I like the order of the verzus version better. It flows better to me

Calling my bluff is the car jam of the year.

He starts it out but when they low bass drops it’s fire.

I got two 12’s inch subs and I’m wearing this album out.
My son said “we going to listen to Pusha T otw to school and otw home everyday ” yes sir.

Wasn't feeling this. The beats sound so lazy compared to Daytona.

Think we definitely getting a clipse album pushas line about being solo for 10 years and sidestepping back into the duo and malice talking about putting the ring back on it and marrying it again hints at that hopefully entirely produced by Pharrell

which one though? With the Ye tracks first or the Pharrell tracks first?

 

[Da King]

Not as good as Daytona but that was 5 mics so you can’t blame him

surprisingly the track with Cudi might be the worst on the album

Let the smokers shine the coupesbrambleton
open air
Neck and wrist

I still haven’t read the production credits but I’m guessing Pharrel did smokers shine the coupes. I’ve listened through the album a 3-4 times but I’ve been stuck on half of the album including the above tracks and Diet Coke/hear me clearly so I still gotta give it more spins but it’s definitely got big bangers on here. Half of the album that I’m stuck on is pure fire now I gotta give attention to the other half.

Push!

Honestly the only thing I don't like isn't even on the album: it's Pusha's Scorsese comparison. He's made it a few times but no one has checked him on it. Scorsese is one of the greatest directors of all time and his RANGE is a major reason why. He's not just the gangster movie guy and that's not why people go see his movies. His arguable best films, Taxi Driver and Raging Bull, aren't gangster movies. He has classic comedy movies (King Of New York, After Hours), classic music movies (New York, New York), classic epic films (Last Temptation Of Christ) and a host of other classics from Cape Fear to Silence. He's one of the greatest directors ever and the diversity of his films is amazing.

Would I want to hear Pusha talk about life, the death of his parents, being a dad etc? Sure. While the lack of diversity certain hurts him in terms of how I'd view him all-time compared to greats, the music is dope and I think he should just say hey this is the shyt I'm interested in. If Scorsese was only interested in making gangster pictures that's what he would have done, but he didn't. If you're only interested in coke and luxury brags raps...just say it. There's nothing wrong with that if the music is dope!

I agree with this.

also the narrow range of this album and the production combined make this mid to me. Push is still dope (no pin intended) at what he does. I'm realizing it ain't for me no more.

[ineedsleep212]

It's honestly hard to believe Let The Smokers Shine the Coupes is produced by Pharrell.

for making that hard ass beat
