It sounds bare without fabolous. This song needs fabolous and fabolous delivers the goods.

I think someone should mix this song with Mariah's. The content is similar and it's mixed in my mind. It sound pretty good too.
Can someone re-up the song with Fabulous, I haven't heard that one yet.
I also love the video for the song. The little girl singing at the end is so cute.

Got word that there will be more ballads on this album. Ballads for Jennifer are not good.  |

I can't stand that horn... and neither do they..
Roger Friedman at Fox News:
Jennifer Lopez's new single should really be called "It's the Same Old Song" — or rather, "Songs."
"Get Right" is not exactly new stuff. Like most everything else in hip-hop, it's cobbled together from bits and pieces of existing music, rap lyrics and a shrill horn section that sounds amazing, just like an Usher record from last year.
Frankly, I don't want to be around 20 years from now when all the so-called songwriters listed on hip-hop records come looking for their royalties. But that's another story. Lopez's "Get Right" is actually borrowed from a rap record by Fabulous, aka John David Jackson.
I can't quote any part of the original "Get Right," because it's one of the most offensive rap lyrics I've ever seen on a piece of paper. Lennon and McCartney, Ashford and Simpson, Cole Porter, it ain't.
Lopez's recording, which debuted on MTV a couple of days ago, has an alternate version with a rap by Fabulous, so you know Jackson got his money. But also credited in writing this song is a disparate group of people, including famous (and very much alive) Motown/Moonglows singer Harvey Fuqua and the very deceased rap legend Christopher "Biggie Smalls" Wallace .
The latter's publishing rights, by the way, go to Justin Combs Publishing, which is owned by Sean "P. Diddy" Combs — Justin is his son.
The rest of "Get Right" is an enigma wrapped in a riddle. Trying to figure this part out is harder than following a plot on "Alias."
It would seem that the melody line in Lopez's "Get Right" comes from an old R&B song written by Fuqua and his partner Lottie Woods from the early '70s, when they were working with a group called New Birth .
And where does that Biggie Smalls part come in? It's possible that the Fuqua-Woods song was already used as a sample for another hip-hop record, called "Players Anthem," by the Junior M.A.F.I.A., and that the whole thing got grandfathered into Lopez's new pastiche.
The horn part is the real mystery here. It sounds like it's taken directly from an Usher record, featuring Bad Seed, called "Ride." Whoever played the horn on that track should be calling his entertainment lawyer right about now.
The only name not listed on the "Get Right" credits (yet) so far is Lopez, which is something of a surprise. Her credit is usually attached to her hit records so that she gets a cut of the royalties.
On the 31 songs credited to Lopez on the BMI Broadcast Music database, not one has fewer than three co-authors. Her hit "Jenny From the Block" has an astounding eleven co-writers listed.
Fuqua, who taught the whole gang at Motown how to act and dress, who sang with the Moonglows and wrote hits with Marvin Gaye, should get a boatload of money for this, and he didn't have to do a thing. God bless.
Luckily, the new "Get Right" will not be getting any Best Song nominations at the 2006 Grammy Awards. If so, there would be a collision on stage. I wonder if Lopez has any idea where this "song" came from, or if she even knows who wrote it.
The same might have been asked last year of Beyoncé Knowles, whose "Crazy in Love" was actually a Chi-Lites record from 1969 written by the legendary Eugene Record.
The new "Get Right" might set a record for the longest intro ever. In fact, the whole "song" is an intro. Lopez repeats the chorus (with that shrill Usher horn riff playing behind her) for a full two minutes before she hits the "song" part. And that's where the problem lies.
Unadorned by her usual phalanx of backup singers, Lopez then starts shrieking, or talk-singing, for the remaining one-minute, 45-second melody. It's a frightening moment in pop-music history, but a delicious one to imagine being recreated on TV shows when the inevitable publicity deluge begins for Lopez's new album, due in March.

This song is decent but it's a shame an Usher reject had to be the first single.

Man, is that guy from Fox News a Hater or what? This song is hot! She needed to bounce back on the scene with a tight club track and she did it. No more ballads for a while, J.LO...  |

I just heard this on Flow...it was actually my first time hearing the song in its entirety.
Fabolous' verses are HOT! Hearing the version without him now, will always feel like something's missing.
Interesting how they played the original song they sampled at the end.
Her verses are kind of annoying, nothing to write home about, but the beat/horns and the chorus really make this song. Add Fabolous' parts and it's a hot song.
I can see how the horns might get annoying after a while though. They just DONT stop! LOL it's like loop and loop and loop all throughout. At least in "Crazy In Love" the horns changed throughout the song.

i just heard the fabo-less version on launch and my god this song could stand on its own. the horns are really good in this song, the thing that i found disturbing is that a 34(?) yr old lady has a sister thats aged (10?). anyway, really looking forward to hearing the fab version. this song will be #1 in no time.

The Fabo-less version is such a mess. I haven't heard the version with him so no comment yet - can someone please post it!
So far I am not really liking this song... it's just a mess. It sounds cool at first but those horns get so bloody annoying. Plus it's her worst vocals ever.
