My surprise new fave song is - get this -
a Timbaland production.
Jennifer Hudson's Walk It Out. What lured me in was
the Chicago-shot video, which reminds me of
Janet Jackson in Poetic Justice. But then the track really earwormed: it has just enough old school vibes to keep me happy.
When Jennifer was on American Idol, I loved her so much, I called her Mrs. Sears. Clearly, I know my shit. So here it is, a great strutting song for summer in the city.
"You must have the right producer, with the know-how of putting tracks together on a good recording!"
