Lucky Daye Features Babyface & Samples Toni Braxton on New Single “Shoulda”

Sampling Toni Braxton’s “Love Shoulda Brought You Home,” and working with Babyface requires a certain caliber of talent, and Lucky Daye executes both aspects extremely well.

Different from the original, the chorus still exudes nostalgia, even with a few word changes. The pain and questioning that Braxton held in the original is there in Daye’s version, just from a different perspective and time.

“There you changing stories, but baby just stop/ I’m fucked up baby, I’m fucked up girl/ I believed your lies, Thought your heart was true/ Where was your heart last night, When I needed you/ Love shoulda brought your ass home last night”

Get “Shoulda” here.
