Rick Ross Apple Of My Eye Appreciation Thread

[JayBaldacci]

neg train?

The singing was bad and Unnecessary. Ross could have easily rapped a hook.

@BmoreGorilla add JayBaldacci breh

Got em. And while I'm here lemme say this is such a classy track. Raphael Saadiq was the perfect person for the hook

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Song is

A current college football player from U of Miami produced it which is kind of amazing.

Didn't know that. That's an NCAA violation

Do dudes really just not grasp how ill this dude is when he is rapping his ass off? Just giving game? Mind blowing pictures? Sharing experiences you can only relate to through the songs?

And knowing how to pick great production? Clear diction? The ability to modulate the flow and tones to reverberate beyond the lyrics?

Making shyt you wanna hear BEYOND the lyrics? To enjoy in the foreground and background?

When has Kendrick ever said anything this fly?

THIS IS WHY WE CRITICIZE KENDRICK AND HIS FANS.

Dude has NO punchlines

I'm not gonna lie.

I put this album on out of boredom cause Drink Champs had ended and I just wanted some new shyt to listen to on the drive to work.

And I don't even fukk with Ross like that. At all.

Needless to say, this song actually impressed the shyt out of me.

Listened to the whole album cause of it, thoroughly enjoyed it outside of one or two songs.

You've missed out on like 5 albums then.

Ross has been among the greats for the better half of a decade.

Nah, fukk that.

We need to put ya'll's feet to the goddamn fire with all this nut hugging.

Ya'll keep letting white critics and marketing campaigns dictate tastes instead of REAL FLAVOR AND REAL TALENT.

And I don't even "hate" kendrick...but the love he gets is NOT commensurate with his talent.

 

[xCivicx]

Yet another dope track from a dope artist

Ain't nobody paying mind to critics. I'll be the first one to say that he benefits from lack of competition. But he still makes great music and he's not doing it just for a check. I can appreciate that

This is what I'm talking about.

You could legit start 2-stepping to this shyt...OR...you sit and listen to the sheer fire in the verses.

 

[Freddie.Cane]

My favorite song on the album. I LOVE Raphael on that track

A Cane made that beat too str8 puting on for the :TheU2:

No lies
I'll just fall back, never turn back
Let it go, let it go
