Rolling R&B Thread 2009

i dunno i've heard both versions enough times that i don't really have a preference between the 2 at this point

yeah, i dont think its as big a deal as the change to shawty

idk i think he really fucked up the song - the breathless orgasming of is pretty essential imo

"bed rest" is crazy - by the way what the hell do the other three girls in this group do? cuz it's one girl singing the whole thing as far as i can tell

haven't heard the whole album but it wouldn't surprise me if it's a Pussycat Dolls type deal w/ one singer and glorified backup dancers

it all kinda makes you rethink the whole pity party for all the other girls in Destiny's Child who actually got to sing whole verses on singles and shit

^^^yeah really - all this production reminds me of 90s era bad boy BIGGER THAN THE CITY LIGHTS DOWN IN TIMES SQUARE shit

i get a definite nightime in the city vibe

so many orgasm sounds on this album

Haha, this is great, I'm glad I asked

what the hell do the other three girls in this group do?

been wondering this myself and shipley otm

all this drip-sweat gasping on electrik red reminds me of like... 112 or something

Namoi is the main singer that sounds like Kelis, Lesley sounds like Christina Milian, and Binkie is the rapping one (she does all of "On Point")

Naomi**

does it really matter?

christina milian sounds like something??

Well, someone asked what the other girls do so....

it was me and it was rhetorical

not that i don't appreciate the answer just that i think sounding like kelis and sounding like milian = u r the same person

well SORRY geesh

haha im sorry

i'm more zinging the chicks in ER than begrudging you or something - sorry - no shots

jordan whats your lastfm

album is really really amazing - dream is just something else

"freaky freaky" really sounds like timbaland

those drips are right out of "cry me a river" and the FREAKY FREAKY UH *MOUTH CLICK* is like every aaliyah song

seriously this album

"p is for power" is my favorite i think. the open space in the chorus is amazing

I'm glad though that "P is for Power" gets all melodic and melodramatic in the middle-eight, else I might mistake it for Yo Majesty or something similar.

haha yeah the bridge comes out of nowhere really and is pretty cool

open space in the chorus is always kind of a breath of fresh air

guys, we need to participate in the electrik red dance competition.

you've been dancing

Electrik Red- How to be a Lady Vol.1 Terius 'n' Tricky make girl-pop magic

it's funny that almost everyone on ilm calls him terius now

that's cos terius and tricky and alliteration

I'm sad that my calling Ne-Yo "Shaffer" isn't taking off in the same manner. It even alliterates with Stargate, kinda.

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

wait did they skip straight to making a video for that song without ever making one for "24"? weird.

that's a great video!

and an incredible song, too - really hope it blows up

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

^^^

intro is pretty fucking crazy, turns into at least 3 other tunes thereafter

shades of Madonna 'Human Nature' in the vid but also weirdly reminded of Dream 'He Loves Me Not' sexed up

song is giving me a "Ring the Alarm" vibe

Why have none of you fuxx alerted me to this amazing song:

if u read the jukebox u will find these things tim! i only gave it 7/10 b/c i thought the chorus could do with another line but i feel this less now

i'm quite glad richgirl are pushing 'he ain wit me now', which is just INC-RED-I-BLE, rather than the kinda blah '24s'

i didn’t get a blurb in, but the chorus on this one is really underwritten, and i think it would’ve been REALLY good if there was anything else in the chorus besides endless repetition

Al Sh1pl3y: Maybe I’m just a sucker for pretty girls talking dirty, but I’ll never get tired of R&B songs that take not just the sound but also the explicit vocabulary from hip hop.

this comment re nina sky is very prescient in the wake of 'how to be a lady vol 1'

I do read the Jukebox Lex, but I missed that one obv. Actually two weeks ago i gave the Jukebox a big big-up on my show!

Admittedly "On Some Bullshit" is no way as amazing as that RichGirl song which just transformed my life forever.
