One of my favorite tracks off Chrisette Michele’s Epiphany—and an early contender for my “2009 awesomeness” iTunes playlist, in which I collect the songs that got stuck in my head over the course of the year—is “What You Do,” a swingy, rueful kiss-off to a boyfriend who just hasn’t been treating Chrisette the way she deserves. The track, which the Long Island-born singer co-wrote with Ne-Yo, is apparently getting the single push, and not a moment too soon; it deserves a place on my local R & B station’s playlist, for sure. Its attendant video pretty plainly spells out the song’s message, as the singer realizes that she’s had it up to here with a man who seems to be interested in anything and anyone that isn’t her. Clip after the jump.

Perhaps I should do an entry on the rest of this playlist later today. It is Friday, after all!
Something tells me that an entry on your “2009 Awesomeness” list, complete with the comments left by the usual suspects, will result in an emusic spending spree which I will be hard-pressed to afford…
That being said, I can’t wait.
@Maura: yes, please!
@bigricks: it is pay day after all…
