Though this is Dominic‘s first solo feature, our regulars may remember him from his guest contributions to two Booth-approved singles.  After taking a trip to Paradise with Young Chris and Weezy, Dom earned further reader acclaim for his hook vocals on Joe Budden‘s Padded Room lead single, The Future.  On Hear Me Now, the Orange County singer addresses an ex who ended their relationship by leaving without explanation, but has now returned in hopes of winning him back.  Battling with painful memories of their time together, he informs her that, now that he’s found someone new, there’s no hope of rekindling the flame.  Complete with a catchy piano/guitar accompaniment by Brandon Alexander, Hear Me Now may well herald the up-and-comer’s entry into the major leagues—let the multi-label bidding war begin!

I always love the laid-back piano productions but this dude was just OK. I mean it wasn't bad, but there are a lot better singers out there that would have killed this beat. This is the first time that I've heard from him though, I'll look out for him in the future.

I love the piano and guitar in the production, it's beautiful, but I feel like the heavy synths just cover it up and almost ruin it. I'll co-sign that1kid13, cuz his vocals are cool but they just didn't blow me away. In rotation for the synth-free portions (which is most of it) of the production.

Dominic sent the Booth a batch of THREE records. After listening to them all several times - and getting the expect opinion of the best music staff EVER - we came to the decision to feature HEAR ME NOW. Though it might not sound different enough for him to stand out, it falls in line with EVERYTHING that has been working so well at radio. His voice is enjoyable and the melody of this song is repeat-worthy.

Co-signed on the known commodity we industry-folk like to call... talent.

I'd expect this kind of music from Mario, so yes, he has the right/potential to shine as much.

This is not the song (melody is too standard) to get him that spot though.

Good falsettos on the second verse.

DOMINIC...... I am going to say this ...... but most of you will not really feel me yet, because you don't know what I know about this kid. He is a multi-talent threat, that you will be reckoning with. "Remember I said that". Now the song, "Hear Me Now", I like it, the music track is sexy, Dom has a great voice and sings this well. What I love about Dom is his songwriting skill, the boy is a beast, when he blows up, and he will, hes going to be around for a long, long time!

My dude Dominic has like 100,000 songs in the stash.. lol I dont know how he was able to chose which ones to send you guys. He has some hits alot of people havent heard yet.. Dominic stands out because his songwriting can be deep AND comercial at the same time HARD combo to comeby these days. Some of his subject matter is RIDICULOUS. I like the song very mello- laid back, something you could play and relate to when you actually go thru that situation.

^^^love that. TQ's Paradise is probably one of my favorites of all-time.

Dominic kills Joe Budden's The Future so if you want to hear him in a harder spotlight, check it out. Great song there.

Hear Me Now is good and you can tell he has a great flow, voice and mind, but his mainstream stuff will primarily be as the hook. I could see him coming out this year like Akon of 06, Kingston of 07 and so on... but better.

The man's skills just keep getting tighter... He doesn't cease to amaze me, with the variety of styles he has at his command... Just as I begin to think that he is all in, he drops another one, that doesn't sound anything like, he has done before, he is a Magician... HEAR ME NOW!!!
