According to Jamie in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, this is his first single from his second album, "Southern Gentleman," due out in November.
I can't say I'm looking forward to this--especially with their current single. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it. I don't think people will take him seriously as a singer. But he maybe he'll shock us all with something hot.

this has a cool dark vibe to it, kinda like diamonds. it's not very radio friendly though, imo.

If he's doing the fake Ray Charles singing, I'm not going to like it. It sounds ridiculous.

I can't stand either of them. The new single doesn't impress me at all. I'm sure Jamie will come out saying "This is better than everything blah blah" like Knaye does with his new album. It's funny how they talk about how great they are but won't acknowledge their flops.  |

This is good. He sounds like John Legend on this song.

This is good. He sounds like John Legend on this song. He DOES! He sounds young. I thought i've downloaded the wrong song. Quite a unique song. |

I just heard it. I don't like it right now. It's really bland and I think it's kind of annoying actually.

Where are y'all hearing this?
EDIT: Never mind, I just found this song on Limewire and it's actually called "One Night Extravaganza."

It sounds like John Legend because it is. That cant be Jamie Foxx .. it doesnt sound like him at all.

I don't think this was said to be the first single. I just read the same part in EW and it says "It'll be the first track, then we slowly get into the real album." So maybe this should be moved for now.

I'm moving this back. It pulled in several adds this week and that's probably because of a release.

Has anyone actually heard the track? I know I heard "One Night Extravaganza" but I'm pretty sure that is John Legend.

This is definitely Jamie. He's good at copying other people's voices. John probably sung the demo of this and Jamie just copied it as closely as he could. When he breaks off into the adlibs you can tell it's him.
I just bothered listening to this. This is really bad and boring. I'm all for songs having a light funny tone to them, but this comes off as cheap and annoying. Sounds like a hot flop to me!

This is horrible. Why is Jamie trying to soundlike evryone else? Who is going to take him seriously when he isnt using his own voice.

I really like it. Jamie Foxx is actually telling a story instead of just talking about getting tore up at a club and sleeping with a woman. It actually builds up to a climax.
I think he'll be taken more seriously than before. Jamie Foxx has actually played some serious roles since his last recording effort.

Heard the song. Why is it that he can just be his damn self for once? I say this is not his best song out there now. I thought that his first album was impressive. Jamie...what happened there, dog? You used to be hot. Now you're letting that damn Oscar go to you great big head!

I like this song. It sounds hot to me although I thought John Legend was a guest on the cut. But ya'll have to admit that it is different than anything on radio in some time. I like the energy of the song, the creativity of the lyrics which I have not paid attention to so i might change my comment..i think im trying to say its concept instead of lyrics and I like the production. This has Kanye all over it though. Let's welcome Jamie Foxx to the Common, John Legend, Kanye West Club. He almost fits in , doesn't he? Almost
