My second favorite TDE-er right here. This beat is f**king great, very reminiscent of style of rap production they don't do anymore, along the lines of some pre-"crossroads" bone thugs n harmony or even "the diary" era scarface. By the time that chorus kicked in I was fully with it. There's just an earnestness or something in this motherf**ker's voice that really gets me.
This is the first track we released as DEEPHEAD. Drugs part one is a lil kim song from the hardcore album. We all loved the original song when we were kids, but it's one of those joints, the f***ing nineties man, where the first verse keeps going, and going, and going and it loses hella steam. You're pretty much about to hit that dreaded fast forward button and sit in silence for thirty seconds when then the hook kicks in and it's f**king amazing again. I'm not saying ours is better, I mean there can't be a part two without a part one and all that, but ours doesn't lose any motherf***ing steam.
How come no one told me about this song? this sh*t is dooooope. It sounds like the best versions of weezy, fetty, and cudi all at the same time. On the mixtape there's a song featuring young thug. I can't check that sh*t, my brain will f**king explode.
This is some real black rock and roll sh*t. I think he's another one of them toronto youth them. If you're from around here, you heard the accent in the delivery of that sentence, I didn't even have to spell that sh*t out. Subliminal patois. You won't ever see something like that ever again. From me, from anyone.
Somehow when I saw this combination I knew this was going to be a jam right here. Why? why would Omarion at his solo career height, excluding "Ice Box" (which was a goddamn hit as far as I'm concerned), enlist the diminishing talents of motherf**king ghostface? I definitely don't have the answers to that sh*t. The only adjective that comes to mind for this track is ill, this sh*t is ILL. THIS SH*T IS ILLL!!!. Now indulge me and let me list some of the dope stuff in this song...
- The sample in this beat is crazy. I would never use this sample. I wouldn't even think about it. I would be so wrong.
- Ghostface does a drake-style drawn out word! GHOST DOES A DRAKE MOVE!
- Ghost raps better than I've heard since Supreme Clientele. Full disclosure, I haven't really checked for ghost since Supreme Clientele.
- Come on now, this nigga said...
- "A hundred dollars for the floyd fight/ he better knock that nigga out tonight/ cause if not, I'ma take flight/ I paid the cable nigga, you gon pay the liiiiiiiights"
- Omarion is right in that in-between singing/rapping pocket. He's delivering this sh*t like he came up with the whole style.
- This motherf**ker O' said...
- "Buenas, noches/ Shades on, dolce/ Bronco, O.J/ Dead broke, no waaaaaaay"
At this point I am officially bootlegging this omarion jawn when it drops. Homeboy better not be lying, you better not be done omarion. On a side note, ghost has my favorite video ever.
This is the face you make when you're scrolling through facebook and see that your ex-gf is dating a rapper. This is also the face you make when you look up for a second on the bus and notice that everyone's staring at your exposed penis.
Oh sh*t, goddamn. This motherf**ker is the truth right here. I guess the days of Toronto being a joke are officially long gone. You remember that?, when they were just wishing and hoping you'd mistake them for new york? Then again, it could've just been perspective, mine colored through montreal's bougie arrogance, trying to be Paris and all that. If I was eighteen, I'd recommend this to every girl I know, and then go on to be generally negligent of their feelings until I broke all their hearts. Sequentially, starting with the shortest and ending with the tallest. Something about hurting a tall girl is too sad for me. If you picture this beautiful giant head with a huge nose crying above the clouds you'll get it. The whole album is f**king dope by the way.
Skinny put me on to this track. I'm guessing homie's from dallas haha. I've never been to texas but I've always had the feeling it's my type of place. I mean we're talking downer drugs, scorching heat, chili, cacti, all that sh*t. Why don't more rappers throw distortion on their vocals? maybe some flanger or something, live a little.
Here it is, our second joint as DEEPHEAD! We had a lot of fun making this track. It kept us feeling nice and tropical in the unseasonably warm winter we got out here. Don't worry though, Music for Girls is mostly just a title and dudes can enjoy it too. It's f**king 2016 after all.
