Bobby V - Words
Artist: Bobby V
Producer: The Pentagon
Album: Fly on the Wall
Label: Blue Kolla Dreams/Capitol
Ever thought about how ironic it is that the axiom “Actions speak louder than words” is itself made up of, well, Words? Unless you’re communicating in sign-language… or hieroglyphics. OK, maybe I’m overanalyzing a little – in any case, it’s got a much nicer ring than the less diplomatic ”Put or up or shut up.” However you choose to word it, that sentiment is the theme of the latest single from Bobby V., on which the R&B mainstay challenges a girl to demonstrate through her behavior that she’s wifey material. Backed by the breezy synth production of The Pentagon (formerly The Underdogs), the EMI/Blue Kolla crooner shows his vulnerable side as he asks the aforementioned female to allay his doubts – in the process, of course, exhibiting all of the smooth vocal skills that fans have come to expect. So, Booth readers, how does this joint stack up against fake-lead single Stilettos & T-Shirt and actual-lead single Phone #? If you like what you’re hearing, you’ll want to keep it locked for the latest on Bobby V.‘s junior album, Fly on the Wall, which is currently set for release in early 2011.

Without a doubt, "Words" is the best of the bunch of the songs that Bobby has offered up on his forthcoming new album. This doesn't scream "trying to get on the radio," and because of that I think it will actually do quite well. No guest rapper, no corny hook, and no auto-tune. Good stuff, BV.

This song blows away every previous single this era (that's Phone #, which wasn't bad at all). This is a classic, can't wait for it to be huge.

i can't call it a classic but it is close. I like the production and vocals, but i actually think this track could use a rapper in it. i think that would jolt my rating atleast

I really like this track. Very nice sound from Bobby V and the subject matter is crucial.

Can I tell a little behind the scenes story first? This Bobby Valentino was sued by a British musician also named Bobby Valentino, who won the law suit, and now we're legally obligated to only refer to him as Bobby V, not Bobby Valentino. Huh.
Anyway, I have to agree with Z on this one. This is a return to the kind of quality r&b that first got me into Bobby B, instead of some of the patron/strippers/swag joints we've heard lately. More like this please. |
