Ahead of the release of R. Kelly‘s new LP ‘Love Letter’ on December 14th, you can now stream the album in its entirety. Inspired by the soulful sounds of Sam Cooke and Marvin Gaye, the LP is one of two to come from the R&B pioneer – the second being ‘Zodiac’ which is due next year.

I’m really enjoying what the Pied Piper has on offer this go round. For despite opting for a throwback flavoured record this time, the quality of Kelly’s output was not compromised. A testament no doubt to the versatility of a man who remains one of modern R&B’s greats.Versatility being something a few new artists should take note of (see: Trey Songs aka ‘My Sex Sells Gold But Not Platinum’)

This screams pure copycat. This reminds me of Ray Charles the whole stance.
Now this is the Kellz that I love.
Trey’s album out for a year Ready no grammy nomination/ PPP no mention either!
15 weeks and ” When a womans love” Nominated and he shall when for originality R&B song! Also Untitled is up for one and this album has not sold Gold status! Ops it was the international records sells of 4 million that will do it!
R&B King will make history R Kelly baby
REAL Talent at last!!
Trey Songz will never be on R Kelly’s level. He should first try to be on on Chris Brown, Justin Timberlake or Usher’s Level before someone can compare to RKelly.
I wish R. Kelly would go back to TP-2 or some of his earlier classics. I can’t enjoy his music when I feel like he’s playing a character and not just being himself totally.
r. kelly is nothing more than a manifestation of aaron hall. look it up he stole the man’s entire mantra and furthermore can someone tell r kelly that jamie foxx already did the ray thing. why people just cant sing? why do you have to evoke a time period or completely swagger jack a dead artist. when a woman loves seriously he is screaming on that song like he has hemroids !
@Theivy – They both took their singing style from Charlie Wilson. Aaron Hall is nothing but a crackhead with no talent. Jamie Foxx portrayed Ray in a movie that doesn’t mean he did the whole song style. He’s NOT swagger jacking a damn thing. He’s paying homage to his influences Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, and many other soul artists. He already clarified this in an interview. Now STFU and stop hating.
He’s a musical genius!!! YESSS KELLZ! King of R&B!!!!
Not interested in this misogynistic child m*******
@FAILwexy – Then why did you click on the topic, dumbass
I have already pre-ordered my copy! I love R. Kelly’s music! As for you haters, if you have such a problem with the man, why take your time to click on the title, read the content and leave a comment? Stay mad!
Y’all know R. Kelly’s pattern is a real R&B album followed by a ghetto R&B album.
So, y’all betta ENJOY “Love Letter” while you can!
oooh…”Lost In Your Love” is really good!! Reminds me of “Step In the Name of Love”
MJ Who??
THE KING RKelly!!
THEiVY
when a woman loves = BEST song of the year.
This album is INCREDIBLE!! “Lost In Your Love” is MAGICAL!! His vocals on “Radio Message” are absolutely stunning!
This is why R. Kelly is the God of R&B!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He’s just an exceptional talent with a brilliance for music that is so indescribable. A true musical genius!!!

Some people are only saying Ray Charles because thats all you all know. Thats Stevie Wonders Fingertips part 1 or 2. That picture is no where near Ray Charles.
@ s*** did you say mj who ?
mj>kelly in life,artistry,vocals,dancing,writing,producung,sicerety,……….need i go on!!!
15 weeks with one song compared to others who has been out like PPP or Ready( Trey Songz) Usher’s… R Kelly will win the Grammy for ” When a Woamn’s Love”
And don’t be surprise Untilted win’s one also.
For all you 14 year old or 18yr old bleeding hoodrats and gay ass pop tarts! Trey was not welcomed in this grammy nomination party!
Goat Songz is a sheep.
S***…R Kelly is one helluva songwriter and singer. But there was no need to disrespect a man R kelly referred to as his mentor. That was just uncalled for.
Trey was not nominated for anything! Hmmm wonder if the music Industry picked up on his non-talents! Sure they did in fact caught him in the act of being one demensional with trying to be JR.! S** maybe sell on TV, but these record companies need to stop producing plain garbage to these kids who learn nothing but rims/cars and bottle popping.
Hip Hop is dead!
R&B is about love and caring about that woman! Real talk
I think R. Kelly is a better singer than MJ.
get it R
Musically he has always had a genius mind set and he can cover all subject types and sound natural and in his comfort zone.
Greatness artist wise.
Album is great!
F*** what ya heard, R Kelly is the King of R&B and King of music. Period! F***, even the haters are gon buy this album!
Yessssssss! Kellz this is the type of album I need from you…
