This was released as a single from 2006's The Breakthrough. It was produced by Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins. It peaked at #2 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and #32 on the Hot 100. The song is fine, but I didn't like it as a single.

I liked it a good amount at the time, but I'm mostly indifferent now. It hasn't held up that well, as well as her Rapper persona.

I liked this at the time, rarely go back to it, and don't mind if I do now... But coming off what as arguably the biggest hit of her career, there were WAY better follow-up options.

I love the instrumental and vocal arrangement. One of my most played Mary J Blige songs over the years.

It's cute and the chorus is so catchy. And I still to this day crack up at her rap persona Brook Lynn.

This song absolutely bumps. Stellar instrumental and a great song overall.

This was cute. Wasn't worthy to follow up the biggest song of her career though.

This song still slaps. It wasn't as big as her lead mostly due to it being a pure hip-hop soul record, unlike "Be Without You" and "One" that had more appeal to the white audience in the 00's.

I didn't want this song to be the second single but retrospectively I'm glad they released it. It was such a cool song. The beat still goes hard.

This song is a bop! I’m a sucker for a Darkchild production anyways. After “Be Without You” did so well I thought this was going to get more love at pop. I forget how it did on Rhythmic radio?? However I used to get a giggle at the rap persona. Especially when she would perform live and introduce “her” before busting into the rap section.
