Now Im not a great lover of R&B, but this single isnt half bad. Ill be honest and say Ive never heard of Plies, and I think he sounds a lot like Busta Rhymes. Im not a complete noob in this genre though, as I havent lived under a rock for the past few years, so I have heard of Ne-Yo. As Plies is signed to Atlantic records, a label which has a pretty good reputation of producing platinum selling artists such as Dr.Dre and Snoop Dogg, I expected a good tune. And a good tune I got.

Musically Bust It Baby isnt great as they use the standard R&B backing track as all other R&B artists do, but the name drop of Ne-Yo in Bust It Baby is a great selling point. Ne-Yo does too much in this song to just be featured as he sings every chorus and one of the verses! Plies raps all but one of the verses and says Bust it in the most annoying tone possible in the intro and chorus.

Bust It Baby Part 2 has great potential to sell well as its a decent track. It has also been nominated in the Best Rap/R&B Collaboration category at the Ozone awards, so its worth checking Bust It Baby Part 2 out if you like R&B.

This track did nothing for me :-( . The only cool part is the Janet Jackson sample :-P

Just took a listen via youtube and it's very flat. Like they've taken all the layers of influence that have gone into modern day RnB and squashed them down, like a big Scooby Doo sandwich.
It's pleasant enough, and I imagine it gets/will get a ton of radio play, but it's nothing special and doesn't cause my to tell all my friends about it.
