Oh my beloved Auto-Tune, how long has it been since our last rendezvous? The past few minutes of not hearing a popular artist employ your delightfully robotic finish have felt like an eternity! Don't ever abandon me again! And look! You have a song with Mary J. Blige, who regretfully sought not to exploit you during the course of Growing Pains, and has decided that regardless of her good friend Jay-Z's recent efforts to exterminate you, you aren't so tiresome! Even better, you're being featured on a track that sounds so much like "Enough Crying" from two whole albums ago! Props to Rodney Jerkins for keeping the fans familiar.
(There's also a version with Drake floating around the internets somewhere. Google it.)

This sounds like something Beyoncé-excuse me,Sasha Fierce- should/would sing..a bit diva-ish..
I wouldn't leave the dancefloor if this would come up,but nonetheless I vote no.
*sigh* Me no likey.
Unsurprisingly, the autotune adds nothing positive to the song. It sounds like some Beyonce-Keri Hilson-Cassie mess; waaaay below Mary's skills.
Me no likey either. Too repetitive and MJB and auto-tune don't mix. Sounds like something suited for a lesser vocal talent.
Why Mary, why? I'm so sick of hearing the robotic vocals and I don't get why a woman who actually CAN sing is using this shitty effect. Leave this to idiots like Lil Wayne, T-Pain etc, you can do much better Mary.
I'm a huge Mary fan. I'm not feeling this. Mary re do this one honey.
Its a dance club track, for sure....have to grow on me to actually like it more, but its HOT, anything by Mary J. Blige is a winner, so don't stunt.
New is good at times, this may be her time for just a little new/different of Mary J. Blige.
I would bounce to this joint all night!!!
Sounds good to me. The Drake version is better though.
Hot beat, but have to agree with everyone else drop the auto-tune MJB let the lesser known singers use it. Next Whitney, will be rocking auto-tune on her up-coming release............ Oh No!
When the queen of Hip-Hop/R&B sinks down to this level...you know something is wrong.
Eh...club ready song for sure, but this sounds like plastic R&B, something that Keri Hilson could use for a hit, not MJB. Auto-tune seems to be the last, lazy resort for some so MJB, err wrong answer, try again.
Look, forget the damn song, I cant get over how sexy Mary is looking in this photo!!!!! she has gotten me all discombobulated and what not, give me a minute SB to get myself together:)
I'm with stoneyisland... That photo is classic! MJB lookin' hella nice!!
Oh... the song? Eh.
She only uses the auto tune on a few words.I like it! Doubt it will make the album.Probally Just a Teaser track for the summer.Mary always does this before the album drops.Remember Last Summer Turn off the lights with Jay-z..right before the breakthrough she did MJB DA MVP and before Love & Life she remade In the Club by 50 cent.I think it was called Hooked with Diddy.Mary Started this HIP HOP/R&B THING. And I guarantee she will finish it!! Get it Mary!!
this song is horrible!!! the real mary j first single is “Good Love” feat. TI …no one wants to hear the Queen of R&B singing thru autotune and over an outdated track at that…Rodney used the same drums for Megan Rochell and Keyshia..and that was already over 2 years ago…check out “Good Love” and see what mary should sound like ..
