"IV play" feels like vintage terius to me in that it has like four diff hooks, the funny thing is that the main chorus is by far the least memorable of them all

it's so hilarious to me that he wrote a song about 12 Play and then flipped the title to reduce the cleverness of it
easily the best (or least underwhelming?) of all his recent songs though imo
― some dude, Thursday, 11 April 2013 03:17 (thirteen years ago)
the verses very 'memoirs'-era imo
― k3vin k., Thursday, 11 April 2013 03:22 (thirteen years ago)
it's good but i prefer the nu-FILA "slow it down" to it, to me that's more what dream's all about
― k3vin k., Thursday, 11 April 2013 03:25 (thirteen years ago)
i still think the songwriting on that is pretty weak, but yeah this is a pretty overt stylistic exercise

Dreamer's been releasing a lot of music that perks my ears lately, but for as good as all of these songs sound, not one of them has been anywhere near classic. It's really frustrating; it feels like his gift is still there, but he just can't close the deal anymore.
― Evan R, Thursday, 9 May 2013 21:13 (thirteen years ago)
that's not a pattern that genius producers have historically fallen into at all!
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Thursday, 9 May 2013 21:19 (thirteen years ago)
this is actually the first song off this project i can half-imagine willingly listening to again! certainly the most immediate
oh gawwwwwd jay-z is terrrrible though why is he mimicking kanye's HUHHHH
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Thursday, 9 May 2013 21:20 (thirteen years ago)
i KNEW before the outro even happened that it'd be a soft and billowy and nothingy affair purely based on j0rdan liking it, lol
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Thursday, 9 May 2013 21:23 (thirteen years ago)
i can actually remember this one after it ended! it's a bit like a third-tier "hit it on the road"
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Thursday, 9 May 2013 21:24 (thirteen years ago)
A non-event. No crisis though. But 4Play sounds classic after it.

What singles are available now, and what's worth buying?
Don't say "High Art"
― Beatrix Kiddo (Raymond Cummings), Wednesday, 15 May 2013 00:17 (thirteen years ago)
Did he really need a song named "Pussy"?
― Beatrix Kiddo (Raymond Cummings), Wednesday, 15 May 2013 00:18 (thirteen years ago)
3. Equestrain4. Pussy (Feat. Big Sean & Pusha T)

everything below "outro" i'm thinkin is an itunes deluxe edition track

there are samples on itunes, it sounds p bad :/
― daft on the causes of punk (schlump), Wednesday, 15 May 2013 00:35 (thirteen years ago)
too early sample sounds nice
― johnny crunch, Wednesday, 15 May 2013 00:43 (thirteen years ago)
haven't listened to samples yet but have not dug anything off this except "slow it down" (a nice throwback to los' cotton-candy) and "IV play" (terius indulging in maximalism)...
