R&B ruled Marcus Canty’s playlist in 2012. As part of our ongoing series, the “X Factor” alum sat down with Rap-Up TV to reveal his top 5 albums of the year. Find out why Rihanna’s Unapologetic connected with Marcus, why he fell in love with Miguel’s Kaleidoscope Dream, and which singer keeps R&B alive.
Marcus is hoping that he makes some best-of-the-year lists next year. His debut EP This…Is Marcus Canty arrives March 5 featuring “Used by You” and the Wale-assisted single “In & Out.”
Wow! Look at all the haters here on this glorious day! I’m so proud of Marcus and I know why he’s being interviewed. If yall don’t know who he is now, you definitely will in 2013 because he has some great music coming out. “This…Is Marcus Canty” is out January 22nd baby!
@TEAM CANTY, He has already released great music with ‘Won’t make a fool out of you’, this song was the shit. ‘In & Out’ as well in a different style.
Can’t wait for his album to come out #TeamCantyAllTheWay

Rihanna and Chris Brown two of the best 5 albums??
LOL
I like them both, but…. lest be serious, there are wayyyyyy better albums and artists out there and making really different and unique things.
But I guess this singer doesnt use to hear too much music appart from the mainstream young singers
