Big Sean, continues the momentum for the most buzzed about music topic this week, his third full-length album Dark Sky Paradise, by previewing possibly the most anticipated collaboration on the whole album -- his track with Drake titled "Blessings." Produced by Boi-1da and Vinylz, the producing pair provide a haunting framework for Big Sean and Drake to deliver their poised and precise rhymes.
Big Sean comes out of the gate firing at everyone who has gotten in his way, people who have talked behind his back and even old girlfriends, letting them know their mistake and what he has in store without them.
Drake lays down the chorus, celebrating the good times ahead, singing, "I'm way up I feel blessed," before launching into is own verse. Just in time for the Grammy's, the Toronto rapper fires his shots at the committee, I could give two f--ks bout' where the Grammy's go / I just gave out Grammy's on my Instagram," referencing the "Hood Grammys" he gave out last year.
Sean gets personal in his last verse referencing his recently deceased grandmother and new burden he now feels in the family. "My grandma just died I'm the man of the house/So every mornin' I'm up cause I can't let them down."
As a part of the big reveal, artists like Kanye West, Travi$ Scott, DJ Mustard and E-40 all partook in the Dark Sky Paradise Instagram posting bonanza. The album appears to be stacked with talent and from what we are hearing in "Blessings," Big Sean in possibly in his best form yet. If this is what the rest of the album is going to sound like, then the hip-hop community has been put on notice because Big Sean is here to claim 2015.
