i'm surprised "9 piece" wasn't conceived as a KFC promotional tie-in

i like 'you the boss,' good hook. not into '9 piece' tho no

that said, "you the boss" def feels like a enters-into-the-lower-reaches-of-top-40 track if that -- certainly not the kind of song I'd expect to reach BMF levels of success or anything

i don't see Ross waiting until summer. I doubt they want to push Meek past next year

well, "BMF" didn't enter the top 40 at all. (xpost)

yeah, well, most rap radio tracks don't any more, right? i guess I'm thinking with a 2002 mindstate. what i mean is, 'you're the boss' feels pretty minor, but i do like it
― joey joe joe junior shabadoo, Tuesday, 13 December 2011 03:42 (twelve years ago) link
yeah "you the boss" feels about as uneventful as a record with ross AND minaj possibly could in 2011. i mean it's already a ten R&B record but yeah it doesn't feel like it's going to stick around and be a huge hit.

i mean you've mentioned about this much before but it does seem like Ross always just throws tons of singles at the wall, a couple stick, a bunch do ok, the rest disappear. in my exp. though, whether or not i'll like them can entirely depend. like, i doubt 'yacht club' charted well but that's one of his best singles imo
― joey joe joe junior shabadoo, Tuesday, 13 December 2011 03:52 (twelve years ago) link
he has a song called 'yacht club'? lol
but yeah he always just drops tons of songs and nobody cares how they do unless it's a big event like 'bmf' or whatever -- ties into my theory that he's nobody's favorite rapper but he may never have a major flop or backlash because even the people that like him and pretend he's a GREAT RAPPER don't actually expect much from him

I'm still bummed out that Ross and Birdman are no longer doing a duo album called Bald Eagles Fly High
― Mr. Stevenson #2, Tuesday, 13 December 2011 14:37 (twelve years ago) link
had no idea that was even a possibility. p funny title
