R&B Fridays: Episode 38


I had 40 potential tracks this week. 40. That’s a big number. I barely have the time for a regular episode, let alone a 40-deep one, and it’s actually really hard to pick a set out of them. I’ve picked what seemed to be the strongest/potentially most popular 20, and I’ll try to post the rest up in a few days.

Click on for 5 helpings of new Usher, a couple of features from The-Dream and many more huge names.

EDIT:  I uploaded the wrong artwork for the tracks, and they have pictures of The-Dream as the album art. My bad, but I’m not re-uploading everything again. It could be worse :)

Estelle and Kardinal Offishall-Freak Video

Visuals are released for Estelle’s David Guetta-produced club track/latest single from her upcoming album. Audio can be swiped from here if you didn’t grab it first time out last week.

Estelle and Kardinal Offishall Collab


Bit of a change in direction for Estelle. Pretty dancey track, with some dub elements in the production too. Produced by David Guetta, so there’s no secret that this one is aimed at the clubs.

It might grow on me eventually, but I was a fan of her more soulful stuff so I’m not completely sold on this yet. However, I completely expect this to be a pretty massive track as it’s exactly the sound the mainstream is looking for right now, so it’s one worth grabbing if you’re that way inclined.

David Guetta and Kid Cudi-Memories Video

And it don’t stop. Another contender for best party jam of ‘09, and definitely Guetta’s best track. Way, way better than Sexy B*tch.

So yeah, I love this track. The video is a bit plain, but that’s alright as it’s difficult to really break the mould for these sort of tracks. Does a job though, and as with the below video makes me want to spin the track again.

Swack the audio here.

R&B Fridays: Episode 33


Similar to last week’s episode, this one contains a nice blend of big names, up-and-comers and some that we (I) haven’t heard from in a while.

We’ve dropped some R&B-related goodies throughout the week too, be sure to scroll down a couple of posts and check out the video for Usher’s lead single from Raymond vs. Raymond. When you’ve done that, scroll back up and enter the R&B room.

My bad, things got a bit out of schedule yesterday and I didn’t get time to put this up. Ah well, it’s here now. Usher and R. Kelly headline this episode, and with Ne-Yo, Alicia Keys, Jason Derulo and more following up, you know this a good episode. Big names and big tracks after the click.

R&B Fridays: Episode 6

ne-yoThis post was updated after it was posted: Scroll to the bottom after the click!

(I wanted to delay this post this until tomorrow due to the magnitude of the post directly below this one, but I suppose I can’t break a tradition!)

This week there are tracks from huge names such as Ne-Yo, Lloyd, Akon, Chris Brown and others after the click.

There’s an album review coming tomorrow too from one of the best Soul/R&B albums I’ve ever heard. Keep an eye out for it, as I promise it will be a good read!
