"All I have to say is that Olivia is a trend setter and now peeps all over are gonna be saying "I'm About To BIZOUNCE". Another comment on her, she is always making a mean face on all of her pictures, I mean she could sing songs that are sad and about unhappiness as smile, look at Destiny's Child. Regardless of all the not so neccessary swear words this track is pretty good. This Single even has a (Pg-13) version and a few snippets from her upcoming album. I'm sure Olivia is gonna be remembered for this song, I hear it more and more everyday. You better go buy this single before I be about to "Bizounce"!!!"

"Being the first new artist to be signed to Clive Davis's newly-hatched J Records Olivia became one of J Records most talented singers and was hailed as the new Aaliyah. Like the late Aaliyah Olivia has a unique sassy style and cowrites her own songs all with a unique rap tinged sound that will sure win the ears of many stations. Now for the long awaited track by track of Bizounce,

1. Bizounce {G Rated Version}

Sassy rap styled funk jam with tough and sassyness. As mentioned earlier this is the G rated version which contains no intro rap. Good choice for the first single,

2. Are You Capable {Snippet}

This song was originally planned for the second single but You Got the Dang Thing was chosen instead. This is a mostly rap filled song with awesome beats as shown in the snippet. The album version can be found on Olivia's debut album,

3. It's On Again {Snippet}

Like Are You Capable this song is also featured as a snippet on the single and is a beautiful Aaliyah like ballad. The full version of It's On Again can also be found on the debut album also,

4. When 2 Souls Touch,

This is a beautiful romantic ballad that was released as the b-side of Bizounce and sounds similar to Christina Aguilera's Loving Me 4 me. Romantic slow jam with cool vocals,

It is really a shame that Olivia did not get the promotion she deserved and with J Records paying attention to other new artists such as Alicia Keys and Luther Vandross she should've been promoted more and could've had more success and could've made it to the R&B hotseat. But until then both this single and the debut album will be rewarding to the listener's ear"
