She's going to ruin a classic :huhldup:


Looks like they replayed the sample from that snippet. Gettin "Players Anthem" vibes from that video too. with the private jet, cars and runway. Prestige of the Hitmen produced the original Jay joint, definitely had a Bad Boy sound on "Vol 1" album. There's also rumors there's a "Between the Sheets" sample in there too. I have no issues with rappers using the same sample but just be creative with it. Dave East and Young Chris did a good job flipping the Rae "Northstar" sample which was a Barry White sample. But they flipped it slightly different so I liked it. But it's clear she's modeling her track after the way Jay did it.

I kinda mess with it. Only one listen but they didn’t change the beat up much if any. Her tent writers worked their asses off lmao. I wonder how many times she punched in or had to re-do her verse, cause you can tell she’s concentrating VERY hard :russ:

I'm annoyed tbh. Covered a classic and stuck to it as much as possible yet the rapping still sounds sloppy to me.
Cause it sounds like she’s reading off a piece of paper while reciting the bars. You can clearly tell she didn’t write this lol.

Some records should just be left alone and imaginary players is one of em to me.

"Gloryhole....these bytches dont know who they fukking wit"

And

"My flop and your flop is not the same - if I flopped like you I'd hop out a plane"

She doesn't sound like this on her hits at least to me. To have a team curating everything including your lyrics and them not have you rap shyt again til it sounds right and good is crazy to me. What's the point of all those ppl if the product ain't perfect?
