Carl Thomas and Vikter Duplaix are both certified romantics. While one is probably more likely to crank up the Marvin, break out the VSOP and light some incense, the other might just spontaneously appear at the window of his ladylove like a valiant prince, with tickets to an unlikely exotic locale and the promise to simply play it by ear. With that in mind, today's Battle of the Beats asks you, which one of these brothers would you rather steal away with on a late night tryst? Both of today's tracks are entitled "Late Night Rendezvous" and have very distinct approaches.
By the way, Carl's So Much Better was so much better than folks gave it credit for. Grown man R&B is endangered, ya'll.

Carl Thomas "Late night redezvous" is my jam! I heard this earlier on a cd my boyfriend made for me and I fell in love with this song. Carl Thomas by all means the winner!!!!
Carl Thomas is the man. I agree his voice gets better with time.

Although Vikter has the sexy quotient on lock, Carl is doing it for it to forever be done in this song. I'm gonna need to cop that last album I see.

Between Barack winning the Democratic nomination and me agreeing with Stoney, this has been a historic week for Black people.
nOvaMaticCarl should have released this as his first single, followed by the duet with Dave Hollister.
