slow ones where the delivery or words have to be good or you'll end up like that guy on Monster. I remembered the Drop the World chorus today, so I went back and that sparked this post. Both the song and the beat fall off pretty hard, but Wayne's first verse is exactly what I mean. In this case, slowing it down gives it a pensive feel. Breaking out italics for this one. I got ice in my veins, blood in my eyes Hate in my heart, love in my mind I seen nights full of pain, days of the same You keep the sunshine, save me the rain Could be cheesy, but Wayne sends it. As he does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQzA6XmF9uk Other songs come to mind like Drive Slow, but the beat carries the slow feel. Kanye's verses aren't that slow and doesn't really fit for me. Anyways, here's another. Chamillionaire & Paul Wall get slow on The Other Day. Here, slowing down makes big poo poo seem casual. Because for Chamillionaire and Paul Wall, big poo poo is casual. Slow down rookie take your time god ain't late Do your chores don't go to war with a rake I'm trying to soar to be great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMsyZav24hg Slow sounds sinister. I'm no expert, but I feel like slow is Snoop's whole thing, and he gets mean at the end of Drop It Like It's Hot. Cement shoes, now I'm on the move Your family's crying, now you on the news They can't find you, and now they miss you Must I remind you, I'm only here to twist you Pistol whip you, dip you, then flip you Then dance to the motherfucking music we Crip to But Pharrell takes the first verse, and imo does it better. A youtuber was surprised to learn the guy behind Happy did this one, and I agree it's fun to think about. I'm a nice dude, with some nice dreams See these ice cubes? See these Ice Creams? Eligible bachelor, million dollar boat That's whiter than what's spilling down your throat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SX8Mr0ZH5jE Post some slow ones.
