Damn Jamie Foxx doing big things too.

Well, yours truly was among those who put him up there at #2. I mostly just bought it because I liked "Love Changes" and "With You", and then I just thought, "Ah, what the hell" and bought the whole album. It's decent and definitely worthy of getting some spin in my G-ride, but it's kinda ironic he calls it "unpredictable" when it actually feels quite calculated for a contemporary R&B record.

Even so, I'm quite surprised the record sold well. I expected he'd at least go Gold after all the success he had with "Gold Digger", but not in the first week. Well, good for him, I guess...he's obviously wanted to establish himself as a singer for over 10 years now, and thanks to his acting career, he got that chance again.
