NE-YO v THE DREAM

haha this sounds sooooo butch -- it's like listening to the song being covered by antony

it's kind of hypnotizing tho

i love the "cuz you do it just how i like...UH". so awkward. the song is kinda awesome

kinda didnt realize i had this on for the last 6 minutes until it stopped and i realized i'd been sloooowly bobbing my head the whole time.

original still my fav dreamer song i think

i downloaded that purple kisses as mp3 and have been playing constantly

yeah ive been thinking about putting it on my ipod

the orig sounds WAY TOO FAST when you play it within a day or so of hearing the screwed vers

What I said at the grammys was "Men Lie,Women Lie,Numbers Dont!"

oh boy

beautiful cover

terrified

yo this is gooooood

like, really fucking good

it's like "i luv your girl" + "rockin that shit"

lol @ photoshopped jenny craig terius btw

some "luv songs" thrown in there too

i don't think terius' abdomen has looked like that since he was 12 years old

this song = http://web.mit.edu/ryangray/Public/Gnus/thumbs_up.jpg

not sure if i'm mentally ready for a run up to another terius album tbh

what up yall...

he's good

last album right?

k now im excited

this bears no resemblance to "hit it on the road," right?

luv the panning snare cadences

i like how it takes a while for the hook to drop.

this is Los, not Tricky, right? anyone else's ears sharp enough to discern?

jordan will know, and I'll be able to tell once I hear it. Making a stop home to put this on my ipod b4 gym!

hahah... and mr. nash answers my question with a Los call-out during the (great) outro.

plus, those distinctly-Los drums.

time for a few more listens. this is sounding great, tho! definitely hearing the "I Love Your Girl" sound. album lead-off?

"you should know me like that" line brings back his classic mariah demo track "they don't know me"

he has a really strong grasp of how to multitrack / harmonize over himself.

AAAAAH. Already? Jeez. Terius is the gift that keeps on giving. But he's got girls in Toronto (Electrik Red?) so it's all good.

lol @ "girls with weed / girls without it" or whatever

good track. so buoyant!

u dont know me like that

*stunts*

*like my daddy*

if love king is the final part of the love trilogy, what will play the role of the proverbial ewoks in this bia?

40 to 1 odds on lil boosie guest verse

lyrically, this = jay-z's "girls, girls, girls"

plies xxp

I got girls with weave, girls without it...she like "this all mine." "Hmmmmmmm I doubt it."

I got girls on the nouveau, girls on Patrone, girls on that Belvedere, pay me for the song <-- Blame It ref???

a girl outta college - sorry girls, but it ain't nothing like a smart bitch.

btw, Nuvo -- also Patron

i'm not sure what the "pay me for the song" stuff is about -- he might be saying that liquor companies are paying people? idk who knows

i don't think it's a shot at t-pain. imagine if tho...

whatever. shows how much i drink these days. i am too broke for jamie foxx-grade alcohol, j0rdan.

:D :D :D :D :D

i um...gotta dissent a bit here, not really feeling this quite as much as everyone else is. beat is nice, kinda standard "mr yeah"/"more than just friends"/"hard" bounce (drums are very Los but they both use that piano really similarly so it's kinda hard to tell) but nothing wrong with that. having a tougher time getting into the vocals, really hate when dream puts on that flat affect. it's not bad though, chorus is kinda lazy but it gets better toward the end

ok it's Los

I like the thing his voice does on the line "Got a girl that's shy-yyyy"

i don't think there's anything standard about "mr. yeah"! also it sounds nothing like "hard" -- it sounds patently like the-dream and i think that's great. compare it to like... "walkin on the moon" or something & i think it's way better.

like i think it sounds like TERIUSBOT in the best way -- he has a control of his sound & is working within it while flipping a few things -- it's a bit weird structurally for him & it's a totally hilarious song, i think it slots in nicely with "my love" & "rockin that shit" which were total sonic outliers as singles off lvm

but then again i like 'how to be a lady' more than mariah & don't think 'rockin that shit' is the pinnacle of his singles discog so ymmv

i didn't mean "standard" perjoratively, just that it's a style he's used a bunch of times before
