The Southern attitude of this track is a good turn for our girl Ashanti and the hard mono-sing suits her voice. Her man and a trombone underscore the swagger.

I was reaaallly surprised to learn that this was Ashanti! i was thinking Rasheedah or somebody from ATL at first. It's very Down South and un-Inc., which is cool! Now being from Houston, I have to support hometown talent, but I'm feelin' "Switch" a lot! Nelly bringin' the street swag, so it's tight, and I honestly didn't recognize Ashanti's voice on this one the first time around, so I was surprised she came wit it like this! With her doin' all the stiletto name-droppin', I think the ladies gone feel this one in the clubs.

B-More's Finest says:
To me the song is very elementary like who care about your shoes or the way you walk. It's dumb and so is Ashanti. She can't sing and if her looks didn't half way carry her through she would be no where. I say Nelly is so sexy and could do better but apparently love is blind right now. When he wakes and see the light I'll be waiting for him.. signed NELLY'S # 1 Fan.

i love the song "Switch" I think that it's creative and hot. There are not too many people who would think to write a song about the way a woman walks in her shoes. I think the song is about being confident and strutting your stuff. Like the saying goes flaunt it, IF you got it! Nelly and Ashanti love it!

Gallo says:
Ashanti hasn't been able to recover since Beyonce dropped her first solo album and shut her down!!!! She had one hot year and was forgotton. So now she is desperate and trying to create hype by dueting with her boyfriend (hmmm...sound familiar? Jay and Bee, maybe?)
This song is corny and so is her fake swagger just like her fake thugette image.

Wayne says:
This song is terrible. It sounds like the rest of the trash on radio today. How can you say she sound good when she is not even singing, she is just alking.
The lyrics, the beat, Nelly's rap, it's all weak. I thought she was stepping her game up? This a downgrade. It's nothing different about this song.
They trying to do do the Jay/Beyonce thing appearing on songs together and it's not working.

RE-RE says:
This so song is very simple. The hook "Don't leave....but you love to see me walk away." Old men down here in Alabama use it all the time. So thumbs down unless they come up with a phat club remix or something beacuse Nelly really isn't doing to much on this song. What is really going on?Nelly are you going soft on us come out and play more

Phil says:
Nelly is not as good as he used to be. He has become to pop to me. Ashanti sounds good and the song is good, but Ashanti is a STUDIO artist and she can't sing live for SHIT! It will probably be a hit but nothing like a Jay-Z and Beyonce song. Real TALK!
