Given the visuals, it seems like what is about to come out of his mouth is probably YoungBoy knockoff tough-talking or drill, but actually no…he sings. Very gently and emotionlessly about blowing stacks on his crush and with a pitch-altered effect that loses steam after about five seconds. It’s like a movie that’s entirely built around a twist that falls flat. Not to mention that I’ve seen this juxtaposition between sound and scene pulled off better and far more subtly before. Hello, Mustafa, Kelz, and Jim Legxacy.

But I never feel like he’s under a spell or in a love-drunk trance, he’s just reading words, lacking the rawness of an unedited voice or the way so many rap stars have used vocal modifications to push romantic emotions to the brink. No love or lust or yearning, just a self-serious meme begging for your clicks.

Why exactly did this need a separate thread?

It is

He should make music since he knows exactly what makes a song good

He’s right

copium

Dawg weren’t u hating on 4batz too?

This about the original version?

It was. Drake didn’t add anything to the song. Just a lil sleepy ass verse that ran for too long

the review mostly criticizes 4batz and barely talks about drake

was my first thought upon listening

Pitchfork been butthurt about Drake since the Meg diss

Alphonse writes mainstream song is bad and then praises underground rapper from Detroit part 137

No surprise here bucko

Is he wrong lol

i'd say that's factual

This

But also this

Thanks, was waiting for his opinion before I made mine

that explains it all for me. ted talk is over.

The irony...CKL TML should make music since he knows exactly what makes a song good

bro you can’t be fr lol

Dude is a dweeb who believes hating everything that's mainstream makes him cool lmao.
