♫ Alexandra Burke ft. Flo Rida – Bad Boys
Winner of UK singing competition The X Factor ‘08, Alexandra Burke’s new single has recently leaked on the internet. The track, entitled “Bad Boys” features rapper Flo Rida and premiered on BBC Radio on Tuesday afternoon.
Burke signed a $3.5 million deal with Epic US back in March and her debut album is expected to hit stores in the U.K. in October. No word on a U.S. release date yet.


Heard 1 sec of this song and thought it’s not worth listening to the rest. Alex loved you on The X Factor but this song is not going to help you be a star. I feel bad for Alex because she appeared on The X Factor so her success will be compared to fellow alumni Leona. If she’s coming with this mess she going to keep coming up second best, sorry.
I like it…Sounds like something Christina Aguilera would do!
3.5 million dollars …u r kidding right – for that
my friend told me this was wack and their music taste is on point so i never really had high hopes 4 this. i’m not feelin it it sounds really dated n cheesy but its her first official song so im willling to give her the benefit of the doub her album might be fire
THANKYOU @ 20 & 27
AND AS FOR YOU POISON IVY YOU NEED TO GROW THE FUK UP AND STOP HATING
NOW I DIDNT WANNA SAY THIS BUT RIHANNA WHO YOU ALL WORSHIP IS LIKE THE BIGGEST SELL OUT I’VE EVER SEEN WHAT HAPPENED TO HER ISLAND DAYS U KNO ROLL IT GYAL THE SONGS U COULD PLAY AT THE CLUB
U CAN SAY SHE HAS “WHITE PPL” MUSIC NOWW BUTTT NOO YOU DONT COZ SHES AMERICAN AND U DONT WANNA HATE ON HER
PEOPLE LIKE POISON IVY MAKE ME WANT TO STOP LISTENING TO AMERICAN MUSIC ALL TOGETHER
I MEAN AMERICAN BASED
i like the song but it doesn’t appeal to urban america i see it being big on MTV and in Europe but i love it
posion ivy just has nicca ears thats all she doesn’t really need to appeal to urban radio to be a success you need to appeal to top 40 to be a success which this is! afer a second listen i’m hooked! it sounds like something from the birdcage though!
if she was looking to be a crossover….and not R&B, this was the song. It gives off Rihanna (before she went bad). Good vocals, nice production, catchy chours…I hope it shoots her to the top.
@ KEVIN
STFU. NO NEED TO BASH CIARA, RIHANNA, AND BRITNEY (WHO HAVE ALREADY MADE THEIR MARK IN THE INDUSTRY) JUST TO MAKE ALEXANDRA LOOK GOOD. IF YOU LIKE IT JUST SAY SO AND MOVE THE FUKK ON.
SHE IS GORGEUS NO DOUBT, BUT THE SONG, IM NOT FEELING.MUSIC IS CHANGING AND I CANT MAKE THAT MOVE WITH IT.I PERSONALLY I LIKE A GOOD BOY/MAN WITH A JOB.LOL.SHE CAN ATLEAST SONG.SHE SHOULD SONG LOW TEMPLE NOT THIS, NOT FEELIN IT.BUT WHAT DO I KNOW.FLO’RIDA IS A RIP OFF OF TWISTA AND IM NOT HAVIN IT. FLO’RIDA GO BACK TO FLORIDA AND GIVE CHITOWN TWISTA BACK HIS SOUND,GOOD BOYS FINISH LAST AND TIME IS ALMOST UP.
defo a grower…i love this girl..
i just want her to do well..
i pray her album is more of a rnb, funky fresh sound
some americans are really narrow minded ie poison ivy.
give her a chance.
oh and yeah it was an american production team. plantation boyz.
She has too much talent to be singing this generic crap. Shame on her…
I LOVE IT. Its a real frower like ppl have been sayin. Im just glad that she didnt come out with the typical RnB stuff, Then ppl wuld be like that she is just another RnB singer. If she relleased a ballad as her first single ppl wuld be like, oh she’s copyin Leona Lewis bla bla bla. Atleast she’s tryin somethin different weather America wuld like ir or not, i dnt care. US BRITISH PPL HAVE ALL KINDS OF MUSIC.
A
i would say that this is kinda elelctro-RnB. Somethin different atleast. She’s bein creative with her album which is good, and based on the leaks too her album is gonna be include different types of music.
SOO MANY RASCISTS AND STEREOTYPICAL COMMENTS, ITS DISGUSTING!!!
she can def sing but i dont like the song. plus she needs to come out with a great video to make it worth someting
also y did they pick flo-rida to be on this track. he is a wack rapper/artist
Too much Flo, not enough Alex.
SHE SOUNDS GREAT BUT THE POP SOUND DOESN’T FIT HER VOICE!
SHE NEEDS TO SING R&B MUSIC!
THEY SHOULD’VE USE A DIFFERENT RAPPER BECAUSE FLO RIDA IS NOT REALLY A GOOD POP RAPPER, HE’S JUST DOING THAT TYPE OF MUSIC TO GET MONEY.
Poison Ivy, how ignorant of you? Isnt this basically the sound that is populating the charts these days, across Europe, USA etc?? Akon, Lady Gaga…they all have this electro/dance sound anyways, I never knew people defined talent and music by colour and nationality.
And you say (no offence) then say ‘you can tell she is from the UK because she sounds flat’ Ummm wait no offence?! You blatantly defeated the purpose of that whole statement.
Your obviously a very narrow minded person. HOW SAD, that there are still ignorant people like yourself in this world…
Obviously the music industry is evolving and so is the sound, and Ms Alexandra Burke has got it down to a T. The sound will grow me, however its a hit! And she can sing!!!
In this generation, and within this century…Poison Ivy, develop some brain cells yeah?
Folks can hate all you want..its a good song AND IT DESERVES A CHANCE. This song is a definite GROWER AND YOU CAN’T TELL ME you aint tapping yo’ dayum feet and bopping your head to this song. Aren’t you folks tired of being HATERS?
