Robin Thicke is an AWESOME artist, but off of first listen I think this song needs another downmix if he's going to use Rakim's Mahogany beat. His voice is not really heard over the hard beats. However I can see this being a club banger, because it has the classic Rakim beat and feel to it. On a scale from 1-5, I'll give it a 3.
I'm really diggin this. I agree w/you Candice about wanting to hear his voice instead of the bangging beat, but that's MAHOGANY!!! Rakim is the man, Mahogany is a Classic, and this is a good remake to a classic.
This is not a bad remake to a classic. I LOVE RAKIM'S MAHOGANY. I give this song a 3.5 on a scale of 1-5. Although I can see the ladies loving it and giving it 4 or a 5 on that same scale.
