I never even heard "Breaking Point" but last night I heard "Pretty Girl Rock" on the radio and man! that is great!

The new Chrisette Michele album is really striking... she's definitely taking more risks on this one, and it's a lot snappier than Epiphany. And "Goodbye Game" is a hell of an anthem

i have not heard remotely as many R&B albums this year as i did in 08 or 09, and i'm not sure if that's my fault or there really has just been fewer full-lengths generating any excitement. can we start talking year-end favorites? i'm sure i missed some good shit.
― ethnic slizzur (some dude), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 23:05 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah i'll second that request
― overtheseas aeroplanes I have flown (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 23:06 (thirteen years ago) link
the r&b contenders for my overall list would be:
erykah badusadek. michellequadronthe-dreamfantasiacorinne bailey raetrey songz
it's a bit of a weird year in that, even though i've been actively disappointed by v little, nothing 's really leaped out and demanded the top spot. i've absolutely caned love king but i can't honestly give it album of the year status when i compare it to its predecessors.
still some to come - is the keri hilson album due this year? and ciara, obviously, who actually might well have made by album of the year.
― lex lex lex lex lex on the track BOW (lex pretend), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 23:12 (thirteen years ago) link
-dream and corinne bailey rae are my top r&b, i think.
most exciting release left is def LAST TRAIN TO PARIS (very well could be end up my album of the year!), then BASIC INSTINCT and the Jazmine Sullivan (anyone heard this yet?)
― Here we are in a sticky situation/ (Tape Store), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 23:26 (thirteen years ago) link
...caned is good, right?
― ethnic slizzur (some dude), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 23:34 (thirteen years ago) link
caned = played over and over again. lol.
oh yeah jazmine sullivan! def a contender based on the 5 songs i've heard. is diddy/dirty money still scheduled for this year? labels seem to be doing a bit better at keeping music under wraps these days. apart from ciara's, sigh.
― lex lex lex lex lex on the track BOW (lex pretend), Wednesday, 17 November 2010 23:36 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, dirty money and ciara both drop on the same day
last train to paris = best album cover of the year: http://www.amazon.com/Last-Train-Paris-Diddy/dp/B003MPAFZ0

Shiplo have u heard jeremih?? Prob my fav r&b of the year after erykah/dreamer
Was wondering if u had checked it yet
― big smang theory (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 18 November 2010 00:22 (thirteen years ago) link
oh yeah i like the kelis and bilal, foreign exchange was ok too
didn't really get into the jeremih, but then it toom me ages to really get into his debut too
― lex lex lex lex lex on the track BOW (lex pretend), Thursday, 18 November 2010 00:23 (thirteen years ago) link
The production on that album is like a spa
― big smang theory (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 18 November 2010 00:25 (thirteen years ago) link
Jeremih is close to beating Dream at his own game this year. Lacks a 'Yamaha' but I'm more prone to spinning the whole album.
― abcfsk, Thursday, 18 November 2010 00:28 (thirteen years ago) link
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, I like

man yall are def fucking up if you don't like the first jeremih, pretty much a classic
― overtheseas aeroplanes I have flown (k3vin k.), Thursday, 18 November 2010 03:33 (thirteen years ago) link
I don't dislike it at all. I just didn't really give it much time. I'm not even sure I gave it a second listen.
― dark side of the goon (The Reverend), Thursday, 18 November 2010 03:43 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah dude it's a total grower, i think pretty much all its boosters here admit it took them a few listens

really do find that a bizarre viewpoint. i would be loth to criticise the new one by most other available yardsticks, but not in comparison to the debut.
― r|t|c, Thursday, 18 November 2010 03:52 (thirteen years ago) link
with the exception of quadron (who i've never heard of) i would stand by lex's list and add ne-yo, jeremih and what i've heard of migueli'm sure the ciara is gonna be a monster, have we already discussed the new single?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgUtoUu1r50haven't heard the new bilal; it's worth hunting down?

^ lolling at that dn.
can't really add to the albums already been said, and tbrr the only ones i'd really go to bat for are erykah and mmts. i suppose it's not really worth me making the big statement about this being the worst r&b year in living memory yada yada, but yeah pretty much all the germane kicks i used to get i've gotten out of 2010's uk funky, house & dancehall tbh.
― r|t|c, Thursday, 18 November 2010 05:46 (thirteen years ago) link
just listened to the new avant album btw. it was average.
― r|t|c, Thursday, 18 November 2010 05:47 (thirteen years ago) link
avant should just change his name to average

poor myron avant, burdened with lies from the start.
should probably now clarify i meant the bad kinda average as opposed to his earlier stuff's (imo) good kind.
