See whenever Corday is not putting up airball layups at festivals like DreamCon
he's actually doing what the fans love him for as far as dropping 81 points in the
booth because ladies and gentlemen Corday and Anderson Pack is back with another one
as if you don't know about R&P if you don't know about two tens these are the
previous collaborations between Coridan Anderson Pack that should have left you no worry as far as the
future release from these two that's now in the form of summer drop as this is just in line with
their past two collaborations in terms of quality because this is straightfire now getting into the
beat at first the break of the beat at the very beginning
had me thinking that it was a Neptune's produced beat.
To my surprise, and I have to give it up when credit is due.
Jermaine Cole is the one who produced this track Summer Drop,
and not going to lie, I think the beat carries its own weight
as far as the vibe of the entire track,
because when it starts off, Corday gets into his chorus,
and he gives up his half bar at the beginning,
and then Anderson Pack jumps in and then finishes off the chorus with his half.
It's not like a half bar, but the half of the chorus, the other half of the chorus.
So they basically share the weight when it comes to that.
But playing off of each other and also playing into the beat,
it's apparent that these two definitely know how to collaborate with one another
because sometimes you get two artists who are very similar in style.
So it just sounds like one person, but there's two names.
games on the track with corday and Anderson pack their styles are so unique and
different that an entire collaborative effort from these two would be phenomenal
hopefully that's the way that they have considered going because I think this
would be the best thing for both of them I'm not saying that Corday has fallen off
definitely not saying this impact is falling off but one of the things I was really
waiting for was the Silk Sonic 2 and ladies and gentlemen I don't know if you know
but Bruno Mars currently has the third most played song in the world.
So, yeah, as far as putting out another collaborative project,
he's probably not rushing anytime soon.
So I think for Anderson-Pack, Corday is the perfect alternative of Bruno Mars
to make a collaborative project with.
Now, do I think it'll be as highly acclimated or not acclimated,
highly critically acclaimed like the Silk Sonic album was?
Time will only tell because the type of tracks that they put out together,
talking about him and Corday is very, very high quality.
Top tier, just lyricism, chorus, bridge versus everything.
And to add along to that, you actually have a beat that's not only produced well,
but produced by a Grammy award winner himself and Germain.
And so that's the, that's the, I've hit my limit on the amount of praise I'm sending
Jermaine's way because of course we still know that man's a hip hop timeout so with that being said
considered summer drop is just the second single of corday is following the saturday mornings which
featured little way and was also fire which is shaping up to me to be one of the better hip hop albums
of 2024 now i did listen to big shan's entire album and i did tell y'all uh if you've listened
to my past segments about big shan he used to be my favorite rapist
until you stop putting out music right and then Drake took over and then from there it was just
nothing was the same pun intended so with that being said I think my opinion on big Sean's album
will have to wait because I do not want to disrespect one of my previous favorite artists and
as far as the quality of his music so after listening to his album I was just thinking to myself
well definitely not going to review this anytime soon so hopefully my opinion changes out on
the second third or fourth listen but it's funny how i'm praising germane because in the same light
big sean put out something i thought was very germane-esque as far as being complete nightquil music
but i said i wasn't going to give a review on big sean's album but y'all can probably uh get a
sentiment of what my review was based off that so anyways let's get back to high quality raps so um
corday corday anderson pack really really are phenomenal together and i just think it's a
parent that these two put out an album together, especially with the whole Bruno Mars and
this impact collaborative album not happening anytime soon. Since Bruno Mars is technically doing it
by himself right now, I mean, the track that he has, as far as the third most play track in the
world currently does have Lady Gaga on it. So, you know, that probably helps out a little bit.
And, you know, she is a part of the Joker movie. I think she's playing Harley Quinn. I think it's
lady gaga it may be somebody else is it lady gaga or you know i i get yeah i'm not going to say i get
i'm confused but let me make sure it's not another one i'm thinking about
because i think it is her but maybe somebody else okay so it is um yeah it is lady gaga okay
at first i was about to say madonna i was like yeah i don't think they're the same person
so anyways that's all i really have to say about their collaborative effort as far as corday
and Anderson Pack
the biggest thing I want to get at is just that
if you really had this amount of chemistry
with another talented musician
then a whole collaborative effort
has to come. R&P
210s, Summer Drop
and if you don't know what I'm talking about
let me pull this up. So R&P
is from his album
The Lost Boy, which came out in
2019, one of the better tracks off
that album. Two Tens
is a single in itself.
that came out January 25th,
2023.
That was fire in itself,
one of the better songs of last year.
And then to come out with this,
as far as summer drop in the summer,
well, technically towards the tail end of the summer,
and it still be one of the better tracks
that's been released this year,
I think is a testament to both
of these respective artists,
artistry and how serious they take the craft.
So, of course,
you probably already know Corday from other,
collaborations such as the late juice worlds track as far as doomsday from the lyrical lemonade album
which had an m&m sample i don't know if y'all know but that's very hard very hard to get that
cleared um in general so to get an m&m sample cleared and then i also have m&m hop on that same beat
on that same album i think it's just very significant and it just marks another yet a
another cosign for corday i mean little wayne m and m i mean at this point i know we talked about
jack harlowe and the way he got slaughtered by drake off of the uh the something freestyle i forget
what it was it was like the it was like a rodeo type thing that carlo let me see yeah so church hero
downs the way that this man just got completely slaughtered by drake on his own album
I would advise Corday to do the exact same thing because I think I think the outcome would be a little interesting.
I'm not saying that Corday outwraps Drake by any stretch of imagination,
but I think this version of Churchill Downs, if done by Corday,
would be a much better track, well, would be a better track considering Corday is a better lyricist than Jack Harlow.
I would like to see some type of cosign from the big three as far as a track like church church
hills downs where they go back and forth because of course corday kind of did that with little wayne
but we all know that little way is more of a legacy act we don't really compare him with the current
acts just because of what he's accomplished for decades but as far as the new age I would love to see
see him go up against a germane a kendrick a drake just lyrically back and forth and have a church hill downs type of
track i think i think that's something that um should happen and has to happen as far as the next step
in his uh creative process but as far as this specific track i mean i would be hard-pressive
to believe we actually get a corday and an anderson pack collaborative project only because
we already received a single and this is a second single so if this was the first single it made
me think like oh maybe they're putting out a collaborative album but this is this since this is the
second single and the first single was with little wayne i think both of these tracks is just going to
end up on his album that comes out whether this year and next year but would definitely end up being one
of the better hip-hop albums of 2024 um and already said that by one of the projects that i just
finished listening to and let's just say um i take back that but uh i take back that sentiment when
it comes to that project but you know big sean's album could grow on me and um
hopefully it does pause so with that being said uh click my link tree in my bio let me know my
click my link to my bio let me know in one of my social media is what do you think about core day
and anderson packs track uh summer down summer drop and also as far as his album which i don't
think i said the title yet but as far as this album the crossroads that's expected to be released
later this year do you think it would be the best hip-hop album of 2024
Thank you.
