    "R'n'B" recommendations PLEASE!?

    INDEED! Whilst I was playing a c/s version of Promise by Ciara I actually had some guy come up to me at the beginning of the last one and inform me my record was fucked up. I tried to explain it wasn't but I think it fell on deaf ears. I'm playing at this in a few weeks...should be good.

    "R'n'B" recommendations PLEASE!?

    I think it's often the vocal calibre of singers that turns alot of people off of modern day r&b. Ciara and Cassie have been accused of lacking personality or the most basic of vocal skills, and while I would never say they have the strongest technical voices in the world, I think both singers...

    "R'n'B" recommendations PLEASE!?

    The first one was awesome, really packed, lots of dancing, etc. The last one wasn't as good. I changed it to a Friday and the crowd was all wrong. I don't think they got what the night was supposed to be about so I had lots of requests for stuff like Salt N Pepa and Vanilla Ice, followed by...

    "R'n'B" recommendations PLEASE!?

    The Amerie album was just really poorly promoted, and didn't even get a general release in America. I think it was only sold for a limited time in something like Walmart. The singles didn't connect in the way the label thought they would have done, and they seemed to give up on the album almost...

    It's pretty tragic how badly treated Amerie's last record was. Sadly I've heard her new single and it's honestly not that good. It sounds like she's kinda reverting back to the smooth grooves of her first album which will obviously please some, but just sounds like a big boring step backwards...

    Dummy magazine asked me to make an r&b/hip hop themed mix for them. I thought some of you might be vaguely interested. Keep in mind I'm not particularly good at mixing, but I think the music is good at least. http://www.dummymag.com/next/2009/06/05/so-bones-mini-mix/

    I posted about this on my new blog. but seriously does anyone know if this beat has ever materialised outside of this performance? It's really too good to imagine it wont be given life with an actual song. It comes in at 2.57. <div><object width="480" height="381"><param name="movie"...

    I very recently started up another blog that's gonna be mostly concerned with obsessing over R&B and hip hop and the better end of pop music. Some of you may like it. Possibly. http://sobones.blogspot.com/

    This guy's album really needs to drop some time soon. He was responsible for producing some of Young Jeezy's best, and creepiest beats and he was also the genius behind Sexual Eruption. For his solo debut he appears to be moving into making dreamy space soul that doesn't sound too dissimilar...

    I will have to resist from playing most of Fantasy Ride on the night!! I'm not sure if I should play Echo with or without Jeezy. Personally I prefer the version without him, but people might be expecting to hear him. Hmmmm....
