Do you miss those good RnB songs?

I haven't heard many good RnB ballads that drives and motivates you to do something or just say yeah, "Usher, I know what you're talking about.." They were once a dime a dozen, but quality RnB tracks are so scarce that it makes me wonder whether artists have just quit their line of work...

Here's my list of classic RnB songs that make you say uh huh or damn right

1. Usher - You got it bad.
Usher, you got it right. This song makes me say damn...you're right usher, I've got it bad.

2. Beyonce/Destinys Child - Dangerously in Love
Sometimes this happens to ppl, me too, you like the person so much even though you shouldn't, can't or you just know that crushing on this person is bad news..

3. Usher- Confessions Pt. II
Usher has a track record, as sad as the song is and no matter how much wrong you did, we forgive you because you keep feeding us with dope tracks.

4. Boyz II Men - On Bended Knee
For all you guys that know how it feels to fall in the gutter, be kicked by ppl passing by and being shatted on by birds all at once, I was once there. And Boyz II Men was with me all the way.

5. Justin Timberlake - Cry me a River
Britney never deserved you..She was always crazy (reference Toronto Star Sunday edition, FEb 25th, 2007, Arts/Media section, page 7. She shaved her head and is hitting a car with an umbrella)

6. Monica - Just one of them Days
When I was single, sometimes I would think, just one of dem days, I wish I was your man. You know what i'm talking about, when you have that crush and you wish that person would just realize that you exist and have so much love to give...just one of them days

7. TLC - Creep
Classic

8. Montell Jordan - This is How we Do It
One of the best club songs of all time..They still play it, surprisingly. But its one of those songs that reminds you of the early 90's, it makes you drop everything and say raise the roof. Thank you Montell, but you should haved retired after that song.

9. Aaliyah - I Miss You
Even though Aaliyah passed away after the release, this song was on repeat for weeks. It always reminded me of all the friends that have passed along the way, family that have left us and relationships that could have been something...

10. Janet Jackson - Got Til its gone
QTip really made this track what its worth, but this song is unbelievable. It brings back so many memories, all the parties i've been to, all the girls i've dated and its still on my playlists for ultra hip lounging tracks.

11. Fugees - Killing me Softly
Wow. This song had all the girls singing and it made playing an RnB track loud in your car cool. This was probably the biggest RnB song of the 90s, Lauryns voice was just mesmorizing...I just couldn't say no and turn off that radio when it was on..

12. Musiq - Just Friends
Read the lyrics, sometimes you wish friends weren't just friends...

13. LL Cool J ft. Boyz II Men - Hey Lover
I remember when this song came out, I had the biggest crush on this girl, and she had a boyfriend...they lyrics would just run in my head all the time when I was around her...I really wanted to make her feel special and know that i had a crush on her without getting wrecked by her bf..It didn't happen.

There's my list. Feel free to comment add your RnB songs that have dictated, narrated your love life.

its' been awhile...

It's been awhile since I've written in this blog.

Whats happened since? Not much..just a few things:
1. Job just gets better
2. Xbox360 is killing my free tim
3. TokyoPoliceClub, Of Montreal, Augustana, Bloc Party

Back to the blog part..

I can't wait to go to New York again. The city is more than the word fun. There is just so much to eat, to see, to do, to understand and there's always just relax and absorb the culture, sights and history. I'm really looking forward to it, although not too many people will be going, I think even if I venture off on my own to walk around the entire city, MOMA, Gugenheim could easily fill 4-5 days.

I always wonder what would have been if I left Toronto after school to work there, or even I grew up in an entirely different city, how different would I actually be? If I would think the same, have the hair, care about politics, same type of friends....list goes on........

Today was just a random thought day..no purpose.
