"Buy U A Drank" is terrible, the weak harmonies and barely there beat and a chorus that borrows from at least 3 different hits from the past year ("Money In The Bank," "Snap Ya Fingers" and "Zoom").
Al, I like the harmonies in it.

Sentiment is more just that T-Pain songs are usually good, whereas songs feat. t-pain are usually bad. Not meant to comment on guest spot quality.

don't fully agree, but he's definitely more consistent as a solo artist than as a for-hire hitmaker

aaaanyway, i love thr33 ringz a lot and i think shipley is tripping talking about what he does w/ his guests on the album. i mean the point of them is to be integrated into his "circus" right? none of the guests are outstanding (though i think many like ciara and chris brown are very good) but they don't have to be

yeah, i'm not saying the guests were really a problem on the album (Luda and CB and Kanye and lol Khaled are great on it and "Reality Show" is my favorite song), i just generally prefer the stuff with no guests on the first 2 albums.

the jay-z and kanye part of that doesn't scan to me but i'm sure he's right as it pertains to a bunch of other rappers

― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 22:35 (ten years ago) link
yeah, that part was pretty nonsensical considering Frank is on both Yeezus and MCHG (and "Oceans" is supposedly a WTT outtake but still, Jay put it on his new record).
i kinda get the impression that Frank is pointedly only collaborating with the biggest rappers out and the ones in his crew. he's the only new R&B singer in the last few years with a gold album, i'm sure if he wanted to hit the Trey Songz hook singer circuit there'd be more rappers saying yes than no to the offer to collaborate.
― scott c-word (some dude), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 22:45 (ten years ago) link
the bit from the (same?) recent interview about T-Pain getting invited to 808s & Heartbreak sessions and then getting mocked by Kanye for his ideas was crazy. i can't believe what it would take for a lyric or melody to be considered not good enough for that sloppy-ass album.
