My condolences tim - I do wish your #1 had survived longer just because you actually took the time to participate in an R&B rankdown! @antigonerising ... You would single me out for the ONE song so far where our opinions have diverged smh. Stop hating! AMP is very pretty and I do not begrudge K. Michelle her one fully non-ratchet moment.

Speaking of Trina...as previously mentioned, Trina and K have recorded several songs together!
"Rich" feat. Yo Gotti and Trina from More Issues Than Vogue.
Absolutely my favorite collabo from them. Trina ATE this. She slid in on the beat so smoothly and talked her good shit!
"Self Made" feat. Trina.
One of her first single attempts when she was signed to Hitz Committee/Jive. Also released a version with Gucci Mane.
"No More." Trina feat. K. Michelle from Diamonds Are Forever.

We keep on The People I Used to Know to knock out another album cut that Kimberly decided needed a low budget music video and somehow forgot how long the song was in the process. :kii: "No Not You" is a fairly stripped down ballad about being tipped off that her suspicion her man is cheating might be true, and she shows off her big pipes here. Fanfare wasn't nearly as big here though as only one Top 10 rank falls, while most slotted list one somewhere in the high teens or the 20s. No bottom 5s though! "Oh, I know you mess up a time or two And I don't hold it against you Oh, somethin' is tellin' me it might be true Oh, I'm just prayin', no, not you!"

Next we have a song that only slid ahead of "No Not You" by a single point, and also finishes only one point behind our next reveal up at #22, showing how close some of these finishes were! "The Right One," a deluxe bonus track lifted from Rebellious Soul, is a boss bitch kiss-off anthem. It proved to be the wrong one for several of y'all as half of its ranks fell in the 20s. Despite that, it did receive two high marks, including from SHOOTER who loses a Top 5 here. "f**k you and all that Blast on Twitter then I'ma blast back You want ratchet then I'ma be that Don't make me call my boys and have yo s**t peeled back"

Enjoy the album opener to K. Michelle's debut effort that shares its name with her reality TV show: EXTRA: "My Life" - K. Michelle (feat. Meek Mill)
This is definitely one of my faves on her debut.

I love her vocal on No, Not You and I will never understand why The Right One didn’t make the main album!

"No Not You" is definitely the song in TPIUTK that I revisit the most. Great track.
Like I said, "The Right One" is a great discovery from this RD. It really should've been included to her debut.

Another of Kimberly's early releases falls just shy of the Top 20, and with "Fallin'" goes two Top 5 ranks, the most of any reveal yet. Despite a pair of high marks for the song, over half of the contingent here was content with dropping this one into the 20s on their list, showing limited fanfare, though my rank was also the lone bottom 5 placement. "Feels like the sun don't even shine no more I dont wanna go outside no more Now that your gone Feels like I'm dying, dying to be back in your arms That's what it feels like baby"

Our first of Kimberly's radio singles from one of her four studio albums is the final song to miss the Top 20, and it did so by only a 1-point margin over the song that wound up finishing just ahead at #20. Unfortunately, that song ain't this one, and we go back to More Issues Than Vogue to eliminate "Ain't You," a song that proved surprisingly divisive with the lists received. A dreamy mid-tempo with a pulsing beat and Kimberly bouncing back and forth between a sultry sung delivery and more demanding tone, it also bounced back and forth during the submission phase on high and low ranks, with two Top 10s and several close calls, but also three bottom 5s and several additional lower rankings. "Oh, I done dodged so many ceremonies Coulda had fifty mil in alimony Give you everything, what you want from me? You know, everybody's got a testimony Like I used to f**k with your old homie You the only one I keep it hundred with, you know"

As we enter the Top 20, we've yet to see anything show up from Kimberly's sophomore effort, Anybody Wanna Buy a Heart?, so I'll take this opportunity to highlight my favorite album cut from the record as our next extra: EXTRA: "Build a Man Intro/Build a Man" - K. Michelle

"Ain't You" is kinda dull to me. It makes better sense within the flow of that album.

Loved this. It sounds like a Fantasia track to me.

Fallin' is the song that made me fall in love with her! Aand the whole Anybody Wanna Buy a Heart? album is such an underrated R&B gem. Nicki is a whole bitch for stealing her title track, too!

We return to reveals to kick off the Top 20 with another of Kimberly's pre-breakthrough singles, leaving her with only one more of those remaining. "I Just Can't Do This" clinched a Top 20 spot over "Ain't You" by a mere 1 point difference. Four Top 10 ranks are lost here, though three bottom 5s also leave, one of which includes my #32 rank. It was tough having to rank anything in last because I like all of these songs, but this one just didn't stand out to me a whole lot and felt a touch demo-y. She looks amazing af in the video though. "I was the hand and you were my glove Tell me what did you do with the man that I loved You used to make me feel that I can fly Now all I wanna do is lay down and die"
