First single off Nelly's upcoming studio album The Spirit Indestructible, out June 19 (same day as Justin Bieber's Believe).
I'm not sure what to think of this song to be honest. It took a few listens for me to get into it and I think this will do well in Canada, but might miss the mark stateside. I don't see this as an instant hit in the same way that Promiscuous was from her last album. She's been receiving a little more exposure with Is Anybody Out There? alongside K'Naan, so maybe once that song phases out, perhaps this will pick up.
Considering it's been six years since her last English-language studio album, it will be interesting to see whether she can replicate the success that she had with Loose, which featured a number of singles that did well not only in Canada, but also internationally.
Debuting this week at #60 on the Canadian Hot 100.

During a time when Canadian radio is lacking any HUGE artists, they'd be right to jump on this one. Not only is it funky (just in time for summer), but it's CanCon, something that the first few releases from "Loose" weren't.

I really like it. Something different from all the turbo pop or everything else on the radio. It is indeed funky.

The video's pretty cool as well.
