Have any of you seen Kanye's new viedo, Gold Digger? Love it! Love the song too. Jamie Foxx sounds so much like Ray Charles. If you havent heard the song, check it out.

The first time I heard it I didn't like it that much.
But now I love it.
I like when Jamie Foxx sings.

The song is not that new. But I still love it. The video is amazing. The song makes me just want to dance everytime I hear it. And yes I agree Jamie does sound like Ray on that song. I think he did that on purpose, who knows why though.

I really, really like this song. But, it's being overplayed by the radio/tv and by me. So, I'm probably going to get sick of it soon.

Yeah, he did it on purpose. The part Jaime sings is a sample from a Ray Charles song..

I love the song! It's my favorite right now at least. But when i first heard on it on trl i was like 'wtf? huh.gif '

Oh and i heard kanye west on the radio a couple days ago and he said that the beginning is jaime fox and the one that sounds like ray is actually ray or something like that.

Hahah I really like this song. I'm just amazed at how much Jamie sounds like Ray Charles. I remember when he did that first Kanye song Slow Jamz, I thought it was a joke. Now I know to take him seriously.

I hope everyone doesn't start doing that funny little dance Kanye does in the video where his .

But of course. If you notice in the intro, Jamie sings "she takes my money" but when the song kicks in, you hear "she gives me money," which is the original lyric from Ray Charles' "I Got A Woman."

I agree. Jamie Foxx does sound like Ray Charles a bunch. I love the song. It's not really played that much around here though.
