"I Got You," Teena Marie f/ Rick James

[Deleted]

A part of me was hoping this wouldn't be the next single although it almost seemed destined to be either this or "A Rose By Any Other Name" since Urban AC would love anything she would do with Rick or Gerald Levert.  I think her shining tracks here are the solo ones, especially "Honey Call".  "I Got You" is a little too hip-hop which comes off a little strange coming from a 48 year old white woman.  Regardless, it's Teena and she does no wrong in my eyes.  The song is still great.  She could have done better though.  They still have awhile to change the follow-up single.  With "Still In Love" not going to Urban mainstream until next month, she still has a few months.  I have the audio for you to listen to.

Pretty good... not her best, but still miles above most of the other competition. I may just have to pick up her album.

This song is a mess.

JAM!

It's not exactly Fire And Desire but this will do just fine. Another good song for UAC, but will mainstream take it to the next level of "restored soul?". It will take me a while to stomach this all in and I'm quite sure that Cash Money/Universal could've picked a better single.
