First Spin
N'dambi's 'Can't Hardly Wait' Is A Step Above
Even at the risk of having this song directed my way at some point, the new single from N'dambi, the anthemic "Can't Hardly Wait," may just become my favorite song. Ever. Yes, I know I'm a guy, but for real, this track is like "Tyrone" on steroids (and yes, she used to sing back-up for Erykah Badu, so there ya go. Boom. Connection). Sure, it's in your face, with the Texas native whose name means "Most Beautiful" pulling no punches with the refrain "f*ckinwitchu" (which should be a trending topic on Twitter in 5, 4, 3, 2...), but still, at the same time, the mid tempo, laid back beat belies the urgency to leave of which she speaks, lulling whoever may be listening into a head nod or a two-step. It could've easily been called "Step In The Name of Love/Hate." "Can't Hardly Wait" is from the forthcoming release Pink Elephant, and should will definitely set the stage for N'dambi to soar to even greater heights. And hopefully find a man that acts right. Now, go on and blast this song while I head on over to Twitter with some hash tags in my back pocket. Happy Friday!
