Y'all know big Sean sold about the same as he did with his first album right and that actually had hits on it. Big Sean just not as popular as y'all portray him to be

"Trap clown prince 2 Chainz and dick joke dispenser Big Sean are so outmatched on “Who I Am” that they hang back to play comic relief"

from Pitchfork's review (8.0)

I can't rock with this feature on every song shit. I'm from a different era. This album is ok on first listen. There hasn't been a rap album above a 7/10 to me this year.

aren't you like 22? the fuck you mean you're from a different era?

Why you keeping tabs on my birth certificate weirdo? How bout you stick to thinking about posters who haven't been on this site in years.

Let's see I'm from a different era because I grew up listening to better music than the shit that's out now.

uh you've posted your age on the site plenty of times dumbass. but you stay earnin the nickname butthurt_b

I'm not 22. I'm butthurt you responding to my posts like a funny boy. I'm from an era where you didn't have a feature on every fuckin song. I don't give a fuck what era you from.

So Pain has been out for a year now? I'm glad I don't listen to every track that comes out like that it would've ruined the album for me. Pain has the hardest fucking drums I heard on a track this year.

Same way I feel to. I didn't hear pain until I bought the album shit blew me away.

Push talking about using mases flow

"There's a record I got on the album with Kelly Rowland and I sort of wanted people to understand that I got a love for R&B too," Pusha explained in an interview. "People look at me like, 'Man, it's just street hip-hop raps.' And I'm like, man, do you know that Teddy Riley moved to Virginia Beach and ruled my whole life? I just thought he was the greatest person ever. I wanted people to know that so I went ahead and I took the Ma$e flow because that's something else people don't know and I did this sort of in the same vain as B.I.G. would rhyme as Too $hort." (NP

Pusha also acknowledged how learning about artists like B.I.G. being influenced by non-East Coast rappers inspired him to take more chances with his tunes.

"B.I.G. was like the greatest rapper to me," Pusha added. "I didn't know he liked Too $hort, man. When I heard [that], I was like, 'Too $hort? B.I.G.? What are y'all doing?' But it was amazing. That's what I was sort of just trying to get across the people with this album. I feel like My Name Is My Name, the title, it's all about me. The artwork, that's why the artwork is so stripped down. It was about minimalism because we're living off lyrics and beats and songs and that's what we're getting across. No filler." (NPR)

You were a teen during the ringtone rap era, tryna convince yo mama to buy you a bape hoodie and give you money to go to the teen club to get your grind on to "this is why im hot" with the girl from your science class.

You ain't from a different era bruh.

Y'all and day day lol y'all let his stannery cloud y'all judgement

 

[$ineedmoney$]

I just took time out to listen to Pusha's album......

......I mess wit' it..... B-)

 

[antarticp]

been bumpin mnimn since it dropped ... super fire ... that is until you get to his RnB influence lol this is where i think he should of called in his friend drake or some more help from kanye cause the song wit ross is good .. but he next few songs that follow the same tone isnt quite that good ... the joint with kelly rowland is dope imo but the hook is super wack especially @ high volumes and its just you a male in the car LOL gets a little akward lol ....

but i def fucks with the album cause he got some real hiip hop beats and real flow and lyrics on this joint .. even tho its alot of contradicting drug talk ... i can apprecate his metaphors and word play !! pusha is sick with it ... and his ear for hip hop production ... his ear for rnb production isnt quite there yet tho ....

 

[IceBergTaylor]

Y'all and day day lol y'all let his stannery cloud y'all judgement

Why cant I just legit not fuck with Big Sean? you sound like a lame dawg.

 

[CJ]

Still SMMFH @ who I am them 2 niggas ruined a banger Sean verse might be the worst shit I heard all year.

Nah y'all the lames with the excuses for the shit y'all dislike rapper for . Idc if you don't just like big Sean but niggas say stupid shit that don't be factual like monizzle

 

[Built 4 cuban linx]

Can't take that Rick Ross song serious. Kanye is just too annoying and this is coming from a 808s and heartbreak supporter

 

[BobOblah]

man I'll buy another copy if Pusha rerelease it with just him rapping verses on Who I Am

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Wooooooooo they said be all you can be
