The Lil Baby feature gives me hope that this could really be a big urban hit for her. The Neptune’s however have been really hit and miss lately. I’m excited either way. This better hit this Friday fresh off the Versuz battle hype.

Looking forward to this. I was underwhelmed by “Commitment” and forgot what the follow-up even was, but the relaunch and high profile collaborators are giving me hope.

This is very much a Goonica ballad. lol nothing like Commitment/Me + You. I love it though. The Lil Baby feature gives me hope that this could really be a big urban hit for her. The Neptune’s however have been really hit and miss lately. I’m excited either way. This better hit this Friday fresh off the Versuz battle hype. If not sooner. :kii:

This is okay. It sounds just as I expected it to. Very dated.

I never envisioned hearing an R&B song this year worse than "Baby Mama". But here we are.

This sounds like a song, from an anonymous R&B singer, that someone would have on their MySpace in 2005.

I feel like there's promising moments here and there. But the production is blah, Lil Baby sucks and something about her tone/vocal is OFF. She doesn't even sound good on this.

Not that impressed at first listen, but this might be a grower. Lil Baby sounds really out of place on this.

This flows, I like it. Doesn't sound like Neptunes work, but it goes.
Lil Baby is a no on this one, but I see what they were trying to do.

I wasn't sure about this at first, but... when they played this on the Verzuz it sounded goooooood! Whoever up here ^^^ said this sounds like something from 2005... were you around in 2005? I see that you clearly were you should know better. Lol, it does not--especially not Monica circa 2005. I do agree something about the vocal production is different, but I think it's done intentionally.
Anyway--I don't believe Monica's been anywhere near this high on the main iTunes chart (now #12), so that's awesome.

Okay, this is all coming a little bit better now. Still doesn't sound like Pharrell and Chad did this. More like Bryan Michael Cox. He snuck that 4 count in again Linnethia Monique sksksks

Something is off with this. It's sounds like a radio rip or something. It doesn't sound clean

I like this! I think she should really consider taking Brandy up on her offer to do some background harmonies.
