For every big-name artist, there is at least one member of the opposite sex who develops a huge “celebrity crush,” attending each and every show and entertaining fantasies of being with their idol. Though most of these dreams never come true, the finally-acquitted R. Kelly wants to buck that trend; on this new record, he fantasizes about picking up his #1 Fan so he and she can make the sweet love he’s described in so many of his songs. Setting the mood is veteran producer Los Da Mystro (best known for helping make J. Holiday‘s Bed), who strikes a perfect balance between Kells’ legendary slow-jam feel and his own recent penchant for high-energy beats. Jive Records has been quiet about the status of R. Kelly’s forthcoming album, but if #1 Fan ends up on the tracklist, it would be a great single selection—it might even help the singer win back a few fans turned off by his legal troubles.

This is a smooth track. The beat is nice and he sounds good. Glad to heard from Kels. This is in rotation, but it has me waiting for his new project.

weak. i've heard a couple of leaked tracks, and this one just doesn't cut it. i mean, jockin The Dream, really?? I wish he had put out Rewind That with Flo Rida, a much better track. But, I am dying for some Kellz...

Sounds kinda like taunting to me... but its a cool song. Kels is probably my favorite R&B singer, so I normally always enjoy his tracks. In rotation for now, but it'll probly grow on me and become a Banger.

WOW:]], since you didn't like that Shady one, it's good you enjoy SOMETHING here (we have music for everyone's tastes).
Overall, it's a good comeback for Kells. Now, if only he can get Jive to roll with it... |

I think Z said what he did because that Kells is a very hard man to reach, and as big a name as he is, he'll likely NEVER find time to step inside the Booth for an interview (I'm sure Z hopes he would sometime, though)

Its amazing how a good majority of these industry heavyweights are starting to fall off. Hopefully Kels can recover, though I dunno if this is the track to do it

Kells fell of hard music wise. Trying to sound like all those replacable wannabe singers. Shit man, I wanna hear his voice and not that stupid robot autotune bullshit. The content also doesn't fit to his age anymore. He's still my fav male singer ever

i don't really know how i should feel about this... i mean, Los delivers a strong instrumental once again... but Rob on autotune sounds sh-tty... i mean, he don't need it.

Making Love to his #1 fan is what got him in this trouble in the first place. This is like the whack version of Im a FLirt. That song was Sik! this 1's ok.

One thing people don't realize is R. Kelly's ability to be versatile and adjust/adapt to any era. He prob could have left the autotone off but he doesn't heavily depend on it. This is a banger. I think people are yearning for those soulfoul anything that comes out doesn't really met their expectations. and Z that 18 year old comment was a below the belt jab. What has Rob ever done to you?

Z no love for kellz? He was acquitted you know. No faith in the system? If So why not?? lol Anyway I'm just bullshittin, this son@ is not his best. And yes that would kinda suck if his #1 fan was a dude, or even worse under 18. Either way kellz can do better.

Let me clear something up, everyone...
I would LOVE to interview Mr. Kelly. However, every time I have reached out to his people (or label reps) they have ignored me. I don't mind when someone gets back to us and says their artist is "busy" or "unavailable at this time," but we don't even get a reply! So, Robert, if you are reading this: E-mail me! Let's make it happen, brother. |

Pretty good, but compared to like the new Jamie Foxx stuff, this is more "typical" and less original, however, its still good.
