He's probably the most talented guy I've heard since Em himself. Sings, produces, raps, he's top at all of them and just has his own sound going on.

Yet on his debut... He has like 4 true solo tracks. Pain in the ass.

he can do everything so i dont know why he has so many features
the best songs so far are his solo tracks

Yeah I know. It's very annoying. He's so much better by himself.

I think alot of the feats is just choruses... Anyway's I like lots of feats as long as there aren't to many guest verses so I'm happy :D

But B.o.B is the best at his own choruses. He's better than any of his guests at all aspects - Besides Em, lyrically and verse wise.

His choruses are incredible - "Goodnite", "The Rain", "Don't Feel so Good" etc.

True that. Should probably have fewer feats, but I belive the feats he chose wil be great, but we'll wait and see.

I wouldnt say B.o.B is better than Lupe in terms of rapping ability.

Well either way, I don't want other guys on a B.o.B album. If I wanna hear Lupe I'll buy Lupe's album. Sick to death of seeing like 80% of the tracks featuring other people on.

I agree, but then, you could say the same about the Em collab. If you want to hear Em you'll buy R2. I do agree that feature heavy albums are annoying especially with somone like Bobby Ray who is so versatile it's not like he needs features.

Yeah but like 3-5 max. That's all Em ever has. On Relapse he had 2.

I buy a solo album to hear that solo artist. But given how talented B.o.B is by himself, the fact that 8 out of 12 tracks are features, that's just disappointing and annoying.

I'm not surprised or, for the most part, disappointed with the tracklist. There are artists like Em, Mos Def, Nas & Jay where if they put out an album with more than 3-5 guests, I would be pissed (Blueprint 3 still picking up dust), but then there are artists like B.o.B & Cudi where I didn't expect any less, and that's good, because it works for them.

B.o.B is one of those artists that has alot of versatility and as such finds alot of chemistry in almost everyone he works with. Hell, he even makes Asher seem dope when they get on track together. The guest appearances on his songs are alot more "cohesive" than alot of other mainstream rappers and doesn't really alter or ruin the song for me. (Ex: The Bruno Mars hook on the 1st single was brilliant and I'm sure the Em verse is going to be beast)
