My Favorite R&B Albums(Part One, 30-21)


My Favorite R&B Albums of All Time
This is a ranked list of my favorite R&B Albums. If you think I need to check out another album not listed or you think an album I picked isn’t that great than let me know. I didnt include some albums, but only because i havent heard them that many times. I chose the following albums from a list of over 50 albums! ENJOY the countdown


30)Keyshia Cole-The Way It Is: Keyshia Cole’s debut starts off the list. Keyshia’s vocals are strong throughout. I really like “I Changed My Mind” which produced by Kanye West. I got this album in 2006 I think, but I liked K.C. just off the singles she put out at the time.

 

29)Usher-Raymond v. Raymond:I picked this album over Here I Stand because to me it’s a little flahsier, and more fun to listen to. The album’s first half is its better half. “Lil Freak” is a certified banger….

 

28)Alicia Keys-The Diary of Alicia Keys:This is the album that solidified Alicia as one of R&B’s elite artists. I absolutely love the singles like “Diary”, You Don’t Know My Name, and “If I Ain’t Got You”. I find “Karma” to be one of the best songs of her career.

 

27) Trey Songz-Chapter V:  Trigga Trey’s latest album makes the list. There’s lots of good songs throughout. It seems like he has his sound down to a science. “Heart Attack”, “2 Reasons”, and “Bad Decisions” are some that stand out.

 

26) Chris Brown-Exclusive(The Forever Edition)-I still consider this to be Chris’ best album. There’s an allstar guest list: Kanye, Game, Lil Wayne, Big Boi, T-Pain, and even Keri Hilson. The album has few average songs. Chris Breezy!

 

            25) Trey Songz-Ready: This is the album that really made Trey a big star. Its full   
Of great choruses and decent beats. “Yo Side of the Bed” and “Black Roses” are my favorite songs on the album. You can’t forget about “LOLJ” and “Say Ahh” though.

 

24) Rihanna-Loud(Deluxe): Besides Rated R, this is Rihanna ultimate Bad girl album. I love most every song. There’s a good deal of versatility here as well. Guests include Drake, Nicki Minaj, and even Eminem.

 

23) Ne-Yo-Year of the Gentlemen-His 3rd album is incredibly well done. There are no bad songs on it. There’s club records, heartbreak songs, and even songs that well, worship women lol.

 

22) Elle Varner-Perfectly Imperfect- A fairly new entry. Elle is a very introspective, humble artist; you can really hear that in her music. The album is great…I can’t wait for a next album from her.

 

21) Alicia Keys-The Element of Freedom-Alicia’s albums are all great, but I consider this one to be the most balanced and cohesive. “Try Sleeping With a Broken Heart” and “Love is Blind” are both great additions to her catalogue.
 
stay tuned for the next 20

Album Review: Schoolboy Q-Blue Lips

 Ok I am a big Schoolboy Q fan. I gotta say I love this album...but believe it or not what kept me from getting it till fall 2024 was that horrendous album artwork lol. I mean damn its gross! Schoolboy has some great flows and lyricism on this album. "Thank god 4 me" is absolute flames. "Blueslides" is another highlight. There's something about the song "first" that is just so catchy to me. "Yern" is also pretty hard man. The guest list is minimal but it works. The production is really good here too. The album isn't quite as good as Blank Face to me but its definitely a major improvement over his last album Crash Talk. Definitely check this one out. Lyrics 24 Beats 23 Depth 23 Tilt 23 Verdict 93

Tech Review: Iphone Air

 I have only had this phone for over a week but I feel the need to review it. I recently got a 512gb light gold iPhone Air. This phone is so thin. You really have to hold it for yourself to believe it. I knew when I used it at a local Best Buy I had to have it. The phone is also a modern marvel having most of the technology in the camera bump. Of course you're wondering about that camera and battery life.  Honestly the battery is decent. It gets me through the day at work with minimal charging ( I mean who goes somewhere with no charger anymore?). The camera is good too. I'm not a huge camera guy anyways. The phone's 6.5 inch Super Retina XDR OLED display is great. I really notice a difference from my old phone (iPhone 12). The phone doesn't really get that hot either which is great. One thing I'm not a huge fan of is the one speaker on the phone....but honestly it's not that bad. I usually use headphones anyways. Apple Intelligence is still in beta but I think ...

Video Game Review: Jedi Fallen Order

 I meant to review this game way back in the day when I first beat it but this is coming after my 2nd play-through. This time I played the game on hard difficulty and man was it tough. Compared to Jedi Survivor I think the game has a better story. You join Jedi padawan Cal Kestis as he escapes a scrapyard planet Bracca , fleeing from the Empire. Cal comes face to face with an Inquistor called 2nd sister. You end up fighting her a total of 4 times in the game.  The main story is Cal must help a former Jedi named Cere and her pilot Greez to find a Jedi holocron that has a list of force sensitive children to rebuild the Jedi Order. I gotta say the planets you visit are all for the most part pretty flushed out . I found Zeffo to be the main planet and navigating it is truly awful. Well I’m glad they made navigation better in Jedi Survivor. Of all the planets Dathomir (Darth Mauls planet) was by far the worst. There was tough enemies around every corner there and hard boss fights w...
