"Can't Nobody" is an R&B/pop song written by American songwriter-producer Rich Harrison, Robert Reed and Tony Fisher for Kelly Rowland's solo debut album Simply Deep (2002). It also was co-produced by Harrison and received a generally positive reception from music critics. The song was released as the album's second single in January/April 2003 and although it widely failed to match the success of its predecessor "Stole", "Can't Nobody" reached number 10 on the composite World Singles Official Top 100 chart.

[edit] Song information
"Can't Nobody" was the first song producer and songwriter Rich Harrison worked on through his deal with Sony and the first song ever finished with a Destiny's Child member. In contrast to his own production style and major parts of Simply Deep - which generally featured mid-tempo tracks and wide influences by Pop and Rock music - the track includes a beat driven but poppy and radio-friendly instrumental, involving elements from "Let's Get Small", a song written by Robert Reed and Tony Fisher and performed by Trouble Funk.
In the lyrics, Rowland describes an infatuation as she tries to convince the object of desire of her charms and advantages, singing lines such as: "I'm so real, so soft to touch, my love my kiss so sweet, glorious ..."
The Video Was Filmed By Benny Boom.Even though Rowland didn't perform the single during official promo appearances and the video received minor airplay only, "Can't Nobody" did comparatively well on the charts. In Europe and Australia the Simply Deep single once again saw success, entering the top ten on the majority of the charts it appeared on, reaching number five on the UK singles chart and top twenty on the Australian ARIA chart. In the United States the song received little commercial response, when it debuted and peaked at number ninety-seven on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and number seventy-two on the U.S. Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks.
