Raheem DeVaughn - "Text Messages"

Raheem is re-releasing "Love Behind the Melody," and this is the lead single from it.

I feel like he's selling out. This sounds like an R. Kelly song, and he already did the mainstream R&B thing with "Customer." The lyrics are stupid, but I like the melody, and if it'll get more people to buy "Love Behind the Melody" then I guess it's fine.

[That Skipping Rope.]

The fact that there is a song titled this makes me think the world might be ending soon.

[RedDragon]

Blaahh. This sounds a lot like a R. Kelly song. "Try Again" should have been released instead of this.

[Franck]

This is alright.

[AFRO SAMURAI]

This song is decent but it doesn't warrant a re-release.

[Be Real]

The R. Kelly sound is working for him. This is similar to Customer.

[Jay!Koolie]

This is nothin' special. "Customer" was miles better.

[Grenade]

Goes for adds next week.

I can't believe I missed the "IDK when I'll get there, I'll TTY later, we'll be lovin' ASAP" line.

Whatever gets him more exposure... I love his voice... and the album was fire....

Get it Raheem!
