    Average song at best. I mean why follow the trend and put Lil Wayne on the track. Adding a rapper 9 times out of 10 ends any chance for a R&B song to be timeless. It dates the song IMO. ERYKAH , you could have done better babe.

    The problem with this track is not Wayne, he actually put in an ok verse, or the beat....its Erykah's incoherent mumbling. I love her, but lets call a ? a ? .

    This is the thing Badu is the type of artist that doesn't have to come out with what u call a typical single. Her musical ability is already established so why follow the trend and put a rapper on a single. She is a known as a trendsetter . I mean if she wanted to put a rapper on a single , why not put one of her baby daddies on it. I know they would have been able to give u better quality than this ish

    As a big fan, I know Erykah loves down south as well as all kinds of Hip-Hop. She appreciates a simple banger every now and again. The last concert of hers I went to she came out to "Pop my Truck" by Wine-O.

    This track is reminiscent of "Danger", which I loved from her. It was very mainstream/ on trend and a rapper could've easily been on that too.

    I thought this song was hot....it has a forgetable verse by Wayne but Bilal and E. Badu carry the song....

    I think its a dope song. I don't even mind Wayne on the track. My only gripe is that it is too repetitive. I believe she could have added more to the "jump up in the air and stay there."

    Anybody know if Bilal is planning on putting out anything of his own? And I heard D'Angelo had something new too.
