12 Play: 4th Quarter (Unreleased) 2008 Album

R. Kelly

It's said that these thirteen tracks that leaked in mid-2008 were going to make up Kell's official 9th album, that ended up becoming 'Untitled'. In terms of overall quality, I've given them almost identical track rating averages, but I'd say the best on this are better than the best on 'Untitled'. 'Hair Braider'-'Screamer' is a great three track run with 'Playas Get Lonely' clearly standing out as well near the conclusion. Aside from them though, there isn't a lot to rush back to and a lot of it is musically similar to stuff he has put out over the past few albums. As 'Untitled' is as well, this is more hit or miss than most R. Kelly albums are. As usual too though, the best are amazing. Best Tracks: Hair Braider, Skin, Screamer, Playas Get Lonely
