The video is here, with the legend Donell Jones in the cut :wow:


:me: You can't convince me that songs like "23", "You", "House or Hotel", & etc. wouldn't have been hits n 2000's.

His singing on "23", "You" and "House or Hotel" sounds like every autotune song from the last couple of years; almost all of these new cats in the game now be auto tuning and whiny on records, their singing be so high pitch and not in a falsetto way at all, just auto tune.

From the songwriting to the production, his stuff sounds like 2018.
He might sample a couple of songs from the 2000's, but his songs don't sound like 2000's r&b


:ohlawd: "23" got me wanting to check for Donell Jones' older shyt.




@stomachlines What did you think "London" & "Play the Field"?

My favourite R&B album of all time is Donell Jone's debut album. I play that shyt at least once a week, especially this song :wow:


all his first 4 albums are damn near perfect and playable with no skips.

I checked out a few of his songs, they was aiiiiiiiiiight at best but nothing that really appealed to me :manny:

Donell Jones 1st album was really nice and his 2nd album is a classic :ohlawd:

3rd album was nice too.

What about his 4th album, "Journey of a Gemini"?
Its dope as hell. Just listen to "My Apology" and "Cry" and you'll know what im talkin about.

That My Apology song has one of my favourite R&B hooks/choruses

"sisqo is a better singer" :mjlol:

"brehs voice is just okay" :mjlol:

Jacquees can sing circles around any r&b nikka not named Michael or Tevin



That's good but not better than most R&B singers before his time. fukk out of here

This honestly. Only the features from legends and the harmonies are separating him a little bit from the current class. The production simply ain't drowned with hihat. Besides that, that's it.
