Yeah, this song is great. 2 for 2 with the singles, if this song is indeed a single.

I'm so glad the full version is finally out. I got tired of playing the mixtape version...too much of a tease.

I'm glad they kept Work From Home, Right Here Right Now, They Dont Give, Left Right, Tell Him I Love Him, and 11:11. Also glad they didn't put Gasoline. Can't wait to hear the others!

They need to kick in some kind of promo if they seriously want to drop on August 21st.

If I had my eyes shut, I would almost swear that was Aaliyah singing...almost afraid to post that.

As a huge fan of Jordin's, this is honestly the song I have been waiting to hear from her for 6 years...

Geez, I love it. I love it so much!! She looks great, the video is great in HD, and it's all just so much better than the first single. Great job!

She has such a pretty face. Why not show it. One of the more baffling choices for an album cover but...small potatoes. I'm more pressed about including freaking SHAGGY on an album in 2015. What...did Sean Paul or Sean Kingston cost too much?

So far she's 2 for 2 with me. I LOVED "Double Tap" and will be purchasing this tomorrow on ITunes. I'm really liking the Urban side of her. I liked "Battleship" the single but I remember being completely disappointed with the rest of the cd.
Oh and is she dating Sage The Gemini?

I'm not a big fan of urban or r&b music in general so I was afraid I wouldn't love anything from this Jordin era. Skippin was cute and fine but it's not on my iPhone anymore. DT was ok just not my preferred cup of tea. I watched the video and I couldn't stop listening to it, and then repeating it (x5)! I LOVE IT!!! The song's vibe is haunting. The strings and harmonizing vocals give it some sort of pop layering that I enjoy. Her voice sounds great. And she looks VERY SEXY! At the beginning she reminded me a bit of Paula Abdul then Janet. I really hope the label gives this a big push. There's no reason why this couldn't be an R&B hit! And a crossover to Pop. Where did DT peak, by the way? That could be a factor, but this should be treated as the single to launch the album. Best of luck to Jordin!!

Is her latest single "Right Here Right Now" doing anything yet? I remember "Double Tap" got some airplay at Urban stations. Didn't it reach the Top 50?

What I'm angry about is the album will arrive DOA and I know they won't pump it post release

Yeah, I'm seriously lost as to who at Sony is smoking what to assume it's a good to release her album with no fanfare.

Yeah, I'm seriously lost as to who at RCA is smoking what to assume it's a good to release her album with no fanfare. She's not still under RCA though, right? She's still with Sony, but Salaam Remi took her in on his label. If she was still with RCA we'd probably still be hearing crickets chirping, so unfortunately this is actually a step up. But it seems rather obvious that she isn't getting the support she needs because the money's just not there...I don't even know what to suggest they "should" be doing because I am not really sure they are capable of doing much. Really Jordin would have been better off being released from Sony completely so that she would be free to shop around and either find another label that could do more for her or go completely indie. Now, this is no excuse for her management to not be booking her gigs or trying to find her some syncing opportunities. Get her songs in some commercials or something. Anything is better than this dropping of pebbles into the ocean and hoping someone sees the ripples.

She did more press and appearances talking about her break-up with Jason.

"100 Years" and "They Don't Give" are HOT. Instantly among my favorites by her.

She sounds REALLY good on these new songs and they really fit her voice better than the pop songs she used to sing, even though I enjoyed them.
