when the album first leaked i was just playing the tracks in random order and once i heard this beat i immediately knew it had to be hit boy

:dwillhuh:

Im a hitboy fan and idk what in this beat would give it away as a hithoy beat. Dude doesnt really have a signature sound (well does kinda, that nikkas in paris type melody & synth is in a couple of his other shyt)

Beat is nasty them horns mixed with the drum..."Knock-Knock" the way the drums relay the effect of knock knock :ohlawd:

well i knew hit boy had a beat on the album, and it didnt sound like a timbo, pharrell or swizzy beat so i guess you could say lucky guess:smugbiden:

Aiite imma let you off :obama:, funny how it's better than those ghost produced timbo beats

that catchy piano melody laid on top of secondary instrumentals (the horns) had me thinking it was hit boy, he tends to do that a lot like he did with game's "good, bad and ugly" (prolly my fave hit boy beat) and kelly rowland's "lay it on me."

but what sold me was the breakdown at the end which was very "nikkas in paris"-like...like i said i just used deductive reasoning, guessed it was him who made the beat and was right
