This past July, somebody broke into R&B/pop singer Qwote‘s studio and leaked his newest single, 808. Turning the negative into a positive, Qwote has decided to release the song officially (and probably also purchase a pocket-size flash drive). Lamenting over a lost love, the Miami native decides to get back his lady by having the DJ use an 808 beat on his song. Producer J.R. Rotem, who’s responsible for Slip-N-Slide‘s two biggest singles of ‘08 (The Boss and Bust It Baby Pt. 2), puts another hit together with a mix of high-, mid-, and low-tempos, all at once. Topped off with an 8-bar verse by label mate (and fellow heartthrob) Plies, expect that 808 to keep bumping. Qwote’s debut album, Qwote Un Qwote, is set for release in February of ‘09.
Wowww, very surprised. This is a great song! Qwote does his thing on here, he is going to be a star. "I've really been feelin the R&B on here lately, its a good look. Smooth laced track that still bumps that 808. Plies fits on here pretty good surprisingly, still would have liked to seen Luda instead (ie the Alicia Keys remix and the new Monica song). Still a for sure banger, this one is a sleeper...
Qwote is a beast. His voice reminds me of R.Kelly for some reason. J.R's beat is pretty smooth. Plies isn't my favorite rapper, but he does pretty well on R&B features. I'll throw this in rotation.
plies voice and garbageass flow took away 2 stars lol,qwote's voice is kinda funny, kinda similar to akon's voice and u can hear the autotune on his vocals just not in a high frequency like everyone else uses. this track is smooth tho
Thanks for handling the issues, fellas. This song has SICK production from Rotem. Very impressed there. I think he might have hit #3 for SNS on his hands. I am not sure where all the lower ratings are coming from... think CLUB people.
I like this song a lot and Qwote is pretty good. His voice is smooth and nice for a R&b track. I like the idea of Plies rappin for a little bit but not a whole long verse. He does good on R&B features like this but his regular rap songs are garbagge. I put this in rotation and this could get major radioplay.
Wonderful song. I like it but I'm a little edgy on the beat. It gets annoying when the sirens come on, or whatever you call them. But over all good song.
I really like Qwote as artist...I'm looking forward to hearing new material from him! This song pleased me, it's chillin and sweet, I love his voice! Banger!
