R. Kelly's 13th studio album The Buffet is out at the end of the week, but the legendary songwriter has decided to release one more record before the LP impacts. "Lets Be Real Now" unites him with Tinashe, and once again proves that Kells has the versatility to keep up with the current wave of R&B artists. The duet is reminiscent of Drake and Rihanna's "Take Care," incorporating some electronic elements and some driving timpanis.
It sounds like something that could sit comfortably on contemporary R&B radio, while still keeping one foot in traditional songwriting. Look out for the album December 11th.
Quotable Lyrics:
No disrespect to the time that we spent
But boy you must be trippin'
You expect me to post up at home for you
But now the tables are flippin'
And now you wanna blame me
'Cause everyone else realized what they was missin'
I bet you feel dumb now,
Bet you feel so dumb right now
Let's Be Real Now
