Ciara exactly one month ago at the American Music Awards on November 24, 2013. She doesn't look pregnant at all here, maybe that sweatshirt was extremely baggy & that's just it.

The 21 Best Hip Hop and R&B Albums/EPs of 2013
1. GoldenHeart by Dawn Richard - From the Intro to Bonus Tracks (on the physical copy), Dawn takes you on a mystical, fantasy-like
journey during medieval times with dungeons and dragons, along with knights in
shining armor. Artistic huh? Exactly, has there ever been a CD you described
using those words? This album is very innovative, influenced by greats like
Prince and Phil Collins, Dawn Richard has created a masterpiece about triumph,
love, heartbreak, and struggles. It has many genres within an R&B spectrum,
it is like a progressive/alternative R&B sound, but it does have a hip hop
vibe to it. Best Songs: Northern Lights, NLX, Gleaux, 86, Frequency, Warfaire,
Tug of War, Ode to You, [300], Return of The Queen, Goliath, Pretty Wicked
Things, Wild N’ Young
2. Talk a Good Game by Kelly Rowland - Hip
Hop & R&B at its finest. It’s like Kelly will never get her shine, I’m
not sure if she needs a new PR team or what, but song after song is single
worthy. Her voice is so pure and her sound is so fresh, she can go from a smooth
mid-tempo R&B track to a street anthem to a sexy bedroom jam. With some of
the best producers and writers (Pharrell & The-Dream), Kelly released maybe
her best album to date, which deserves at least 3 more videos going into the
New Year. Best Songs: Sky Waker, Down on Love, Talk a Good Game, I Remember,
Red Wine, Number 1, Street Life, Love Me Til’ I Die, This is Love, Gone, Stand
In Front of Me
3. Long.Live.A$AP by A$AP Rocky – The most artistic Rap Album of the year goes to this Harlem native. With verses like "Roaches on the wall, roaches on the dresser/Everybody had roaches but our roaches ain’t respect us", A$AP offers visuals of the "struggle", even though he speaks highly about fashion designers & their high end brands too "$1,000 drawers just to hold my balls". He was able to put New York back on the map in the Rap industry. The album includes influences from Wu-Tang Clan with a dark gritty sound, while his playful lyrical content is reminiscent of other Harlem natives: Cam'Ron and The Diplomats. His signature chopped & screwed vocals (which orginated in the South), makes the album acceptable to Rap fans of any region. Best Songs:
Long Live A$AP, Goldie, PMW, LVL, Hell, Pain, Fuckin’ Problems, Wild For The Night,
1 Train, Fashion Killa, Suddenly
4. Born Sinner by J. Cole – Best Songs:
