as the world's biggest dj sammy fan i wish i could like this song more than do, but i support this trendlet wholeheartedly. (i am actually writing about mr. khalifa as i type.)

(ethan are you ever going to return my emails?)

i support the <i>idea</i> of this trendlet i should say. the actual results so far have left me kinda cold.

strongohulkington, Monday, 3 March 2008 17:13 (sixteen years ago) link

Dear Simon Reynolds,

Please do not use this as an excuse to write more articles about the synergy of your days taking Ecstasy in the 80s and modern rap music.

Thanks,

The World.

When "Sexyback" and T.I.'s "Why You Wanna" came out, I remember saying to a friend, "funny, it sounds like rap and r'n'b producers are drawing influences from 90's trance and house now..." So now it's become a full-on phenomenon?

Lil Jon's been making trance-hop for years.

Gavin, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 02:20 (sixteen years ago) link

I wouldn't say "trance-hop", per se, but rave-hop, definitely.

"Say Yeah" is growing on me, but I still reserve the right to be all grumpy and old-mannish about the sample.

I second the Twista-on-"Sandstorm" motion.

The Reverend, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 06:10 (sixteen years ago) link

say yeah is dope dude just give in

deej, Tuesday, 4 March 2008 06:15 (sixteen years ago) link

deej, Tuesday, 18 March 2008 13:12 (sixteen years ago) link

hah, depends how youdve hated it

r|t|c, Tuesday, 18 March 2008 13:25 (sixteen years ago) link

on the reals though none of the eurorap's ever really done it for me, same goes for dancehall's on-off flirtations with it over the last year or two. honestly don't think i've got anything ideological against it all per se, whats the fun in being that selfaware anyway though right

spose i can at least extend the courtesy of chalking it up to the crosscultural fetish whatever thing i put forward on the 'way i are' thread ages ago, since everything post-'drifter' like ballgreezy, grindmode and that young dro i do love wildly and unreservedly and wish other ppl did too but oh well nm

r|t|c, Tuesday, 18 March 2008 13:42 (sixteen years ago) link

should also say i got zero beef with the og alice deejay! but yknow BETTER OFF ALONE indeed nahmean

in the long run, being contrarian about this shit doesn't work, just to let you know

The Reverend, Tuesday, 18 March 2008 14:36 (sixteen years ago) link

I cant help but think that think though that this has been influenced by Uk scummers, the last few years have seen countless 15 yr old UK ravers mcing over this tunes, ive heard them loads of times on mobile phones on grim bus journeys through gullys

you have an active imagination

The Reverend, Tuesday, 18 March 2008 15:30 (sixteen years ago) link

i just thought it was the 'my love' stuttersynth, then the b.o.b song taking it and making more explicit

but even then that seems a little too strong for this partic wiz khalifa

unless he means the wiley, in which case yeah whatever probly
