Lovley SlowJam, the whole CD isn't bad.... but i think this one will be bigger than "Shawty Is A ..."

Great song. Looks like he is going to make another top 10 or even a top 5. I can see it now.

One of the rare instances, at least for me, where an R&B male getting in touch with his vulnerable side doesn't ruin the song.

I guess I'm going against the norm here, but this is awful! It's a bad mix of Umbrella and Bed. The repetition in the chorus of each of those songs made them hits because it was done correctly. As soon as he uses the technique on his own track, he ruins it. And God, his voice is horrible. Sean Kingston would sound better on this.

What voice? He can't sing worth a damn anyway.

Ok, ok, I have to say that this has grown on me a bit since I said this. But still... I think he overdid the chorus just a touch, and, while it makes the song that much more memorable, I think some stations won't touch this as a reason. Aka it's not possible for this to crossover to pop.

Nice song , a great follow up to Shawty which in my opinion doesn't even come close to this one. Deserves to be a top10 Urban smash, at least!

I really hope you're wrong, I will cry if this doesn't become a hit, it's too good to flop... >:( Urban and Rhythmic spins are increasing slowly but surely, and Pop seems to have started spinning this a bit more. Well, only 10 spins instead of no spins, but still... 1/29/2008, 29.753 AI/3859 spins Pop: 10 Alternative: 3 Urban: 2180 Urban AC: 56 Rhythmic: 1591

Ooooh ooooh ooooh! LOVES IT! I got the album a while back and never played it and I heard this song on the Jamn 94.5 today and now I love it. But, why the ella ella at the end? He is just a weirdo, always saying eh and ella like his song is Umbrella, just because he wrote it. I don't get it...is he trying to be a novelty act? This song is still hot tho!

#1 Urban! Also, #4 on R&B. I so hope he can sneak in a week at the top there as well, but Chris Brown's in the way, and the Usher/Mariah combo might also grow fast enough to block him.
