Ne-Yo - One in a Million (Remix)
Artist: Ne-Yo
Producer: Chuck Harmony
Album: Libra Scale
Label: Motown Records
There are over six billion people on the planet, and approximately three billion of them are women. So when a r&b singer softly croons that his lady is One in a Million, if you do your math he’s really saying there are 3,000 women out there exactly like her. And now that I’ve managed to suck all the romance out of the room – a new remix from Ne-Yo! Joining Mr. Yo over Chuck Harmony’s percussively centered yet softly winding beat are two New York City staples; Fabolous, who contributes a remarkably punchline-light verse for the usually comically-oriented emcee, and Jadakiss, whose raspy voice frankly feels like a bit of an odd fit. But with Ne-Yo’s always impeccable voice giving the song a sense of cohesion, I’m sure more than a few folks will prefer it to the original. If you’re looking for a soundtrack to let that special someone know they’re one in a billion (far more impressive) this holiday season, might I suggest picking up a copy of Ne-Yo’s new album Libra Scale, available now?

FAB is a monster....
Not a jada fan so ill just stop there Overall not really a remix since the beat is kept the same and neyo doesn't add anything new either but good verse from Fabulous nonetheless.... |

The original was one of my favorites from the album. Fabolous always does nicely on R&B tracks and this is no exception. Good feature by him. Production was always sick. Jadakiss Rocked it! BANGER!

Jadakiss was just creepy. Fab was nice. The no-punch-line look is equally good for him. I guess what I'm saying is Fabolous is awesome however he raps. I just bought Real Talk and Ghetto Fabolous on Amazon yesterday.
All things considered, I probably like the original better as well. |

I have not listened to the original version, so this track to me stands on its own mcerits and nothing else. Ne-Yo's hook is the best part of the track. Loso's verse was average for him at best, and Jadakiss seemed misplaced here.

Fabolous KILLED it, added a little flavor to the bland-ish original. I like it.

Im suprised by the low ratings... this is a dope remix... The original was good but this just made it better.. Fabo killed it, what else is new...lol. And Jada was a good fit for this... he gave a good addition to this. This is a banger for sure.

Fab was an excellent choice for the guest feature, but I am not feeling Jada. I think Styles or Sheek would have been a better look. Not that it matters much, haha.

Fab works well, Jada doesn't. In my mind this is still only an average track by Ne-Yo's standards

Fabolous blended into the song fine, but it was nothing special. Jadakiss... OMG Jadakiss, was that the sh**test editing you've ever heard or what!?!? I think went up to whoever recorded that rubbish rhyme and said "Let me rap over the intro and we'll just cut it randomly into song"?
If 1 star won't tell you enough then let me sing it to you in the fashion of this hook... *singing* 'His verse was just-so-un-pro-fe-sio-nal, It Was/ Jada it's the worst I ever heard (worst i ever heard)/ Now you've got me stirred/You can much better, yes you can much better than this...' |
