New Music: Teairra Mari – “U Did Dat”

Teairra Mari has seen success with her singles “Make Her Feel Good” and “Sponsor.” But problems with record labels and Internet leaks kept her from ever releasing a sophomore LP.  Her new track, “U Did Dat” is her giving it another try.

After releasing a slew of mixtapes and an EP throughout the past two years, Teairra left her place at Warner Brothers Records earlier in the year and decided to ink a deal with Rico Love’s Division 1 imprint. Rico worked with Teairra on her debut album, which was released through Roc-a-fella/Def Jam when she was 16, but this time they’ve cooked up something grown and sexy.

On the track, written by Rico, Teairra Mari seductively sings about meeting the guy who makes her forget about all the others. His skills cause temporary memory loss, and Teairra congratulates him with the chorus saying, “You did dat.”

“Just when I thought that no one could do it better, do it better, better, better, better than him.

They way you layin’ down ya sexy.

Allow me to stand corrected.

And just when I thought I’d be your friend forever, you made me forget about him.

I’m glad that I showed him the exit.

I swear boy.

You did dat.”
