Jesse McCartney's new single, "Leavin'" (.wma / .rm), is out, and is produced by The-Dream and C. Tricky Stewart, AKA the niggas behind Rihanna's "Umbrella". I always hate things like this; dude, you weren't on this steeze back when your Pop crap was out a few years back. Now you are some proto-Timberlake, coastin' over the flavor of the month? GTFO, dog.
The deep part is, there's probably some truly gifted artist who could have murked this so much better than this paper thin punk, but with McCartney on Hollywood Records (read: Disney), the paper talks. Can't blame Dream & Tricky - the name of the game is dollas, and them niggas go for the publishing before the upfront payments, at least that's what Dream has said in the past. Good for them, but, IMO, bad for the scene. This cat not only had Dream & Tricky, but he is also calling on The Clutch (Omarion, Ciara), J.R. Rotem (Britney Spears, Sean Kingston), Sean Garrett (Usher, Mary J. Blige) and others. Pop/Urban? Fuck you, dog. We see your attempted permeations, and we don't like it.

Yo, I get where you're coming from in principle, except for one thing...the beat is garbage! Let him have it, it's some generic shit. Sounds like somebody forgot to hang up their phone.
yeah my boy Elucid says it sounds like "new elevator music". i'm more about the principle than anything, esp if this shit pops off.
Man people r always quick to hate on someone coming up in the world....think maybe u all r jealous? Yep sounds like a bunch of whining to me! Get over it! He did and u didnt! Now what!
"He did and u didnt! Now what!"
