I've underapreciated this trio for the longest time. The truth is, their beats were hard, their lyrics were either fun or told awesome stories, and all three of them had loud, powerful voices.
This track is no exception to any of that.
Beastie Boys goated.
Smooth, ghostly vocals make the calm instrumental sound less calm, and more chilling, as it leads into the emotionally sung chorus that plants goosebumps on your skin.
This song is so raw, but it has the catchiness and energy that blessed their later works.
Also, that chorus and those weird backing vocals are great and add atmosphere to the song.
Tom, this is awful, theres nothing going right for this song. The beat sucks, the lyrics are awful since he seems to think that mentioning his bad traits suddenly disables them, and overall I get no joy from this.
I, fortunately, had the privilege to sit with the flex boys and watch the premiere for this record, and I must say..I’m very impressed with you guys.
This went from music that is made to make your ears bleed, to music that you chuckle at and drop a few man tears with.
I’m proud of this label and I cannot wait for more.
An overall multi-layered and very catchy tune. One of the best on the album.
Honestly, this album is overhyped. I get the meme rap that Joji was going for, but it’s consistently unbearable throughout its run time. It’s not even really funny. I can enjoy pink guy’s self titled album because there is the jokes (while immature, is pretty funny) and the actual songs. He actually raps and sings on there, while here it’s just a hassle to get through.

"@Stargrinder I’m not minimizing it because I’ve talked at length about it before. no one cares anymore. I’ve learnt from that shit like I said. It doesn’t matter in general AND it doesn’t make me anywhere near as bad as Brad.
if my Temporary Jesus review was still up my case would be a little stronger
I said bad shit when I was younger. Yes. I’ve acknowledged all of that and learnt from it. I’m nowhere near as bad as Brad because me no abuse or cheat or harm anyone in a significant and long term way. got it?
idek who you are and you weren’t around when any of that happened so why do you seem to care more than anyone else? nobody cares about my “”””drama”””” anymore. I’m not even one of the bigger names on the site."

"@Stargrinder I had a whole review going over all that stuff that went down when the temporary jesus album page went down
is any of that really comparable to what Brad has done? I’ve learned from all that and it has had a minuscule impact on anyone’s lives. you know nothing about me. you think you have some gotcha moment on me when you bring up screenshots from 5-almost 6 years ago, when it’s just redundant and reductive at this point. I’m not sure where you’ve garnered such hatred for me despite me not remembering interacting with you at all, but it surely can’t be healthy what with you randomly going out of your way to unblock me and comment on an irrelevant review."

"@Stargrinder unblocked me to comment on my review unprompted. I must be festering in that thick skull of yours.
and I’m barely better than the guy who abused his girlfriend, cheated on her with strippers, gambled and took advantage of his fans because I say stupid shit on a music reviewing platform? Get real lmaooo"

"@claireisclarity I mean that’s valid, I will say I think he was far more likeable and down to earth in the old vids, and the “Reddit humor” is really not there either. more of a mainstay of his new low attention span jingling keys type videos
maybe I’m nostalgia blind as I found his channel so long ago and it brought me to this forsaken site but idk I like those old vids
also yes it is me the world renowned and drama-avoidant temporary jesús"

"but yes the site is a percentage better for sure."
On claire โ's review of Big Baller B - genre : bradboy
"His fall off (quality-wise. his fall off was destined to happen at some point) is when he pivoted to livestream content farming around mid 2022.
Those old videos (specifically like 2018-2020) show so much childlike wonder, naivety and actual interest even if it was an album he hated. That was eventually replaced with a cynical smarm and dismissiveness and self righteousness because he knew he’d get the bigger bucks if he acted like that.
I hate to give him praise nowadays, but I still enjoy watching those old tøp and my chem reviews, and thinking about what could have been had he not literally shot himself in the foot again and again and again."
