John Legend - Tonight (Best You Ever Had)
Featuring: Ludacris
Producer: Phatboiz
Album: Think Like a Man Soundtrack
Label: G.O.O.D. Music/Columbia
On the recently-featured lead single and title track off Think Like a Man‘s official soundtrack LP, Jennifer Hudson tried her best to step outside her everyday habits of thought and get into the head of the less-fair sex. While hers was a valiant effort, it was hardly the final word on the matter. Today, two male heavyweights from the worlds of R&B and hip-hop offer their perspective on single number two off the project. The findings… well, they should surprise roughly no one. Penned and performed by John Legend, Tonight (Best You Ever Had) finds Phatboiz crafting a sultry yet driving synth backdrop as the R&B heavyweight expresses two damn-near-universal desires of heterosexual males: to get it in with a beautiful woman, and to be the greatest lover she’s ever had. Ludacris throws a bit of a curveball on the guest tip, skewing tender and uncharacteristically subdued where you’d expect him to let his freaky side shine. So, was this song the best you ever heard—or at least good enough to drop 89 cents on? You’ll get the chance to do just that when Tonight arrives on iTunes next Tuesday, the 31st, via Epic Records. Watch for Think Like a Man (the film) to hit theaters in March.

Who isn't a fan of Legend or Luda? But this could have been bumped up a notch in tempo. Doesn't it feel like its dragging just a little? Might just be in the mood I am in as I sit here listening.

I am a huge fan of JL, and I really like this track that he released with Luda.

This beat has a good knock to it. I like the Luda and Legend combo. A good track I'm sure will be playing on radio stations everywhere soon.

I like this it's smooth. R&B 'Legend' shows his skills as a hitmaker as usual and this will surely get airtime.
Luda is defo subdued on this one, but the Ludacris/Legend mix works and this collabo proves a listen, towards the end may seem laborious to some, it's definitelys a catchy one. |

Had my reservations when I first saw these two names on that title. While both amazing on their own I didn't think their styles could co-exist on the same track as fluidly as they did. Sounds like they've been doing this for years, maybe they have, maybe it's slipped by me.. Dope track

I usually love John Legend's soulful vocals, but he just sounds boring here. Luda drops some of his most decent rhyme-work in a while. Decent boardwork as well.
