New Song: Ludacris & Kelly Rowland – ‘Representing’

Published: Friday 31st Aug 2012 by Sam

Ludacris is back and has tapped Kelly Rowland for his latest single, ‘Representing’.

The gritty mid-tempo sees the Atlanta MC and ‘Motivation’ maven trade verses on a subject matter that Luda is all too familiar with.

Take a listen to the radio rip, which premiered on V-103, LP after the jump…

Not bad.

In being trademark Luda from the production to his flow, the track auto-ranks high on our tally. Yet, while on a paper a good look for Ms. Kelly, the lyrical content and catchiness of the hook (or lack-thereof) negates what -again, on paper – could have been a stellar collaboration.

‘Representing’ is lifted from Ludacris’ upcoming LP ‘Ludaversal’, which arrives in the Fall.

    She needed for this to be a crossover hit not just something that COULD possibly smash on Urban radio.

    Its only OK in my opinion. Kinda boring TBH.

    I’m feeling it! I think she should’ve got more than just a chorus tho! Good look Kells!

    Although she’s gonna play out the slow s*** songs ie motivation, ice, and now this… She needs to switch it up some eventually…

    Kelly’s REALLY gone off into s**-soaked city hasn’t she. I’m glad she feels that at this delicate stage in her career she can Adina Howard her way into the charts and create nothing worth investing in. I’m holding all my views in pocket until this new “hotly” anticipated album drops THEN we’ll see just how much Kelly’s grown since her last commercial outing…if “Puddle of Water” feat. Lil Rain is anything to go by I WON’T be buying her new “Motown-influenced” album.
