Well someone has been working overtime. Big Sean has had a good couple of weeks.
First kudos to his new relationship with Ariana Grande. His new Adidas are coming to fruition. He just signed to the Roc Nation family. And Friday (Sept 12), Sean dropped 4 new tracks.
The first track, “Paradise,” is produced by Mike WiLL Made-It and plays like a slower variation of his beat for Future’s “Move That Dope.” Following suit is “JIT/Juke,” “4th Quarter” and “I Don’t F*ck With You.”
“I Don’t F*ck With You” has an all-star credit list, with contributions from West, DJ Mustard and DJ Dahi (who produced Kendrick Lamar’s “Money Trees” and Drake’s “Worst Behavior”). A soul sample kicks off and closes the track, but not before DJ Mustard drops production in the vein of TeeFLii’s “24 Hours.”
As the sound changes, so does Big Sean’s mood. Initially he’s upset with an ex-girlfriend: “I heard you got a new man, I see you taking a pic/ Then you post it up thinking that it’s making me sick.” He then switches to focus on the future: “I got a new chick that I gotta thank God for.” (So, that would be Ariana Grande, right?)
Big Sean is currently working on the follow-up to 2013’s Hall of Fame. Enjoy!
