smh at the hype yall give Trey Songz, nigga doesn't know if he want to rap or sing. Truth of the matter is, none of these niggas are making soul or traditional music, the music is tacky and abrassive if you ask me. These dudes don't even have the class to use metaphors to describe sex anymore, they are straight out singing about fucking and sucking literally. The last great R and B album i heard was Donell Jones "Where i wanna be" album.

that's one of the better songs on Chris Brown's album but his In My Zone Gangsta Grillz>>>>Grafitti by ALOT...

I still haven't listened to his mix tape yet but I agree that that was one of the best songs on graffiti

that's my main problem w/ the majority of R&B now...there's no difference in the lyrics you will hear in an R&B song and a rap song now...they all sound alike literally...R&B singers wanna be rappers and rappers all wanna sing now...I blame Nelly and the success of "Dilemma" lol

"Sing Like Me", "Wait" and "What I Do" are the only 3 songs from that album I still listen to...but his mixtape his what his album should've been IMO...Madusa,Perfume, Too Freaky, No Bullshit (even tho I generally hate cussing in my R&B lol), I Get Around, Convertible are all hot ass songs and those are just the ones I think are the best

Raheem Devaughn makes classic music. Check his song "Mo Better". People will be listening to that song decades from now.

Floetry's been gettin it in this decade, Maxwell came back. Stacey Epps is a new talent. Jill Scott.

you missing out!

but Dwele is another one that i love.

I live in DC and they played the fuck out of his songs when he first came out...that may be why...I remember being annoyed at hearing him on the radio so much and thinking "this nigga looks like Ludacris tryna sing" when I finally saw his video

cosign, dudes like Raheem and Musiq are boring as fuck to me; they are the Talib Kweli and Blu of R and B. I recognize the talent but they just don't have the certian something that compells me to listen to them all the time.
