"Supawoman" is the sixth single from American Idol finalist, Kimberley Locke, and first from her Based on a True Story album. While the album version is a downtempo R&B song, an 80's Drum and Bass inspired remix by Def Jef was made for radio release. It was sent out for adds at pop radio on August 7, 2006. Fan reaction to the song was positive, however opinions on the remix were mixed. Even though the song was used in Lane Bryant's advertising campaign, the remix was not well received at pop radio and got very little airplay and failed to chart.

[edit] Billboard Review
One of the more successful graduates of "American Idol," Locke makes her eagerly awaited return with a more urban turn than 2003 pop smash "8th World Wonder" and follow-up AC hits "Better Than This" and "I Could." Still in force are her supercharged chops, perfectly suited to this robust anthem attesting to the inherent gifts of a good woman in search of an equally quality man. The slightly amped tempo of the accompanying DHM radio edit (3:11) gives the track more of a drum'n'bass sting. Locke, more than most members of the franchise, proves that she has long-term prospects. In fact, next to Kelly Clarkson, Locke has the greatest chance of expunging the "A.I." stigma and becoming an entity of her own. - Chuck Taylor
