The crazy release of videos continues this week as we said goodbye to November and dove in to the Christmas ready December.

Some A-list rappers stepped up to the plate again, but the new blood continues to impress week by week.
The craziest video of the week goes to a producer, though. But expect to see Pittsburgh, Philly, New Jersey, the Bay Area, and Queens all representing.

After releasing the smash hit “Let Me Love You” and watching it climb up the top of the Hot 100 charts, Ne-Yo is returning with the new single off R.E.D., the Fabolous and Diddy-featured “Should Be You.” The track has a bit of that ’90s feel, but it’s surprisingly not a dance record.
Be sure to support Ne-Yo and cop his album if you haven’t already.

Lights Off: Baby Making Music For The Bedroom
Please, and thank you.
We’ve been wondering where the baby music has been lately. We’ve heard some stuff drop here and there, but we remember cooking up mixes every month at the rate R&B was popping off back in the good days. They just don’t make R&B like they used to.
That is until we heard Miguel’s Kaleidoscope Dream (it dropped this past week). Yeah, Trey Songz and Usher can still hold the crown when it comes to baby making songs at times, but you know the game now: Make an international club banger and who cares about smooth R&B when the world wants to party. Who has time to seduce these hoes?
But that’s why we’re making this for you, ladies. Because you still love hanging on to the dear hope of being courted by a decent young fella. A guy that can still light a candle and not manhandle you like a one night stand, but rather an actual female with feelings.
You just want to take it nice and slow.
Luckily for you, we’ve got the recipe. Back-to-back fire from the baby making music department. We must admit, not all of these songs are the fairy tales of your imagination. This isn’t the Boyz II Men “I’ll Make Love To You” hour. This is 2012.
Ne-Yo – R.E.D. (Artwork x Tracklist)
As a follow-up to his 2010 album “Libra Scale,” singer-songwriter Ne-Yo has been preparing to release his upcoming fifth studio album “R.E.D. (Realizing Every Dream).” With summer hits like “Lazy Love,” “Let Me Love You (Until You Learn to Love Yourself)” and most recently “Don’t Make “Em Like You,” longtime fans of Ne-Yo should look forward to this album as he’s currently been in a good space professionally as well as privately.
The album will feature production from Ne-Yo himself as he reunites with longtime producer StarGate along with No I.D., The Underdogs Salaam Remi and Mike Di Scala to name a few and will only have one feature from Wiz Khalifa.
Check after the jump for the 13-track track listings.
