When all is said and done, Ray J. will probably be remembered for two things: one, being the younger brother of his much more famous and talented sister, the singer-actress Brandy; and second, being an ex-boyfriend of model-socialite Kim Kardashian and the guy who performed with her on the infamous Kim Kardashian: Superstar sex tape. One thing that Ray will probably won't be remembered for though, is his music. And his fourth album, All I Feel, is a good example of why. Ray's thin vocals have their moments on a few songs, but on the whole, it might be time for him to start thinking about another career. Seriously.

Time to Switch Up?
If it wasn't for the studio technology that can enhance and augment singers' vocals, Ray J. probably wouldn't have a career as a vocalist at all - unless it was as a rapper. And All I Feel, which will be released on April 8, 2008, is proof positive of that. The album's maddening in that although a few songs are garbage ("I Like To Trick" is the most prominent example) there are more that are either okay or had a lot of potential, including the first single, "Sexy Can I."

There's two major flaws with the album, though: the weak, inconsistent vocals and the over reliance on sex songs. Your Guide to R&B likes sexy tales as much as anybody, but some of the time, Ray goes about it in a clumsy, awkward way, especially on the aforementioned train wreck of a song "I Like To Trick." On the positive side, the album definitely has a strong hip-hop swagger, and guest appearances by the rappers Young Berg, The Game, Styles P and Shorty Mack on various songs enhance the mood and feel of the album, as does the song production by Rodney Jerkins, DJ Quik and others. But unfortunately, Ray's shortcomings as a vocalist hinder the album too much. If you took these exact same songs and re-recorded them with any of a number of other vocalists (Trey Songz, J. Holiday - hell, maybe even Bobby Valentino) and they'd probably sound much better.

Ray J. is four albums deep in a singing career that's contained some controversy over the years, but few hits. In fact, most people think he's a rapper. So with that said, maybe its time for Ray to switch it up and start rhyming. Or at least stop singing.

Ray J Sexy Can I lyrics
(feat. Yung Berg)

Sexy can I
Yeah, Yeahhh
All we wanna know is...

[Chorus:]
Sexy can I, just pardon my manners.
Girl how you shake it, got a playa like (ohhhh)
It's a kodak moment, let me go and get my camera
All I wanna no is, sexy can I.
Sexy can I, hit it from the front,
Then I hit it from the back.
Know you like it like that.
Then we take it to the bed, then we take it to the floor
Then we chill for a second, then were back at it for more
Sexy can I, just pardon my manners.
Girl how you shake it, got a playa like (ohhhh)
It's a kodak moment, let me go and get my camera
All I wanna know is, sexy can I.

[Young Berg:]
Wat up Lil mama, it's ya boy Youngin
G5 dippin, lui vuitton luggage (ay)
Gotta love it, ya boy so fly
All the ladies go (ohhh) when a nigga ride by.
Gucci on the feet, Marc Jacob on the thigh
She wanna ride or die with ya boy in the Chi.
That's right, so I let her kiss the prince
Her boyfriend, she ain't missed him since.
SEXY CAN I

[Ray J:]
Sexy can I, just pardon my manners.
Girl how you shake it, got a playa like (ohhhh)
It's a kodak moment, let me go and get my camera
All I wanna know is, sexy can I.
Sexy can I, keep it on the low.
Got a girl at the crib, we can take it to the moe-moe.
You can bring a friend, or you can ride solo.
Let me get my camera, so we can take a photo.
(Oh, ohh, ohh) go shawty, go shawty.
Baby when we make love it's like, (Oh, ohh, ohh)
(I don't know what your man is like but shawty all I want to know is)
Sexy can I.

Sexy can I, visit you at work
When you sliding down the pole,
No panties, no shirt.
Then you climb back up the pole,
Then you drop and do a splitts.
How you make that booty drop,
Baby damn, u is a mess
(Oh, ohh, ohh)go shawty, go shawty.
I make it rain in the club like (Oh, ohh, ohh)
(I don't know what your man is like but baby all I want to know is)
Sexy can I

Sexy can I, just pardon my manners.
Girl how you shake it, got a playa like (ohhhh)
It's a kodak moment, let me go and get my camera
All I wanna know is, sexy can I.

[Young Berg:]
I don't care who's ya boy hittin, or who Ray's melon
When I give it to her, I know that she ain't tellin'
See I'm a go getta and she a go getta
You already know she a...
(Sexy can I)
Sexy can I sing for you red-eye
Fresh out the pool no towel
Let it air dry.
And if you ain't f*ckin tonight
You can watch our tour bus go by

[Chorus:]
Sexy can I, just pardon my manners.
Girl how you shake it, got a playa like (oh baby)
It's a kodak moment, let me go and get my camera
All I wanna know is, sexy can I.
Sexy can I, hit it from the front,
Then I hit it from the back.
Know you like it like that.
Then we take it to the bed, then we take it to the floor
Then we chill for a second, then were back at it for more
Sexy can I, just pardon my manners.
Girl how you shake it, got a playa like (ohhh)
It's a kodak moment, let me go and get my camera
All I wanna know is, sexy can I.
