Description
i've been playing with this song for a year now, and just lost it somewhere down the road. i don't know where and how it went wrong and i'm just tired of it at the moment. so i'm uploading it as it is, hopefully sometime soon it will be saved somehow. so please feel free to bitch as much as you can, it can only get better (can it?). there are some vocal samples that i inserted because macy gray wasn't available at the moment, they should definitely get kicked out as soon as possible. i will be following up with the no-vocals version and maybe some talented singers around will chip in, we'll see.

Good stuff here. It really reminds me alot of one of the cuts on the old Issac Hayes album, "Hot Buttered Soul" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Buttered_Soul ).
Good steady groove at the beginning, contrasting section and slow build up of the groove again and fade out.
I would keep that first voice part in there but when that second voice comes in after the first voice repeated, the harmony doesn't seem to work for me. I'd leave it out or give her a different line. It also gets to busy with the back and forth with the voices later on. It might work if the the contrasting voice was more complimentary to the first voice part, otherwise I'd leave that 2nd voice out.
Also, after the first voice comes in the second or third time, I'd bring the bass back in. It comes in later and much fainter than at the beginning of the tune. That is one of your tune's driving thing, that wah bass. Flaunt it for the continuity of the piece.
I like your horn line placements, tasty.
You know, this also would sound good with some kind of rapping on top of it, possibly as a collab project down the road. But all in all, I like what ya got going.
