Thread: R. Kelly Remixes Lil Wayne, The-Dream, Drake For His First Mixtape

Any word on when / where the demo tape will be available to download in good quality mp3s?

Damn did yall see how many views that mixtape got in just a few hours

I love it bu the needed to do a remix to blame it. he would have ripped that apart.

Okay, I have been soooooooo tired of the autotune for quite some time now so I wasn't sure how this mixtape was going to go over with me. But now that I have listened to it a few times. I actually do like the flow of it and found a nice surprise in Bangin the Headboard. And after listening to Makin' Me Wanna a few times I like it more than when I first listen to it. The only track I really can't stand is Turn my Swag....not even my beloved Kellz can help that crap!

I am ready for some straight RnB from him but I am not at all disappointed.

I've been to a big music store here in Stuttgart this morning. They do import Mixtapes from the US, and they had various DJ Drama Mixtapes, including one from Fabolous, which came out not too long ago.

Unfortunately they didn't have this one yet, the woman told me though that they'll propably get it by next week

R. Kelly Explains New Album Title
If you buy an album, you can call it whatever you want — at least R. Kelly thinks so. In February, Kelly partied in Atlanta club the Velvet Room with Jazze Pha, DJ Infamous and others and told the crowd that his new album didn't have a name.

"ATL, what's up? I got my little brother right here, Jazze Pha," he said, standing in the VIP balcony. "I'm out here working on the mutha----in' album. I'm working on a new album, and I'm calling that mutha----a Untitled. Y'all call it what y'all want."

On Monday, the Pied Piper of R&B told MTV News why he decided to go the Nas route when titling his LP.



"I've been in the biz 17 years, so everyone is used to me naming my records," he said. "So I wanted to mix it up a little. I want whoever listens to the record to call it what they want, name it themselves based on what they feel listening to the music."

This week, Kelly drops his first-ever mixtape, The Demo Tape. "I took it all the way back to when I first started; all I had was my demo," he said of the street project. "It's a way to start fresh, be humble. It's like being a new artist. This is my demo tape for my fans."

Kelly worked with DJ Drama and DJ Skee on the project, which combines Kelly's remixes, previously unreleased joints and new cuts from the forthcoming album.

"He had reached out awhile ago for the mixtape," Drama said of Kelly's tape. "So I know it's been on his mind. I think it finally just came together for him. It's a song on there called 'Bangin' the Head Board.' Problem! He redid Dream's 'Kelly's 12 Play.' Ridiculous. He gave some exclusives from the album — it's some heat on there. Somebody that big doing a mixtape is dope. It's keeping the game alive. It's necessary."

Drama said he expects Kells to shoot videos for at least a couple of the tracks on the mixtape. "We're trying to go all the way," the man behind the Gangsta Grillz mixtape series revealed. "It would be better to take advantage of all forums at the moment."

I don't get it. so what's the title of the album gonna be? "Untitled" or won't it have a title at all (which isn't possible, is it?)

It's possible to have a album with no title... Nas last album title was referred to as Untitled but when you actually bought the cd nothing was on the cover or inlay but Nas

ah ok, I didn't know that...that's why I didn't get the line reffering to the Nas route. thanks KRX.

I like this idea.

Probably a video for "Supa Man High" that's the rumor i heard
