R. Kelly - Playas Get Lonely

Artist: R. Kelly

Producer:

Album: 12 Play: Fourth Quarter

Label: RCA

 Send Ringtones to Your Phone

Originally scheduled to drop sometime this summer, R. Kelly’s new studio album, 12 Play: Fourth Quarter, has been forced into a holding pattern.  Despite having rolled out the ultra-catchy Hair Braider, Kelly’s recent legal issues (for which he has been acquitted of all charges) forced his label, Jive Records, to pause their full-scale promotional operation.  At any rate, with plenty of work to be done, the Pied Piper of R&B has leaked a potential new single, entitled Playas Get Lonely.  Mirroring the vocal arrangement, melody and production style of Lloyd’s Change Your Life, Kelly details the unglamorous reality that even the biggest mack daddy of all can feel a sense of abandonment from time to time.  Poor Robert—if only there were more females interested in spending time with him.

This song first appeared on the R&B / Pop Chart on June 30, 2008

Really hot track from kelz. Surprisingly modern sounding, which never seemed to be his thing. And the most surprising thing yet... it's not dirty!!

I can dig this. It's more wholesome compared to some of his skeevy songs. It's got a positive vibe which i love...

Sounds like he stole a beat that The Dream would sing on. It's a tight joint, I like that he switched it up.

No mole yall! KEllz is a genious! I always said regardless of what he was acused of, greatness always shines through sickness, mistakes and even crimes. His music speaks for itself. This song is well written, different for his normal style, which is as diverse as anyone in music well produced and nicely recorded and mastered. Congratz Kellz on another classic track.

I give it a five because it's a different type of song for R. Kelly. He's always done mature music but none as of late (aside from the Havin a Baby track on Double Up). Come on donjonjon, you can show your sensitive side

Yeah, this song is pretty tight. I give it 3 stars for now but I can see this growing on me or the opposite, getting old fast. Surprisingly good, but not quite feelin the hook after listening to it once.

This song is real different for Kells for a single. The beat is tite. Its good to see he is a free man. Hopefully tp 4 is as good as the 1 and 2. 3 was ok but the worst out of all them.

Patty your too funny. R. Kelly is always dropping bangers. Great job on the production...kudos to the mystery beat maestro. I don't know if I've ever heard Kelly sing over a beat like this; he needs to do more like this. Don't get me wrong, I am a hardcore fan of the smooth R&B tracks but this is different to me.

R. Kelly has been relevent since 1992 for the younguns'. That is crzy. And this track shows he hasn't fallin off.

The beat is mad hot, i dont think this kind of song fits Kells that well though. It gets boring after the first verse, maybe he could have included another singer to spice it up a bit?

Sounds pretty dope! Even if he is using that auto-tune t-pain bullshit. But at least its low in the mix and only in the chorus..
