Since finishing the last leg of his nationwide Double Up Tour, R. Kelly has been busy in the studio recording his new album, 12 Play: 4th Quarter.  In what will be the last chapter (then again, with Kelly you never know) of his 12 Play album series (12 Play,TP2.com, TP3: Reloaded), the Chicagoan has kicked off the campaign with the new single Hair Braider.  Using the never-going-to-die-vocoder effect, Kelly sings about tipping his hair stylist similar to his strippers.  Produced by up-incoming production duo Tha Bizness (J-Hen and Dow Jones), who have worked with will.i.am, Young Buck, and Ky-Mani Marley to name a few, Hair Braider should pave the way for Kelly’s album release this summer.

R. Kelly dropping the voice box on us. It was only a matter of time. Kels knows how to take the most basic words and subject matter and turn it into a creative chef d'oeuvre. Chill beat and singing.

Voice Box was not needed in my opinion. It's not super bad, but it's nothing to get all excited about either. It deserves 2 stars.

Clearly R Kelly is just f**kin with everyone at this point. In case you haven't noticed, he's apparently determined to figure out just how ridiculous he can make his songs (hello Sex Zoo) and still have people buy his album. Well, Kells has suceeded again. I give it 2 stars for musical quality, and an additional star because he's the only artist alive who could pull off a song called "hairbraider."

I'm so biased against R. Kelly. There are a few songs that I love (Step in the name of love, U saved me, etc.) but all the other childish/immature topics -- i can't stand. This song reminds me of R.Kelly trying to be a youthful individual.

I think he's just paving the way to express yourself on the R&B tip. I'm sure he'll reinvent the way one expresses love, hurt, happiness, faithfulness, etc. He's been in the game for a long time and has the freedom to switch it up. He's crooning but in a different style. Nevertheless, the R in R&B will make cuts for all the fans that continue to listen to his songs. I'll say it first... he will produce/coordinate "You will know" updated version pretty soon.

I've been listening to this over and I like it much better than I did the first time. I can hear this song coming on at the club having everybody dancing slow and signing the words. I'm not a fan of the vocoder because he's voice is tight enough but oh well.

A picture of Kelly with golden blond hair was posted on his MySpace page recently, but his rep swears that the R. hasn't gone Sisqó on us. The look was specifically created for the video, which was shot in Chicago a couple of weeks ago.
