Usher fell off, and it pains me to say it cause I was a stan up until Confessions, which was the definition of a classic album

the biggest problem now with Usher is the lack of concepts and the production, he can still sing but the notes he hit and writing just isnt the same. and his production lacks uniqueness

Ne-Yo was on his way to becoming an R&B great, he had some true gems when he first came out, he was an outstanding writer and had some fresh production, but he lost his identity a few years ago, he should have stayed true to himself, but instead went with the current trends and it backfired

Timberlake's music stay fresh and the quality is high because for one he doesnt rush it, you cant rush great music and ideas, and with Justin I feel like the albums and ideas sort of create themselves as time flies meanwhile Ne-Yo and Usher in the studio forcing it. He also has developed chemistry with one of the best producers of all time, which is another thing other R&B artist from his era lack. The production is something new and fresh and the records overall just sound very well crafted.

SINY!!
Even though its pre-mature, Timbo just upped the stakes for Shock Value 3! For now though.....Ill be :eat::eat: lovely off this for a while.

The album couldnt come at a better time. The music climate is and has been stale for a while, plus with the weather warming up......its gonna be a hot summer!

His first two albums......those were soundtracks for vacations/getaways. Hell, in all honesty, this is that "pre-game in the hotel room, while getting dressed, before you go out" type smooth shyt.

God damn this album is impeccable, these guys did it again! Be interesting to see how it ages, on first listen I'm getting the same feeling as when I heard FS/LS. That future funk / soul :myman:.

Timbo brought his absolute A Game on this ish, immaculate.
