    yes, i play it in the club. it's in rotation on hip-hop radio, and maybe the other more poppy stations. i like the couple of songs i've heard from her.

    so, will.i.am produced it I gather. But he had an instrumental on his album? I couldn't tell from that clip you posted Pony. It says it's a song from his album, but it's just an instrumental. I have never heard will.i.am's album.

    cool beat. Sounds better on the american boy one to me.

    I can't say I'm in love with Kanye's verse or accent, but I'm not mad. He certainly doesn't ruin it.

    He's probably the reason this song is getting burn on the radio at all, at least the top 40 rap stations here in Chicago. I like it a lot. It's a refreshing dash of grown and sexy in a sea of tepid jigginess.

    It's the no.1 tune in fact.


    Here's some more from the new lp, to me it sounds very Lauren Hill ish.

    I really liked her first single and it was in heavy rotation for a minute. This one took a while to grow on me but I'm digging it.
