Usually when I see the words “new Ray J” a Hip-Hop head like me might immediately put the song on the back burner, but hold your horses folks. While his fifth album, Raydiation, still doesn’t have a release date, single Bananas could just be the first hit of the album. Produced by Rico Love, who is responsible for DJBooth chart topper Motivation by Kelly Rowland, the track gives off a typical R&B/pop vibe that can easily comparable to the top tunes at radio right now. While some might laugh at the sped up chipmunk hook declaring that the sex is, indeed, “bananas,” there are some real high points to the record; Ray J’s singing is far for the course and Love compliments his own production well with a 16 bar verse at the tail song. Lets be honest, Bananas is one of those songs that I’m sure sounds better blasting at club speakers than your computer speakers. Even if it is closely reminiscent to Keri Hilson’s Turning Me On, go ahead and give Ray J a chance!

Dope track. Sounds a bit like 'Living Better Now' by Jamie Foxxx but I ain't mad.

Rico Love's beat is absolutely FIRE! His production work is really underrated sometimes above his stellar songwriting.
Yeah, this sounds like a Jamie Foxx kinda track. |

Well Ray J and Omarion have both come back with a bit different style than I'm used to hearing from them. Omarion's Luke Skywalker BS and now this from Ray, I like the direction they're going and I'm sure they'll be high on the charts soon. Looking forward to hearing more like this!

I fell in love with this when I heard it on the radio today, I'm surprised because I wasn't impressed on first listen.
