it's a little long and repetitive but it's at least in the BPM range of a Missy song i'd want to listen to, unlike "WTF"

Going forward, I'm just going to watch the video with the sound off. Far better that way.

hot beat

sounds like it would be a really good production for a straight r&b song but nothing about it is grabbing me. Great video though.

her visuals are sooooo good

this song is so mediocre

lex pretend, Friday, 27 January 2017 15:25 (seven years ago) link

yeah this video is great and the song is doing absolutely nothing

there's really nothing to add here, everyone has already said it

yeah :(

video is awesome, beat is awesome, song is close enough to awesome that I'm fine rounding up and calling it awesome

I really like it

"i got food in my dining room" is a good fit for rap banality thread

Yeah, it feels like she's trying too hard to make something on-trend instead of something reflective of her artistic persona.

Visuals great, verses aren't bad I think but the hook is sooooo boring that it's hard to get motivated to listen to it again to where the details of what Missy is doing would actually sink in and stick with me.

Much improved version (in terms of interesting production): https://soundcloud.com/airmax97/missy-im-better-air-max-97-retread

imagine if Missy released that remix as the official version

Whiney G. Weingarten, Friday, 3 February 2017 19:25 (seven years ago) link

right? granted i wish that version had a little more space in it, but i would love for Missy to make a Yeezus-esque record with best producers from the edges of dance music.

Supposedly she was working with MikeQ a few years back

dig the original, remix loses the tension / restraint & scribbles all over the vocals

Listening to Supa Dupa Fly this afternoon (which came out 20 years ago!) and it still sounds so good, both the songs and the production. For all her great singles and songwriting, I don't think she ever made a better album -- but that's not a knock, it's just that I love SDF so much.

Good interview.

Who else have you been working with?

Timbaland, of course, and then the guy Lamb. I kinda keep my circle small because there’s not a lot of people who think crazy or weird like Missy. I’m sure there is, but I haven’t ran across ones that think weird like me. When it comes to working with outside producers, it’s very small.
