Last week, when Plies joined me inside the DJBooth for an exclusive interview, he offered the following insight on his forthcoming new album, Da Realist: “I’m givin’ you something that helps you in the midst of your troubles and your pain.”  Records like Family Straight and Second Chance are prime examples of the Florida native’s ability to connect with listeners by delving deeply into the daily life of your average Joe.  When an artist (along with their label A&R) compiles an album, however, it also needs to include work that appeals to radio, the clubs, and, most importantly, music-purchasing females.  Plies follows this plan to a tee on the fourth feature from his new album, Street Light, which features the crooning of singer/songwriter Sean Garrett and production work from Midnight Black.

This song first appeared on the Rap Chart on December 1, 2008

Even though I agree with everybody that Plies definition of himself as real is false, I have always loved his stuff. I also agree that he isn't the lyrical master of our time, but I always believed that he knew how to make a hit, and from what I heard so far off his new album, it will be much better than his last two. Also, the production on this song is great.

Plies is really wearing off on me. I know 100% what to expect from him from now on:

-Catchy hook
-Radio friendly
-Average lyrics
-Guest feature

Some may argue with me why this is a bad thing. Well, it's not necessarilly a bad thing. If Plies has no problem staying in that lower-level rapper status but making money, then he's got it mastered. However, he will never be one of the greats with this repeated formula.

You forgot one thing Cb....a female subject matter. Add that to your list.

Not really a Plies fan and this isn't helping the cause. I'm sure it will get radio play and many females with dig it...but that's about it. Plies knows his fan base and he continues to market to them and get money. I can be mad at him for that. This just isn't MY cup of tea.

all his songs are the same. and how many CD's will he have in his career with the word "real" in it?? i dont know.. hey he has a song called all black. there's not a female subject matter, no guest feature, little to no good lyrics, but it has a catchy hook. and i like it lol. this is.
just the same old thing.

cb & hannah, i usually agree with what you two say as u are two of the more respected posters here, but i completly disagree with what you rated this, the production is nice & Garretts hook is good. The lyrics aint the best but their still alright & that is what i have come to expect from Plies

Aussie, you hit it on the head - this is what we have come to expect from Plies. Not my style, but you're not alone with your opinions as Plies continues to get money.

"I'll never buy a Phantom, 28's can't fit." - what happened to that guy? In rotation cuz everything Plies is comin' out with lately is all over the radio, and like MH said, can't hate on him for gettin' money!

i didnt even listen to tha hole song just the first couple seconds of it and it was wack, he talk about the same stuff its nothing new, plies maybe u should try to switch ya rap style up, and switch up that lyrical ability and since you wanna talk about real, y dont you talk about stuff thats going on in the "real" world right now, im tired of hearin tha same old bullshit from ya man, step it up..

To some of the guys above, it is not the fact I'm a female for liking this song. I do and always will love Plies. Ok, this is not my favorite from Plies actually it is probably my least Sean Garrett messes it up for me. Plies is real and knows how to make a hit. You have to applaud him for it. This is most likely my least favorite album from Plies he really needs to go back and show people the Definition of Real.

The hook is only mediocre to me and the production was only decent also. Plies does what he does, typical, but the track to me wasn't that hot. Garrett's constant "yeeeaaa" was really annoying in the hook and the production doesn't do anything for me. Garrett did have a nice bridge, but other than that this is just average.
