      I'm from Germany and I thought only americans like Kendrick could drop such gems, but guess I gotta do my homework and gotta check the UK scene, thought it was all just drill/grime but this shit hits deep. Especially how he manages to create a huge impact with just so few words per line, as if they are so carefully curated.
      Any other recommendations similiar to Dave?

    • @alexstone9099
      @alexstone9099 5 років тому +33

      Yep, I think it's somewhat because he isn't into the UK scene that much (at least for a couple of the songs) and the amount of references that he will have missed because he's not from the UK will likely take away from it but either way, it's really great to see Dave's popularity growing internationally and it's interesting to see what he thinks about it from a different perspective.

    I appreciate that your not just focusing on how talented Dave is, your also critical of him and I do agree with what you've said but the Lesley track I feel was almost perfect maybe discludeing the feature part at the end.
    The fact that it was 11 minutes is one of the reasons I enjoy it so much I think what he was doing was pure poetry and I love how it was more about conveying all of the message than abiding by a typical marketable song. I feel its tracks like this that set Dave apart, it's almost like another genre of music you dont need to enjoy rap to like this song.
    The other thing it's a real story so the fact that it's her best friend cheeting with her boyfriend isn't just make the audience feel emotional or for effect, it's what actually happened 16:20. I also think that knowing the back story and all about her makes it more emotionally gripping therefore more unsettling when the outcome is revealed.
    But besides this really like how you broke down all the song and gave your GENUINE opinion
    great video.
    Although 6/10 is very harsh
    I'd have said at least 8 this I was incredibly well constructed and lyrically i feel Dave is second to none.

    Just a note on Location, I saw you didn't like the beat. We have a huge wave over here at the moment of a thing called "Afroswing" or "UK Afrobeat" which is basically afrobeats being made my UK artists (with a lot of collabs from African artists), most of it has beats like that, it's definitely not the sort of thing Diplo would make! The guy featured on the track, Burnaboy, is from Nigeria so I'm assuming he felt it suitable to make that song with an afrobeat style.
    a few notable examples:
    Skepta & Wizkid - Energy
    NSG - Options
    Fredo - Ay Caramba

    Edit: okay I’m kinda dissatisfied with this review and there’s a lot of this he doesn’t understand but that’s understandable because he’s not been following dave properly. The love songs are linking in to the girl in how I met my ex so it’s kinda like a prequel to the song and Lesley is the sequel to it. He’s speaking to a therapist because since Dave was just starting secondary school his brothers were in prison, most notably the middle child Christopher going into jail for murder in 2010 and psychodrama is a way of therapy where they act out the events of their past, which is why he’s telling the whole story of Lesley. People in therapy often tell the full story from the very very beginning and it intensified our relationship with Lesley in a sense which increases the impact. These are all the things he’s felt over the last year specifically but more broadly things he’s been dealing with through all his life. Also the reoccurring piano is because he taught himself to play piano since he was young partially because his brothers were creative people too I think Chris played piano actually. There’s more to it but I don’t remember everything he critiques in it and I can’t defend everything really so 🤷🏽‍♂️ this is also some exposition since this is mainly an American audience in case anyone’s wondering some of the gaps in his knowledge of the context of the album.

His talent is amazing for his age and his maturity in his music is what appeals to me. I feel he has so much potential and can be a truly phenomenal rapper, I think for his debut album Psychodrama is a solid product.

      Wasnt implying that just that, you say he intentionally "made things worse by saying he slept with her best friend" he isnt trying to make things worse, thats real life. He mentions in a later track (Voices i believe) that this message is about his family memberss, i feel like the reason this song is soo long is due to the fact he has soo much emotion and meaning behind it he feels like he has to spare every last detail
