    The video has that vibe of Lauryn Everything is Everything Missy does her thing on the beat.

  19. Cutie

    I love this girl and I love this song. Even before reading any of the posts, I said this girl sounds like Lauryn Hill. I mean its an excellent compliment…especially how Lauryn was so innovative and breathy, and had such a soothing voice. This girl here can really sing, and has an awesome sense of style. I can’t wait for the album.

  20. love jazmine, love the vid. can’t wait for that album. has anyone heard about any duets she may be doing? i’m interested in hearing what male voice sounds best with hers……

  30. WARNING:OPIONATED

    I SIMPLY loooooooooove this song, and the video is really cute. Ma look funky fresh & pretty and I am really feelin her sound and that shes stickin to her roots in her music…unlike other singers…but anywho ma is bad I hope to hear more music from her real soon…..next song Jaz….us “real” music fans embrace “real” singers along with “real” music….and lyrical content…..THE VIDEO GETS A PHAT AZZ 10 FROM MOI ;)

    PS. Good lookn CL. Yall some impressive motha(oopz)…lol

  31. *CALI BABY*

    I love Jazmine and Missy because anything they do will be greatness.I didn’t watch the video yet but I’m sure it will be just that great!!

  32. Beyonce = George Bush

    this track is ok, I’m waiting for rihanna to release disturbia to radio cause that song is hot.

  33. WARNING:OPIONATED

    At #15 Missy Elliot is doin her…..OBVIOUSLY SHE AINT THINK ABOUT WHAT DA HATAZ F’N WANT….OR EXPECT OF HER TO LOOK LIKE….SO IF U CAN’T DIG HER ORIGINALITY OR MISSY SIMPLY BEIN MISSY…..Then in the words of Jay-z…”Go head…BURY YA SELF..”

  34. Ladycole

    who is this chick? I love this song!!!!! at first listen, i thought it was lauryn for a sec. can’t wait for her debut!

  35. henry

    is she still a single? someone just found she is wondering on the famous online free interracial dating site interracial chatting . c o m , a place for rich men to seek extramarital relationship… you can guess what she is doing there if she really joined the service.

  36. Mrs. S

    Omigod! I love this song! I’ve been hearing it on the radio for a while now, and everytime I kept missing whenever they announced the artists name. Yessss! I just hit up itunes with the quickness. This will be on rotation in my ipod for a whileeee.

  37. Kryzipoo

    Jazmine Sullivan is the truth!!! I swear i heard this on the radio and I immediately found her on Myspace and added it to my page!!! Her voice is exactly what R&B is needing right now… So tired of the sterotypical songs that are out now…
    GO JAZ!!!

  38. Greg_Arious

    I love the song but…
    A. Why did it take so long to put out a video
    B. What record label is she signed to because this cheap video looks like my 10th grade Media Production project.

    I hate it when GREAT artists get the short end of the stick.

  39. TheRealist

    Jaz looks real beautiful but the video is nothing special.

  40. KEEPSITREAL

    Well, she has the voice and the sound, not digging her style though. With soulful music I wish she was more Natural looking. I AM so tired of all these Weeve wearing women who can’t find something to do with their natural hair.

    She will get lost in the Beyonce crowd fast. Missy sure can turn out some hot women though…..

    Nicole Ray, Tweet, Alliyah, Ciara, Lil Mo(nkey) and they all have that cig smoking, lesbo raspy voice. Get it Missy. I am sure she will be collaborating with Amy Winehouse next.

  41. cookie

    i’ve loved this girls music since i first learned of her over a year on right here on CL. Why is this song not on the radio!? I’m gonna call and request it tmrw. This song is HOT and the video is great. Her voice is amazing and she looks really pretty in the video. And of course Missy is repping for the female producers. When does her album drop? I can’t find her on Itunes. I’m defintly going to buy it.

  42. zach

    HER ALBUM DROPS SEPT 16TH IT CALLED “FEARLESS” AND THE SINGLE IS ON ITUNES

  43. hollywood here i come...

    24…we can hear clear as day what she saying..that wuz a bit much

    i looooooooove this song–she reminds me of lauryn hill

    i haaaaaaaaaaaaated the video..and i dont get why missy is even sayin anything to be honest lol.

  44. Monica

    I’m glad she’s finally getting her spotlight!!!! She looks like she lost weight too!!! I’m excited about her c.d.!!! I feel like this year will be a good year for true r &b artist!!

  45. Maje$ty

    I love Jazmine Sullivan voice. The first time I heard her on the radio I was blown away. She has that voice just like Lauren Hill. Just please stay away from the Marley boys….LOL

  46. tia

    her vocals are the dopest thing i have heard in a long while (as far as new artist goes) i mean we got our fantasia and bey,and alicia who have great voices but jazmines is def a breathe of fresh air because she has such a rich soulful tone

    i feel in love with this song the minute i heard it and this is why i love music……i couldnt possibly live without it no matter what anybody says about certain genres being dead so on and so forth…screw all that,i love music and i will def be lookin out for miss jazmines album…she is tha truth!

  47. Aries

    Absolutely Love this song!! Im excited to see what her C.D will bring as well as Solange’s. Their left field right now, and right now thats what I need

  48. CAREN

    i love to love this song!!!! =)

  49. fashionista

    Her voice is sooooo dope!!! I’ve been listening to this song on repeat ALL weekend. She should not be compared to Lauryn Hill as she is her own person….btw I’m so sick of all of the comparisons! Geesh! Why can’t people be indivduals?! As for the video, she didn’t need to have some glossy over produced video. For what?! Her voice is all you need! I could care less if she was sitting on a box the whole time…..baby…you CAN’T FAKE TALENT!!! Do you Jazmine!

  50. i'm just here for the free food

    love her! love this song!

  51. datone

    The album drops Sept 16

  52. SHA BOOGIE

    OMG!!! I HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHO THIS VOICE WAS ON THE RADIO AND NOW I KNOW….I AM SO AMPED. THIS SONG IS SO FRIGGING DOPE. I HOPE THE PRODUCTIONS ON HER ALBUM IS THE SAME. I AM IN LOVE WITH HER VOICE…YAY FOR JAZZY!!!!

  53. fattygirl218

    the first time i heard this song i was driving back to nc from dc and as soon as i heard the hook i was hooked! this song is straight fire, this is one of the few songs i can put on repeat and just feel it…..

  54. kmniles

    #38…your comment was so off base it’s frightening. Having an afro as big as Angela Davis or dreads as nappy as Whoopi Goldberg is not a prerequisite for soul music. Your screen name says “keep it real”, yet you’d rather have an artist appease your version of what a soul artist should look like in a video? What a bunch of nonsense.

    As for the song…it’s very nice. People say she’s channeling Lauryn Hill, but the whole thing screams Tweet to me. Must be the background vocals or something.

  55. Vicky

    Just requested her on myspace. I’d heard this song on the radio but didn’t hear who sung it. Thanks, CL!!

    :)

  56. AM

    Love the song…hate Missy in the video and screaming all over it. This song is grown. Did the label execs think that people were gonna be like, “Well Missy was in the video so she must be hot!” Missy? Come on now.

    And speaking of Missy she really needs to switch her style up, STAT!

  57. Whenandwhere

    This is one of the biggest songs of the summer to me!!! It’s funny how she already had a fan club almost 4 years ago prior to the release of this single, too.

  58. Focused1

    I really like this song amd Jazmine’s voice. I’d like to thank CL for schooling me about Jazmine a couple of months ago, because I had never heard of her songs before then. I’m picking up the album when it drops. I have a feeling it will be a good one.

  59. Have Not Thought of a New User Name

    She does sound like Lauren Hill, I love this song.

  60. Toons

    Love this song and I dig her. Her voice is sickening. She’s also gorgeous, I like her look.
