Jack Splash - I Could Have Loved You
Artist: Jack Splash
Featuring: Missy Elliot , Jazmine Sullivan
Producer: Jack Splash
Album: Technology and Love Might Save Us All
Label: J Records
Here in the Twin Cities, Prince is still held in very high regard, but the sad truth of the matter is that his last couple dozen albums just haven’t packed the freaky, feel-good punch of his ‘80s output. Plus he’s gone a little crazy, and not in the cool, Let’s Go Crazy sense. Now, I’m not saying anyone could fill the Purple One’s tiny, tiny shoes (in fact, it would probably hurt to try), but up-and-coming singer/producer Jack Splash showcases a similar spark on his first feature, making its exclusive world premiere right here in the Booth. Thanks to the J Records signee’s clipped falsetto and keyboard-driven, electro-funk instrumental, I Could Have Loved You sounds a little like a club-hop reimagining of ‘86 hit Kiss. Booth-acclaimed soul songstress Jazmine Sullivan and veteran femcee Missy Elliot bring plenty of big-name appeal with (respectively) an ultra-catchy hook and a sexed-up closing verse, but it’s Splash’s own breathless vocals that truly carry this left-of-center banger. For more of this up-and-comer’s retro-futuristic sounds, grab a copy of Technology and Love Might Save Us All when it hits stores September 1st.

Not for me...and usually I don't rate songs not for me but I don't think it's just too me. It's just too awkward; Jazmine's vocals are good but I'm not feeling Jack Splash and I waited what felt like a very long time for Missy...which didn't amaze me.

Dope picture. Catches the eye immediately. Prince where you at?? This is your style everyone is bitin these days. Mixed with some weird Daft Punk/Disco shit in this case. It's not bad, but alil off the wall for me.

Some pretty weird and bizarre production featured on this song with a lot of strange sounds and synths making up the composition.
I have mixed feeling about this... I really like the beat but some parts (Read: Jazmine and Missy) just sound better to me. |

Its not a track that could make waves in the charts, however his other (leaked) joint with Kells & T-Pain - "Ringtone" is goin to be a surefire HITT ...

Ma'an...If someone mixes this with another track in the club. MAYBE! Might make some move club night, but won't catch it in truck rotation beatin!

This is not bad at all. The thing is, we aren't hearing much of this kind of music nowadays so to some it might not strike a chord right away. It's a cool track though. @Mr. Top Hat - I'm still deciding on that "Ringtone" track. I'm a die hard R. Kelly fan and I can see what direction they maybe going with it. Might be tailored more for an international audience

I though better from the beginning, but I must say that as the song goes ahead I kinda like it. It gets really catchy and energetic! At least it's something different!

This has a unique sound that will not catch everyone's attention as well as the pic did. May have 2 listen 2 more of Jack cuz I'm a huge Prince fan and Jack's sound reminds me of my beautiful royal badness. I might could love you.
