According to O, their 2005 version was different from theВ Vandross versionВ because it was made by a singer and a rapper. Omarion did acknowledge he was featured on Bow WowвЂ™s song вЂњLet Me Hold YouвЂќ which sampled Luther VandrossвЂ™s classic вЂњIf Only for One NightвЂќ cover from 1985. Then itвЂ™s like, вЂWell, what happens after that song?вЂ™ You still have to create music from scratchвЂ¦ вЂYou gotta work on your sh*tвЂ™ is basically what IвЂ™m trying to say. He added, вЂњI think the sentiment of is okayвЂ¦ You canвЂ™t stifle yourself by having a song that is already famous. So if youвЂ™re not making the song greater, then the song is kinda like what it was.В I think people forget that theyвЂ™re sampling a great song and they forget to make it even more great which is difficult to do.вЂќ вЂњItвЂ™s already difficult, in my personal opinion, to make a great song greater. вЂњI think itвЂ™s lazy,вЂќ said Omarion during an interview for Joe BuddenвЂ™s Pull Up show. However, the B2K founding member is not a big fan of sampling old R&B cuts in order to make modern renditions.

Omarion is also tapping into turn-of-the-century nostalgia with вЂњThe Millennium Tour 2020вЂќ featuring Bow Wow,В Soulja Boy, Ashanti, Ying Yang Twins, Lloyd, Sammie, and Pretty Ricky. Something that would make us celebrate our happy memories вЂ“ music to enjoy life to,вЂќ explained Tory Lanez on recreating popular records with Chris Brown, T-Pain, Trey Songz, MГЅa, and others. вЂњI wanted to make something that people from different generations could appreciate and share together.
