I don’t even think it failed as I know a bunch of fans who like the song.


But then again i’m not a fan of Blunt Ashes so everything is subjective

This is the first bad take I’ve seen from you breh, I almost can’t believe it lol, Blunt Ashes is one of the best tracks on the whole album for me, I guess you allowed to have a bad opinion from time to time:russ:

Nah I agree with him. I love the lyrics and the concept, but it's just way too slow to work imo. I feel like I would love it if it had the same beat just a faster tempo.

As the blunt ash falls into the ash tray
I could see my whole life fly past me
Did I? Did I keep it gangsta or keep it classy?
And will the money and fame outlast me?
The blunts ash falls down in the ashtray
Well, I see my whole life fly past me
I'm asking, did I keep it gangsta or keep it classy?
Did I? Anything else you wanna know, just ask me

:ahh:


This shyt is a classic :ufdup:

As an avid cannabis consumer, I cannot overlook the low key gem that is Blunt Ashes. :ahh: I was in high school getting into smoking with songs like Purple, Blunt Ashes, etc.

Still Dreaming (song doesn’t hit the same today due to Ye)
Blunt Ashes
Hold Down the Block
Play on Playa
Can’t forget about you
Hope (OG version)
Where Y’all At

Are all hidden gems from that project to me at least.

"Blunt Ashes" was a dope concept, but I always hated that the flow was inconsistent. Conceptually and creatively, it was TV ONE'S Unsung before Unsung. Artists he named in that song were featured in the first season of Unsung from Phyllis Hyman to Donny Hathaway to Florence Ballard.
