first off, sorry i don't have a link(or yousendit) for this track but...i have been absolutely going apeshit over the lil wayne track "shooter" off the new Carter 2 album (good lookin catchdubs). I love the production and lyrics...just fucking mind blowing. Anyway, played it for my dude, who also dug it, and dude comes back the next day and tells me that the production/singing in the song is none other than Robin Thicke?!?!?!now i know Thicke has put out decent stuff (?maybe?) before, but i NEVER would have expected dude to work with lil weezy in a ga-gillion years. Did anyone know that dude was really working his production into the hip-hop game, cuz that shit is so left field for me?again, sorry for not having the song link (only got it on a mix) but if you haven't heard it, i strongly suggest you check for that song. quality

    i had no idea who robin thicke was before this track but it is indeed very good. apparently weezy was a big fan of robin's and went from there.

    this track is nice because it isn't trying to sound like every other "hip-hop joint" out there


    i like the way it builds up into waynes verse

    Actually I've heard a lot of commercial rap albums that have alternative style cuts on em. Rhythm & Gangsta for example. Musically it's nice, just a little corny IMHO.

    Freaks of the Industry + Mass Appeal + Soprano's theme song + Pepsi commercial = this

















































    I keed - it's a little too clean for my taste but it's definitley different on the production tip. It's cool, just not for me.

    I'm afraid that I've got to agree--this and the grown and sexy tracks are the only cuts on the album that I skip.

    However, if the song--which I do think was a genuine attempt at something ambitious--is successful in introducing Wayne to a new audience, then I guess I'm not too mad.

    it's a way to play weezy for white people without completely alienating them. besides, doggie has some of his best lines on this track

    i am not ashamed to admit that that song is at least top 5 of the year for me...

    Not just white people--white people. Like fans of "festival rock"...

    I do like his verse, though.

    yeah that beat is crazy. the b-side to the original has a pretty nice beat too



    can we redirect this thread to how weezy got robbed by eminem and should be #1 on the billboard instead of him?

    I wasn't talking about the Thicke song, but the Bobby Valentino song from whence the "too dark to tan" line came; indeed, the thick song.

    Now the conceptual arc on that one - a work of serious focus and dedication!

    Who were all these people lined up to buy that album the first week?

    I mean, don't Eminem fans already have all of those tracks?

    They had to have the digipack?

    Oops... sonned by dudes with a superior knowledge of the Bobby Valentino catalog.

    I don't think I've even heard that.
