He also sings the lead, with additional lyrics sung by Dionne Farris, who is not an official member of the group. It also uses a sample from "Tappan Zee" by Bob James. Billboard wrote about the song: "Follow-up to act's breakthrough hit, "Tennessee," is a languid, dancehall-spiced hip-hopper that nicks the hook from Sly & the Family Stone's "Everyday People." Uplifting, unity driven rhymes are delivered with laidback finesse. Tradeoff of rapping and singing works extremely well. Destined for hefty (and much deserved) success."
