Not long after making the difficult decision to turn down USC, Bellinger joined the R&B group AKNU (A Kind Never Understood) and was soon signed to Epic Records by two of the music industries most successful executives , Max Gousse and Tommy Motola.
After experiencing success recording and touring with AKNU, Eric returned home to work on new music and discovered another passion, songwriting. The exceptionally gifted singer and rapper mastered his natural ability to instantly hear melody and rhythm under the guidance of childhood mentor and friend, Erika Nuri of The Writing Camp.

I see 'em looking at my woman, oh
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, oh
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, naw
Yeah she bad ain't she?
I know you mad ain't ya?
'Cause she only want me and no one else
I tell her put her heels on
So she can show off them legs
But even with her clothes on, she turn heads
I see 'em lookin' at my woman (I see 'em lookin' at my woman) yeah yeah
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, oh
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, naw
Bad bitches put your hand up (Hand up) I need to see you
Twerk, twerk it for a real nigga
If you nails done and your weave new
Never be raggedy kind you find in vanity mags
Hundred with everything on me rockin then shaggidy bags
PDA never shame when I kiss her step back like, "Look at that frame on that picture"
With yo bad ass, its her night no glad ass
Pretty face with a fat ass
In a dress straight from badass Tennessee
Who she going home with? You fittin' to see nigga
I see 'em looking at my woman, oh
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, oh
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, nah
If they ain't lookin' at my baby
Then it's something wrong with me
If they ain't hating on what we got
I'ma need a new woman
If they ain't lookin' at my baby
Then it's something wrong with me
If they ain't hating on what we got
I'ma need a new woman
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
I see I can see 'em look yea
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl (If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl)
No I don't want it
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want her (If they ain't lookin' I don't want her)
If they ain't lookin' I don't want that girl, naw
