This is featuring Rihanna on the album, but the original version was Kardi feat. The Pussycat Dolls...
They sound good on the hook
OMG! This DOES use the sample as the chorus! LMAO! The beat is hot, but the chorus makes it soo cheezy.

What the heck is up with Rihanna on all these annoying samples of famous songs?

The synergy shows. Another surefire single comes from an unexpected source: a 40-year-old Jamaican jingle that was remade by pop act Blondie in 1980. "'The Tide is High'" is an idea that I lived with for a few years, "Kardi recalls. "I wanted to deliver a single that you could play in the dirtiest dancehall club in a raw corner of Jamaica as well as a Hollywood socialite hangout. That's what "The Tide is High" is, something people can relate to for a lot of different reasons." Hmmm, one such reason? The knee-buckling, pulse-quickening hook sung by Caribbean queen Rihanna.

This is the new single.
Debuts at #41 on the Canadian Hot 100, and it's credited as Kardinal Offishall featuring Rihanna or Nicole Scherzinger. LOL

They'd better go with Rihanna. Nicole Scherzinger will obviously curse it for flopness.

Yea this is an excellent follow-up choice to Dangerous, especially for Pop. Rihanna is a huge name, the hook is very friendly and it has that nostalgia factor as well with the sample.

Apparently the official single version now features Keri Hilson in place of Nicole or Rihanna. WTF.

Interesting, but...Rihanna is a bigger name right now. and keeping Rihanna on it made sense, since there is that connection (they have worked together before) and the Caribbean flava. Shouldnt this thread be in the Urban forum?

Gil Green is directing the video. And yeah, Keri is on the single version.

This is kind of annoying. I don't hate it but I liked "Gimme Some" a lot more.
