This nikka just can't take a win, even when it's handed to him. He has a dope track featuring a nice hook from one of the hottest (in terms of buzz/interest, I'm not commenting on his looks) singers in the game. Yet what does he do. He rushes out the single without adding much of any bass to it, then he waits months to release a video. Then when he does finally release the video it's some low budget morbid shyt. I like the concept of the video but come on. Miguel is barely in the video, the lighting is dark, and you barely see the chick.

Whatever, dude was born to take Ls I guess.

The bolded is my only gripe. Its like why pay all that money for a Miguel feature and show him for all of 5 sec in the video. They should have had someone else played that part.

This song is pretty damn good should be alot higher on the charts

i :salute: cole cause he dont want to shine off other nikkaz, he want to be his own man, he dont even let them write his hooks, he right the hooks and then choose which rnb singer he wants on it

I'm a fan of Cole, but this video completely hinders the amount of success I envisioned the song generating for him.

It's all over the place, and unless you heard Dreams, you won't know what he's talking about with the 1 line he drops mentioning it. I understand him branching off from that track... but really? Not really sure what will come of this shyt.

He def had a smash hit with this cut... I'm thinking he should have used Power Trip as a prelude to what he did in this video here. I mean... I don't even think the lyrics really apply to the video at all which isn't a good look IMO. Now when he gets questioned about the video he's going to have to reference a song that many casual people have never heard which doesn't have a video for.

Dope song, but not feeling the video for it much at all.

Song is dope, but there's nothing wrong with a good visual to go along with it.

I'm not saying it's going to flop, just saying people are going to see it and be like WTF? Should have just kept it in the strip club with him looking like he's just sprung on ole girl with flashbacks of her... I'm guessing there will be another track related to the aftermath, so that's when he could have went for the psycho shyt.

Just my take on it.
