been getting into this heavy lately

i know roger is forever hard to take seriously but dude killed it, top 10 r&b of the year imo

tsk tsk tsk

tsk we're making that green
people always say what the hell does longneck mean

yeah that's dope

found myself digging the Tamar Braxton single the other day, anything is possible

The Marques Houston is good. I'm tsk'ing your Whitney gif. Outside of the strictly unnecessary AK47, the new 1977 is and sounds great.

we have an outbreak, patients are not obeying the quarantine, please return to your approved holding area: 6/7/2011, imma drop that body work / fuck my brains out double single (TERIUS NASH aka THE-DREAM, LOVE IV: anticipation and adoration)

what is "great" about it

this sillyness has also wormed its way into my head loads

i'd like to imagine there's more of this lurking in the bay and other environs, thread resolution for 2013 should be to abandon the internet mixtape circuit for a rolling regional r&b pop thug steez

The remaster and added touches makes it sound as gorgeous as his other albums + the songs are still great + there's less Casha. I have no idea why you guys like to pretend like it's a bad album. It has held up waaaaaaaaaay better than the Weeknd ones.

xp hmm p sure that isnt the official hd video for some reason

ah ok found it

ships made me realise 'dope bitch' was indeed actually really great

can that be enough terius talk now

did we ever do this one? smooshing all these people into the one verrry slow moving elevator is entertaining. will we ever again in our lives get to hear mmts background operatic behind an easy miguel delivery (and ashanti doing something or other)

the-dream: officially better than the weeknd. phew

thx for the youtubes rtc

Comparable because they both released retail versions of their free albums from 2011 in 2012, you know?

what in the world http://www.tmz.com/2012/12/15/trey-songz-arrested-strip-club-assault/

Least malicious assault ever?

NYC hip hop cops must be getting desperate for some action, it's been a minute since any rappers got busted on anything serious there

thanking rtc immensely for "who booty" and "these hoes is winnin"

"I Gave Up (Dinner for This)" ft. Ne-Yo

holy shit the beat switch-ups at the end of "fuck me daddy" O_O

SHANELL _ NOBODY'S BITCH _ ALBUM OF THE YEAR

EVERYONE STOP EVERYTHING we have an electrik red on our hands, i repeat --

^^ that's quite a statement

"I Gave Up (Dinner for This)" ft. Ne-Yo

bwahaha

lol alfred

i suppose i "shall" give this a screening

Man, I seriously underrated Elle Varner's album, it is so great. so very very great. very jazmine somehow. and yet not at all.

shanell got one spin and i love a lot of it, but don't have time to fall madly in love with it until wednesday night.

been anticipating this jojo mixtape for a while now

dling now

'we get by' was some underrated dopeness
