Those diggy tracks. How he fell off so quick is a mystery, his first tape was so solid.

This should have been a smash. Heck this would be a hit if it was released today. Pharrell's solo is so slept on, especially since "Number One" with Ye didn't blow.

:lawd: this was the main song i immediately latched on to when I first bought the album. I was happy when he made it a single but yea it shoulda ran the summer.

They killed the album rollout by prematurely droppin "can I have it like that" and then having to work "number one" with such a big ass gap in between

He shoulda did more features leading up to the rollout, and "You can do it too" shoulda been a damn single


when I saw this in the thread i was like :gladbron:

I think with a lot of the more recent songs being posted.. you have so much music coming out now that we forget about a lot of these songs so we just move on. Hiphop moves way too fast.. Here's my contributions.

This song is a hit to me.. I'm not a big Fab fan but I wonder why he's not a huge star


I bet this single would be huge if it was an outkast song.


If Janelle would've sat on this one for about 2 years and then released it she'd be outta here with this one. Yes she's popular now but people don't fukk with her music like they should. This song had everything! Dope visuals and Janelle finally changed up her look and sas was looking amazing in it... it also had pre A Seat at the table Solange who wasn't as popular then as she is now... Speaking of Janelle Monae..

Thisshould've been a smash hit

Revisonist history is you saying the albun was collecting dust on the shelf for the longest. That album came out at the end of July. She passed like a month later. That album had sold like 500K before she passed.

Alicia Keys did that in like a week in the same year 2 months prior. Couldn't keep that CD in the store.

Alicia Keys had the biggest song out that summer with a song that had reach all across the board. Few were doing Alicia Keys numbers.

Not about to argue about Aaliyah for the millionth time. Already done this. You don't like Aaliyah. Everybody gets it. Move on.
