Okay so we can show murder and gang violence and disrespecting woman but we can’t show a person busting some simple car windows for catching there lover for cheating = wack!!!!

I like the song but the video gets a D- for not following the theme of the song

I love it, I love it, I love it. Go on girl make your music.

The video sucked, but this is currently one of my favorite songs. I need to get this CD!!

To #1, if you hate her that much… WTF did you bother posting a comment let alone watching the vid??? U haters really need to get a life because that’s just pathetic to waste energy like that lol. I thought the video had bad acting but the concept was readable and on point. The song sounds good but it isn’t my cup of tea.

jazmine is lovely i love this song..and she has a powerful voice……But the video doesn’t agree with the song……Why didn’t bust the windows……Oh maybe because they was on a tight budget..but still buss something shooot.

I like this song..she sounds a bit like Monica….at least there is another singer getting air time besides Beyonce.

The kids on this site don’t realize that Jazmine is keeping R&B alive with this album. Who’s REALLY an rnb artist right now? They’ve all gone pop. Jazmine is a breath of fresh air vocally and her artistry is so vintage. Great.

But the video IS boring. Videos in general are whack these days. Kanye West thinks throwing africans in a video makes it unique…. SMH…

Yall black folk know how to hate! This song is HOT and her voice is incredible. There seems to be no problem when brothers are rappin and singing about smacking down ho’s and just blatantly disrespecting black women. But let a black woman sing about some real shit and yall can’t wait to start ya HATIN!! Yeah the video is lame but ya gotta give it up that she has a nice sound.

If u watch the video all the things she did to his apt. never really happened, she just busted the windows in his(not shown) cause when he enters the apt. the glass leading to his bed were from his car

Brian, you always disappointed with someone….

Vocally Jazmine Sullivan is the truth….The video doesnt match the theme of the song but all in all…cut go hard

Ok, I was REALLY feelin this song, I was playing it like all day everyday since I first heard it. I couldn’t wait to see her bust this dude’s windows. WOOOOOOOOW!!! What a MAJOR let down. I never wanna hear this ish again.

p.s.I REALLY REALLY hate it when the vids have nothing to do with the song…don’t you?

I wasnt really feeling this song when I first heard it on the radio, but after I took a time listening to the lyric, I fell in love with this song. But indeed, it really makes you feel like its ok to go bust your ex’s window of his car..Lol Hey, it only gives me an idea of it, no wonder why they didnt want to put the scene on the video. This song is like one of top request on the radio here now.

@#1 Alena, You don’t like Jazmine, but Beyonce is the shit right? Your wack!

I love this song and her music. The video sucked however. Clearly she doesn’t have the budget everyone else at J. Records is getting–hope that improves! Her album is great. It’ll be a shame if she doesn’t blow up, she’s defiantly a unique talent and compared to all the other “singers” out here today, she puts them all to shame.

it’s clear that she is not being herself and is a corporate dummy like all other major entertainers. Black people stop allowing “them” to do this to us. Stop being a slave to this BS.

WHY IS IT OK FOR CARRIE UNDERWOOD TO VUST UP A CAR IN HER VIDEO BUT THE BLACK CHICK CAN’T …YALL WATCH “BEFORE HE CHEATS” AND TELL ME CARRIE AINT ACTIN LIKE SO PSYCHO TRAILER TRASH HOE…LOL

Nice song…. I love this cut….. Very different

You can kill, rape, take drugs in videos….but u cant bust windows??…hmmm?

great choice for the second single, but the video left much to be desired. they need to put out lions & tigers & bears right after this runs its course

I like the song and all but the video has nothing to do with busting windows….I would of been busting windows just for the hell of it

24.

Ronnie B. and others,

I completely agree with you on the fact that they don’t know how to accomodate JAzmin Sullivan which dissappoints me. They are treating her like a low end artist when this woman has an amazing voice that switches up on every song on her album. They definitely could’ve market this woman better like how they marketed Alicia Keys very first album that sold millions. Bust your windows gets so much airtime all over the R&B and pop charts which shows she has crossover appeal. This video should’ve have not been a regular video. It should’ve have had an oldertheme that was reminiscent to Billie Holiday and Dorothy Dandridge. Put this songstress in a blk and white video in front of a mic and have extra pieces of the video take in and out. Maybe I need to get in the video set industries. I’m tired of great artists getting overshined and thrown behind the scenes for the everyday popularities.

She has a nice tone to her voice, but she does wayy too many vocal runs! She’s like a contralto version of beyonce. These girls need to learn to sing a song well without all the vocal melisma.

I couldn’t even get through one minute of lions, tigers bears, the vocals were dreadful!

Bust yo windows could have been better, the chorus could have been stronger. Its not really a stand out track

Album and song, EXCELLENT!
Video - RIDICULOUSLY HORRIBLE. Who is choosing the direction of her videos….they are boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring and don’t help the image of the song.

I saw her in concert last night with MAXWELL. She was pretty good but she was getting much love. None of his opening acts usually do because everyone is just waiting for him! HE WAS MAGNIFICENT!!!! Simply BEAUTIFUL!

damn dude is fine tho

Alrighty then….. nice voice, I am not feeling the lyrics… a few songs on her cd just remind me of the old Mary days when she needed therapy…lol..

This comment is right on. Jazmine can sing but even though her voice may be older than 21 her lyrics sure aren’t this is not stuff we want to be promoting our young sisters to be doing.. busting windows, begging for a man. Not a good look

I LOVE THE VIDEO… I’ve already watched it like four times… I got the point of it without seeing her bust out any windows. Read between the scenes! The broken glass symbolized that she did it and the spray paint on the walls coupled with the broken wine glasses was just her bringing to light about the fact that she could have and should have done more, but he was lucky that all she did was bust his windows.

J Records really failed with this one. Jazmine is an incredible talent that deserves the treatment of an Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Whitney or a Mariah not a Mary J or a Keshia Cole (nothing against Mary and Keshia but). J went back but not far enough. This girl deserves great songs.

TOO MUCH WEAVE!

I like the video, who directed? Her expressions are priceless. I like that they did’nt show her busting the windows of the car, you get the just of it.

WTF??

This is the cheapest video in history!!! How are you going to have a song called BUST YOUR WINDOWS OUT YOUR CAR and you do everything EXCEPT “bust the windows out his car”???????

That’s like having a song called, “Peace on Earth” and you’re in the club ridin’ with your homies the whole time!!!!! Who the FUKK was the person who decided that this was a good idea?

The song is very interesting and different from anything on the radio, and nowadays, the video can make or break a song… WHO came up with this concept and WHY???

I Love this girl and her voice is sooooo talented. Go Jazzy. I pray that she makes it.
And also you all may not want to admit it. Wether we did it or not we have felt that way at one time . IOr should I say i have. Her boots were also hot!!!

Another thing a lot of these videos don’t match the lyrics, but people still watch it because of the artist. So stop hating and give her just do. because she can sang her tail off.

Now i fucks with Jazemine but they gon have to reshoot that shit, goodnight, how do you say i bust the windows out yo car several times and never bust shit, do yall remeber that monica video were she broke that big window glass WTF?

Me likey!

Though I love Jazmine’s album and this song….this video doesn’t do it justice. If she knew about this so called new rule then she shouldn’t have released the song period. She should have went with another song that she could be more creative with. I mean you are asking for a backlash and ppl to say something when you have a song called BUST YOUR WINDOWS, a song that’s loved for it’s visual imagery that it brings up, BUT YOU DON’T BUST WINDOWS..HELL U DON’T HAVE A CROWBAR IN THE VIDEO. Lmao!! That is just insane to have this video out and not do n e of those things. Crushing wine glasses? A five year old could do that? Spray paint?

Carrie Underwood just busted windows in the Before he Cheats video, they even did it on a live stage performance. So why couldn’t she even do it in the vid? It would have been hot had she bust the windows out, even performed in a rage while singing standing on top of the damaged car..seeing her scrawl her name in the car with a crowbar, would have been great with the song. Oh well. Just want to know who thought of that mess.

I LOVE THIS SONG AND I WAS HOPING TO SEE SOME WINDOWS BUSTING IN THIS VIDEO…THAT WOULD HAVE MAD THE VIDEO..NOW I DONT EVEN LIKE THE SONG BECAUSE IM ALWAYS GOING THINK ABOUT THIS WACK VIDEO..THE LEAST SHE COULD OF DID WAS BURN HIS CLOTHES OR SOMETHING…THROW THEM OUT THE WINDOW…SHE DIDNT DO ANYTHING BUT WASTE PERFECTLY GOOD ALCOHOL SHE COULD OF DRANK.

You people are idiots. She didn’t literally mean there is a censorship against busting windows. She was just saying that’s not the direction her video was to be in. I mean c’mon?

Wack Video. The video concept could have been better executed.

hmm…. not really feeling this chick yet.

This kinda reminds me of Ashantis video for “The Way that I love you”. The song is catchy and since shes a new artist she will get a fair amount of radio play…”I Need You Bad” had her on the path for a Grammy or something….This sets her back BAD CHOICE>!

When Jazmine’s video for “Need U Bad” premiered, I was a bit unsettled with the overall direction of her image. It seemed to me that the voice was the least of the record companies worries, so why wouldn’t they pull out the stops for her videos and photography? The lighting was terrible and the choice of loud, bright colors for the wardrobe didn’t help.

All of the promotional photos released were a bit awkward as if an amateur photographer had been at the helms. Even more susprising was the cover art for her album, which features and illustrated version of an original picture hiding her eyes.

One thing that improved with the “Bust Your Windows” clip was definitely the lighting. Well, at certain times. The opening sequence felt like smoke and mirrors, literally — like dollar store smoke and mirrors– and a bit low budget. The makeup and outfit choice, down to the accessories, look a bit silly in that shot. The bright lipstick and overblushed cheeks wasn’t exactly a flattering look. In contrast, the scenes showing Jazmine in the house were better; she looked chic with the natural makeup and neutral lip color. As for the wardrobe, again, it was questionable although two short shots of Jazmine with the white open-collared shirt and the leather trench coat would have been more welcomed.

Aside from the makeup and clothing, the use of semi-animation as a transition to and from scenes was interesting. The wine glass segment, the fish tank incident and the spray paint were all noble notions as well.

Ultimately, the fact that Jazmine’s rage never escalated to her doing anything to deface her lover’s car was quite a let down. In fact, her beau was out driving his car while Jazmine went on her mini-wrecking spree. I was waiting for the Angela Bassett to come out so we could watch her pile the boyfriend’s clothes in the car and set it a blaze. Nothing close to that happenend. In fact she and her boyfriend we never within five feet of each other.

The end result is a lackluster, almost pointless video to an innovative, catchy song. Hopefully as with the first single, “Bust Your Windows” will become a hit in spite of a less-than-stellar video.

Great voice but she is very boring to watch.

well damn its just a song…and umm if she cant bust windows in videos why get mad?!?! damn…everybody been saying how hot her album is……and it wasnt what i was expected but I do like this video!!! good one jazmine!

LOL…

HERE IS MY INTERPRETATION OF WHAT HAPPENED AFTER THE VIDEO…

(*cheating dude walks in the house…)

“What the hell happened? Did i leave my 2 month old puppy inside the house??? Oh well…i’ll just clean up this little meaningless mess here before me. A little wine on the table…a few records on the ground…a couple watches in my fish tank…NO BIG MESS AT ALL.”

(*proceeds to call the girl who the panties belong to…)

———————————————————————————————————————-

^^^If i got caught cheating, i would rather have a girl who threw a few vinyl records on the ground than one who “actually” busted out my shit. LOL!

Uh, where are the busted windows? Her initials with the crow bar? The song says, “I bust the window out your car”, not I messed up your house. Couldn’t they have done some special effects on a car to make it look like she messed it up? This video sucks! Can’t stop playin the cd though.

Jazmine’s cd is the business! I LUV this song and I really like the video. Makes me wanna do a drive by at my ex’s cribb and smash all his ish!!

i like it but i love trey songz version

Wow… I blame Brian…and people’s inability to author an original thought.

If Brian had not mentioned that he was disappointed in the direction of the video, (most) mofos would not have even noticed no actual windows had been bashed. Brian ,and everyone else for that matter, is certainly entitled to their opinion. However, in this case, I think it skewed the responses.

i love da sonq and her voice is pretty unique and she cud sinq. the video is pretty disspointinq though. i expected to at least see ONE window get the shyt beaten out of it with a crowbar. lol. oh well i guess this’ll do. it doesnt take away from her voice and the sonq itself.

TO ALL JAZMINE SULLIVAN HATERS! It’s truly sad when we as a human race can’t be happy for one another if you dont have nothing good to say don’t nothing at all. y’all just mad dat you bust windows and didnt get no money for it you just got ur ass whip and if you look at the consept of the video it was what she was feeling inside that she wanted to do it,but she was a stronger women than that an didn’t. UH DUH did you see the look in his face when he found the panties? she did more damage! JAZMINE YOU GO GIRL I LOVE THE ALBUM I PURCHASED IT FROM THE STORE NO BOOTLEG:)

i love this video n song look deeper into the video and you will understand the conspect!

I’m not crazy about the video either but I love the song.

Ok fine, you can’t bust windows, and I’m not the type to do that, but 1. Good watches are water proof, so I’m sure brotha man just fished them out with his net.

2. Why not pour the wine on the carpet?

3. I was waiting for a much more vindictive video.

@103

Wow that does make sense. At the end of the video ot shows the broken glass. I don’t think that they showed her bustin the windows because they didnt have the money to bust up a BMW but hey, she’s a new artist what do you expect.

I LOVE HER VOICE! keep up the good work Jazmine

I love this song and I am a Jazmine supporter but this video is not the biz-ness!!!

man i really thought she was gonna do somethin with that spray paint. damn shame.
anyway i love her voice, i don’t really like the song. and i must say, she is a pretty girl. beautiful smile.

CL, i love you guys. i am on this website everyday!!

119 #119 you summed up my entire opinion thank i didnt have to write all that … but all i wanna say is i concur!!!! whack video for such great talent

This is one of my fav song on Jaz album, it ain’t nothing new lyrics wise, but I just love vindictive songs like this, plus I’m really diggin the production and her voice. But video was just straight disappointment, and yes, yes cause there were no windows busted no scars on the hands…When I first heard the song I was already picturing the first shot where Jazmine comes up to the car and bust the damn windows…if you are on a low budget you dont have to bust the windows on a Range Rover or BMW or any other high-priced car, use your money wisely..the vid could have been a really good supplement to the song, but instead it was boring (the only interesting was the semi-animation in some parts) and Jaz acting was whack, she could have done better with showing her emotions and ish. Once again I’m not hating, I really like Jazmine, but the videos disappointed me..just IMO

Its aaight, but dont it remind ya’ll of something that could be on MTV Wild n Out!! Can already see Katt Williams of Naima Funk singin ‘I’ll bust the windows of yo car’

Its aaight, but dont it remind ya’ll of something that could be on MTV Wild n Out!! Can already see Katt Williams of Naima Funk singin ‘I’ll bust the windows of yo car’

I can see why some of these foreign countries ban these idiotic songs and “artists”, and call it Satan’s music. “Bust Your Windows”? What’s next? “Castrate a Nigga Because He Didn’t Call Me After I Gave Him Some”? Alot of sisters are gonna get themselves arrested, their asses whupped, or worse just off listening to this nonsense.

I love this song too. Her voice is amazing and I don’t know…this song kind of gives me an old school vibe. I love it. The video is ok, but i guess she couldn’t glorify violence on the video..gots to think of the kiddies i guess..lol.

I love the song..the album is FIYA!

Hmmmm… HOT song. Lack luster video.

fuck all yall who said she lame

I love it!!! I like her she’s something creative new and talented!!! Lord knows we have boring and packaged to make money role covered..

her voice is amazing. and i love her!!

Jazmine Sullivan is an amazing artist and she has made a place for herself in the industry. I love the song because I can definitely relate to the lyrics..literally…LOL! Even though Jazmine wasn’t able to bust any windows i love how they brought it across to the audience…In the song she says “I bust your windows out your car, you should be lucky that thats all I did” but in the video they showed her doing a whole lot more but then in actuality she only busted the windows, trailing the broken glass to the La Pearla garment on the bed in the bedroom. I totally love the concept of the video since she couldn’t really go off on the car!

I feel cheated she didn’t bust a window outta nothing….C’mon now step your budget up, that video was very dry and its been done too many times before

They shouldve consulted with me to make the video. I done bust a plenty of car windows. And they still luv me. That’s some straight passion. Now, I said it!

The point of the hook is to evoke that deep sinking feeling you get when you get busted and your lover takes revenge. The car in the video was his paintings and his wine collection as they were all things that he cared about. In the end though, we saw the thick broken glass trail that led to the panties in the bed. The glass kind of looked like windshield glass. The video wanted us to use our imagination and I think it’s cool when the video is not a literal interpretation of the song. It causes of to think differently about what we hear and see.

LMAO@ 43!!!! I know right. That should be the new saying for 2008! “What would Michelle Obama Do! I like Jazmine, but I really dislike this video and I agree with those who have said that her label doesnt quite know what to do with her.
