Despite receiving positive reviews on his latest studio album, Adrenaline Rush 2007, rapper Twista has had to scratch his head in amazement at the major decline of his personal record sales. Taking into consideration a genre-wide slump (see 50 Cent), the Chicago-born MC is back at it with a brand new song to ring in 2008. Using the late Luther Vandross’ If Only For One Night (also the inspiration for Omarion and Bow Wow’s Let Me Hold You), Twista compares his love for the microphone to that of a women. Lyrically it doesn’t get much better, but the only way to really know that is by listening to For One Night at least five times. Despite rumors that he was dropped by Atlantic Records, Twista is still signed to the label and expects to hop back in the studio shortly.
I Love This...Twista hits n misses 4 me. n this here is one of the hits. A rapper w/ Luther vocals it gets no better. the lyrics r on point, the deliver is there no bad words for this 1.
im glad twista is bk.i thort i would neva hear of him again.da man is 1 of da greatist rapper alive.even redman will tell ya dat.ppl should stop h8in on him,he has bought alot in 2 hip hop.n wot can i say about 1 of da greatist singerz dat has eva lived.well iv just said it.dis is gonna b big i think.i like da slow bk ground wid da fast beat.dis is wot twista is best at.r.i.p vandross ull b missed by all.
Wow, I am speechless, I totally didn't see this coming from Twista. His signature fast-paced style and extremely successful pop tracks have overshadowed his underrated lyricism. This won't generate as much buzz for his next album as a club banger would, but Twista masters the vibe and creative subject matter on this record, let alone Luther on the vocals. Great track that we can look back on for Twista's career.
This is hot right here. I have to admit, that even I didn't listen to Twistas album even though I have it already! This is smooth right here, and it is good to hear luther once again and it was used correctly. Good job on this one Twista!
twista'a part is okay, dont really feel him to much because I like to sing the lyrics in my mind even if I am mixing a CD or something, trut be know he raps to fast!
<P><B><I>
but when I heard luthers voice, Man! Lufa was a beast when it came to loves songs.
Not bad, but I can't say it was the hottest. I guess I put twista on anotha level when i heard "po pimp", "so sexy" & "celebrity overnight". 3 big classics for him.
A classic that if not heard may be lost in the hip hop library for years to come, and we'll have to come back to it later and be like...dang! This shoulda been all over radio!
This is probably the best song i have heard so far this year.... When i listen to it with my headphones I get tengles through out my whole body. It is so creative and unique.. I do not even listen to Twista, but i am in love with this song
