Complete collection of known songs recorded during the era of one-third TLC member T-Boz's unreleased solo debut album "Still Cool" (2011). The effort entered production as early as 2005 with the track "My Heart" being listed as a warm-up demo and later evolving the recording sessions into club-themed material, with the initial offering "Get It, Get It" being leaked to the internet circa fall of 2009. The single unfortunately fell on deaf ears, hence the effort went through a

Partial collection of songs taken from one-third TLC member Chilli's shelved solo debut album entitled "Bipolar" (2008). The project first entered production in 2006 with the working title "Point of View" and was originally due to be led by the Polow da Don-produced single "Straight Jack'em", featuring guest verses by best friend Missy Elliott and rumored introductory vocals by Pepa of legendary hip-hop trio Salt-N-Pepa.

For those who didn't know, long before Ne-Yo ventured out into the spotlight with his debut album "In My Own Words" (2006), he had already composed his very first album on Columbia Records, the cleverly titled "Welcome to the World According to Schaffer" (2001). The album generated only one single, with the somber offering "Lonely, Sad and Blue", which received light rotation on east coast radio stations but failed to impact elsewhere in the states. As consequence, the album

Here's a collection of songs intended for C+C Music Factory-affiliated bunch and underrated R&B trio A.S.K. M.E.'s unreleased debut album "Moving Everybody" (2000). The shelved project was led by the lone single "I Know What You Did", which attained slight radio airplay but failed to successfully impact any form of Billboard chart. Guest features for the album have been rumored to comprise of production duo Nate-Love & Big Mike alongside Chicago's renowned Afro-Puerto Rican R

Firstly shout-out to my bestie @UKnowDaVybez for designing the artwork to this long sought-after effort. Over time, there has not been enough in-depth information disclosing the recording process and expected release of radio personality Miss Jones’ unreleased debut album “Love, Jones” (1994). What we do know for a fact is that there were two singles (“Where I Wanna Be Boy”, “Don’t Front”) released in advance of the project and it was due to be released under StepSun Music E

Rell has to be one of the most unappreciated male voices from the early millennial R&B era. Signed to music mogul Jay Z’s highly reputable Roc-a-Fella Records imprint, Rell would go on to showcase his vocal chops on an array of Roc-related works such as the original motion picture soundtrack to “Streets Is Watching” (1998) alongside guest hopping on fellow labelmates records like Freeway, Memphis Bleek and unquestionably his own mentor Jay Z. Still, with all that credibility

It serves with no regard that Lil' Mo is undoubtedly one of the powerhouse talents from her era that was robbed of so much mainstream recognition thanks in part to her affiliation with a label (Elektra) known for its track-record of underpromoting, or otherwise, shelving singers if their Billboard charting entries aren't up to par with their unrealistic standards. So it should be no surprise that Mo clashed with the label on several occasions when it came to readying the rele

Full collection of songs taken from underrated female R&B quartet Cherish’s shelved debut album “The Moment” (2003). Following their guest appearances on the Cartoon Network “Powerpuff Girls” soundtrack “Power Pop” and Da Brat’s summer 2003 single “In Love with Chu”, Cherish readied their own single during the course of July 2003 as effort to create buzz for their pending debut album. Freshly signed to Warner Bros. Records, Cherish enlisted the help of recurring collaborator

Though you may or may not know, Torrey “T.C.” Carter was due to be the first ever signed male musician to Missy Elliott’s label The Goldmind Inc. With that hype, came a strong lead single (“Take That”) which was due to spike awareness of his anticipated debut project “The Life I Live” (2000). Sadly, his album was canned due to rumored petty label politics at Elektra Records, the parent label of Elliott’s Goldmind imprint. For further clarification and for those who might have

Dating back to 1997, fresh off the success of her debut "Nobody Does It Better" (1996) and a summertime promo single "You Bring the Sunshine", Gina Thompson made the decision to sign to Elektra Records for further opportunities and by means to expose her name further in the mainstream scene as the label was heavily responsible for successful acts like Missy Elliott, Busta Rhymes, AC/DC, Motley Crue and more.   In 1998, after signing to the label, Gina began working heavily on
