R. KELLY – “SAME GIRL” » “Same Girl” is the second single, featuring Usher, from R. Kelly’s Double Up album in stores now, the video recently premiered exclusively on BET and later appeared on 106 and Park as the New Joint of the Day. In the video, during the first verse, R. Kelly is seen calling Usher at his home in Atlanta, telling him about a woman that he is in love with. As it turns out, Usher is dating the same girl as Kelly, who ends up flying out to meet up with Usher in the chorus. As the second verse begins, Usher picks up R. Kelly at the air port and the two talk about how they each met this girl in their home towns. Eventually, as the two play basketball together, the two come up with the idea to call this girl out on her lies, and show up at dinner with her together. However, at the end of the video, it is revealed that Usher and R. Kelly weren’t messing with the same girl, because the girl just happened to have a twin. Oops, I hope I didn’t spoil it for you, o’well… Blame Wikipedia!

Ciara feat. 50 Cent » “Can’t Leave ‘Em Alone” » LISTEN » (Full) » I know you all been seeing video shots everywhere well “Can’t Leave ‘Em Alone,” featuring 50 Cent, is the official third single from Ciara’s sophomore album Ciara: The Evolution. I want to slap her people, because although this is nice song, it isn’t all that great. They should have released “That’s Right” or maybe “Bang It Up”… something more dancy, especially since it’s summer time. But I guess they’re giving 50 Cent his shine because his album is coming out, this may be a smart thing, I really hope they release “My Love” as a single later along the road though.

Chamillionaire feat. Slick Rick » “Hip Hop Police” » LISTEN » (Full) » Dammit! I was really feeling “Not A Criminal,” but this was confirmed to be the first single from Chamillionaire’s sophomore album Ultimate Victory, the track features Slick Rick and production by Jonathan Rotem – so I guess that’s a plus and why I’m feeling this joint as well. I love Slick Rick, he’s such a story teller, his rhymes are unique and visual to me. I also love the material he contributed to Missy’s album, The Cookbook.
