7. Rell Feat. Kanye West & Consequence - Real Love
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n8qwPjXCpk When Kanye first signed with Roc-A-Fella Records the label was in its undisputed prime. You had Jay-Z, Memphis Bleek, Beanie Sigel, Freeway, Cam'ron, DJ Clue, Young Gunz, and many more. However, not many people remember the label's lone R&B act Rell (Christión doesn't count). People don't seem to remember Rell because he never actually put out an album, though he did have a number of catchy singles and this was one of them. Produced by Kanye he samples A Tribe Called Quest's "Electric Relaxation" for the beat. It's nothing too special; just you're standard R&B crooning over a smooth instrumental. And while the Rell thing never happened, he did leave us with this track, on which Kanye was clearly the star.
