New Song: K. Michelle – ‘Not A Little Bit’

Published: Thursday 21st Jan 2016 by Sam

New single alert!

K. Michelle has drawn the curtains back on ‘Not A Little Bit’ – the lead release from her third studio album.

The jam lands just days ahead of the season 2 premiere of her hit VH1 series ‘K. Michelle: My Life.’

Previous albums ‘Rebellious Soul’ and ‘Anybody Wanna Buy A Heart?’ helped the singer cement herself as a serious artist. Will ‘Not A Little’ further extend that narrative?

Listen below and let us know…

Strong hook, relatable lyrics, potent production, and a powerful vocal performance, Ms. Michelle may have bagged herself an Urban hit with this one.

A mainstream crossover seems plausible too; the track is evocative of the R&B piano-ballad’s popularised in the mid-00’s by the likes of ‘We Belong Together’ and ‘Be Without You’ – both of which managed to breakthrough on multiple formats.

Kudos, K!

    Love it. Promising.

    • maurice January 21, 2016

      that cover is everything.
      ‘Hard to Do’ still one my favorite gems from her.

      • ???Chile, leave my weave at the door and don’t steal it like those broke ass barb stans??? January 21, 2016

        Yes, hun! “Hard to Do” says lives effortlessly, especially the music video.

    • You tried January 22, 2016

      This girl is a musical genius! The best part is she is the composer behind most of her dope a$$ music! I love her music! Keep it coming

  2. al January 21, 2016

    First track of mkarts i like ?

  3. #JACKIE January 21, 2016

    K. Michelle SLAYS musically. Her last album was everything honey. I haven’t listened yet but I know she won’t disappoint!!!

    • al January 21, 2016

      Her last LP was hot but u not heard it? U high child?

      • #JACKIE January 21, 2016

        I haven’t heard THIS SONG yet. Poof vamoose son of a b****.

  4. FC/JC January 21, 2016

    The nipple is tasteless for such a song as this, Is it really necessary?
    With that said, This is actually the first K Michelle song that I’ve heard and liked.

  5. Casual January 21, 2016

    It’s alright, but I wish she had come back harder. This might go r&b top 10, but I don’t see it being bigger than that.

  6. ?Queen Molly? January 21, 2016

    I love that single cover and omg the song is actually good. I never used her until now I guess.

  7. LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES January 21, 2016

    Why does this stank pumpum bish always sound like she is singing through a wall of auto-tune? Her vocals are always overproduced. When you hear her sing this live you’ll understand why. She’s always flat and sharp. Tamar Braxton slays this non-singing donkey booty thot.

    • ?Queen Molly? January 21, 2016

      Atleast she’s releasing albums this decade sis and isn’t stuck releasing on paypal like others

      • LIL’ KIM BIRTHED YO FAVES January 21, 2016

        Still with that boring PayPal shade. As if Lil’ Kim didn’t create the blueprint for all these ungrateful female rappers and R&B singing h0es. Without Kim, most of these females would have no identity. Phuckk outta here! Lil’ Kim is the phucckking Queen! Y’all hating azzzz, stink pumpum bishes can stay phuckkking mad!

      • Nicki Minaj thee ONLY QB January 22, 2016

        Who do you stan for?

      • Nicki Minaj thee ONLY QB January 22, 2016

        Molly who do you stan for?

  8. YoursTruly January 21, 2016

    Yes! Slay us queen..

  9. #TeamTinashe Stan (“Joyride” Coming Out Soon) January 21, 2016

    Runs to iTunes……..!
    Girl, gave me 2006 vibes with this song. Her vocals were laid with all hands on deck with that piano playing in the background. The end with the screaming or whatever it was, was very necessary! I enjoyed the song in it’s whole entirety.

    The song very much reminds me of another song that I am trying so hard to remember right now, but while the song isn’t very “Original” it does sound great.
    8.5/10 🙂

    • Niriden January 21, 2016

      Tamar Braxton let me know …that’s what I think it sounds like. It’s her first song I actually like. Serving me raw vocals

    • Mr. Coyados January 22, 2016

      I think that you mean “The one” by J. Lo, or “You are everything” by The Stylistics wich is the song she sampled for that one. (:

    • Nechelle35 March 30, 2016

      I think it sounds like the intro to “All My Life” by K. Ci and Jojo.

  10. Theman January 21, 2016

    The song is good. Her voice sounds stripped! It does sound similar to WBT/Be Without You.

  11. RICHIE_RICH January 21, 2016

    This song is cute!!!!! The cover ART is everything baby

  12. Bb8345 January 21, 2016

    The song is good. I just wish the it had a different chorus but it’s a good song.

  13. Gee January 21, 2016

    Good job K if promoted properly I see this being her biggest hit yet.

  14. #JACKIE January 21, 2016

    This song is nice, but her past first singles slay it.
    VSOP >
    Love Em All >

    • Lake Erie January 22, 2016

      I loved VSOP on first listen! It was pure good OLD R&B. “Love em all” didn’t win me over until I heard it on the radio in the car, then I basically listened to the whole song and was like, dang, I like this. Now this song? I actually like it on first listen, in the beginning of the song, I was nervous, but by the end. It won me. But honestly wouldn’t expected it to had been her first single, I was looking for something more up beat since “love em all” was a ballet.

  15. Jec2 January 21, 2016

    Love k Michelle. This is a no. It sounds stale. Without her name (or autotune) this song wouldn’t get any traction.

  16. KillaB January 21, 2016

    Sounds unfinished and I fucc with K.Michelle. I need some Hard to Do, Ride Out, and Hate on Her

  17. Lake Erie January 22, 2016

    Wow, this song shocked me. Just off listening to the verse I was like “aaaw man, come on now K”. But then the course kicked in and WOW. I really like it. Very detailed, hitting a high note on the bridge (which nobody seems to do anymore), sounds like nothing on radio right now. I like it! I hope her team pushes it because her last album, which is the first of hers I bought was WELL worth it! And based off her IG teasers, she’s innovating yet again on this one too. So bring it on K! Im def here for it.

    • credits January 22, 2016

      Hitting a high note on the bridge, you think nobody does that anymore? Go listen to Monica’s “anchor.”

  18. Kayla C January 22, 2016

    LOVE IT! Yes!

  19. credits January 22, 2016

    -Torn in between the two, cause I really wanna be with you but something’s telling me I should leave you alone. -Letoya luckett

    We’ve heard this song before. But that picture on the cover is hot!

    • Frmluz January 22, 2016

      That’s it. It sounds very similar.

    • Royalkev January 22, 2016

      Yes!!!! Thank you, I was racking my brain trying to figure out what it sounded like.

    • mini January 22, 2016

      It’s because they both sample the same song.

    • What now January 22, 2016

      I kept thinking that in my head. I was like is it the same sample or something?

  20. Oscar January 22, 2016

    this is gonna flop hard. her album will do Ciara numbers

    • Truth January 22, 2016

      Didnt Taymuppet album only sold 38k. Lmao!

  21. Keegan Parker January 22, 2016

    Huge K Fan but I am not blown away she is Queen and will always be but I am gonna need a second single but the voice is bomb

  22. frank January 22, 2016

    I love it.

  23. Royalkev January 22, 2016

    Seem like we’re getting a softer side of K. I think she’s changing gradually as an artist. This one was a good effort.

  24. Whet January 22, 2016

    This song is greatness. KMichelle has really established as a solid R&B artist regardless of whether you like it. She’s hella talented and speaks relatable topics. Love this song.

  25. Cam January 22, 2016

    The song is good but it sounds like Tamia I can’t get enough of you

  26. BCinKS January 22, 2016

    FINALLY! She has a good voice, but all she used to do was scream the entire song in her full chest voice. The difference in tones and keys in this song are nice. She did great building the song up to the climax. First song of hers I’m going to support. She has a hit right here.

  27. stan January 22, 2016

    the chorus is reminiscent of “you are everything”/”torn”

    it’s not bad, i guess. i just wish they use less autotune… it’s really distracting, especially when you’re listening with a pair of good headphones.

  28. What now January 22, 2016

    Come thru K. She’s like a secret fav of mine. She’s too rachet to claim, at the same time, not rachet enough to dislike. KIIII

  29. Antisatanicthealbum January 23, 2016

    Sucks this song won’t be nominated for a Grammy because it is sampling other songs

    • SO FRESH January 25, 2016

      THEY JUST CHANGED THAT RULE THE YEAR AFTER ‘BODY PARTY’ WASN’T NOMINATED.

  30. RihannaNavy January 24, 2016

    K. did this song most definitely , whether it’s sample or not … she’s one star from love & hip hop went big , she was big b4 the TV show came about her music been popping. The show made it better & extended… I’m happy for her a success has done 4 her I’ll always support her.

  31. RihannaNavyStan February 1, 2016

    it sounds like Toni Braxton Hands Tied with a mix of Why Dont You Love Song by Toni Braxton lol.

  32. Nechelle35 March 30, 2016

    I think it sounds like the intro to “All My Life” by K. Ci and Jojo…smart choice and as far as this auto tune who give a crap. We can’t all do that.

    The girl’s pipes are rediculous! She slayed this song. I wasn’t a fan before…but K. Michelle you got me girl….i am a woman of a particular age and i rarely listen to this type music so WOW!! SMOKING HOT!!!

    Ignore the negative stuff and do your thing. You are going to be the voice that sneak up on the world with a vengeance. Not saying you’re not great now…but there is another level. Hope you get to read this…btw need an assistant? Holla. ?
