I fn hate that cheap tinny sounding sample and the song has the bossy joylessness of enforced fun. The other terrible song of this era I hate is that one with Kelly Rowland and Nellie.

I’m pretty ILX hivemind-ey but ngl I struggle to get into this one? The beat’s amazing but the chorus is a little too annoying.. “shrill” is the word that comes to mind
I will hear no bad words about nelly and kelly rowland’s dilemma though

“Dilemma” is cool because they tried to send a text using Microsoft Excel in the video. People were really really stupid with technology back in the day.

I figured that's just how things were done in Nellyville.
But I just Googled this and found that it almost started a class war. https://www.buzzfeed.com/ikrd/nelly-kelly-rowland-excel

I find it shrill and clattery and ugly in a bad way. maybe it'll grow on me

This song is good & iconic but not my favorite of the rich Harrison x Amelie songs or rich Harrison songs proper .... as a song “get right” by jlo is better to me even if Amerie is obv >>>>
“Rollin down my face” by amerie is 🔥
