Having penned hits for the likes of many-an-R&B crooner including Usher, Mario, and more, singer-songwriter Elijah Blake – a lauded performer himself – doesn’t take it lightly when people appoint themselves honorific titles in the genre.
Case in point? Jacquees.
Setting headlines alight in late 2018 when he crowned himself R&B’s leading male monarch (a point he reiterated by titling his sophomore album ‘King of R&B’), the announcement not only garnered criticism but also ridicule from some of R. Kelly, Keith Sweat, and Usher‘s staunchest supporters.
To double down on the fan sentiment, Blake – just a day before Quees’ hometown touch down for the final date of his ‘King of R&B Tour’ – took to Keyshia Cole‘s Fox Soul talk show, ‘One on One,’ to tell viewers the ‘B.E.D.’ singer’s imaginary reign is limited solely to a fast food chain.

No lies detected # factssssss ????
Not even a Burger King maybe he’s a s*** sandwich king that he surely is ahaha
I had to ask my sister who this stranger was because I don’t know where he gets off coming for someone who wouldn’t even let him open up for him.
Ask your sister to help you find your daddy while she’s at it girl.
Who are these girls? I dont know them
The new rnb girls (ari Lennox, sza, summer, ella mai, her, fka twigs, khalid ) are carrying the entire rnb genre on their backs, the men are doing NOTHING.
I cant even name any new rnb boys.
The boys are not doing anything innovative or new.
It’s still the same “I will f**** u with the light on” songs with that annoying rain drop beat.
Absolutely right but Baby I don’t think you were around a few years ago when he was being covered here. David used to write him about how he writes about Normani now so you can imagine how tired we were.
The nerve of Elijah…who has even less hits than Jacques mind you…up there looking like a gay tennis ball
Elijah has written so many hits for artists. So check your facts before you open your mouth
GIRL I MEAN HITS FOR DAYS ????
It doesn’t matter if he has written 100 hits…if people can cared he couldve written himself two or three
ELijah is a shady jealous queen
???? a gay tennis ball!! I’m done
I legit didn’t know he was still making music cos this was the only website that shared his ish regularly back in the day. Happy to see him doing his thing and looking good while doing it.
A gay tennis ball!!!!!!!!! Don’t make me scream. Don’t let Serena see him chile.
?? Wimbledon is calling.
JAcquees is on a sold out tour
Elijah is keyshia’s Lap
Dog
Who winning?
GIRLLLLL ELIJAH HAS HITS EVERYWHERE THAT HE WROTE. SIT DOWN.
No shade but shade but the only reason I knew Of him Is because he was always being mentioned in the articles on here and even that must have stopped because I didn’t know he still made music. On the flip slide he is more talented than Jaquees but people outside of the internet know who Jacquees is.
Elijah who? I remember y’all were trying to make him pop years ago and it never quite happened. Jacquees may sing like a goat in distress but he has a far better career than Elijah could imagine. By the way, that hair looks a mess.
UMMMMM CHECK UR FACTS ELIJAH HAS HITS ON HITS WRITTEN ALL AROUND THE GLOBE INCLUDING AMERICA
Gurl shut up
The most successful song he has ever written is usher’s climax and it peaked at number 17.
He has written only 1 top 20 hit.
The way u are talking as if he has written 100’s of hit.
Gurl sit down and wat that food
Provide receipts for these so-called hits.
I’ll wait………………….
HE WROTE MORE HITS THAN C******* WILL EVER HAVE ?
Y I K E S!
#eviscerated
Ya’ll gonna put some respek on Elijah Blake’s name! I’m personally not a fan lol but he has proven his position within the industry whether you know him or not.
we don’t even know who this man is
Wow!
Elijah gurl you’re throwing major shade ☕️ And I LOVE IT.
He’s only throwing shade because he thinks No one remembers what happened to his career. He was supposed to be the new savior of R&B and I think his people had some kind of deal with the editors on here because they used to go in with the promotion . I searched online and I guess he left the label which may be why he fell off so bad. He legit fell off the face of the earth when they stopped writing about him but I guess that check must have cleared because he is back. Stream Tonight It’s Us.
Awwww leaving paragraphs because you mad he told the truth about Your four foot zero fave?
You mad, huh?
Everybody knows he’s not the King except that one ghetto white lady in his tour promo trailer at the end ? She’s a dedicated fan FOR REAL ? If you want a hard laugh, watch his gymnasium tour promo trailer!
Let me link y’all to it…

Damn this fella is still
Around. I remember when David was shoving Him down our throats trying to get us to buy his music.
This is how I know I’ve been coming here for years because I remember that whole time I was in middle school and ended up buying one of the songs on iTunes just to see what all the hype was about .
Yass that’s what I just commented too.
Yall just don’t know about Grape juice back in the day if you don’t know about Elijah Blake. I’m so happy he’s still making music and on the scene because he’s one of the only r&b artists who can sing and write good songs. Can you post him more because we need top tier people like him to get shine instead of JaQueef. I still have the email I sent David thanking him for putting me on to him .
No lies detected but Jacquees has a career and you don’t, as much you can sing circles around his little ass.
Jaquees can tour and has impact though delusional he may be. Elijah stopped being relevant back when Obama was in office And Rihanna made music . I can put on the tv and see Jacquees but the only time I used to see you was on this page so what’s tea. Ya whole career went down the drain to the point that people needed a blog to remind them you still made music so fall back and come better next time wack.
Yall some haters in here.
One of the Jacquees fans put this on a message board which is why so many of of them are in here hating. We need people like Elijah in the business to keep talent alive so people can respect r&b again , so ima need David to stop wasting his time on flops and show us some real talent again .
You wanna throw shade but when I check your stats you’ve never had a song on the top 100 . You wanna throw shade but you got dropped from your label. You wanna throw shade but the gag is that that’s where your career has been hiding for years. Don’t do it. J is twice the man you will ever be and is making moves you will never make because he is THAT N****. Bowling ball looking a$$
Grape juice done resurrected the dead honey. What in the 2012 mess?
David’s check must have cleared again.
I brought receipts. https://twitter.com/jamarius/status/353186402911006720?s=21 . How dare he come for Jac.
Look at how many low class Imbeciles we have burning holes in their keyboards because a real King of R&B spoke the truth. Most of your mamas are h*** from the early 2000s so I wouldn’t expect you to appreciate good music like us 90s babies. Elijah brother, keep representing the real
And give us some new music for us to make love to. I’ve been waiting on your second album to drop since Shadows and Diamonds.
I just Found him
On Spotify and He released a tonne of new music since then. Hate that I didn’t know this.
J doesn’t even need to respond to this Sisqo impersonator. Chart before you talk about a legend.
Jacquees is king and you are flop because of this nobody knows who you are in France.
You’re clueless about what tf you’re talking about lmfao
U ALL MAD CUZ ELIJAH TOLD THE TRUTH ????????
Jacquees is trash, he can’t sing and he tries way too hard at that, like, this n**** is literally “covering” everybody’s songs, because he obviously thinks he’s better than all singers that’s R&B, he feeds off the attention he gets from making covers of other artists songs, he knows that women would always say that his versions are better than the original artist who made the song, that’s just acting cocky asf in my book, and don’t even get me started on his looks, he’s not even all that attractive, but many women treat him like he’s the only good looking man in the world or some s***, throwing themselves at him with the most nastiest comments that’s considered “h**” behavior.
