Two of the music world’s best-kept secrets have teamed up for a mid-tempo acoustic-heavy club song.  While rapper B.o.B. gets the lead credit on Slow, singing/songwriting duo Rock City‘s contribution is so large that it could easily be credited the other way around.  The song finds B.o.B. once again (hey, practice makes perfect) spitting game to a Heavy Breather who’d like Grip Your Body, but Rock City starts Losing It and they are all forced to say, “See Ya Around.”  With a guitar-heavy beat, Slow will definitely rock anywhere from Atlanta to the Virgin Islands and continue to showcase two acts who won’t be best kept secrets much longer.

This is hot. B.O.B. is on fire right now. He knows how to pick the hottest beats, as I don't think I've heard anything but production fire from his songs.

I really like the swagger on this track. The beat is matched by the energy of B.o.B. on this track. This is ride music, club music, and everything in between. I am gonna bump this!

This B.o.B guy hasn't yet to impress me as of yet, he sounds like an underground rapper not yet ready to emerge into the rap game, but that is just me... I think this track is terrible, flow is dumb, beat is even dumber... He gon earn my respect when his music is worth listening to.

Songs like Slow require the artists to take full advantage of their vocal tracks and not rely so heavily on the production. In an era where ring tone sales make you top dollar, artists have forgotten that the words matter too. Solid effort.

Everything Rock City touches has that magic goin on (even on Beanie Sigel’s) and you already know they’re there. Don’t know B.o.B. very well but he impressed me with a kinda fast verse, sounds really cool and fresh ((better than on Grip your body). Beat is good but could be more appealing. Definitely feelin your words Z! 3*

I have heard better from Rock City and B.o.B. This is a decent track, but not the best from these two artists.

Big Tune. Rock City really just caught me by surprise and I'm from the islands. Just didn't expect that. Haven't let me down yet. Keep Reppin to the fullest fellas.

B.o.B. holds his own as well. I like the beat. It's definitely something I'll bang in the clubs.

Im sorry, but DJ Z what is this? This music sounds like one person yelling , a whack ass beach, and the repeating of words. I would hope to hear this song in the club for about 30 seconds of the song where he tells the girl to get down, down, down, down! But then agian I could just turn on my radio, and turn to any pop station and I can hear how shawty got low a hundred times!

Zay550, I appreciate the feedback, but I didn't make the music! Haha. Whether you feel different after listening to other work from both artists or not, I can say tell you with 100% confidence that B.o.B. and Rock City have plenty of talent!

I have to agree with DJ Z on this matter. B.o.B and Rock City are talented. Go and listen to their other tracks.
