B.o.B의 첫번째 정규 앨범인 <BoB Presents: Adventures of Bobby Ray>의 수록곡으로 B.o.B(Bobby Simmons, Jr) & Bruno Mars & Philip Lawrence &Ari Levine 이 공동으로 작사작곡 하였으며, The Smeezingtons 이 프로듀싱 하였다.

 

빌보드 HOT 100 에서 2주간 1위를 차지했고, 영국, 네덜란드, 대한민국등에서 1위를 차지하면서 전세계적으로 많은 사랑을 받았는데,

팝랩(Pop-Rap)이면서 R&B가 함유된 미국남부 힙합 발라드인 이 곡은, 팝랩 특유의 밝고 경쾌한 분위기로 취향을 크게 타지않고 진입장벽이 낮았기에 수많은 대중으로 부터 사랑을 받았고, 평단으로부터도 많은 호평을 받았다.

======================================================================

*팝랩(Pop-Rap)이란? :

팝 힙합(Pop Hip Hop), 멜로딕 힙합(Melodic Hip Hop) , 멜로딕 랩(Melodic Rap)이라고도 불리는데, 힙합 음악의 리듬을 기반으로한 서정시체에 팝 음악의 진입장벽이 낮은 멜로디컬한 보컬을 융합한 음악 장르.

2011년 제53회 GRAMMY AWARDS에서 Best Rap Song & Best Rap/Sung Collaboration & Record of the Year 3개 부문에 노미네이트되었으며, 그외의 많은 시상식에서 지명되거나 수상하는등 상업적 성공과 더불어 영예를 동시에 받았다.

 

 

이 곡은 미국의 래퍼인 B.o.B(본명 : Bobby Simmons, Jr)가 랩을 맡고 브루노 마스가 송 파트의 피처링을 맡은B.o.B의 곡인 동시에 Bruno Mars의 데뷔곡이다. 특히 이 "Nothin' on You"는 대한민국에서 엄청난 인기를 누리게 되는데, Bruno Mars가 피처링으로 참여한 것임에도 B.o.B 보다 오히려 Bruno Mars가 한국에 널리 알려지게 된 계기가 되었다.

사실 원래 Nothin' on You 은 Lupe Fiasco을 위해 만들어진 곡이었다. 하지만 곡이 녹음이 끝난 후, Atlantic Records의 회장인 'Craig Kallman'은 Lupe Fiasco의 버전을 마음에 들지 않아했고, 이 곡은 B.o.B에게로 넘어갔다. 당시 데뷔전이었던 신성 Bruno Mars 와 Philip Lawrence의 허밍 멜로디(hummed melody)에서 곡의 메인 멜로디가 탄생했고 수개월의 시간이 걸려서야 곡이 완성될 수 있었다고 한다.

 

뮤직비디오는 2000년대와 2010년대 초에 미국에서 많이 인기 있었던 컷아웃 콜라주 애니메이션 형식으로 제작되었는데, Ethan Lader가 감독하고 George Rausch가 애니메이션을 만들었다.

Beautiful girls all over the world
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you baby
Nothin' on you baby
No' no' no' nothin' on you babe
No' no' nothin' on you

I know you feel where I'm coming from
Regardless of the things in my past that I've done
Most of it really was for the hell of the fun
On the carousel so around I spun (Spun)
With no directions just tryna get some (Some)
Tryna chase skirts, living in the summer sun (Sun)
An' so I lost more than I had ever won
And honestly I ended up with none

There's so much nonsense
It's on my conscience

I'm thinking baby I should get it out
And I don't wanna sound redundant
But I was wondering, if there was something that you wanna know
(That you wanna know)
But never mind that we should let it go (We should let it go)
'Cause we don't wanna be a t.v episode (T.V. episode)
And all the bad thoughts just let them go (Go, go, go)

Beautiful girls all over the world

I could be chasing but my time would be wasted
They got nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
Nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
They might say hi (hi) and I might say hey (Hey)
But you shouldn't worry about what they say
'Cause they got nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
Nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)

Hands down there will never be another one
I been around and I never seen another one
Because your style I ain't really got nothin' on
And you wow when you got nothin' on?
Baby you the whole package plus you pay your taxes
And you keep it real while them other stay plastic
You're my Wonder Women call me Mr. Fantastic
Stop, now think about it

I've been to London, I've been to Paris
Even way out there in Tokyo
Back home down in Georgia to New Orleans
But you always steal the show (steal the show)
And just like that girl you got a fro (Got a fro)
Like a Nintendo 64 (64)

If you never knew well now you know (Know, know, know)

Beautiful girls all over the world (All over)
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted (Haha)
They got nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
Nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
They might say hi (hi) and I might say hey (Hey)
But you shouldn't worry about what they say (Why?)
'Cause they got nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you) Nothin' on you baby

Everywhere I go I'm always hearing your name (Name, name)

And no matter where I'm at girl you make me wanna sing (Sing)
Whether a bus or a plane (plane) or a car or a train (Train)
No other girls in my brain and you the one to blame (Blame)

Beautiful girls all over the world (All over)
I could be chasing but my time would be wasted (Why?)
They got nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
Nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
They might say hi (hi) and I might say hey (Hello)
But you shouldn't worry about what they say (Why?)
'Cause they got nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
Nothin' on you baby (No' no' no' nothin' on you babe)
(No' no' nothin' on you)
