Somebody get out the febreeze ...

So when I first played this track I thought the first 30 seconds were from some sort of video game or something. I really didn't know what to think. Memories of playing Duck Hunt on the OG Nintendo started running through my head.

It actually took me like 15 tries to listen to it the whole way through. I thought, how could these two cats do something like this? Could they really make a track that I'm not feeling at all? They're one of the hottest collabos in R&B & hip-hop both reppin' the HOTlanta!

Oddly though, the more I listened to it the more I liked it ... it started to grow on me, but the moment I realized I really liked it was when I was strolling through the Santee Alleys in downtown LA. I heard the intro bumping out of some cat's boombox trying to sell bootleg CD's and seeing people's reaction to it made me realize that, regardless if they liked it or not, they'd remember where they were when they heard it.

Usher feat Ludacris - That Girl Right There

It's funky ... so funky that you need to spray some febreeze if you play it loud enough!! The beat is tight and those video game sounds ... they work for me. Ludacris puts it down as usual and the harmony Usher hits during the bridge is SICK!!

Hopefully when you hear it in the club and realize that you like it too, you'll think back to when you hit up my blog. ;-)

Let it bump ... RR22
