This is his new single. I have no idea where it's from, unless it's "Best Of Both Worlds 2". It goes for adds on March 23. It sounds almost identical to "Step In The Name Of Love". easylink.playstream.com/diddy/hp.rm

It's a good song.. to me it sounds like "Step in the name of Love Part II". What I love about this and "Step..." is that they both have a lot of soul. "Step..." was fantastic..

God I hated "Step..." I thought it was his worst single in years so I think I will pass on this one. It's really too bad I enjoy most of his music

Kanye West and Twista are putting up superstar numbers on the Billboard charts, but there's still one man who reigns supreme in their hometown of Chicago, and that's R. Kelly.
The singer has two new records in rotation in his Windy City stomping grounds. One, "My Africa," is being described by DJs as the ultimate black history record, while the other, "Happy People," is an ode to one his favorite pastimes, stepping.
"What do we do when the DJ is playing our favorite groove?" he asks rhetorically before answering himself on the latter cut. "We step/ To when? The whole night through/ What do we do/ When we're all dressed up and in the mood?/ We step to a stepper's groove."
Kelly later goes on to sing about getting dressed up and going to the spot where there's "nothing but happy people" because they keep the world "turnin' " and "dancin'."
Whether these songs will turn up on an R. Kelly album isn't clear. His label had no word yet on his next solo project. Meanwhile, a track titled "Best of Both Worlds Part 2" has turned up on mixtapes. On it, Kelly duets with Baby and asks the Lord to provide him shelter from pain.
A spokesperson for Cash Money said the Birdman wants to have their joint LP, which is now being called Best of Both Worlds: Ghetto Thrillers, in stores by April (see "R. Kelly, Baby Teaming Up For Best Of Both Worlds Sequel").

I think he's hanging out too much with J. Lo.

Why does this freak keep pumping out material like ther is no tomorrow. Shouldn't he be getting ready for his trial.

That's precisely the reason why he keeps churning out the music.
He's trying to make as much money as he can before he potentially has to spend time behind bars.

It's boring and unoriginal. Not that it wasn't expected. Maybe it'll grow on me.

R. KELLY Happy People Producer(s): R. Kelly Writer(s): R. Kelly Publisher(s): Zomba Songs/R. Kelly Publishing adm. by Zomba Songs, BMI Label/Catalog Number: Jive 60140 (CD promo) Source: Billboard Magazine Originally Reviewed: April 03, 2004 R. Kelly seems to be unstoppable. In addition to producing and collaborating with a host of artists (including Cassidy, Tamia and Joe), the singer/songwriter has already completed a new album. The title track of the May 4 release, "Happy People," follows in the footsteps of previous single "Step in the Name of Love." In fact, the song sounds like a more uptempo version of "Step," which reached the summit of the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. Similarities aside, "Happy People"—replete with glorious Larry Gold-arranged strings—is a wonderfully melodic track that exalts the pleasures of stepping. R&B programmers are often quick to program an R. Kelly single. Expect nothing different this time around. It looks as though the self-proclaimed "Pied Piper" may have a few more followers after this one.—RH

It kinda reminds me of the situation with 'Ignition', which did ok on R&B radio but then was remixed and skyrocketed everywhere else.
I doubt that this song will have that same fate, but I can't see this doing anything at all on Pop or mainstream or have nearly the same crossover appeal as 'Ignition' did

Supposedly the whole album is "step" so everything on it is going to sound like "Step In The Name Of Love".

I think this is going to be a smash hit, if you want it, it's now available on Napster for under one dollar! When you listen to the song you will notice that he uses reung verses of the O'Jay's smash hit "I Love Music". You know if it fails on mianstream Urban, it will still most likely be a smash on Urban AC. This is basiclly a "feel good" let's go out to the club record. Now you peeps can not tell me that this will not put you in a "good" club mood just be before you step into the club cruisin' wit yo boyz and yo ole lady. C'mon now! ;)
