Rap-Up.com || New Music: Nicole Scherzinger – ‘Don’t Hold Your Breath’

Nicole Scherzinger staves off an ex’s advances on “Don’t Hold Your Breath,” the latest single from her upcoming solo debut. Taking it to the clubs on the empowering pop jam, the lead Pussycat Doll makes it clear that her relationship is over. “You can’t touch me now, there’s no feeling left/ If you think I’m comin’ back, don’t hold your breath/ What you did to me, boy I can’t forget,” sings a scorned Nicole. Listen to her declare her independence below.

she can’t create a successful lane for herself without a bunch of girls behind her.

Umm… didn’t Timbo and Keri made this song a long time ago? With a much better beat from Timbo instead of RedOne? This is not as good as the Keri version… beat sucks too…

Shes sexy, I’ll give her that. Somewhat nice vocals, but shes not Beyonce hot, and never will be!

While I love Nicole, I like the Timbaland and Keri Hilson version much better.

Keri and Timbos version kills! Sorry Nicole… Unless you’re leading a pack of girls or you’re a featured guest… You got nothing.

I never get why she always pick these floppy songs?

I mean,she’s got the look,voice and star charisma!

I like this song a bit,not it’s not strong enough to make it big! Poison was such a good song with awful music video. I like her,she could do much better!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz… She’s just not a good solo artist. She doesn’t have the character and emotion to do it.

You guys from the USA really s-u-c-k.

This song is awesome.

SHE is awesome!!!. Actually I think she is one of the most talented female artist at the moment!. As Gaga, she never lyp-sync….not like Beyonce.

She’s got a lot of potential!!!….but you guys from the USA don’t see it because you just hate her.

C’mon Rap-Up, You guys should know better she’s already had an ablum called Her Name Is Nicole back in ’07 it was a dud that’s why nobody knows about it (even you guys!… There is no reason whatsoever for you to be making mistakes like that. Just google her God’s sake!! Don’t diminish your credibility over such trivial stuff. *SMH*

@tateblaze, The album was never commercially released. Do your research before calling us out.

You know EW said it best, girl groups are either 1-a group of individual yet interesting artist (TLC, Spice Girls) or lead by somebody with great charisma and talent (Destiny Child, Supremes) and PCD was none of those. Yes I loved PCD songs but each time Nicole tries to go solo her songs sound generic and late. Give it up Nikki, it’s not shame in being in a girl band, you’ll do better that way.

I don’t understand why people hate her so much. Its not her fault that she got to lead all the songs whilst with PCD. Those who prefer Keri’s version is coz u too urban.. Anyway, hope she doesn’t release it in the US, even the album.. Ya’ll scrutinize too much.. Boring

@Chase, she workd with Sean Garreth and Polow on whatever u like.. What happened? It flopped. And its not coz of its a bad song, its simply coz people are narrow minded.. They never give people a chance.. They just judge.. To hell with them

Nicole Scherzinger should stop recycling music from other artists. It will lead in too much criticism and comparison.

She should try working with Swizz Beatz.

..for you guys who don’t know how to appreciate such a good music just keep your mouth shut all we know is that it’s a good song now a days..we are kinda sick of hearing almost disco songs from all artist, what we need right now are nice tracks to hear to the ears and this song is one of those tracks vocally it’s great. HATERS just go away
