It’s been almost a year since we last heard J. Holiday – on his Round 2 album – and almost three years since the release of his breakthrough smash Bed. So what’s the DMV crooner been up to during all that time off? Honestly, I have no idea, but somewhere in there he started recording new music, including his new offering Pretty Body. Originally leaked, Pretty Body uses some remarkably Dream-esque production from Los Da Mystro (who also produced Bed) to set the stage for Holiday’s trademark seductive falsetto, a stage he fills with some appropriately steamy lyrics. For some reason I feel like the ladies are going to swoon over this one (if ladies still swoon). So, will Holiday’s decision to make the most out of a leaked situation and turn Pretty Body into an official single lead to a full blown comeback when his currently untitled third album drops sometime this year? That, Booth, is up to you to decide.

I spoke with J's manager this morning and asked him what their plan was after this song leaked. He said they were encouraged and would run with it as the new single. While it is not Bed, it is an enjoyable listen.

beat is to lively to be a true bedroom burner yet his voice and lyrics are both still aimed as though it is one

Good, but it's lacking that extra element that made some of his past tracks a hit. Honestly, this wouldn't make it into my bedroom, but it's close.

This doesn't have that extra "oomph" that bed had even though it really wants to be the sequel to it and i can't get on board with the high pitch vocals on this. I think maybe Trey can pull this off.

J.Holiday needs to stay away from Los Da Mystro's beats and need to find beats to distinguish himself from The-Dream or just stop trying to recreate "Bed". I don’t think it is a stand out in any way, but anyway the song is catchy... 2.5

the beat reminds me of "Shawty Is A Ten" so that's the main reason i gave it a 2, it's not anything new

You Guys need softer hearts. You cant be hellbent on hearing guys talking about getting girls in bed all the time. Try opening up to these kinda songs, for those of you who didnt like it.

This is better than Just Ok, but when I think J. Holiday I think Bed(DUH?) or a catchy feature chorus on someone else's record. It might take a couple spins for me to get into this. Signature Mystro production.

sounds like LOS took "shawty is a 10" and R.Kelly's "#1 fan" and made this. all these LOS/Dream/Tricky tracks sound so much alike, sometimes it works though. In this case, it leaves me wanting more. It's good, but not great.

I'm feeling this. You know the honeys are going to stampede the dance floor when this is played. You can practically see the females in their car at the stop light singing this at the top of their lungs.
