Eenie Meenie

It was originally released as the first single from Kingston's third studio album Back 2 Life on March 15, 2010,[1] but was taken off for unknown reasons.

The song, a dance-pop number with Kingston's reggae influences and Bieber's R&B vocals, is lyrically about an indecisive lover.

The accompanying music video features Kingston and Bieber at a pool party at a condo, being pursued by the same girl.

[6] The song features a prominent synthesized back beat, followed by verses from both singers, then a rap interlude, while utilizing the children's rhyme "Eenie Meenie Miny Moe.

"[7] Kyle Anderson of MTV said that "'Eenie Meenie' melds Sean Kingston's island-inflected dance-pop with Bieber's sweet tween R&B.

[9] Rudy Klapper of Sputnikmusic wrote about the lyrics, on the album review, that those are "disturbing", but at the same time "unintentionally hilarious."

"[10] Luke O'Neil from The Boston Globe noted "Sultry reggaeton is repackaged here for the tween set with Sean Kingston's 'Eenie Meenie.'

"[11] In the United States "Eenie Meenie" entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number thirty on April 7, 2010, where it was the highest debut of the week.

[14] On the Billboard issue dated May 15, 2010, the single reached its peak, at number fifteen,[15] and it was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.

[30][32] Jocelyn Vena of MTV News reviewed the video, "Here's the play-by-play: While Kingston and the lady in question are flirting out on the deck, Bieber is chilling inside.

Two young men are talking. The man on the left has their hands raised, pointing upwards with his index fingers, he is wearing a gray jacket and a white shirt. The man of the right has his left arm on his chest, he is wearing a red shit and a black T-shirt. Behind them a group of people have their hands up.
