As a kid, I always found the “Eenie Meenie minie mo.” method of decision-making incredibly frustrating. I mean, it’s about as far from truly random as you can get, and if you make a miscalculation and get a result you don’t like, you can continue on with “My mother told me…” as if that was what you’d been planning to do all along! Now that I’ve gotten that piece of childhood baggage off my chest, I’m ready to talk about Sean Kingston‘s latest single, which finds the artist admonishing a girl who just can’t seem to make up her mind. Over Benny Blanco‘s uptempo synth boardwork, the perpetually lovelorn singer lets the female in question know exactly what he thinks of her wishy-washy ways. 16-year-old Canadian pop sensation Justin Bieber (who, full disclosure, I assumed to be a chick at first listen) hops on board to commiserate during the track’s middle portion. The record’s crown jewel, of course, is the chorus, which will worm its way into your head whether you like it or not – don’t say I didn’t warn you. Set to hit iTunes March 23, Eenie Meenie is currently just a promo single, but that may well change. Keep it locked for the latest!

This song would be a hit for Bieber but for Kingston it's just another step backward; Derulo and IYAZ both jumped ahead of him and stole his fanbase with JR Rotem's help

Get ready to hear this record on the radio the next 7 months. I am not joking. Bookmark this page and come back to reference my words in early September.

Sounds like an average black eyed peas song thats dominated the radio so Im sure this will fare well with the pop music crowd. Concept is kinda wack. Justin Bieber does his thing and is a good match for it

Never thought I'd see the day that Justin bieber was on DJ booth haha im crakin up. At least nathan didn't do the review because he got a fairly nice shot on him over on refined hype about his luda colab

This kid is sooo wack. All of his songs are so f'in corny! And 75% of his songs have the word girl in it. This definetly won't get any love at any of my local radio stations DJ Z. I can't believe weezy wants to do a calabo with this loser. SONGS CORNY POINT - .

It seems so obvious and cliche for me to not like this one, so before I hit play I was honestly hoping that I would love it, just so I wouldn't be so predictable.
Goddamnit. I can see this blowing up on 106 & Park, and I can see why people want to jump on the Kingston/Beiber bandwagon, but personally, you couldn't pay me to listen again. |

@Niko203 - You won't be able to find a Top 40 or CHR-Rhythmic station across this country that will turn this song away from their regular rotation. Not one. I never said "urban" radio...
Also, let me clarify - I don't like this song on a personal level. I would assume most of our readers already know this. DJ Booth on Twitter |

i literally burst out loud laughing when i saw justin biebers name on the new tracks page next to sean kingstons. this is one of those songs that you secretly put on your ipod under a different name and listen to when no one else is around. jkc summed it up pretty well i think:
"Derulo and IYAZ both jumped ahead of him and stole his fanbase with JR Rotem's help" thats exactly what has happened i think. i dont know whether to rate this as classic or garbage. classic i reckon, just to get the ratings up. i agree with Z, all the radio play for the next year!

I have to tell you, I listened to it the whole way through and gave the song a fair chance. But unlike Trey Songz's "LOL" it’s mindless fluff that actually does make me hit the stop button. Not catchy to me whatsoever. Song ain't a HIT, but it will be as in how crummy radio stations can make a song a hit, as it’s blur followers would just listen to anything, thinking it’s the best thing since sliced bread.

Like everybody else, when i saw Justin Bieber there i assumed this song would suck! but I agree with DJ Z its gona be a huge hit on the radio. Therefore i have to rate it properly, not my personal favourite but it will be stuck in all 16 year old girls heads for the coming months.

justin bieber is like 15, what do u expect him to sound like? u don't have 2 have a deep voice to be considered a good singer, he's got a sick voice for being so young... anyways look who he's makin music with (besides kingston), he's big and he's gonna be around for years so you might as well get used to him!! i'll def skip this one on the radio for the next few months tho lol

this song is like smoking or other drugs because the first few times you listen to it is okay but then you really get hooked on to it and you love it and can't get enough of it.

Sean Kingston Rocks... I am disappointed that Kingston does not have that much stuff out because I love his voice. Everyone always loves his stuff in the club. I really wish he was singing about other stuff in this song though
