Bobby Ray Simmons, a.k.a. 21-year-old B.o.B., the “Nothin’ On You” nice boy with nothin’ between him and the Hot 100‘s top spot but Rihanna’s “Rude Boy,” sounds like he’s having a Coldplay moment on the pensive, piano-tinkled new single “Don’t Let Me Fall,” after the jump:
Simmons’ label has already moved up the release date of his debut, B.O.B. Presents: The Adventures of Bobby Ray to April 27, thanks to the success of “Nothin’”; will B.o.B. strike G.o.L.D. twice with “Fall”?

I actually like this better than Nothin On You
This. I can’t stand his 1st single. “Fall” will blow him up much more. I remember despising Ciara’s 1st single “Goodies” but absolutely LOVED her 2nd second single, “1, 2, Step”.
Funny how the earlier post on Lollapalloza’s line-up, no one mentioned that he’s performing this year too….Kinda excited to see him myself!
