May 11th, 2010 at 7:24 pm
As expected this song is soooo much in the groove of what needs to be coming out in smooth and sexy R&B music. This album will be a great addition to my import of Johnta’s last work. JD, you and Brian Michael Cox are holding it down for the grown and sexy!!!!!!!!!!!
May 11th, 2010 at 7:47 pm
I’m in love with this record. Johnta this ish is hott. I can’t wait for the album. Finally, an artist that knows the meaning of true R&B. Not only is Johnta sexy, but he may be the only artist to bring R&B back to where it once was.
May 11th, 2010 at 7:56 pm
I loved it Johnta and can’t wait for the album to drop…. oh yeah please make a video

This exactly what we need when I say Real R&B I just hope all the people who has been asking for This type of music support cause we need to bring this trend back. You guys I mean real support like paying for it not just downloading for free.

May 12th, 2010 at 1:45 am
It’s much better then the stuff I hear them working on in the studio on LTL. I’m trying to think of some constructive criticism but I can’t think of anything, which coming from me is a good sign. I really wouldn’t change anything. All the vocals are smooth, the harmonies are their, JD kept his signature sound. I think it will work…..
SPOCK
May 12th, 2010 at 3:33 am

May 12th, 2010 at 8:47 pm
LMAO @ THE LIFERS/OCEAN’S CHICK THAT GOING GUGU GAGA OVER HIS SONG. THE COMMENTS ARE CRAZY UP IN HERE!
I HAD TO LOOK UP THE SONG ON YOUTUBE.
THE SONG IS HOT THOUGH, THE QUALITY NEEDS WORK, JUST A FEW TWEAKS ON THE BEAT AND IT WILL BE ALL READY FOR RADIO PLAY.
THE PROBLEM THAT I HAVE WITH THE SONG IS THAT THE BEAT IS SOUNDING A LITTLE SHARP AND LITTLE DISTORTED, SO PLEASE GET THAT IN CHECK IIGHT.
I WOULDN’T NECESSARILY CALL IT A BABY MAKING TRACK, IT’S SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN GROOVE TO IN THE CLUB, BUT NOT TO MAKE LOVE IN THE BED ROOM TO. I LIKE MY BABY MAKING MUSIC TO BE SLOW, SMOOTH, AND ROMANTIC.
