This was blowing up the airwaves exactly five years ago. I still like this. This was originally intended for Kanye's College Dropout. It ended up becoming Twista's first single for his album Kamikaze. The extended version is on the former album. This samples Luther Vandross' "A House Is Not A Home". Actreess Aisha Tyler has a tiny speaking part in this song.

Great song. For some reason I think of Lovers & Friends when I think of this too. Both great songs.

"She said she want some Marvin Gaye some Luther Vandross a little Anita......." I love this. Its easily one of the best hip-hop songs from late 03/ early 04

"She got a lightskinned friend looks like Michael Jackson, got a darkskinned friend looks like Michael Jackson..." God I love this song. Modern classic in my book.

I thought it was obnoxious as hell, and now it's really a testament to how far Kanye has come.

I love it. This and "So Sexy" are his best singles.

This was released as a single from 2004's Kamikaze. It peaked at #11 at CHR/pop, #1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, #3 in the UK and #1 on the Hot 100. I love it.

I almost forgot this song went number one. I love the soulful tributr in here & I miss these kinds of collabs.
