This was for the first single from her third album, "A Different Me." It peaked at #63 on the Hot 100 and #9 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles chart. Although I like the song, it was such a bizarre single choice, and ESPECIALLY a lead single. I have no idea what they were thinking. But this was definitely the starting point of when the quality of her music started to decline.

It peaked at #9 R&B/Hip-Hop.
I liked it just fine, but it was so bizarre that they made a collaboration that was already put out on a 2Pac album three years prior the lead single from her album. Then the third single from this album was a duet version of a bonus track from her previous album.

It's ok. Her 3rd album was such a mess.

It was okay. Smart move to use a song w/Tupac to keep her hometowm talking about her music.

For some reason, this is one of my favorites from her.

This was such a random and strange choice, why take a 3 year old song to launch a new album after you've just hit new heights?
I didn't not like it, but I never felt the urge to listen to it.
Also, it never topped the R&B/Hip-Hop chart, it peaked at #9 there, her lowest charting track since she first made the top 10. Both of the followup singles outperformed it there as well.

This was the start of what seemed like complete career sabotage. I don't know if it was her or her label or a combo of both. There were still hits left on JLY that needed to be released. Instead they rush recorded and rush released a weak follow-up that wasn't necessary and then released THIS as the first single? Some mediocre song that had been sitting on the shelf for how long? It was so bizarre and one of several big nails in the coffin of her career. Things just got even sloppier with her next album. Such wasted potential.

I thought this was a very good song. I really like A Different Me.

I liked it, but I thought it was odd that she would kick off the album/era with this.

I played the hell out of this. I preferred the no rap version though.
