. Even the interludes are hot. I found a few songs on youtube tracks…

Danity Kane - Lights Out

Danity Kane - Pretty Boy

Day 26 has some good shit out too. Im surprised from them both.

EDIT: Zulu, Kelis is AWESOME. But she cant really hold a note, its really weird the way she sings, which is in her appeal. But shes not even close to being in the league of the conventional “good singers.” I wouldnt even call her R&B, whys she mentioned in this thread?

^ That’s why Kelis is so dope. She is one of a few group of artists who can sing any genre of music. Also the fact that she is NOT the conventional artist is her greatest appeal. Plus again, she’s the most advanced artist out there. She is at least 5 years ahead of everyone when it comes to song content and substance. Behold:

Hip hop (I guess): [media=youtube]ARTS2lQ9bZo[/media]
Dance: [media=youtube]b2RCjgAooDM[/media]
Neo Soul: [media=youtube]Kbm_fq7TZXQ[/media]
Techno: [media=youtube]aGXDBKYREWU[/media]
Rock: [media=youtube]I7DL68AUjzw[/media]
Trip hop: [media=youtube]XLVH3iLm5zQ[/media]
Motown: [media=youtube]hWzrr__wYMQ&feature=related[/media]

^ Yup Kelis is pretty dope but so overlooked.

I really like Erykah Badu’s new video it is fly
I think I’ll but teh album next week.
Has anyone heard of Brick and Lace? they are great and they remind me of Changing Faces a lil bit

btw I dun remember if I asked but anyone likes Jon B?
what happened to him man I love his voice and does anyone like forgein r&B

big jon b fan, very smooth white boy. i heard ginuwine has a new album comming out can anyone confirm? craig david is slick too.

Have you seen Craig David’s latest video? Nigga is big as shit now. Looks like fucking Timbaland but cut.

DK is pretty underrated because they were made by Diddy. But their 1st album wasn’t shitty. It was pretty decent.

This has been THE INVINCIBLE SWORDSMAN saying:

Been bumpin Amerie’s latest called Crazy, Sexy, Wondeful. I so love that woman.

The second album is better thant he first!

New Keri Hilson promo video/ different arrangement.

Where Did He Go

Not only is she gorgeous. She has a voice, and a mind.

Jon B is performing at my school in 2 weeks. On a slightly related note, Slick Rick is too the following week.

…who bit who? hahah

I’m a huge Jon B fan as well. Been listening to him since his debut song with Babyface “Someone to love” on the Bad Boys soundtrack. I feel bad that he doesn’t have a major label to back him up. His old major label fucked him over for not giving him his proper push/ promotion. I felt that he didn’t get enough mainstream press for his second ( Cool Relax) and third album ( Pleausres U Like). He’s on a independent label nowadays, I think. He should have been the Eminem of the r&b world. I seen him in concert twice and he rocked the place. He even almost stole my wife (kidding) when he told all the ladies to come up on stage. His last album was pretty good, waiting on his new one coming out this year.
