Bow Wow - Roc Da Mic ft. Jermaine Dupri
Artist: Bow Wow
Featuring: Jermaine Dupri
Producer: Jermaine Dupri
Album: New Jack City Part 2
Label: Cash Money/Universal Republic
In late ‘07, Bow Wow felt that it was time to part ways with Jermaine Dupri, his musical mentor of more than a decade. Less than a year later, Bow realized just how wrong he was and decided to patch things up, an experience that served as inspiration for a brand new single off the long-delayed New Jack City Part 2. Bow and JD split the track equally, citing their rabid female fanbases and the similar brands of swagger they bring when they Roc Da Mic as evidence that they’re meant to be in this business together. With Dupri also handling production duties, the track feels like a family reunion (even though the collaborators have been apart for less than a year). Roc Da Mic is the first half of a new dual single (the second, Baby You Can Have It All, is coming soon) off New Jack City Part 2, which is set to arrive in stores and online this March.

rappers usually devote a track to some friend or whoever, but this really sounds gay...

Pretty hot production from JD, he's always been a better producer than rapper. I can't really give street cred to either of the artists, so I'm glad they made a light song and didn't try to sound street. They both came pretty right here though, and the song is catchy in itself. Can listen to this one on the radio.

Black folks always quick to call something gay or soft real quick. LAME!
The production on this fresh and both Mr. Moss and Mr. Dupri came hot (no homo) with the swagger. |

This is pretty dope. MH is right, though it's not just some people, it's every in general that does it. Lol, how does "weak" go to "gay"?

I agree with the first, Bow Wow needs to stop making music, he can't make the transition to Adult rapper.

I'm sorry I am not even tryin' to swagger jack first poster but ish is GAY!, talking bout another dude about what he looks like with his shirt off is just too much for me. Then we talk just a like, walk just a like they sound like dey in luv not two friends. IF you want to dedicate a song to a friend (Like what Jada did for Biggie, kwl) that is fine but the way this one rolls just seems a little left field and deez niggas need to just start shoppin together in Castro and it'll all spill out from there. Production at first hit nice then it started to get kinda blah.

Woah! What happen to Bow Wow nowadays??? He's being garbage lately... let me guess is it because he's hanging out with Soulja Boy too much or is it because he's giving up?? Hmm either one I'm not impressed over his last few songs he has dropped. I have to pass...

He sounds annoying but the production is super in my opinion. It's smooth and sexy...it's not a masterpiece but I'd put it in rotation. I've heard way worse from Bow Wow that's sure

what most people is saying is true bow wow is having a hard time with the transition from boy to man(may be he should get the same operation like Micheal Jackson) |
