They not only messed up Pretty Brown Eyes, but the messed up "Roni" from Bobby Brown in this song.

I was expecting worse than what i heard. It wasn't great, but I could hear it getting air play for them.

This is why so much contemporary music sucks. They took a beautiful song with sentiment and turned it into mindless superficial bullshit. Somebody please kill these little fuckers.
Does that little punk Spectacular think he can recover from that "grinding contest" fiasco so easily?

I think not.

It's Pretty Ricky ... did you honestly expect the heavens to open and God to comedown and slow dance with angels ...

I have had the (very) unfortunate pleasure of actually meeting and hanging out here in Las Vegas with one of them ... I have been trying to erase that memory for 3 years now ... duh
Whatever u heard about me is true, I change the rules and do what I wanna do; I'm in love with God, He's the only way; cause u and I know we gotta die someday; you think I'm crazy, ur probally right; but I'm gonna have fun every motherf***in' night!"

Wait Pretty Ricky are still allowed to make music??? But honestly this is one of those songs that after awhile i cant deal with the praise, its like Prince's "Adore", good songs, but lets not get carried away.

Once again never ever praised Cassie's music, i said she was just as good as Rihanna, thats not praise if you know what i think Rihanna. As for Amerie i praise her because its deserved, for her genre she is groundbreaking, she is doing shit that NO ONE in that genre is doing since Aaliyah died. And i wasnt knocking Mint Condition, i was saying lets cool down on its the greatest song in history, i like Mint Condition and they have tons of other better songs, as does Prince, and Adore is near the bottom of the list of songs of his i wanna hear at a show, its played, its good, but its played out already

Dude who said Breakin My Heart was the greatest song in history
especially mint history. I know a dozen MC songs i like better myself.
I think most people here or just disappointed that Pretty Ricky and Amerie(whom i do like)w Trey Songz jacked a good song. As far as Prince's Adore, to
each his own but i absolutely think it's one of his better songs and
definitely better than the bland Purple Rain ballad. I'm willing to listen
to Amerie's project but the first single does nothing for me nor the duet
with Trey Songz. I'm looking for something interesting from her like 1thing
and Talkin to Me.

Go read the lyrics to Mint's version, then go listen to this BULLSHIT and TRY to explain why people shouldn't view Pissy Ricky's version in complete and utter DISGUST.
My complaint isn't with the singing, ITS THE LYRICS. That shit is garbage. That's not an opinion; its a fact.

"Adore is near the bottom of the list of songs of his i wanna hear at a show, its played, its good, but its played out already"

Jesus take the wheel. Prince hardly plays Adore in concert and if you have heard him play it and saw the reaction from the audience I can't understand why you would think it was played out.

I have no comment on these bums.

Man i can't even tell you when the last time i've even switched over to
that garbage even just channel surfing. It's that bad. The only thing worse
was the Sunday morning 106 & gospel which i'm pretty sure they've already
pulled the plug on. I just wish some genie would come along and wrestle
BET from those devils and pull the plug on the original. lol

Ok well i have seen Prince 76 times in concert so i know what he plays, and SORRY but at this point i dont wanna hear freaking what he always does, and yes he has done Adore alot over the years. Reaction DONT MEAN SHIT from the crowd, yeah they wanna hear it, people go to an Elton John show and wanna hear "your song" for 4millionth time, and they rise and applaud, but dont tell me that song aint played out, a song being played out doesnt mean its bad, yet another term people never quite understand try reading into it, PURPLE RAIN is played out, and its far from bad.
