Otter Posted June 30, 2022 Posted June 30, 2022 (edited) The second verse should jump straight into the bridge The vocal harmonies at the end of the second verse should be brought forward to the end of the first. Essentially the radio edit should just have everything escalate quicker. To me its a still a fair critique that the first verse is too simplistic & repetitive production wise with most of the interesting stuff being saved for too late into the song.

Then it slows down again, well not really slows down but parts of the production are stripped, as the bridge comes to a close. Then it explodes again with Freedia’s ending. I do love the run before the 3rd verse tho. I need an official a cappella tho because I’m hearing new things with each listen Edited June 30, 2022 by Ari29

Ari29 Posted June 30, 2022 Posted June 30, 2022 10 minutes ago, Crimson18 said: it's a very much needed change of pace right there imo. So c**** The pace was just slowed during the pre-chorus prior to verse 3 starting. I think the second verse hits so much harder because Freedia has that post-chorus chant where the production is stripped down and it leads into the second verse so by the time the rap section comes in the pace, as well as production, picks up again it’s like the song has been re-energized…only to slow down immediately again. Don’t get me wrong, the build ups work so the song doesn’t feel as nearly as long as it really is, I just think my ears may be trained now for shorter length songs. The more I listen to it the more I don’t mind the first part of the 3rd verse, it’s just rn in this moment, it’s the part of the song I would personally edit out. Like someone else said the second verse going straight into the bridge with the added element of the choir would be perfect for me…but that’s my opinion after sitting with the song for just a week
