Jan 22, 2026 at 6:01 AM nope. all we know jeff bass talked to jimmy iovine about this and jimmy told him to nevermind. but this is f---ing weird to me.
Jan 22, 2026 at 7:48 AM when did he say this? i’ve always thought this is a really fascinating verse. the lyrics and cadence are still relatively prime, but he slows down his delivery to match the beat but it doesn’t really work here and makes him sound slow or off. plus he’s starting to do that whatever you’d call it where the rhyming words all start to blur together as his delivery is significantly impaired by drugs exhaustion stress etc. it’s an interesting look at the transition between tes and encore. devastating, but interesting
Jan 22, 2026 at 8:33 AM The first time we saw that slowed down flow I think would be My Name with Xzibit.
Jan 22, 2026 at 9:10 AM I like Don't Push Me. The writing and flows are sloppy by his standards up to that point, but the emotional intensity in his delivery makes up for it all. Good stuff.
Jan 24, 2026 at 1:00 AM A while ago, I read somewhere that many of DJ Head’s drums weren’t actually credited, but they only listed Lose Yourself as an example (I knew it sounded like something he did). So we would have to use his sound to know every one he did. Superman seems like one that could be a Head beat.
Jan 24, 2026 at 3:48 AM There’s also no “Guitar” credit on Superman, which is kinda weird considering it’s driven by a little guitar lick the whole way through. Bass is only credited to keyboards and bass. The guitar sounds exactly like his style though.
Jan 24, 2026 at 9:43 AM of course it is jeff bass. they might have thought it is not necessary while he is already credited as additional producer. it might have something to do with royalties maybe.
