The Adventures of Bobby Ray.

Here we go again. Another rapper I met because of Eminem.
One of these days (maybe in March), a friend of mine (who's a sucker for Paramore) came tell me that Hayley Williams had recorded a song with Em. My frist thought ? 'Why the hell would Em sing with that girl ?' Maybe because the song is great. Maybe because they never got in a studio together. And because it's not hers, it's B.O.B.'s.
I spent quite a while in love with that song, 'Airplanes'. It came in handy. I needed that line, 'Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars ?'. So when I saw on Billboard's site that he had released the album, I was happy to listen to it. And I got even happier.
'Don't Let Me Fall', the first song, is pretty good. But didn't get me in love with it. The second one did, though. And I think it's a single (I'm not very into singles and videos, as a matter of fact). It's 'Nothing on You'. Very cute, great beat. Quite addictive. Then, the third one, 'Past my Shades' is also great. Also got me in love with it. It's powerful and empowering. The fourth is 'Airplanes' (but with Hayley only) and then it's 'Bet I'.
'Bet I' is so amazing, so badass, I can barely stop listening to it! It's awesome, the lyrics, the guests, Bobby even. It's great, really, really great. I can't describe it. Every time now that I feel down, I put it on and dance along. Awesome.
Moving on, the other songs I consider great in this album are 'Magic', 'The Kids' and 'Airplanes' with Hayley and Eminem. But you should always listen to every song, at least a little bit of each, just to find out if it catches your attention. I don't expect my opinion to be absolut. But I gotta say, way to go, Bobby Ray.
