"Don't Tell Em" in the top ten now

Still no album art or release date. Going out on a limb and predicting this isn't coming out in five days

"don't tell 'em" is a fucking smash, it's one of the biggest songs on pop radio rn and still increasing. also it's gonna chart high in the uk. how does jeremih manage to do this every few years

there isn't even a video for "Don't Tell Em"

Just checked with his publicist; she says the release date is TBA next week ("hopefully"). Says the album is in and everything. Would be interesting to hear the logic behind the marketing of this thing tho

i think the idea of them doing nothing to distract from "don't tell em" and then being like "bam here's the album" is interesting (if it works)

how'd they never shoot a video though

how many billboard top 10 songs since, like, 1990 don't have an official vide of any sort? can't be more than a dozen

Yeah it would be a cool experiment. Nothing they could do would make the song a bigger hit than it is now so why bother, I guess. They can promote the shit oh of some future single.

I don't watch or really like music videos so I don't mind that this song doesn't have one. (It's almost kind of refreshing coming on the heels of 2014, which saw critics write almost as much about videos as they did songs)

kind of refreshing to see that a song can smash without a video too, a video dropping seems to have so much more impact than the music dropping (cf "2 on" - that song had been around for MONTHS earlier this year, to little reaction, and then the video dropped and boom, everywhere)

pity it's not a better song but oh well

i've come around on this song a bit but i'm still hoping the album is full of old-school jeremih joints

'dont tell em' isn't bad exactly but it's kinda lame in the same way i feel about 'we dem boyz'

I know "Show Me" came first and you love it but imo "Don't Tell 'Em" has a better singer, a better rapper, a better hook, even a better interpolation

also way better, more propulsive beat

other than better rapper i dont really agree about any of those things! and 'dont tell em' feels like such a cheap conceptual bite, too

the house reference feels so much more forced ... like the 'show me' ref was about the beat too

weird this was such a slow burner, such a bit of fluff

"show me" is better but i always thought "don't tell em" was being underrated -- i think jeremih shines thru that song anyway once you can divorce it from "show me"/mustardwave in general

i've come around to "don't tell 'em" and rather like it now. maybe i'm just pleased to see that a song in 2014 has finally legitimately crossed over from being a big hit on hip-hop radio to becoming the same on pop.

"Don't Tell Em" is tied w/ "Rack City" for highest charting Mustard song, history will forget "Show Me," y'all lost

also i was never really bothered by "don't tell em"'s similarity to "show me" bcuz jeremih was originally supposed to have "show me" so i can't fault dude for trying to get his slice

but ppl like kev or whoever lamenting that "don't tell em" isn't jeremih enough shows the blind spots of auteur fetishization imo

Jeremih's voice is more valuable than his aesthetic -- he has deep cuts with a distinctive sensibility but when he makes a hit it's just a cool hit song with Jeremih's cool voice on it and the shape it takes doesn't really matter

imo denigrating "auteur fetishists" can be useful in a rockist context when people are putting britney spears down or whoever and there are some problematic racial/sexist implications, but me pining for the jeremih of old is hardly the same thing

i mean i just thought it was a lame song and preferred the kind of career jeremih used to have and his old style. i understand him having to hop on trends tho (and obv his career was built on biting dudes like the-dream anyway, so..)

but anyway i've come around on the song a bit, i think it's a respectable 6/10 joint, but it's obviously more of a mustard (who i'm ambivalent about) vehicle than a jeremih one. there's not a lot of technical or emotional range; it's a limited song

yeah it's fine but what stops me getting excited isn't so much where it fits into jeremih's career as where it fits into mustard's; it's a mustard vehicle that isn't even in the top tier of mustard 2014 singles

i don't think it's much to get excited about as a song itself but as an agent to get his album matriculating i feel pretty good about it

which perhaps is an objectionable way of looking at the song but such are the economic realities of popular r&b in 2014

Chart News ‏@chartnews 16s16 seconds ago
Billboard Hot 100: #6(+1) Don’t Tell ‘Em, @Jeremih Feat. @YG [16 weeks]. *new peak*

release the album

Nov. 11

And oh good J. Cole, French Montana and Flo Rida are on it

http://bit.ly/1tiIMOl

guest rappers being the worst thing about any R&B album just feels like a given now, i pretty much ignore them. either it's someone terrible or someone good phoning it in.

Jeremih in album delay shocker

MIH vs. #mylaugh

weird http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/6327425/jeremih-holding-back-his-career

This is straight out of an Onion article about Joe Biden:

Jeremih and his touring entourage are reportedly under investigation by police for causing $700 worth of damage to a Fuddrucker's restaurant in Billings, Mont., on Nov. 5. Police claim the singer's crew threw beer bottles when a manager intervened after a 17-year-old female employee complained about the group flirting with her. Charges haven't been filed, but a local radio station, KRSQ, is banning Jeremih's records. The singer didn't respond to Billboard's requests for comment after the accusations, but on Twitter he blamed the "unfortunate incident" on racism.

Not sure if I buy the "reclusive" angle—he's not, really—or that any of this rises that far beyond normal A&R disorganization. Interesting to learn he's probably to blame for not having a video though; lotta people wonder about that one

buried the lede here:

Late Nights, which the singer describes as "clatchet" -- that's classy ratchet --

Clatchet and Rank Too

http://www.ticketfly.com/event/950903-jeremih-new-york/
i am carefully excited

A couple publications are saying Late Nights is scheduled to come out Friday, but they aren't sourcing where they got that date from

when i saw he had released another single i was like "at this point i think that's enough singles to be an album"
