i dunno, if i had to worry about the lyrical content i wouldn't listen to lots of things, i think the production is really great on "make up bag"...

if i loved the production/song, i'd forgive the crap lyrics, but no

the block i usually skip is panties to the side/turnt out/february love (latter two not actively bad but i don't really NEED to listen to them ever)
Same here - the first is actively awful and the other two I like but their relative restraint feels kinda out of place against the preposterous excess of the rest of the album. In a certain mood though I go directly for Turnt Out and February Love on their own though.
Veteran is magnificent and it still annoys me that Terius included Panties To The Side instead of it.
I kinda think of Nikki Pt 2 and Abyss as the same song, they don't really work on their own. Wish they were one track really.
― Matt DC, Sunday, 5 June 2011 16:30 (twelve years ago) link
veteran is amazing yeah...forgot about that in my deliberations.
― MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T BE LIVING HERE!! (Local Garda), Sunday, 5 June 2011 16:32 (twelve years ago) link
panties to the side is the song ive most warmed up to after initially always skipping it; now i kinda group it w/ 'ditch that' or 'hit it on the road' as overt standalone-type tracks that are good to drive or jog to
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 5 June 2011 16:35 (twelve years ago) link
like "panties to the side" and never got the hate. it's gross, sure, but unlike "make up bag", justifies itself musically, imo.
― orchestral pygnoeuvres in zee park (contenderizer), Sunday, 5 June 2011 16:59 (twelve years ago) link
i don't really like any of terius' song in that vein - "panties", "ditch that", "WFY"

But Make Up Bag has those amazing watery organ noises whereas the music is the worst thing about Panties To The Side. WFY has awesome momentum, Panties To The Side just waddles along awkwardly.
― Matt DC, Sunday, 5 June 2011 17:52 (twelve years ago) link
"panties" is aight but the other two are a+ terius classics xp
― Spo-Dee-O-Dee-Dopaliscious! (The Reverend), Sunday, 5 June 2011 17:54 (twelve years ago) link
i said this when the album came out but stylistically "make up bag" is more in the "i luv your girl" lineage than the other 3 i mentioned - each is not among the strongest songs on its album and sort of fucks up the flow, but each sounds better outside of album context. "i luv your girl" >>> "make up bag" tho
― positive rapper (k3vin k.), Sunday, 5 June 2011 17:55 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, I don't quite love "I Luv Your Girl" on the album, but it's prob my favorite single of his as a radio jam.
― Spo-Dee-O-Dee-Dopaliscious! (The Reverend), Sunday, 5 June 2011 17:59 (twelve years ago) link
"Make Up Bag" isn't as strong tho.
imo it doesn't touch "shawty is da shit!", which is still his best single i think, but yeah outside of album context it works much better
― positive rapper (k3vin k.), Sunday, 5 June 2011 18:07 (twelve years ago) link

it's def in my top 3 and i might've come closer to voting for it if t.i. was on the album version, but anything besides "yamaha" winning reeks of contraristanning imo

i love "f.i.l.a." but would never have picked it as the most likely to upset "yamaha"!
― the smoke cloud of pure hatred (lex pretend), Saturday, 18 June 2011 07:59 (twelve years ago) link
find it fairly amusing f.i.l.a. wins when make up bag was deeemed somehow offensive or "odious" by a few people. pretty sure "quiet woman i bought you a make up bag", as offensive as that may be pales in significance to pretty much the entire f.i.l.a. lyric. dumb and all as opening that can of worms is anyway.
