Keri Hilson – No Boys Allowed

Singer-songwriter Keri Hilson has been keeping busy promoting her sophomore album “No Boys Allowed.” It’s current single “Pretty Girl Rock” seems to finally be catching on as it rises on Billboard and as for the rest of the album, Ms. Keri Baby delivers a variety of material on the album which was executive produced by Timbaland and Polow da Don.

“One Night Stand”

Jamie Foxx – Best Night Of My Life

Keyshia Cole – Calling All Hearts

“Calling All Hearts” includes her singles, “I Ain’t Thru” and “Long Way Down” along with jam’s such as “If I Fall In Love Again” and “Sometimes.” R&B singer/songwriter Tank makes an appearance for Keyshia’s personal favorite, “Tired Of Doing Me.” It’s a decent set from Keysh so if you’re a fan of hers you’ll enjoy it.

Avant – The Letter

We have always been a fan of Avant’s music. He has a habit of making some of the greatest R&B songs in the genre – it’s music you can feel. ‘Kiss Goodbye‘ is the new single from the Cleveland native, with a video that illustrates the song’s tones of scandal, betrayal and heartbreak. If you’ve been sleeping on Avant, time to wake up!

“Graduated”

Ghostface Killah – Apollo Kids

Ghostface Killah’s 6th solo album, Apollo Kids drops today. Hate to say it, but who knew? This feels rushed. Another GFK project to go unnoticed. (see: Wizard of Poetry)

9th Wonder & David Banner – Death Of A Popstar

After some pushbacks, David Banner & 9th Wonder’s much anticipated collaborative album Death Of A Popstar finally hits stores. The next single it titled ‘Be With You’ featuring Ludacris.

Mixtape Pick Of The Week

Ho-Ho-Ho… Teairra Mari is not going to let the shelving (and re-shelving) of her album stop her. All she wants for Christmas is to fulfill her undying dreams of being an R&B chick, and the singer just released a new song titled “Stay” which is lifted off her new Christmas mix tape ”The Night Before X-Mas,” hosted by DJ Drama, to be released on Christmas Eve
