(Terrible low-quality snippet. The last line of the chorus is "I'll get my Vanity 6 on.")

Just did a search and was mildly disappointed to see no instances of "Jerimeh."

YouTube video just went up for Chrisette Michele's "Blame Game"... I always mangle my attempts to embed these things, but this one's worth the potential embarrassment

About two seconds into the first listen, I said "Oh shit" aloud and... sheeeeeeeeeeiiiit.
indeed - just got the album and this is def the standout. i hadn't clocked that the lyric was "i'll get my vanity 6 on" before!
jazmine album gets a definite thumbs up - the ne-yo duet is another highlight, funny and a bit meta, better than anything on the disappointing libra scale. "love you long time" also stood out. a couple of the tracks are a bit jazmine-by-numbers on one listen but this might change, and it's not like she's resting on her laurels all the time.

feeling this new Keyshia Cole "Long Way Down"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yKztREEeq4
her harmonies on this are great... this sounds like she's forgot about whatever she was doing on A Different Me and went back to that lush sound she perfected on Just Like You.. also, glad Justice League is doing more R&B stuff now that's obviously their strength... they have their own female R&B artist who is dope can't remember her name at the moment

Just got the new Miguel album—apparently it has a release date of Nov. 30. Sounds and looks a little rushed and low-budget TBH, and it's really all over the place; lots of dumbed-down electro-pop and Kid Cudi-ish oddness, which is a shame since he's best over straight R&B/hip-hop beats. But at least his two songs with Salaam Remi are amazing, the two tracks with Dre & Vidal are alright, and this track "Teach Me" is wonderfully bizarre; reminds me a bit of an electrified Bilal/Prince hybrid. Still love this guy's voice and have cautious hope for future releases.

just want to say that i love this cover? the trenchcoat is like a subtle "im still not a real R&B singer but i want to be" bit of self-aware roleplaying right? and the album title is XD

as far as miguel, his song w/ jcole made me accept jcole
― challop and a muff (deej), Friday, 26 November 2010 23:25 (thirteen years ago) link
in fact his song w/ jcole is 100% awesome & behind only 'lay it down' and 'window seat' as far as mainstreamish R&B singles go this year

has everyone heard the jazmine sullivan album yet? think it's out there now. really good - fantastic backing vox throughout ("love you long time" is spectacular, esp w/the military tattoo) and i'm really taken by how concise she is - most songs clock in well under 4 minutes - they get in, do their thing and get out.

Jazmine's new album is A++ good on first listen. Maybe a better look for her than the first one, even if it's missing a real barn burner (although Holdin You Down might qualify). Less crazy experimentation and string sections and Daft Punk samples, but it's efficient and *joyful* in an unquantifiable sort of way.
