This was the fourth single from her album, "No Boys Allowed." It was produced by Stargate and written by Ester Dean. As the composers suggest, it definitely sounded like a Rihanna left over. It failed to make the Hot 100 and only peaked at #77 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.

Like you said, it was very Stargate/Rihanna, but I liked it anyway. I hate Nelly's rap though, him rhyming "famous" and "anus" should have NEVER happened. In what world should the word "anus" be in a song?

This was all about the instrumental, one of stargate's best. I loved this sound from them.

I love this song and video, why didn't it smash?
Ester Dean's demo is pretty awesome, I've been playing it a lot lately.

I feel like this has all the right elements to be a good song but it doesn't come together. Her vocals sound so thin on the chorus too.

I loved this but I can see now why it wasn't a hit. It was a tired Stargate retread with a failing Nelly at the time as well. Also I hate how they relegated "Let Me Down" to an interlude considering it was an epic Timbaland production in the vein of "What Goes Around/Comes Around" previously.
