Thoughts? I like it a lot so far. It's gonna drop HARD in the club.

I didn't even know they were releasing some new music... Will download and post comments later.

I don't give a fuck... Another one of those songs that I will ignore in the club.

 

[hizzle?]

Yeah, I just gave it a listen and I don't like it.

I could see this getting play at clubs, but I expected more from them.

Was that auto-tune I heard?

I could see Kanye jumping on the remix, though.

Surprised you guys don't really dig this. I am loving it, the simplicity of it is mindblowing, half of the beat is literally just the drums.

I've been a fan of Will's production since day one and I have always found him to be on the cutting edge, truly an innovator.

^Yeah, that's why I was bummed that the beat was simple and they used auto-tune.

Simplicity = genius. Less = more.

For a further example, see Prince's 'Sign O' The Times' title track.

As for the auto-tune, I love it, when done right. Too many people do it wrong or don't have the right vocal tone to use it (Kanye).

BEP pull it off better than almost anyone IMO. And of course, it fits the style of the song.

I think the chorus lacks though. Boom Boom (Pow said in a weird way)...I mean come on, come up with something better.

Just Dance > Boom Boom Pow any day.

I like the refrain where Fergie goes "will i am drop the beat NOW!" and the arpeggio comes in......also will's bridge near the end "shitting on yall with the BOOM BOOM"

I don't like it. Too blah.
