New Videos: R. Kelly – ‘Echo’ & ‘Be My #2’

Published: Friday 26th Mar 2010 by Sam

It appears R. Kelly‘s criminally underrated ‘Untitled’ LP isn’t dead afterall…well not yet anyway. The R&B crooner has just released two videos – one for ‘Echo’ (above) and the other for ‘Be My #2’ (above).

While the songs are some of Kelly’s best work in years, the clips have to be, hands down, the worst of his entire career. Besides being recession-specials, which looked like they were filmed AND edited on his cell phone, the whole shabang is made worse by the fact that there was simply no need for them. I mean really, does it look like any of these videos could do anything to save the album? SMH…

Peep the other travesty after the jump….

Your thoughts?

    @Sam —

    “Recession-Specials?!?!?” ….Bwayahahahahhahahahah!!
    But Sam, do we REALLY need a “Trey Songz” if we ALREADY have R. Kelly? …Is it a “generational-thing”??? I can’t “call-it”; but as-long-as Mr. Kelly is “vertical-and-breathing”, Mr. Songz will ALWAYS get “second-billing”: His upcoming tour with Jay Z – WITHSTANDING!

    X,Y,”and Z” — OUT!

    Was Echo written and produced by The Dream? I’m sick of ella, ella, ella’s. bed, bed, bed’s, you, you, you’s etc, etc, etc’. I thought that when we were in kindergarten we were taught exercises on what word rhymes with the next, but all these repeats in music is getting on my damn nerves.

    Whew. Now that that’s over…I do kinda like the song and the production, lol.

    As for Be My #2, that sounds like some ole 70’s p*** disco music. Dust of the Hi-Fi, break out the 8 tracks and bell bottoms, put the kids to bed and light the insence. It’s gonna be a looooong 4 minutes, lol.

    WTF!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE LOVED THIS SONG FOR A MINUTE. AND THOUGHT IF TO BE RELEASED THIS SONG WITH A ATLEAST DECENT VIDEO WOULD SOMEHOW HELP THE ALBUM.. BUT, THIS IS A MES.. AND IF THE LABEL DOESN’T WANT TO FORK OVER THE DOUGH TO FILM.. KELLS COULD HAVE DUG INTO HIS ACCOUNT AND MADE THIS BETTER. THIS IS SAD.. I STOPPED 25 SECS IN HORRID
