"I have no idea what Houston was thinking when she decided to release this junk as a single. Just the song title alone is enough to make my stomach going in a 180 spin. The beats are generic, predictable, and lifeless and the song overall is just a miserable failure at trying to aim at the TRL audience and it isn't helping Houston's floundering career especially with all the bad press surrounding her career. The song aims at trying to lash out at the media but the lyrics though, are simply immature and amateurish for someone who's had a career spanning over 15 years and it's saddening to see Whitney fall this low. I could think up of better lyrics from scratch in three hours. This single is just a pitiful waste of a comeback opportunity. >:-("

"For Whitney Houston, the past few years remained as difficult and as unbelieveable as you could expect from her. Still, she has ways of still showing her voice, and what she has to say about doubters. That really goes the same with Whatchulookinat, the first song released from Whitney Houston's 2002 record, Just Whitney. The song is a letter the tabloids for stalking and assault from the victim's point of view, Whitney. The song is a lot tougher than any of Whitney's other songs. Still, she also expanded a bit more within her family on this song, with thanks from her husband, Bobby Brown. I think it is a good quality song, and just listening to two sides of the story, not one. I still think that a lot of fans abandoned her because of the National Examiner, but her voice is still as exciting as it was years ago. Still, if you haven't heard the song, get Just Whitney."
