Funky and Unfortunately Forgotten

"This song is the jam. You can bump it riding down the freeway and groove to it. Plus I love the lyrics. He speaks of upliftment in lyrics such as "She was a dark skin girl with pretty corn rows, she was doing her best to try and hide her scars" and Q-Tip also provided enlightenment with lyrics likes "we may be poor, but we're rich in soul." They get 4 stars for that alone..."

Smooth as Butter

"Raphael Saadiq carries on the Tone Tone Tone vibe with a smooth cut featuring the legendary Q-Tip. The song harks back to the classic melodies of 70's period Marvin or Stevie coupled with a sharp, bouncy rap from the ex-ATCQ frontman and it's quite simply the best new Rn'B tune I've heard since 'Brown Sugar' (D'Angelo) or 'Ascention' (Maxwell). I cannot believe someone gave this one * (below) but then again, never trust anyone who writes reviews in upper case."

THIS IZ HOT.
