Hi,
I am looking for any sugggestion of good new r&b and hip hop songs. I had my car radio stolen about 2 years ago and I haven't had a chance to get my cd/mp3 player installed in my car until now. So could you guys help out and tell me what are some good r&b songs out there and what are your favorites.
Thanks a lot.
