    This verse is great imo.

    Would fit an escape/action scene with a male and female from a movie perfectly.

    Wish the legend Starnizzy was still here to tell us why Stronger Than I Was is the correct choice

    I skip a lot of these on each album. Just curious which s-----y song rises to the top.

    Qualifications:

    - Song has to be a generic love song, so all his actual good stuff aimed at Kim doesn't qualify.
    - Song can't be a metaphor about drugs or the "game."
    - Major releases
    - Collabs disqualified like Love Game. Hooks don't count.

    For real, I consider Monster as his last huge hit, I don't think he had any radio songs after that :thinkinghmmm:

    And they still play it in radio a lot

    Disorderly Progress What's cookin?

    I'm sooo sick of the love songs.

    It's fine if it's authentic, or even just a song he comes up with because it genuinely jumps out to him. But it feels like he just makes these for their sake... like 'oh need this song for these people, this type of track, this one' etc.

    It's so formulaic the way he makes albums. For a long time.

    I wish he'd view albums as art rather than product. I know they are product but doesn't mean you have to follow a formula. It's still art - first.
