USED TO BE MY GIRL - BRIAN MCKNIGHT
Brian McKnight has long straddled the line between the elegant date that you introduce to your mama versus hot, mutual sexual being. He delivers on the latter persona on “Used to Be My Girl,” the lead single from upcoming full-length “Ten.” The slinky steamer — actually a song of regret over the lady who “used to wiggle her hips for me/used to lick her lips for me” — features some intriguing junglelike production elements and an unexpected background falsetto vocal: nice work. The overall vibe is youthful and coy; sounds like an R&B smash that will keep McKnight wooing the younger generation. Billboard
