Throwback Track: "What You Got"

Check it everyone, I'm starting a new segment on the blog titled, "Throwback Tracks". Every now and then I'm gonna be bringing back some songs that we all used to jam to, or at least I used to. Music is such a beautiful thing and I admire all of the new stuff the artists are coming out with now days. At the same time I feel it's necessary to pay respect to the material from the past. I'm not gonna be going too far back and featuring tracks our parents listened to, but just some tracks that need to be played after a while. Back when we were all on Media Player 7.

(Akon and Colby O'Donis)

I don't wanna go too far back and bring out a track from Tupac or Jodeci or nothing, so I'm gonna take it back just a year, Febuary 2008. Although I feel this track was over-played and killed by all the radio stations, I think it's a straight classic. Also, for some reason it's been stuck in my head lately. The 19 year old Colby O'Donis shows how talented he is as he teams up with Akon to bring you "What You Got". The song is a typical R&B track and features some pretty sweet lyrics. I love when Akon comes thru and says, "Why you thinkin you the only dude? She off in the mall livin off to you. Lettin everybody know she got you, but now you feel like a fool." This song is about that girl that has everything she wants and needs, but always seeks more. It's never enough! Fellas, you know what I'm talkin about, be careful with that kind of girl. I'm sure you already have, but give it another listen.
