the fact that terius inspires such great knock-offs kind of cements his awesomeness imo

The second half of that is O_O.
Terius should totally steal that trick from Jeremih.

wow what just happened? "waiter" was just kinda decent for me but "the 5 senses" is stunningly beautiful

"broken down" is like, hey ceelo this is how you do retro with some panache without being so damn obvious about it
― wakafledia (k3vin k.), Sunday, 31 October 2010 19:12 (thirteen years ago) link
Album is GREAT. I agree with "like me" similarities in that he's going with what suits him the best throughout, gorgeous melodies, no stupid tricks that ruin the flow.

god 'my sunshine' is just the most devastating song. you'd think his youthfulness would work against him on a song of such import, but actually it's what makes it: you just wouldn't want to ever wish this level of heartbreak on someone so young.

nicely put, love that song

gotta really listen to this a bit and get into it; initial impression is that it's spectacular

this is a really nice album -- trey & ne-yo take Ls imo

"dawn on me" should be a hit, damn
i lol'd at "let's take 9 shots/ just call it 50"
i guess that would be "down on money" - more classic tagging
― thomas smangalter (J0rdan S.), Monday, 15 November 2010 08:57 (thirteen years ago) link
"take off" sounds like jesse mccartney to me, in a good way
― thomas smangalter (J0rdan S.), Monday, 15 November 2010 08:58 (thirteen years ago) link
"holding on" is really the only one i'm not fucking w/ cuz it's mad tedder
― thomas smangalter (J0rdan S.), Monday, 15 November 2010 09:15 (thirteen years ago) link
i love how he affects a real deep almost dancehall voice on "down on me"
― thomas smangalter (J0rdan S.), Monday, 15 November 2010 09:21 (thirteen years ago) link
"down on me" -> "waiter/5 senses" is a pretty much perfect stretch of r&b

more or less see this album as sorta like the awkward self-conscious teenage growing pained older brother to the exuberant little bubbleworld of the first. (by that i'm not saying the earlier record wasn't derivative, just that it was derivative in its own way; it's the difference between 'birthday sex' and 'sleepers', the stronger suggestion of jeremih speaking through other ppl's voices and seeing the stuff he does through other ppl's eyes.)
like i mentioned on the rolling thread though i'm not really into being overly critical of this album cos even on its least successful cuts i still think there's always something earcatching to enjoy, either on the production or vocal side, and yeah basically i remain fully supportive of these talented & (especially so in a barren r&b year like this) unusual dudes.
― r|t|c, Thursday, 18 November 2010 05:22 (thirteen years ago) link
by the by a couple of cuts on this (mainly the two after '5 senses', but in small doses elsewhere too) totally make me think jeremih should probably have a career on stage or in glee or something.
― r|t|c, Thursday, 18 November 2010 05:28 (thirteen years ago) link
agree the new thread is unnecessary btw, if it wasn't already clear.
― r|t|c, Thursday, 18 November 2010 05:30 (thirteen years ago) link
i think this compares pretty badly to the first album, actually - seems a lot of the arrangements are stripped further back, which makes jeremih's reedy voice stick out a lot more - it gets kinda one-note over the course of an album. and there aren't any standouts on the same level as "birthday sex"/"imma star"/"raindrops".

anyone heard this? nothing special or anything but a link for completist stans
sorta bummes at the lack of talk about his new one, which i thought was prety strong actually. he's someone for whom i'd check all his new shit
― originoo gun kl0pper (k3vin k.), Thursday, 3 February 2011 05:28 (thirteen years ago) link
good song!
― goole, Thursday, 3 February 2011 06:04 (thirteen years ago) link
"All About You" is such a good album. The production is great and Jeremih himself seems to have a really likeable personality - romantic, sweet and sexual without seeming too sleazy or overly macho.

I had no idea his name was pronounced the way it is
― suxv (Whiney G. Weingarten), Wednesday, 30 March 2011 20:25 (thirteen years ago) link
it's with a long "I", right? he says it in a few of his songs and on his twitter he writes "my" as "mih"
i'm guessing most of you slept on this album
― kl0p's son (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 30 March 2011 20:32 (thirteen years ago) link
i definitely did, but there never seemed to be as much excitement around it as the first, just hard to get motivated. also not crazy about "down on me" but its success at least means there'll probably be a 3rd album.
― some dude, Wednesday, 30 March 2011 20:34 (thirteen years ago) link
think it's Jer-MI with a long I
― slight even by tweet standards (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 30 March 2011 20:34 (thirteen years ago) link
long i definitely but all three syllables pronounced imo
― some dude, Wednesday, 30 March 2011 20:36 (thirteen years ago) link
'holding on' is the unsung hero of this album (which is so so good btw)
the way he sings "for all we know / this rocky road / would just be the transition to unstoppable" is orgasmic. p.s. i am 99% sure i got those lyrics wrong
― uberweiss, Wednesday, 30 March 2011 20:45 (thirteen years ago) link
i always end up pronouncing it jeremiah

that's pretty much what it is minus the 'uh' at the end
― some dude, Wednesday, 30 March 2011 23:49 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah ships "down on me" is prob the worst song on the album, glad he got a hit at least tho he deserves it
― kl0p's son (k3vin k.), Thursday, 31 March 2011 03:37 (thirteen years ago) link
"down on me" is awesome

― maybe i'm just gay (Tape Store), Thursday, 31 March 2011 03:41 (thirteen years ago) link
i think there's a perfect balance of sleaziness & charm that really makes the song work -- i realized it when i was thinking too much about "love faces" & how trey songz really lacks tact in his songs, but i feel like jeremih in that song is sorta like a dick that would actually get a girl cuz his jokes are funny ("let's just take nine shots, we can call it 50") -- that balance of sleaziness & charm is also a big step up from "birthday sex" which i love as a song but jeremih's persona on that song is pretty ridiculous
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 March 2011 03:42 (thirteen years ago) link
the baltimore doc? didn't that come out like almost a year before "down on me"? or do you mean "birthday sex"?
