Underrated Songs by Popular Artists

[JReck]

I was browsing my iTunes playlist tonight and realize there are a lot of good songs by well-known artists that for some reason were never played on the radio or released as singles. I'm hoping you guys can help me discover some good songs I've never heard. Here are some of mine (I'm a big R&B guy, but like all kinds)

2pac-Thug Passion, My Block (remix)
Akon-Don't Let Up, Keep on Calling
Bone Thugs-Resurrection(Paper Paper)
Boyz II Men-Human II
Brian McKnight-I Want You Now
Coolio-Ghetto Highlights
Frankie J-Still
Ja Rule-THe Manual
Jaheim-Anything from Ghetto Classics album
Jamie Foxx-Do What it Do
Kanye West-Family Business
Lil Wayne-Receipt
LL Cool J-We're Gonna Make It
NeYo-Let Me Get THis Right
Omarion-I Wish
R Kelly-Slow Wind (Remix)

One that sticks out to me is "Gone" by Kanye West and Cam'ron. I don't remember ever hearing that song on the radio.

I absolutely love Trey Songz "Wonder Woman". It was released as a single and a video but didn't make much noise. I've listened to the song everyday for about 2 months and still haven't got tired of it yet.


Another one that comes to mind is LL Cool J's "Cant Explain It" off his DEFinition album.

Yea, from what it says on my Ipod, it list Danja and Timberland as the producers. Doesn't matter to me. Trey murdered that beat. Its my favorite R&B song of this year plus it gave me newfound respect for dudes talents. Plus I'd like to thank him as well, got some really fantastic and memorable cooch with this song playing on repeat.

3 Doors Down - Here By Me
The Calling - Stigmatized
Default - The Way We Were
Van Halen - Panama (maybe it's not or it wasn't then, but the only recent time I've heard this song was in the Superbad previews, and I'm not sure how underrated it is otherwise)
