Best R&B/Pop Record (Mainstream) of 2010

Nelly - Just a Dream Artwork

Nelly - Just a Dream

Inception, arguably the most talked-about film of 2010, challenged viewers to ponder whether what they were seeing and hearing was reality, or “Just a Dream.” The Jim Jonsin/Rico Love-produced lead single off Nelly's latest LP found the St. Louis mainstay asking a similar question in the wake of a nasty breakup. Here's hoping he is living in the real world – who wants to wake up and watch a Platinum-certified smash dissolve into the ether?

Staff Pick


Bruno Mars - Just the Way You Are Artwork

Bruno Mars - Just the Way You Are

Whether or not you knew the name “Bruno Mars” at the top of 2010, you undoubtedly know it now – and it's all thanks to a little record called “Just the Way You Are.” Single numero uno off the singer/songwriter's debut studio album, this Smeezingtons/Needlz-produced ode to unconditional love left listeners across the globe (Booth staff not excepted) starry-eyed and weak in the knees.

Hey DJBooth, where was Speedin' by Omarion? That song should have easily been a nominee and is one of my top 2 or 3 songs of the year.

My mom just LOVES "Just The Way You Are"...it reminds her of an old Beatles-style song lyrical-wise...almost nobody sings about unconditional love anymore, sad to say...

I agree with the vote. Just a Dream is the best. Just The Way You Are is not my style, and Deuces gets old fast.
