Jan 15, 2015 GKMC w/o compton and real, and w/ collect calls, heart pt 3, and cartoons and cereal on it would be so f---ing good. smh
Jan 15, 2015 Not even a big Drake fan. just from 2013 to today. I'd listen to this over a lot of s---, including twisted fantasy 1. Tuscan Leather 2. Furthest Thing 3. 0-100/The Catch Up 4. Wu Tang Forever 5. Own it 6. From Time 7. Too Much 8. Days in the East 9. The Language 10. How Bout Now 11. 5 Am 12. Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music 2
Jan 15, 2015 The thing is, Compton & Real were needed sound-wise, they just weren't executed right.. but for the mood/context, they had to be there.
Jan 15, 2015 a tweaked version of collect calls could replace real aesthetically as well as thematically. The heart pt 3 could just as easily replace Compton as the closer. And Cartoons and cereal wouldn't fit, you're right - unless they took out like good kid/dying of thirst and made up for it with C&C in the middle there somewhere
Jan 15, 2015 Black Boy Fly as the closer My mama didn't raise me up to be jealous-hearted Like most of the winners call it Regardless of where you stay, hold your head and continue marching That's what she said but in my head I wanted to be like Jordan Award touring the country with money from mic recording The only way out the ghetto, you know the stereotype Shooting hoops or live on the stereo like top 40 And shortly, I got discouraged Like every time I walked to the corner had them guns bursting n-----, I was rehearsing in repetition the phrase That only one in a million will ever see better days Especially when the crime waves was bigger than tsunamis Break your boogie boards to pieces you just a typical homy All these n----s facetious and they all standing beside me They all'll buy me a chopper if any one of you try me What am I to do when every neighborhood is an obstacle When 2 n----s making it out had never sounded logical 3 n----s making it out, that's mission impossible So I never believed the type of performance that I could do I wasn't jealous cause of the talents they got I was terrified they'd be the last black boys to fly... Out of Compton Thank God... Black boy fly, watch that black boy fly The album would end with a more somber mood but it would still work.
Jan 15, 2015 Looking at this I just realized... Do you know how much better the first half of NWTS would've been if he'd replaced Own It with Girls Love Beyonce?
Jan 15, 2015 I mess wit own it cuz it's a continuation of wu tang forever. But you have a point. Could've just been one long song
Jan 15, 2015 I like Own It.. But it doesn't even touch Girls Love Beyonce. lol And I thought about possibly swapping out 305 with The Motion.. But I don't know if tonally that would work very well
