Thread: R. Kelly's SIGNATURE songs written for other artists

B2k had another song called Bump That.. And that has Kellz written all over it...

Rob wrote 'What a Girl Wants', 'Girlfriend', 'Girlfriend Remix', 'Bump, Bump, Bump', 'Bump That', and 'Badaboom' for B2K. 'Dancing' the song recorded by Frankie J was also meant to be for B2K. If Im not mistaken 'Bump That' was meant to be on 'Chocolate Factory' before he switched lanes, and that song is actually the remix of 'Bump, Bump, Bump'. Listen to the end and you hear Omarion sing:

"Its the Remix, Its the Remix,
B2K and Pied Piper...
Its the Remix, Its the Remix,
B2K and Pied Piper...
We just wildin' out, off in the Club,
Came with Bump the Original...
Went Number One!"

'Badaboom' has alwasy been more than contentious for me because even though Rob doesnt have credits for it, I think Chris Stokes pulled some shady junk on that. Lyrically, delivery, and adlibs are signature R. Kelly plus if you listen to it back to back with 'Hypnotic' (by Syleena Johnson) the instrumentals sounds like edits of each other. The killer for me though is the 'Dave Mac' reference along with the "Fa la, la la, la" which is a vocal run taken from 'Touched a Dream'. Further more the writing credits are attributed to Marques Houston and Tony Scott which is exacly what happened with 'Pop That Booty' which Marques Houston himself said Rob gave him for free. The final nail in the coffin for me was the fact that it didnt appear on B2K's greatest hits CD which only consisted of 10 songs, and 'Badaboom' was certainly in their Top 5 most successful (so I think Chris Stokes may have encountered some problems clearing 'Badaboom').

Moving on, example of songs which are signature R. Kelly:

'JS - Ice Cream'

and

'Tony Sunshine - Everywhere I Go'

always a had a feel that badaboom was a kells track...
