Starting point is 00:00:00 Shepard, promise me you'll tell them to subscribe for free content. Now, before y'all say, this is the biggest, most anticipated album that we've ever dove into. Just know, Ice Man has not dropped yet. Is it okay, I got my dope on me? You know what I'm saying? Shepard. All right, my fault. Let's get to Kanye releasing Bully.
Starting point is 00:00:25 And I had to cut that short, because really, I just want to get into the track of Paisal Pluma, because that's just straight heat. I ain't gonna cap to you. I ain't gonna cap to you. Paisal Pluma, you know over here, if you're a long time connoisseur and notorious mass effect, you know we've been covering Paisal Pluma
Starting point is 00:00:38 since 2023, and that's just on the Red Circle. On the anchor, we've been covering Paisal Pluma, Tito Double Pee, you know, shout out to Double Pek records, Pulse. You guys, you know what I'm saying? See, that's the problem.
Starting point is 00:00:48 You know, shout out to Paisal Pluma because we've been covering him like a Kilo or Miley Cyrus to the point where I've already talked about how he has the 96, currently, let's just get into some current numbers. Currently has the 96 most played track with Dano with Tito Double P off of the album Dynastia that just came out.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Let's not even talk about how Dynastia is currently the 18th most played album in the world. And guess what, ladies and gentlemen? You want to know when that album came out? Dynastia came out December 20, uh, yeah, December 25th, 2025. But of course, the deluxe edition came out February 26, 2026th. So anyways, both of those bodies of work. Well, Dynastia, the original edition is on the, uh, uh, top 50 charts, but more specifically
Starting point is 00:01:33 is the 18th most play album in the world. Now, why am I saying all that? It's because Mr. West thought to himself, hold up now. If Drake can do it, so cannot. Is it okay? I got my dope on me. And as a huge Drake connoisseur, pause again.
Starting point is 00:01:48 Oh, my fault. Wrong drop. You guys. See, that's the problem. I just realized, that's my Kanye drop. When it comes to Drake, obviously you already know he has that track off of some sexy songs for you, which is probably my least favorite
Starting point is 00:02:01 off of the album, even though I think that album's a classic. see, I do think that album's a classic. So before y'all start to talk bad about the album, that's one of the greatest albums Drake has put out in a minute. Anyways, what was the track? The track with Chino Packis, meet your Padre.
Starting point is 00:02:15 That track, I'm not going to lie to you. It's not the greatest, man. I just, you know, I just don't like it, man. I just don't like it, but that's what I just said. I just don't like that shit. I just repeat what I say. So when it comes to some sexy songs for you, all the other tracks are fire.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Now, very interesting because, you know, in comparison, this is the complete opposite. outside of the track with Paiso Pluma, titled Last Breath. I think the rest of the album is straight trash. I'll give you a long list of the rappers that had to go get a job. Hey, it may be time for Kanye to wrap it up.
Starting point is 00:02:44 I got something that still works while about it out. Go get a job. Hey, Kanye. Go to Costco's, nigga. Kanye, man. You have to go to Costco. Go somewhere. Hey, Kanye, you may have to go to the supermarket
Starting point is 00:02:55 start selling some yeas out of the closet. Like, you may have to pull some real. I forget the guerrilla marketing. you may have to really start getting to it because, you know, right now it wasn't the greatest time to drop this type of album, my boy. This album ain't it, man.
Starting point is 00:03:11 You know, I just, it's just not it, man. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like, damn, look at the state of hip hop. Like, what's going on? So in comparison to Drake, that I think the Latin track was the worst off of the album. In the Kanye aspect,
Starting point is 00:03:24 this bully album, I think the best track off of that album is Last Breath with Pacea Pluma. That's the Latin track. So obviously, you know, There's going to people who disagree with me. But I just wanted to talk about my love for the track Last Breath. I think it's just straight up immaculate.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Like, it really feels like an anthem. I want to be surprised if this ends up being the most popular track off of the album. Obviously, you know, the masses is the cider of that. But for me, personally, it's my favorite. And I did like another track off of the album. So there's only two tracks I liked off of this album, by the way. This is a must. I like that track as well.
Starting point is 00:03:57 But when you look at the album in totality, it feels like bully. the greatest thing was the production and even that was rushed. You hear different mixes. I don't know what Kanye does as far as his creative process at the end of turning in an album because it's almost as if he's working on an essay
Starting point is 00:04:13 he will erase half the essay before the album about to come out and just just freestyle some stuff and then throw it out. That's how it feels as far as his lyrics, right? But when it comes to the production, it's always on point but of course the mixes, there's certain mixes where you could tell it was last minute as far as it being rushed.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Anyways, without the way, back to last breath. So I had to figure out, what in the world were they saying before the last court? Because if you don't know, I listen to all type of music, right? If you look at the, you know, shameless plug, at the very bottom of my link tree is what I'm listening to, you see a plethora of Latin musicians on there. So I'm not just talking.
Starting point is 00:04:46 I actually listen to these when I'm just out and about, you know, working out, things that nature. So usually, sonically, it has to be pleasing to me. You know, shout out to RDC. And after, you know, sonically, the melodies have to be pleasing and then I look into what they're actually saying and then depending on what they're saying I will resonate with the track a little bit more because obviously I don't know what they're saying at the beginning or the middle or the end of the
Starting point is 00:05:14 track you get the point so I had to figure out what he was saying so not the chorus of course but when Kanye and Paisal Pluma ended off their verses with okay you win babe you're right I had to know what they was saying before that I just thought they was getting their stuff off And guess what? I was definitely correct. As Kanye and Wes was saying, change your tone. Don't forget that I gave you everything.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Hold on, let me pull this up just so y'all can read along with me. Let me see. Verse one, yay. So here we go. Yeah. Verse one, yay. I'll put this on analytic dreams video
Starting point is 00:05:50 on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. We're not going to say too long on this, but I really like this song. So we got to do a lyric breakdown. So let me see. Can y'all read that? Anyways, change your tone. Don't forget,
Starting point is 00:06:04 let me tell you all. So it's the last paragraph. So it's this part right here and I'm reading off in case you all just want to re-along with me. I know I highlight the whole thing, but hey, I'm reading off this part. I know that's a terrible circle, but deal with it.
Starting point is 00:06:14 You know what I'm saying? I said deal with it. And we beat these folk. Woo-de-do. We beat them. We go forward. All right, anyways, let's keep going. So change the tone.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Don't forget that I gave you everything. Not going to stop for photos. When we alone, when we alone, you get crazy. all the nights that you cry being up at these hours with all the mess that you bring okay you win babe you're right and by you know first glance you probably thinking to yourself that don't rhyme well he's saying that Spanish so that's why I translated and of course that's why I'm saying they're getting their stuff off because Paiso Pluma did the same thing on his verse so verse three as you can see right here see as you can see right here um verse three
Starting point is 00:06:56 Paisal Pluma saying don't leave me alone if you know that I already gave you every They took a ton of photos of us. I know sometimes they say I'm crazy. All the nights that you cry awake at these hours. With all the mess that you bring, okay, you win. Babe, you're right. And I ain't gonna cap to you. In Spanish?
Starting point is 00:07:15 That sounds phenomenal. But I had to figure out what they was saying. God just knew they was getting their stuff off. So obviously, you know, they was going from the woman's perspective, which is what I was thinking. But, you know, that's why I like to dive into the lyrics in the English version. Because in the Spanish version, the way that paste a plume started off the track um i may get my latin carpool for this one but this is a specific anthem that starts off like that um i don't even know if i can replicate it but it's like it's like a party anthem
Starting point is 00:07:44 and i totally forget it's like uh yeah i won't be able to replicate it just off of memory but anyways the way that uh pacoa pluma starts off the uh the track it reminds me of another latin anthem that starts off like that done done done done done done like it's the best of pluma that's the best of um that's the best I ain't go, I can't care. That's all I could do, man. But then, you know what I'm saying? I was like,
Starting point is 00:08:05 I got the beer with me. So that's, that's what it reminds me of. I don't know if that brought up any other Latin tracks for you, but that type of energy at the start of a track, I was like, oh, this is a classic.
Starting point is 00:08:14 And then it kept going. Kanye came in with his verse, you know, rapping in Spanish, rapping in English, singing in Spanish, singing in English, Paisal Pluma, of course doing what he does,
Starting point is 00:08:23 just sliding all over the track, you know what I'm saying? Shepard. All right, my fault. Let me stop glazing. But basically, Paiso Pluma blessed Kanye West And guess what?
Starting point is 00:08:31 Was it the rest of the album like that? Of course not. But for that particular track, last breath, I thought OG Kanye West was back. Kind of crazy how that happened at the end of the album, too. I think that's going to be an anthem. If I'm wrong, hey. If I'm wrong,
Starting point is 00:08:46 at least I like it. I personally like the track. So with that being said, that's my coverage of Kanye, man. I'm not covering this album. 18 songs, 42 minutes at length. It's, it's, I don't want to call anything. thing from Kanye trash but hey I ain't go kept to you bro who is writing your bars like it honestly
Starting point is 00:09:03 I don't think it's the people who's writing his bars I think it's the way that Kanye's delivering it I honestly believe it may be time for Kanye to retire because if you're not just going to produce for other artists those beats under the creative mind of a Don Tolliver of a Drake of a who else Travis Scott hmm baby keen well probably not baby king because you you seen what he did with casino even though it's a solid album and you know now we was waiting for it basically Kanye west needs to turn you know he need to turn back into a producer you need to retire if you're going to retire anything retire the execution of the elocution because my brother is not you just can't do it anymore you guys it's over man see that's the problem i understand why conier
Starting point is 00:09:49 was using AI now like the he probably had the most fire riders in the writing camp writing for him he went into the studio trying to lay those bars down it was like no you got to hit the the double entendre at this beat. You got to hit it like this. Kanye getting the move completely messer, though. They're like, you know what, bro? Just put it out, bro. Just put it out, bro.
Starting point is 00:10:08 I can't write any better, man. If you ain't going to deliver it the way I wrote it, then, hey, you know what I'm saying? They probably got Royce to 5'9. He probably got all the type of black dot. You know what I'm saying? They're all in the studio. Like, bro, we can write it for him.
Starting point is 00:10:21 It's like taking a horse to the, but you can't make them drink it. Like, we can't deliver it for him. You know what I'm saying? It's probably why Kanye was trying to use AI. Anyways, this is not a bash Kanye segment. I'm just letting y'all know that I'm extremely disappointed with this album. I'm not going to go as far as to say I'm more disappointed in this album than the Jack Harlow album.
Starting point is 00:10:42 But it's close, man. Jack Harlow, Kanye, they let us down, man. They let nods down. So, that being said, click my link to you in my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about the Kanye West album? Am I bugging? Is Last Breath your favorite track off of the album?
Starting point is 00:10:54 Or if it's not, what is your favorite track off of a bully? And why? Thank you.
