production and hook on album version a million times better like all of party's demos. second verse cool tho

i saw it was uploaded today and thought it was something else lol

better than album version imo

Does somebody have the post of someone describing High Hopes in great detail? I can’t find it anywhere

An excerpt from an old P3 thread I found on KTT

"1. HIGH HOPES (Prod. PARTYNEXTDOOR)

"Everything's still good with me, I got high hopes when I'm checkin' on you, I hope everything's just fine with you ..."

The album starts with "High Hopes" the title of the track being a bit ironic considering it’s the intro & foreshadows the expectations we've had for (P3). we're reintroduced to a familiar female voice, the infamous "Pa Pa Party, Party" tag, indicating that the opener to this long awaited project is produced by no other than the man himself. An eerie pulsating sound, ringing phone & machine gun usher the track, ensued by an industrial steel-toed kick-drum rhythm set a haunting tone for Partynextdoor to seemingly creep out the hazy shadows harmonizing in a ghoulish fashion before uttering his first words on the album "5 made me, *, *, 905 made me, yea" he repeats, reminding us he's indebted to the city that made him come this far & still be able to share the music we're about to hear.

"She call me daddeeeeee", he reluctantly croons with an abrupt siren going off before he proceeds to oscillate between rapping & singing experimenting with multiple flows & vocal styles about wanting sex, to smoke & vibe out with a previous female endeavor (who's allegedly with another man). It leaves PND almost, in this contradictive & conflicting state.Torn between lust & loneliness, he goes from "wanting her by his side, with her jeans down to her ankles" on one verse to "Wanting racks, needing b****es" on the next, all while 'taking trips down memory lane' by cleverly referencing / interpolating Blackstreet’s 96 classic “No Diggity".

"I hope everything's just fine with you, Cause I got high hopes" Party yearns for assurance, sounding strenuously soulful on the hook, extending his notes & tuning out some strained vocals evoking a young Joel "JoJo" Hailey on "Diary of a Mad Band". "I'm just checkin' on youuuuuu" he howls as if his self paranoia / behavior couldn't get any more creepy / uncomfortable. The contrast between the smooth old school 90's feel chorus & abstract, hedonistic wicked verses is intoxicating.

Brathwaite continues to switch it up as the story unravels, the sonics expand & huge bass hums. Raspily singing, whispering & snarlingly rapping about late night hookups, debauchery & adulterous affairs / threesomes out in Miami, Houston & Toronto's Férina estate with a goopy synth pattern featuring what sounds like persistent water-drops leaking from a rusty sink pipe. He again references another 90's classic, this time Ice Cube's west coast rap anthem "Today Was a Good Day" while littering these 'spine chilling' harmonic wailing echoes float above the tracks heavy percussion in the background.

“High Hopes” is a f***ing epic, seven minute intro, point blank, period!. It's lo-fi nocturnal, self-produced, progressive sinister beat coupled with Plucked references from old 90s R&B/Hiphop records warping them into something so bleak & eerie is quite unlike anything Party has ever done before. It's moody, dark & disturbing, murky reverb atmosphere & nocturnal aesthetic is gripping. Also, the willingness / ability to experiment by stacking melodies & shifting cadences to impressionistic effect truly showcases the versatility that Jahron's able to tap into. A perfectly polarizing slap in the face to any doubters of Party's production skills & confidently fitting introduction to the album.

5/5"

Couldn't have described it better myself

THIS?

This is it thank you 😊🙏🙏🙏

Wish the full version was somewhere to be found

and still running laps around these boys in the new decade. PARTY IS KING

This fatass posting candy on his story lmaooo

He should’ve used this version on the album and just cleaned it up a bit. Album version sounds more like an interlude to me compared to this

F*** the way he let that 808 ride i thought for sure he would add to the leaked version but it just ended up basically being a interlude on the album

on yo grandma and yo mama life

promise u gon make it out this alive

For the whole album? I can find the full album one, just Google Kanye to the high hopes partynextdoor

5 years of P3 is even more mind blowing. The lead up to P3 was the golden days of KTT.
