For Sean Kingston’s chart topping debut single, Beautiful Girls, producer Jonathan “JR” Rotem sampled the classic Ben E. King song, Stand By Me. As a result, Kingston’s debut album has reached gold-certification and the Miami-born reggae singer has become an in demand feature artist. Looking to achieve similar success with Mann, the newest artist to sign with his Beluga Heights label, Rotem has reached into his sample vault and scooped up a ‘83 classic. Using the melody from Billie Joel’s popular single, Uptown Girl, Mann and Kingston create a modern day version entitled, Ghetto Girl. Though it won’t help either artist with their street cred, expect to hear this one plastered on the radio all spring.
Not bad...But if JR pushes Mann ahead of Auburn, I will likely be bugging all of Mann's song posts with "Auburn gets sidelined for THIS?!?!" What I did to help Cheri Dennis finally get her album out, I will do to help Auburn get hers...Learn from Diddy, JR, and don't rob Petra to pay Paul!

haha yup this is just the song for one girl i know ... lol too funny haha .... but hmmm this is like diff ... sean king and jr have been usin oldie beats and so fars its been workin for em ..... this is a lil diff but it in rot ... ha
yeah i was about to rant about Kingston usin all those old songs and not comin out w/creativity... but this song is fun ya'll know it and gonna make it a ringtone 4 when ur girl calls don't lie i aint mad at ya!
dude is super cute. and yeah the song is corny and he sound a lil weird but original at the same time. i like it tho. if ppl can get into sayin sumthin cheesey like "my lipgloss is poppin" (which i can admit i was sayin it occassionally), then we can deal with this song. i could hear this on the radio and see myself jammin to it.
i hate that sean kingston nigga!!... he speaks perfect english and changes his voice when he be singin!!! and he a rapper!! why the fuck he singin for!! he couldnt make it as a rapper i guess!!
Kingston kills it but still has that "disney" sound people talk of, like when hes on a track like this it automatically makes me picture a bunch of 16 year old girls around kingston lol besides taht its produced well, mann seems good and the beat is hot so I gotta rate it good.
Haha..You gotta love kingston for doing shit like this. Not really my cup of tea but I can't deny this guy's talent for making catchy ass songs. Can't forget J-J-J-J.R.
I LIKE THE BEAT BY JR ROTEM BUT THAT'S ABOUT IT. SEAN KINGSTON WAS GOOD. BUT MANN MAN HE SUCKS..... IF IT WAS SEAN SONG IT WOULD BEEN A BANGER. BUT WAT CAN I SAY IT WILL BE ON THE RADIO. AND EVEY GIRL WOULD BE SINGIN THIZ.SO I GIVE IT A OK
huh....i thought i already rated and commented on dis? well, guess not so.....Sean Kingston did really gud and Mann- imma have to hear mor from him. Its kinda childish- idk...but i guess dat can b cool.
