Mary J. Blige has scored a major deal with the Think Like A Man franchise. She has recorded a bunch of new songs just for the soundtrack of the upcoming sequel. Blige teamed up with Pharrell for one of the first songs off of the soundtrack, "See That Boy Again."
Mary J. Blige ft Pharrell "See That Boy Again" Lyrics:
I remember standing there grooving
Nodding my head just moving
My girlfriend dragged me to this place
Staring at the crowd like we do
I saw this guy through the people
And that’s when I saw your face
But you came over to me
As sweet as can be
And grabbed my left hand
Started stepping
What else did I need to know
I said yes if you wanted to go
Cause you are heaven
But you left me hereSo I gotta see that boy again
Cause I wanna feel that joy again
I remember leaning on his shoulder
Something and Cola
What he ordered
That’s why I, I am on this floor again
I wanna see that boy againListen to me
My girlfriend says introduce her
But I ain’t gonna lie, I wanna lose her
You're so nice you want to pay
Ooh you have a way with females
I didn’t get your number or email
What the hell was in my brain
Cause I know that you believe
But I couldn't let you see that I was stressing
I lost breath and
Then you grabbed your Mercedes keys
But you paused before you leave
And I just stood there
Like I didn’t have a careSo I gotta see that boy again
Cause I gotta feel that joy again
I remember leaning on his shoulder
Something and Cola
What he ordered
That’s why I, I am on this floor again
I wanna see that boy againListen to me
It’s like the part in a movie
That get away
Oh no, not the person you want
The person you want is losing
So you pray
But the circumstances, changes course
Which is entirely up to the boss
But remember
Just because it’s written don’t mean you can’t play
Your hand to change your fateSo I wanna see that boy again
Cause I wanna feel that joy again
I remember leaning on his shoulder
Something and Cola
What he ordered
And so I, I’m on this floor
I'm on this floor looking for you
Where did you go
Where did you go
I’m on this floor
I don’t wanna leave without you baby
Where is my baby
The song is reminiscent of old school R&B, channeling pioneers like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye with its subtle horns and the funky bass. Blige hasn't come out with a true album since 2011 but she proves here that she certainly hasn't missed a beat since then. Groove out to the new track above.
Think Like A Man Too (Music From & Inspired by the Film) is set to be released on June 17th and the film will be in theaters on June 20th.
