GlassCastles Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Better guest appearance than before. It's probably my favorite guest vocalist on an official track. Quote
OfLefty Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Rakim and its a very great verse! Yeah.. it sounds okay, but I didn't want a collaboration. Quote
spraypaintninkpens Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) At least they went back to their roots, heavy with rapping. Couldn't stand the techno phase. Edited March 6, 2014 by spraypaintninkpens Quote
OfLefty Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I have an iPhone 5 and it lagged my phone to shit when the video was playing. It may not even work on oldish devices. I'm on an iPhone 4 and it plays perfectly fine for me. Quote

Astat Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Could've done without the additional vocals by whoever that was. Most legendary emcee to ever guest on an LP song, including Jay-Z. That said, my first two thoughts: 1. How are they going to play this live? Just completely cut Rakim's part out of the song? I hate this about collaborations with outside vocalists on studio albums, it either means you end up using playback of their vocals for live performances, which comes across as super lame, or you end up cutting big chunks out of songs, which is about equally lame. 2. Great, a guest rapper on a "regular LP album" single. Now people are going to think Mike quit the band again. Song is overall pretty cool, still not a big fan of the intro but once that piano part comes in, the rest all sounds good. I think the song could honestly just start with the piano and leave that first bit out, but that's just me. Production seems extremely raw...I know this is going to be a self-produced album, but this is bordering on "sounds like a rough demo recorded at a home studio" territory. Also, Chester doesn't really sound like...himself. Also, parts of this remind me a LOT of the Beta State song on LPU 13. Quote
Stranger Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I think the song is perfect. There's no reason why I should complain. Quote
Twiilite Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Absolutely fucking incredible. Heavy and dark as fuck. Quote
spraypaintninkpens Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 What this means: Mike's in his Fort Minor stage. Get ready, suckers. After this album it's happening. Quote

I would think that Mike would just sing that part live. Edited March 6, 2014 by dvon1539 Quote
LPsoldier0303 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I agree with Astat about chester. He sounds....off? and his scream isnt his normal scream its like a real scream? if that makes any sense. But fuck its good! Quote
lerkid Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) holy fuckin shit.... heavy like crazy I perfer mike on this song over Rakim Here's a KROQ interview with mike and Chester about the song: http://kroq.cbslocal.com/2014/03/05/interv...ame-feat-rakim/ Edited March 6, 2014 by lerkid Quote
LPsoldier0303 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Im not seeing an email from LPU about it =( Quote
GatorWP Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Quick feeling is I'm a fan of the song, but still not sure about Rakim's part, but I have a feeling it will grow on me with each play. Can't wait for the whole album! Quote
Stranger Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I'm sure if this is the lead single, probably there will be "Radio Edit" version which similar like "The Catalyst". Quote

It basically makes the song impossible to play live in full form. I doubt they'd bring him around the whole tour for this song (unless he did more with them) Quote

RiderSSPU Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Yeah.. it sounds okay, but I didn't want a collaboration.Im sure a lot of people didnt which is why they will complain. But you need to be open to it! Quote
lakersfan13 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Personally, I felt like Chester's voice felt a little shot like it does at some concerts. Also, I just didn't really like it. But I don't really believing in forming opinions on the first listen. We'll see if I grow to like it. Quote
