I Agree maybe we got some big head geniuses on KTT (we don't) but my initial reaction was this

i like this song

there wasn't much to the first beat. was pretty basic and stayed the same the whole time. I don't even remember him playing Keems whole verse too so that would have been overkill for the same repetitive thing. it was cool while we had it but final version superior

Keem flows better over them funeral organs too. LP2 completely swapped the beat while final gave us a mix of everything (other than the original drums iirc)

It’s the only song I prefer a different version of

LP 1 version is 10/10

only things i would change on donda would be to add Push and Kanye verses back to Donda/South Carolina, add a Hurricane Pt. 2 with OG beat, make the Heaven and Hell choir drop as hard as the LP 2 drop, and remove the crackling on Shensea outro of Pure Souls.

na
first beat sets the mood
then keem with the organs i think it takes a lil bit of getting used to cus the choir sample was crazy during his auto tune part n tbh that’s the only segment i wish remained the same

but otherwise the organs feel rly grand for keems verse and i like that

I choose to believe Trav says “tummy take two when I’m on one” foreshadowing his next kid

I disagree, the song got better each time. LP2 had the organs throughout the whole beat which was a great addition but a lil repetitive and then for the final version i like how the organs only come in for Keems verse, makes it more dynamic

And having Ye say "The devil my opp" made it 2x harder

Only song i think got worse is Pure Souls, that piano was too good and i honestly prefer no drums on it. Also I think the Ye verse was better on it. I made a version with the LP1 version and shenseea outro tho so its all good

I’m not sure if admitting you couldn’t understand a Travis verse is in your best interest

Yeah, this life I'm livin' (I'm livin')
Travis lives life
All the advice been tipped in (That thang)
Travis gets advice
Gave me that grip, no slippin' (That grip)
Travis has s***Out of my mind, went trippin' (My mind)
Travis takes d****
Tell me take two when I'm on one (I'm on)
Travis takes a lot of d****
That lookout like no one
Travis has dilligent bodyguards
Kept it real tight like your son (Your son)
Yeah (La Flame)
He cares more about the sound, okay cool I like Cocteau Twins but at least make ur s*** interesting. I know its not the song for him to do a whole lyrical verse (although he should make a better verse for a kanye project) but this is how all of his songs are now

First LP version the best

I love both, need a combined version imo

Okay so all of that makes perfect sense? Thought u said it didn’t make any sense

the organs kinda get repititive throughout the album for me on some listens but here i really like it

only song that sounds too stripped back from other versions is jesus lord. really wish they didnt dial back the synths, really love the las vegas version

OP trippin

that bar is

If baby keem wasn’t bullshitting for a minute & a half & Kanye had a verse somewhere in there it wouleve been top 5 donda

The final version is literally the best version

Classic demoitis
The first version of the beat was too barebones

lmao wild. Praise God is in my top 3 for the album

demoitis is a serious illness

how you gonna say the version without those 808s is better

worst opinion is people saying trav should've done the whole thing

so kanye literally shouldn't have been on the song at all?
