If any of you follow me on Twitter, then you may already know I'm obsessed with this specific Ne-yo track. It's titled "Stress Reliever." And it's sexy and nasty and dirty. It's just my kind of song. It's graphic without really going there. It's grown and sexy. We all have stress. We should all have someone who fits the definition of a stress reliever. Get into these lyrics. Shaffer Chimere Smith did his thing in this. I love every single thing about this track. The melody is right, the lyrics are tight, and his voice is perfection. I can see no wrong in this track. Take a listen. Thank me later.
"I could be tired
but you wake me up with it
I could be busy
I make time to go get it
We could be eating
that’s when she starts to flirt Looking at me talking bout
Daddy, bring me my dessert.
[Chorus]
She knows what she doing
She knows what that does Everytime she do it
set it off no matter what oh, oh
She knows what she doing
She knows what I love
Everytime she do it,
set it off, no matter whatoh, oh
She set it off no matter what.
She tells me things like
Things like I’m her favorite flavor And there’s not a lollipop
that could ever compare ya
Uh, stress reliever,
Service to her king
She say daddy come & feed me, And I know just what she mean..."
RaVaughn is Ne-yo's new artist. "Better Be Good" is her first single. It features Wale. I like her a lot. I'm still rocking with her mixtape. Can't wait to hear her debut. I know it will be great because she can sing & she has Ne-yo on her team.
"Imma give you this oowee
make a fellow spend money that he don’t got
Cause it’s that hot,
better be good
You better, you better be good to me
yeah you better, you better be good to me
If I’ma give you this oooh damn, show enough
Keep a man at home when I put it on
You better be good
You better, you better be good to me, yeah
You better, you better be good to me
If I’ma give you this lord have mercy, keep you thirsty
I’ma need you to prove you’re worthy
You won’t find another like this, Since you know that you know what to do with it
Baby what I’ve got, one and only And if you want this love, go and show me
But you gotta be good
You better, you better be good to me, yeah
You better, you better be good to me
This love here is one and only
You better, you better be good to me,
yeah you better, you better be good to me..."

Get Into It: Ne-yo's "R.E.D."
Ne-yo is one of my favorite voices/songwriters of the last 7 years. I've been a fan since his first single. I've blogged about him before here and here. There is something about his music that always makes me feel good. Always. He has the ability to create wonderful works of art. His new cd "R.E.D." drops on Election Day, Tuesday, November 6th. "R.E.D." stands for "realizing every dream." The cd was first titled "The Cracks In Mr. Perfect" which I thought was a dope title. I can say that his last project was not that great. "Libra Scale" was more miss than hit. I was not happy with it. Ne-yo has redeemed himself. He is back with great music.
"R.E.D." is just great music. I really enjoyed this cd from beginning to end. The vibe of the cd is just really chill. I didn't skip any songs. It just feels like a Ne-yo cd. It has that Ne-yo feel from his earlier cd's. I am very happy that he has returned to his roots. This is a very good look for him. He has a hit on his hands. He has a lot of single worthy tracks on his hand. I heard it and love it. Hope you guys do as well. Go ahead an get into it. Here's my review of the songs off "R.E.D."
"Cracks In Mr. Perfect" - This song was what the album was supposed to be titled. Very honest track. I love the vulnerability that Shaffer shows here.
"Lazy Love" - This is his current single and it is amazing. It is catchy and sexy as hell. I've loved it since I first heard it.
"Let Me Love You (Until You Learn To Love Yourself)" - This is a very Ero-pop dance track. I am never hear fro that genre...not even from one of my favorite artists.
"Miss Right" - Is a very laid back track. I dig it. Who wouldn't want to be their man's "Miss Right?"
"Jealous" - We've all felt this way at some time. I found myself two stepping to this one.
"Don't Make Em Like You (feat Wiz Khalifa)" - Love this. The lyrics are very dope. I'm not a fan of Wiz but he's cool on this one.
"Be The One" - I love everything about this track. It has a groovy feel to it.
"Stress Reliever" - This song is perfect lusty music. It's very sexual. Ne-yo is good for dropping that one truly sexy track into his projects. One of my favorites.
"She Is (feat Tim McGraw)" - From the title/feature alone, I was a little apprehensive. It actually works.
"Carry On (Her Letter To Him)" - This seems like it was a reference track. It just seems out of place on his cd.
"Forever Now" - Another dance track. Unlike the other one, I actually like this one.
"Shut Me Down" - This is a mid-tempo song that I really like. I prefer Ne-yo on ballads but this works. "For what its worth, I'm in love with you" my favorite line.
"Unconditional" - Another track that will get a lot of play with me. It's just my type of song.
"Should Be You (feat. Fabolous & Diddy)" - Any time that Ne-yo and Fab hook up on a track, it is golden. Think I'm kidding, see "Make Me Better" and "She Got Her Own (remix)." This track is no different. Love it. Let's just forget that Diddy makes a lackluster appearance.
"My Other Gun" - This is a love song. Kinda like a Bonnie and Clyde ode to his ride or die chick. I dig it.
"Alone With You (Maddie's Song)" - This track is dedicated to his daughter. I love when artists write about their kids. Great Daddy-daughter song.
"Let's Go" - Not my type of song.

Classic Music: Ne-yo "In My Own Words"
The very first time I heard Ne-yo's debut single "Stay" I was a fan. His voice made me happy. I wanted to know more about him. So I read up on the newcomer. Found out all about the singer/songwriter who's debut cd "In My Own Words" would be out the following February. "Stay" didn't get a lot of radio play but it was a hit to me. It wouldn't be until his second single that the world would sit up & take notice. "So Sick" was a smash hit. Everyone could relate to being heartsick over a past love. The song was in constant rotation on the radio & video shows. This was the beginning of Ne-yo's journey.
IMOW is classic to me because I loved every song. Every track was a potential single. Almost 6 years later, I'm still playing it. I have a feeling that 60 years from now, it will still get played. The record label picked the perfect singles. The videos were just right for the songs. Ne-yo's voice and lyrics were everything on this cd. I am a uber fan. This cd will always reminds me of living in Cali. It was the first cd I purchased when I moved. I played it all the time. It's amazing to see his growth as an artist. Ne-yo also gives a great concert. I just really love his voice and his lyrics. Enjoy my favorite tracks below.
