Listen to More: R&B

As the newest R&B singer to sign with J Records, 21-year old Jazmine Sullivan has quite the summer ahead of her. Going with the typical ‘pining over a lost love’ ballad route, the Philadelphia songbird quickly turns her regret into resolve, telling her ex-man “I Need U Bad.” In Sullivan’s corner is the iconic Missy Elliot, who delivers a smooth, relaxing beat that is similar to past work with Monica, Mya, and Keyshia Cole among many others. As the summer heats up, I Need U Bad might just be the perfect remedy for a frosty, bitter relationship hiccup. Check back in July to see if this one produces some fireworks…

dmase1202 DJ Booth Member Total Ratings: 56	Rating: dmase1202's Top Rated Songs Not what i was expecting at all. But this song is on point. I have never heard of Sullivan before, but missy definitely comes through on this one

jesavail02 Resident DJ Total Ratings: 1161	Rating: jesavail02's Top Rated Songs A solid roots reggae beat on this song. I can definitely blast this track during the summer while tipping back some Red Stripe. I can't get Lauren Hill out of my mind when I listen to this song, I don't know why. I would never expect a production like this from Missy. Big up to Missy for this tune.

If you’re into reggae (feelin that bassline in your chest), you’ll love this. If you’re not, then it should make you become. It’s interesting actually that A_NAY mentions the CHORUS as the best part, cuz that’s exactly what you’ll like the most if you’re also not into reggae: it suddenly turns into a regular R&B joint. I’m IMPRESSED with the production coming from Missy Elliot! Very good and complex, but maybe the transition from verses to chorus could be less abrupt (some instruments come in, some go out and you can hear a vacuum, like out of place for a second). Jazmine’s voice is distinctive, NICE VOCALS! Melody and lyrics are a PLEASURE TO LISTEN.
