When Mike Jones released his debut album, Who Is Mike Jones?, in April of ’05, the record industry hadn’t yet suffered the massive drop-off in revenue it’s currently experiencing (remember- Jones nearly reached double platinum). Three years later, the Houston native hopes to release his long awaited follow-up,The Voice of The Streets, this April, after watching his American Dream DVD/CD go bust. While his current single Drop and Gimme 50 has remained stagnant at radio, My Burner, a collaboration with Plies, makes an entrance into our DJBooth. The track is an ode to Mike’s favorite gun, and to show us how much he loves it, he graces the beat with his singing vocals. Yup, never a dull moment in this industry.
production is tight...but...Mike Jones...tryna pull off tha Akon style singin???...uhh...lol...plz...keep this a rough draft...and let me be your prooflistener...take my advice...either double-up your vocals or take tha singin out period...and did Plies even finish his verse?...sounded like he wanted to say more kinda?...but this track's "ok"...~
Akon is producing a whole lot of music lately. This is one of his weaker tracks in my opinion. I don't like the way Mike Jones tries to flow like Akon at all. I'm not feeling his flow at all on here. It's pretty average.
I'm with AEO & Blaze. Plies held his ground, but Mike trying to be Akon on the hook just throws this song off. The beat is dope, though.. Lol, and this is only a demo.
Something about this song gets me. Yea it sounds low budget or soemthing but it has a nice vibe to it. The beat is up-tempo and Mike is ridin the beat. The singin is ok I guess cuz he's just feelin himself... but once he starts rhymin that's where it shines
damnnnnn man, Im sayin, put Akon on the hook instead of Mike Jones' annoying singing voice, keep the rapping the same, and with a couple of little other tweaks this song will be a hit! Plies tears it up and Mike has a pretty decent part when hes rapping. re-do it, then I will call it a banger/classic
This is straight up gabbage..i mean if i was an executive @ mj's record label..imma drop his ass off after listening 2 dis shit...cant believe i finished listening 2 d song-probably wanted to plies verse(verse was wack as well)
I like the beat. Production well done. Could've been used by some1 with a little more talent. Ummmm, Mike Jones, mocking Akon? Wtf is that? Not feelin that at all. And his first verse-still doing the thing where he repeats himself to fill a verse...wow...not impressive. Annoying. [[but it's a rough draft]]lol Now that he's used that excuse, whats next? And how long was Plies verse? Not long enough, unfinished possibly. [[yet again, "it's a rough draft" tho]] :/
PLEASE AKON DONT LET MIKE SING THE HOOK ON THE FINAL CUT, THATS ALL YOU...I LIKE THE SONG A LIL BUT IF AKON DOESE THE HOOK, THAT SHIT WOULD BANG (3.5 RATING)...ALREADY
Double U you right he seems Akon! Or better, he is desperately tryin' to copy him...with no results I guess! The beat ain't bad but he sucks! Ok for the beat and the music, please give this track to someone else and it'll become a hit!
i herd alot of his lyrics before on others music and why he trying to sound like akon i recently started feeling plies and he cant even save the track but plies does his thing here plies 3 stars mike jones who ? garbage
a yo z the same way you feel about t pains vocal box fading in the near future is the same way i feel about texas rap makes me sick to my stomach no talent just every one helps each other out ....
It depends on ur style of singin... didnt like Mike Jones singin at all... but Plies put a little umph in it with his voice... i wouldnt listen to it if i had a choice...
lol i like it...akon is way better and he shoulda done the song instead of mike jones but watever...im really feelin plies...its not as bad as u guys say...u guys think every song is shyt like come on eas up...this aint ur type of music i guess if all u guys say is "wat the fuck is this and they shit"...chill out wow
i like it honestly. and imma give mike the extra point for givin us the heads up that he cant sing. i wish other artists did that and the way he's sayin its a demo makes me think it might not make the album or that the song isnt finished. so keepin that in mind it still earned a 4
i AiN'T gONNA HATE..iTz SUMTHANg NEW 2 SEE MiKE JONES TRYiN' SUMTHANg DiFFERENT...gO AHEAd & gET'CHO SHiNE ON!!..LOL!DiSS WOULd HAVE 2 gROW ON MEEH dOE!
DjRoyale: "stroked it hard"? umm......what are you talking bout?. least mike gave a heads up bout bad singing. Max B shoulda did the same ruining hustler's pome.
At least he was honest ta start the song! The beat is hot! I feel like singin was a bad way to ride the track. Is it too late to resale this track to someone else Akon?
