I was gonna say this song was surprisingly fresh for something Pharrell got his hands on
Trap rap is like Gucci/ Waka/ old 2 Chainz and old Juicy J?
Cause (minus Gucci) all their stuff that wasn't pop was dope... 2 Chainz and Juicy J very much sold out.
So yeah I fully agree
It just sucks that all the true talent is what big labels and pop producers usually manage to convince to try appealing to larger audiences
It's like if college ball was actually just an amateur league that wasn't limited to college athletes. All the top tier players go to the NFL with the other talent, and they are still super talented, but the atmosphere of the game just isn't as appealing as it is in the Pro-Am leagues. All the people that make the league worth watching are sucked up in a couple years and a new class of young talent fills their spots, so you only get to enjoy watching a couple years of your favorite players careers. Everyone that stays is like the people who couldn't quite make the cut and stay on the verge of dopeness, never quite achieving it.
