New Song: Mario – ‘Somebody Else (ft. Nicki Minaj)’

Published: Sunday 19th May 2013 by Sam

As earlier reported, Mario is back and has enlisted Nicki Minaj for his hotly anticipated new single.

Christened ‘Somebody Else’, the Polow Da Don produced cut premiered literally moments ago. That Grape Juice, as ever, have you covered.

Does the track pack a potent enough punch to re-embed Mario in the minds of the masses? You decide after the jump…

Honestly? Not the track we expected nor one that screams “comeback”. Yet, the mid-tempo tastes like a grower and could plausibly rouse us down the line after meatier chew.

    Song is s***. But Nicki slayed her verse though.

    • ShadeNOShade May 19, 2013

      I Just Want To Say THANK YOU For Giving Credit Where It’s Due & Not Just Hate On Nicki Because Mariah & Her Have Problems.

      • SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) May 19, 2013

        But I use to be one of Nicki’s biggest fans though…

    • Nicken May 20, 2013

    Booooooooo nicki why did you do a song with this in the closet ass flop.

  3. HoneychildPlease May 19, 2013

    EWWW

  4. Prince May 19, 2013

    at the begin sounds like usher

  5. ENOUGH ONIKA (KMART QUEEN) May 19, 2013

    Mario? Are you serious? Do you want to be successful or not because this seems like you’re playing an awful joke on your own career. This is NOT it. And to add salt to injury, you got Onika on the track (can’t get worse than that). Mario I’m a fan, GO was criminally underrated, please don’t short change yourself with this kinda mess. If Onika is willing to do it, that’s a sign right that to run the other way…

  6. Britney Stan May 19, 2013

    Nicki why are you working with such a lessor? smh you worked with Madonna now your settling for far below basic artist like this….get it together & fast before you end like Ciara.

  7. SHESDUMB THE LEGEND May 19, 2013

    THEY WANNA RELEASE THE SONG SINCE NICKI MINAJ BENT HER STIFF FAKE ASS OVER ON THE BILLBOARD AWARDS, SO THE SONG COULD GET HYPE OFF OF THAT.

    #FAIL

    • opd2 May 19, 2013

      Dog sh-t the song was leak for a min now grape and rap just got a hold of it,the song is to be release tuesday..man you and your hating sh-t is getting tired.

  8. My Forehead Tho May 19, 2013

    ‘Somebody Else’ basically sums up this whole thing up. It’s somebody else’s time to shine. Going back to listing to Mario will be like going back to spinner rims and razor flip phones.

    -__-

  9. FAF May 19, 2013

    TGJ summed up.. *insert comment about Ciara or Nicki Minaj*

    I’m glad to see artists who WRITE getting so much shine on this blog 😀

  10. Super Cisus May 19, 2013

    Lmao this s*** is horrible and it won’t chart anywhere. Ain’t nobody checking for Mario

    • Beylieve In Luv May 19, 2013

      A Ci-Error stan talking about charting. Ironic…

  11. eric May 19, 2013

    Possibly the worst song I’ve ever heard from Mario. He’s got some unofficial releases that are so much better than this. He should be embarrassed about “Somebody Else”.

  12. King B>Rihanna May 19, 2013

    is Nicki verse good because i stop it like after a minute.

    • sammi May 20, 2013

      So did I lol. Mario’s been around a long time. I feel bad for laughing. Let me love you was my s*** when it dropped.

  13. Stophatin May 19, 2013

    This song is hot. Nicki’s has a solid verse. Her pen game is awesome here.

  14. Heauxsitdown May 19, 2013

    This aint it. Mario hasn’t had a good song in God knows when. The last song of his that I liked was “Music For Love” and that came out in what? 07? 08? Back to the drawing board you go Mario…

  15. Beylieve In Luv May 19, 2013

    Me no like

  16. LBJ May 19, 2013

  17. HOWYOULIKEIT May 19, 2013

    YAWN YAWN YAWN

  18. DeezNuts May 19, 2013

    *BANGS ON TABLE*

    VERSE AFTER VERSE AFTER VERSE! Nicki Minaj is UNTOUCHABLE when it comes to features! She elevates the songs to a whole new level! REIGN NICKI! REIGN!!!

    *sips spiced apple cider and re-watches the Billboard performace!*

    • SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) May 19, 2013

      Homegirl can move her hips though. She did her thing in that performance. #NoLies

      • DeezNuts May 19, 2013

        hmmm I respect you for saying that.

        I always thought you were one of those people who hated Nicki no matter what she does.

      • SLAYRIAH CAREY (TOUR DE FORCE) May 19, 2013

        I’m not like that hun. Believe it or not, I use to be a Nicki fan in the 2010/2011 times but she just had to try it. Smh

    • msteefromdc May 20, 2013

      if she slays her features..please explain the songs with mariah carey, mary j blige, keisha cole, madonna, mario, justin beiber, etc…

      she’s garbage. her career is holding on by a strand

  19. Rosie May 19, 2013

    Lesser helping other lesser.
    This will flop harder that Micki’s the Re-Tard’s sales.

    • DeezNuts May 19, 2013

      *slaps forehead*

      I dont even believe you listened to the song. I think you came here just to hate. Its sad tbh. Have a nice day! 🙂

    • Disco stick May 19, 2013

      I saw no mention of Lana sis….

      • Rosie May 19, 2013

        Of course, cause this isn’t about Lana. It’s about flop ass Monki and her inablity to support a song, put on a performance without twerking her fake, silicone ass, sell a decent amount of albums, or gross high enough on tour.

    • opd2 May 20, 2013

      ROSIE it is so nice that every fan base on here,have something in common a mutual hate for you…i never believe the day would come were we all agreed on something.

  20. ShadeNOShade May 19, 2013

    I Think Nicki Was Just Helping Mario Out There’s NOTHING Wrong With That. RELAX.
    But Nicki’s Verse Is EVERYTHING. WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW

  21. nicko May 19, 2013

    so, Nicki just slayed @ the BB awards !! she won three awards + had the best performance of the night and NOW she’s slaying me AGAIN ? :’) Thanks Nicki, I LOVE YOU!!

  22. Hot Shxt May 19, 2013

    This is a DEMO!!!!

  23. Lovebird May 19, 2013

    I like it, it’s very different.

  24. Daniel May 19, 2013

    This song is okay.. Killa would have been a better choice for a single though.

  25. DOSSOME May 20, 2013

    Not balanced…Nicki gave 100% and Mario couldn’t reciprocate..Certainly not the best i’ve heard from Mario

  26. ,. May 20, 2013

    i like the over all song,love nicki verse,Mario should perform this on some shows and get the buzz up for it because it,s also a grower,i think if it gets the push it will do well.

  27. Unknown May 20, 2013

    The song is okay. I heard better from Mario not too long ago. Nicki Minaj gave 100%.

  28. NIcki Needs To Go May 20, 2013

    This is going to flop like all they other features Nicki been on. ie.(Mariah Carey, Trey Songs,and Future.)

    • ShadeNOShade May 20, 2013

      Ummmm
      Bottoms Up Didn’t Flop Bew. 3× Platinum. #FACTS

  29. Daydreamin May 20, 2013

    Nicki’s part was good but that’s about it

  30. Fan May 20, 2013

    Y’all are exaggerating. The song is great. Mario always delivers the vocals. Would have done without the autotune though. So not necessary these days.

  31. navy nick May 20, 2013

    i like it all., i love mario man

  32. JOANSIEU33 May 20, 2013

  33. otis May 20, 2013

    this is hot!!! Somebody don’t understand R&B!

  34. Nicki Manja is a devil worshiper! May 20, 2013

    Don’t listen to her devil worshiping lyrics she needs God so bad in her life her lyrics prove it!

  35. A Hit May 20, 2013

    THIS IS A F*****’ A HIT, U H*** MAD IT’S NOT POP….

  36. JP May 20, 2013

    Um, I actually like this a lot and it’s not even HQ. Some of the posters above me are def trippin. Mario can do no wrong in my book with his fine self.

  37. SLAYLENA GOMEZ May 20, 2013

    Who is Mario? A new artist?

  38. KEY May 20, 2013

    It’s alright.

  39. Mr. C May 20, 2013

    Mark my words…this is a grower. This will be a hit!! Can’t get that hook outta my head.

  40. SeeSeeCC May 20, 2013

    I like it, but it could’ve been done way better on Mario’s part. The production is OKAY, but it’s not giving me life. I love Mario’s music, but this shouldn’t be a single. Nicki’s verse was good…

    I wish Mario well!
