Longtime R&B sensation, R.Kelly,\u00a0 makes a comeback with his 10th studio album, \u201cLove Letter.\u201d It includes two of his hit singles \u201cWhen A Woman Loves\u201d and \u201cLove Letter.\u201d<\/p>\n

The self proclaimed \u201cPied Piper\u201d of R&B is no rookie to the game. R.Kelly made his solo debut in the early 1990\u2019s with tracks such as \u201cSeems Like You\u2019re Ready\u201d and \u201cBump N\u2019 Grind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although R.Kelly has been in the game for at least 25 years it feels as though he is just coming out with his first CD every time he releases a new one.<\/p>\n

Even though his last album \u201cUntitled\u201d was a complete failure, he made a major recovery with his latest disk.<\/p>\n

The single, \u201cLove Letter,\u201d is sure to be played at many weddings, since it is a beautiful, artistic, and lyrical masterpiece. The way the lyrics flow with the music puts you in a daze.<\/p>\n

According to leisureblogs.com,\u00a0 Kells said, \u201cI wanna bring love songs back to the radio.\u201d<\/p>\n

The blog further states: In his song \u201cLost In Your Love,\u201d he serves up a series of tributes to heroes past, a personal tour of soul history. He tributes Sade in the sensual sway of \u201cNumber One Hit,\u201d channels Micheal Jackson\u2019s keening cries on \u201cNot Feelin\u2019 The Love,\u201d the doo-wop of the Dells and Spaniels on \u201cRadio Message,\u201d a Motown style co-ed duet with K.Michelle on Love Is,\u201d Sam Cooke\u2019s bring it on home to me empathy on \u201cHow Do I Tell Her,\u201d and the pleading desperation of Percy Sledge on \u201cWhen A Woman Loves.\u201d<\/p>\n

I agree with leisureblogs.com, because every single song on the album has an old school feel to it. R.Kelly channeled his old school side to compile a Motown remake. The Motown feel to the CD gives the listeners a different outlook on the singer.<\/p>\n

Kelly becomes a bit personal and gets back on his freaky side in the song \u201cTaxi\u201d and goes back into his love side, as stated before, in the song \u201cLove Letter.\u201d<\/p>\n

I wouldn\u2019t say R.Kelly\u2019s album is his best work yet, but it had me moving in my seat and having flashbacks to the 70\u2019s as if I was there. I say buy \u201cLove Letter\u201d and judge it for yourself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
