Although it’s grown on me in recent years, you can tell the label was trying to force something with this one. Unfortunately, “Radio” is the only correct choice. “Love” is the definitive Musiq Soulchild song, his first top 5 R&B single and always will be tied to his rise to success. “Halfcrazy” is definitely dope but I’ll go with “Love.” Yeah I know I just said that I quickly grew tired of this song (blame radio) but that doesn’t mean it’s not great. Definitely not your traditional love story. Going to go with “Halfcrazy.” I just remember hearing that song and remembering it sounding like nothing else at the time, and then hearing the lyrics which also told a story you don’t often hear in songs. This is probably the toughest question on this list. 3 that finally convinced me to check out Musiq’s debut – a decision I’ll never regret.

I liked “Love” more but radio quickly ran it into the ground and I soured on it. I remember my friends being obsessed with “Just Friends (Sunny)” during my last semester of college (yeah, I’m that old). But “Girl Next Door” was the one that really made me feel he was going to take this neo-soul genre and evolve it to a whole nother place fused with hip hop and traditional R&B. What’s the first song that made you a Musiq fan?īelieve it or not I wasn’t a huge fan of his first two singles “Just Friends (Sunny)” or “Love” in the moment.

I do agree with you, though, even Musiq’s “bad” stuff is typically better than his peers, and that goes for OnMyRadio – there are plenty of good songs here, it’s just not as consistent as his better offerings. You trying to run for office, playa? Well, couldn’t be worse that who we’ve already got.
