Yeah, I have to admit. This isn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Agreeing with Soul Culture, Amber is in the same lane as Cassie, Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna when it comes to the vocals. And if I heard correctly, there wasn’t really any use of auto-tune either. Seems like it was some good ol’ fun though, as boyfriend Wiz plays around on the intro. Too cute. Welp, don’t be surprised if you see this dancing down you’re local radio’s Top 40 chart. It’s most definitely one for the pop airwaves.

If this isn’t sweet! And I’m not coming from a Common diss angle. The fact baby Carter gets feature credits as we hear her first cries at the end is so lovely. *wipes tear* So beautiful. Poppa Hov took to his lifestyle blog Life + Times to drop off a dedication record to his new born seed. Simply lovely.
Also, check a word from hip-hop’s current favorite parents:
Hello Hello Baby Blue.
We are happy to announce the arrival of our beautiful daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, born on Saturday, January 7, 2012.
Her birth was emotional and extremely peaceful, we are in heaven. She was delivered naturally at a healthy 7 lbs and it was the best experience of both of our lives.
We are thankful to everyone for all your prayers, well wishes, love and support.

Here’s a new money motivator… if you’re into working the pole that is. Slated to appear on Breezy’s upcoming effort, here’s a new stripper anthem. Kevin’s flow on this remembers me a lot like Schooboy Q on ASAP Rocky’s “Brand New Guy” by the way.
