Musiq Soulchild - Anything
Featuring: Swizz Beatz
Producer: Jerry ''Wonda'' Duplessis, co-prod. Arden Altino
Album: TheMagicTheMusic
Label: Atlantic Records
Though we all know, intellectually, that honesty and openness are key to healthy relationships, in practice we all-too-often find ourselves forcing others to guess what’s on our minds – if not actively trying to hide the truth. One fella who will never answer “Nothing” when asked what’s wrong (unless it really is nothing), Musiq Soulchild declares himself an open book on this newly-released single, assuring his girl “You can ask me Anything.” Jerry ‘‘Wonda’’ Duplessis handles production duties, blending slap bass and glossy synths into a bubbly electro-funk backdrop for the singer’s refreshingly mature sentiments. On the middle verse, Swizz Beatz grabs the mic to spit a slightly off-topic, but fittingly breezy 16, inviting a female to hop into his Aston Martin for a brisk drive followed by a little R&R on his boat. Does this blissfully head-noddable cut leave you craving more new music from Musiq? The neo-soul vet’s next project, TheMagicTheMusic has yet to receive a spot on Atlantic Records’ release schedule but, like the chick in question, you can trust the Booth to “tell you everything” as details surface.

This is a great look for both Musiq; a nice, upbeat, and radio-friendly record that could get some serious spins. Excellent production work by Jerry ''Wonda'' Duplessis (whose work with Wyclef speaks for itself). The only downside to this record, if you can deem it a "downside," is the unnecessary Swizzy bars in the middle of the song. I would have been fine with ad libs...

Classic Musiq, but I agree, lyrics are a bit weak. Production is on point.

Okay, now THIS is pretty dope. Except for the need for Swizzy to rap over the middle 16.
But his production is really catchy. I can imagine moderate radio success here. |

It's aight, but I miss the old soulfould Musiq Soulchild. I also dont think Swizz Beats is neccessary talkin on the track. He makes it sound corny. And I feel his production sounds like Ryan Leslie.

We all know Swizz didn’t need to be on this song. It would be a banger without him.

I say this without any hate, but I just don't understand why artists but Swizz on their hooks. Have you ever heard a Swizzy hook and thought, "Yes, this track is so much better with him on it"?
It's a nice track, and should get some folks dancing, but I just couldn't get into it as much as I had hoped. |

This single is hot a real club banger and radio single that will get some request. I love the production and Swizz is doing his thing on his verse. I also love the adlib at the end

I join the voices of the ppl when i say Swizz is not needed. Musiq had that 80's Micheal Jackson vibe going on.

The Keyboard in the track projects that old school flava. Great song for old school functions to blend with Maze, Luther, Montel, etc. Musiq vocals are always a pleasure.
