When you’re involved in the plethora of shadiness that is the music industry it’s easy to become cynical, but every so often the good guy really does finish first; and by good guy I mean B.o.B. After years of setbacks things are finally looking up Bobby Ray (how does a top ten hit sound?), and once the public gets a taste of his expansive musical versatility on tracks like Satellite, the sky’s the limit. Although Satellite was originally leaked last year, today we have the album quality, mixed and mastered version of the track that finds B.o.B. foregoing the Bet I Bust rhyme style in favor of some sonically floating instrumentation and production, courtesy of the man himself, and appropriately spacey vocals that Bobby, somewhat inexplicably, decides to deliver in an English accent on the second verse. Why? I don’t know, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility to assume he was, um, “high.” B.o.B.’s long-awaited debut album The Adventures of Bobby Ray, which will include Satellite as a bonus track, will finally reach orbit on April 27.

As I told Bobby in my interview with him a few months back, my mother LOVES this record (I put it on her iPod). And folks, when my mother loves a record, you know it really good.

Great moving resurrecting it, fine-tuning it and putting it on the debut as a bonus track!

B.o.B. is easily one of my favorite artists out there right now. Creativity is always what I'm lookin for and he is so damn versatile. This sounded a little reggae-ish, And I liked it. A lot.

Hearing this song always disappoint me a little bit, but not for the reason you may think. I've seen B.o.B. do this live, and it was so incredibly good that hearing it in my headphones always feels like a let down. Which is to say, this track is amazing, and it's f**king unbelievably amazing live.

That might not have made any sense, but it's true.

B.o.B skills shines once again, knowing exactly how to dose sci-fi-tastic electro synth-lines with some twangy guitar undertones, and sprinkle abstract but highly catchy lyrics around it in just the right amount. This finely crafted tune put you in a good mood/zone instantly.

great song but i think i like the older version better. this is most likely because im used to it, but some of the added affects/ new vocals sound a little off to me. however, amazing song either way.

I may be in the minority here who actually thinks this is one of B.o.B.'s weaker tracks. I love the production but I feel like the vocals and lyrics are a bit lacking.

In addition, this isn't a bonus track on the album. It's smack in the middle of the track listing. I was expecting a lot more from this album but, between this and "Bet I Bust", I think I may be looking at a 4 star album when I was hoping for a 5. :\

Then again, I hope the tracks with Eminem and Lupe prove me wrong.

I thought the version on B.o.B. vs. Bobby Ray was okay, but for some reason I like this much better.
Which is weird since it's not THAT different. Oh well..

@Nathan - Couldn't agree more, listening to this live was amazing. That being said, this was (and is) one of my favorite tracks from Bobby Ray.

honestly, im still not completely sold on B.O.B. or his new album, but i kno that major potential is there. as for now, i like him more and more with every release.

Nothin' On You + Bet I bust + Satellite= a great appetizer for the album.

i have to say this has nothing on "nothing on you" (pun intended) but it has that relaxing, spacey feel to it which everyone can just enjoy (well i think they should) solid rotation

Nice record. B.O.B. is a true artist... Dude is not in the game for money and fame, he is music and culture. Props to him and my man TJ (TjsDjs) for dedicating his time and energy into this mans project/career. Good to see him getting love.

Dope song. The production is well, but needs more of a rapping verse, and the second verse is weird the way he talks.

My main dude...thinking this dude would make it but im effin ecstatic that hes getting his due now. this spacey production by Bobby Ray himself fits perfectly with his synthed hook. His lyrics are the only thing he prolly shud improve but im not taking anything away from this joint. it speaks to you and carries you away.

BTW his british accent verses cracked me up but were still entertaining.

3.5. This is probably my least favorite B.o.B song that I've heard on the Booth. But thats not saying much since every other song he has on her is a banger. Really good verses. Chorus is aight.
