MOG

I was pretty psyched to find out there was a remix single to R. Kelly's "Same Girl" out. I mean, the original was classic with a brilliant video, and R. Kelly's remixes are usually better than their predecessors. This time, however, the magic just isn't there. First off, despite the fact that Kells and Usher found out they were dating the same girl in the original, they in fact bonded over it buddy comedy style, eventually hatching a revenge plan together. T-Pain, on the otherhand, sounds downright depressed, almost homicidal.

First T-Pain comes on like he's been overhearing the conversation and says that the other guys don't know him, which can't be true because he and R were just clubbing together in the "I'm a Flirt (Remix)" video. Then he asks if she has a crib by the waffle house, which leads me to wonder if it isn't possible that there is more than one "waffle house"? Then he asks R if she was doing that thing "with her mouth." R says yes. Then T-Pain asks, "Best sex in your life?" When R says yes, T-Pain concludes this must be his wife. So, let's recap - because this woman lives by the waffle house (the only one!), does something with her mouth (we'll assume it's sexual), and is a dynamite sexual partner, then she must be T-Pain's wife. His wife, I should add, that he does not live with. This is dangerous territory for anyone to be stepping because we all know that the "best sex" for R. Kelly seems to be.

This remix sucks and I am going to place the blame on T-Pain for this one. It was somewhat believable that Kells and Usher could be dating the same girl, but T-Pain as well? Besides, T-Pain's sequel totally breaks continuity with the original and sucks all the fun out of it. And the girls still twins? Triplets? I give credit to Kells for trying to save the rest of the remix, but it just isn't happening with this one. Should've left it how it was or just done a remake, if you ask me.
