    Not sure if anybody has mentioned these guys/albums, but...

    J. Holiday's last album was the best male R&B album of last you IMO. And it's full of "Baby Makin" joints, if you haven't heard it check it out.

    And for some good R&B (not just baby makin music) check out Eric Roberson, dude is a beast... his album "Left..." was serious.

    And Raheem DeVaughn's last album was good as well.

    I've heard some dudes say thats why they don't like Ne-Yo...said his music is too "soft"...they're too used to singers dressing/acting like rappers...they see a ? singing in a suit that's doesn't look like Steve Harvey's and they think it's some "punk ? "

    What they need to know is Neyo is writing half these dudes music, him and The Dream are running the biz.

    Neyo is crazy talented...no doubt about that.

    But.....he's just missing that...Idk...."swoon" factor. (for lack of a better term)

    I mean really, you'd prolly let your girl go backstage to meet Neyo...Trey Songz...not so much.

    The Dream CAN NOT SING FOR ? ...I have no clue how this ? has a singing career...and his writing skills are very debatable in terms of lyricism
