HOT OR NOT: OLIVIA FEAT. DRAKE – “CONTROL”

April 11th, 2010


♫ Olivia feat. Drake – Control

Remember singer/songwriter, Olivia? She was originally the first signee to Clive Davis’s J. Records, and then was the first lady of 50 Cent’s G-Unit label.

She never released her Behind Closed Doors album via the G-Unit imprint, but she announced signing a deal with Universal Records, where she will released her official sophomore album, Show the World, which will drop later this year.

The first single, “Control,” features newcomer and fan-favorite, Drake.

    her flow sounds tired, familiar, there’s nothing special about her or this song. Ciara could have sung this…anybody could have sung this. I like her hair in the pic though.

    The song is cool. I can’t wait to hear what her other music sounds like. I hope she brings it. I like her hair in the pic 2.
    @ cutiepie…I heard of Krystal Brooke, my friend has her mixtape. It was pretty good.

    I don’t really like the song but I kind of like it because of Drake – just because this is how he sounded when he like FIRST started out.

    There’s nothing about this song that screams “hit record” to me. I hope she finally achieves success this time around. I still love her first record ‘bizounce”

    It’s okay, nothing spectacular and nothing that would make me want to buy her album. Olivia never made it big because she’s not marketable, she just doesn’t have any star quality if you ask me.

    Drake was pretty dope though.

    I like the song its cute. It sounds like something i can bump in the summer. I just hope she has the right people behind her to really promote herself and let people know that she is a artist and not just the girl from G-Unit.

    I actually like this a lot. I wish another female was singing it though. Olivia didn’t bring much to the track. Ciara, Keri, Monica, Keyshia, Brandy, Janet, hell even Ashanti all would’ve given the song more character and made it more memorable.

    On the real, thats what she needs… or maybe I should say NEEDED!

    She should’ve came out with one of those back when Keyshia Cole was filmin season 1!! She would’ve been relevant by now….

    WHAT DO I THINK OF OLIVIA’S NEW SINGLE “Control,” featuring, Drake? I’m fascinated reading the comments from melkay4356, Roz Doyle, musiclover, & cutiepie. There is a true love hate affair 4 OLIVIA. Some of UR loving the song like SWEET TEA but others are SUCKING on the LEMON. Well sugar, honey, ice tea leave out the lemon boo, boo. I love the song it will build & gain air play very quick.

    I must admit that this track grows on you quickly!

    It is a bit left-field in terms of production, however it does grab you.

    I agree with @Rayson… good job O!
