I did the visual to "Moment" and the song...

"Ass like that" was dope too. She earned a fan with this new material.

that song and vid are gold.

ass like that is aight.
13369164, I love the “nut on my back” sentiment of “Moment”.

I’ve loved her work on hooks but wasn’t aware she was doing full solo songs.
13369179, Her voice makes it sound subtle but it's very direct
Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Feb-27-20 09:14 AM
That's the dope part about it. If you ain't really listening you could miss that.

She's done a few collabs that I noticed her voice but I didn't really like much of her solo efforts until now.
13369189, yeah, I actually didn't catch it until someone told me.

I heard her say land it like a plane on my back, but it didn't click. lol
13369166, Ass Like That is my shit.

I mean, even though the topic is sort of funny and light hearted, her vocal on that shit is FIRE.
13369182, I like that it's about going to the gym but the hook/title draws you in
Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Feb-27-20 09:16 AM
It was a creative angle to take for an R&B song.
13369183, Realized I put "did" instead of "dig" in my OP lol
Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Feb-27-20 09:17 AM
I did not "do" this video but I do indeed dig it.

America has imported more warlord theocracy from Afghanistan than it has exported democracy.
13369327, Ain't it?
Posted by auragin_boi, Thu Feb-27-20 05:37 PM
Sent it to my wife to check out...

She accused me of ass scouting...

I was like...nah, actually I dig the creativity of it all...

Plus it has a little something for everyone...


...BUT


Yeah...that ass though.

"Get ready....for your blessing....."
"Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"
13369366, I'm so sick of these R&B songs with cussing

I'm officially older than I was when I turned officially old

13369382, yeah...this. I came up on R&B radio...unfortunately my kids won't have that

opportunity....



"Get ready....for your blessing....."
"Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"
13369393, I agree...if it's one thing about the song that might be off-putting
Posted by auragin_boi, Fri Feb-28-20 09:23 AM
it's that. Most times I think it's egregious in R&B.

For this song, IMO, it works though given the story.

And yeah, you are old because they been cussing in R&B for ever (like even back in the 70's)...your 'old ears' just cringe at it more now. lol
13369516, I forgot all those classic songs with the cussing on them

R&B songs with cussing in them where rare. I'm a big Manhattans fan and I just found out 6 years ago they released R rated versions of all their albums

13369536, She doesn't look old at all but...
Posted by BlakStaar, Sat Feb-29-20 04:51 PM
I definitely thought she was in her 30s, not 26.
*shrugs*
I'm probably just projecting.

She's nice to look at.
