B.o.B is riding high on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Nothin’ On You” (it’s currently #2, just behind Rihanna’s “Rude Boy”), and today his new rock ‘n’ rap jam “Don’t Let Me Fall” was made available on iTunes. During an appearance on BET’s 106 & Park last month, the Atlanta artist promised his upcoming album The Adventures Of Bobby Ray (out April 27) would be a blend of hip hop, rock, country, bluegrass and reggae tunes—and from what we’ve heard so far, he wasn’t kidding! Have a listen to “Don’t Let Me Fall” after the jump.

(The virtual one-man band also plays French horn and the trumpet on his upcoming LP!)
As mentioned earlier today, B.o.B will showcase his many talents on stage at Lollapalooza in August. What do you think—does “Don’t Let Me Fall” have the hit potential that “Nothin’ On You” has already displayed?
his lyrics are actually intelligent and he doesn't rap about girls, parties, and being amazingly wasted. I like! Please don't fall prey to mainstream music–keep your style, B.o.B.!
