This is a weird ass record.   Listened off the strength of the title, there’s 5 remixes on it, the beats are on some low-rent Four Tet sound, and overall it’s a (purposefully…?) cheesy sounding, overtly sexual dance record that contains some rapping (no Grammy nod for “Best Rap / Sung Collaboration”?!), But there are memorable moments that are characteristic Nickatina (cf. “Genuine Draft” and “Can’t Be Faded”).  ”Genuine Draft” sounds like a coke-fueled run through an old oil town, and “Can’t Be Faded” has the same tinny player-piano sound going on, but with 808s, jazz breaks, and Nicky T bragging about his Korean fame. Yeah, again, this record is weird. -SM
