not exactly R&B, but that track in places makes me think of towa tei's last century modern.
theres various outkast songs that have a similar vibe. maybe prototype, or pink and blue. NERD might work too. bobby james, etc. dwele's kick out of you too, though thats a bit more jazzy. erykah badu's me and telephone are kinda dreamy too.
anyone heard the electrik red album?
i'm not a cassie superfan to ilx levels of devoted creepiness but i am definitely happy to hear some of these...

"i never knew" is definitely not holy shit avant garde! but it IS highly bubbly + infectious...
