I'm looking forward to this release

R. Kelly/mainstream R&B and hip hop is totally cool with the indie/hipster crowd, bort.

Also, you're trying too hard.

I'm not a fan, but that performance on Fallon was 90% amazing for all the right reasons (and 10% amazing for all the wrong ones).

My wife has two records to her name - The Judd's Greatest Hits and R. Kelly The Chocolate Factory.

I lost my indie cred on this board when a Ben Folds album made my year-end top 20. It's nice to finally have some company.

I'm not making that up. She doesn't care for music much. If I get in the car after she's driven it, the radio is turned off. But she loves her some "Remix to Ignition." I could probably play her the entire top 20 right now, and she wouldn't know a song.

The whole album is supposed to be Motown-inspired.

He's nailed it. I've never listened to him before, but I might have to grab this.

how have you never listened to R. Kelly before

That Jimmy Fallon performance was awesome enough for me to post on facebook.

mine owns like three. a Colin Raye Christmas CD, Boys II Men, and some Disco comp. I would wager she has never bought a cd or dvd for herself.

listened to the album today and this is totally bullshit. its more early 90s inspired, but really only a few good songs and i love just about every r. kelly album

bort · **Posted:** Fri Dec 10, 2010 8:23 am

early 90s? as in early 90s motown? does it sounds like Boyz II Men?

I don't understand how you can marry someone who doesn't get music. I fell for my partner (of over 15 years) during our second date over a discussion on the relative merits of the guitar tones of Brian May and Mick Ronson.

And soul (as opposed to rap/hip hop) music is very indie now. Two that I've enjoyed this year:

Bilal - who deconstructs r&b.

As opposed to John Legend who tried to reconstruct 70's soul.

To be fair, I own probably 3000-ish records & you could say the same thing about me.
