Produced by Illangelo (The Weeknd, Drake, Majid Jordan, etc.) so that's where the vibe kicks in. I just wish the bridge had more umph to it but I'm really enjoying this and I'm so glad it's not another self help track.

So fresh for her! Very Drake Take Care/One Dance/Controlla. It fits with the island dance that seems to be "in," right now, yet still very authentically A. Keys. Hopefully this does well, and if so, a lot of these other R&B songstresses should take note on how to be current, yet remain R&B.

It's actually almost cute for her. But too Drake.

This is great. Her most radio friendly single since "Unthinkable" for sure.

Really, really good! Alicia got it right. Finally.
The song is very Drake-ish, the chorus especially sounds like "Take Care". Kudos to her for giving her sound a fresh twist and for not serving strained vocals.
Her most radio friendly single since "Un-thinkable (I'm Ready)" alright. Oh I just realized it's no inspirational BS either! Yay for THAT too!

I just wish the bridge had more umph to it but I'm really enjoying this and I'm so glad it's not another self help track. Illangelo is toooooo good. So wait, what's the previously reported Clean Bandit (so random) connection then?

She's getting praise in spades for this; I just pray it's not an outlier and there's more material on the album in this vein.

Lord I am so happy that I love this song. It was touch and go there for me and her for a minute. I feel like this picks up where the better half of TEOF left off.
In a perfect world this would smash all formats right along with One Dance, but I don't know if Alicia has the cache to make that happen now.

Its initial performance on iTunes is very weak.
