Ring the alarm
Jamie Foxx ft. Lil Wayne - "Number One"
Shit Just Blaze produced this year
Blaze also has a song on the new Jamie Foxx album no one cares about (including myself) and it's either completely bonkers and going to decimate radios and brains or it's an elaborate parody of rap production in 2008 (maybe both). The beat is basically the bass rumble from "A Milli" + the handclaps and fire alarm synth from "Single Ladies" + the ayyys and ooohhs from "Live Your Life." Then there's Jamie Foxx half-singing about winning Emmys (?) and making it rain and convertibles and having "swagger on a billi" and whatever else people rap about. To finish it up we get an AutoWayne verse prominently featuring the line "Baby if you're gay I can be your Marvin". The chorus has a synth or something that sounds like a hovering helicopter.
At first it sounds like the ugliest mess but eventually you feel like you're in the eye of a hurricane watching everything around you getting leveled. It's the antithesis of "Pop Champagne"'s am-I-even-trying? minimal genius and I expect it to turn the game upside down for a minute just the same, no Juelz Santana verse necessary.
Labels: jamie foxx lol, nyc

Juelz's verse wasn't necessary to Pop Champagne's success either. It's the worst part of the song, easily.
