• We got Behind the Groove with Lalah Hathaway.
• Jon B. hopped on the digital train.
• Little Dragon slayed the masses.
• Bobby Brown revealed the intimate details of his problems with Usher.
• Dru Hill's new single was all over the place.
• We asked you to tell us who's the dopest MC out right now.

The video is different and creative. The singing is fair to midland. I hope "they" don't over expose her as if she is the most talented thing on earth though. There are sooo many people who can out sing the Knowles' sisters...especially the young lady at my church named Shatavia. That gurl can sang.

@ stoney, I can't listen to the song now, but are you saying this record is sounding like St. Elsewhere/The Odd Couple??? I wouldn't really put Gnarls and N.E.R.D. in the same category... I mean, to me (given comparison of their first two LPs), they are both on different levels of spaced-out-ism. LOL. Gnarls is more operatic and soulful thanks to Ceelo's voice while N.E.R.D. is more rock, rap, electronic, machine, factory, Nintendo-influenced, Sega-jacking, ecstasy and LSD induced, mission-to-Mars completed, robotic, etc. etc. LOL. I haven't been keep up with my N.E.R.D. like I should. I have the first album and I still wear it out years later, but I need to buy the sophomore release and now this one.

Hate to sound crass but, this song is nothing but a penis softener.

I smell some hateration up in this - this song is pretty tight and ya'll need to get off this bandwagon of Sisqo-hating just because he sang a dumb ass song called Thong Song (which still got white girls goin, so whatever). Thong Song or not, they are talented, and this new guy can sing his ass off and kills it with his piece in the end of the song. I'm actually excited for their album - we need more SANGers in the music industry these days.
