Big Sean - High Rise
Artist: Big Sean
Producer: Don Cannon
Album: Finally Famous (Vol. 3)
Label: G.O.O.D./Island Def Jam
Big Sean is a bull when he sees red. After a few behind-the-scenes stoppages since Finally Famous Vol. 2, the Detroit rhyme-spitter is finally back with Volume 3 of his now famous series (out this summer), which will do double duty as a warm up to his long-awaited debut album. The usually personable and fun emcee uses lead leak High Rise to spazz out on some of his detractors; over a menacing Don Cannon instrumental, the G.O.O.D. Music prodigy does lyrical donuts around lesser emcees. In typical Big Sean fashion, Ye’s protégé throws out more punches than Mayweather combined with the creativity of Alexander McQueen: “Isn’t it ironic that I’m sitting in a big body/ paranoid, because every rapper named Big got bodied/ and my chick got bodied, but she sitting in the back because my nigga called shotty.” I don’t know who set Sean off, but I would like to personally thank them for giving us what sounds like a reincarnated version of a much larger emcee with “Big” in his name. Expect more from Finally Famous (Volume 3) very soon.

Sean can unleash creative bar after creative for days. With Don Cannon in his corner on this one, we have a winner at the final bell.

Nice horns on the beat. This beat sounds familiar though. Big Sean was nice with his flow and wordplay.

This song goes hard and it's so creative while at it. Finally a fresh song to bump in my ride. Don Cannon's production is so classic and fits his style too. BIG SEAN!!! Doing big thangs. Always been a fan. I can't wait for this mixtape.

don cannon is streaking into my favourite producers list after all his work with laws and now this. big sean goes so easily with the beat, he owns it and is just on a roll at the moment, itll take quite a bit to stop him now.

Big Sean's one of those rappers that have an intensely loyal following, and while I can't say I'm a full-fledged member of the Big Sean army, I am a fan, and tracks like High Rise are why. I can't wait for the man to finally, officially get on. I've got a feeling big things are in his future.

I really enjoy his rhymes... His voice is smoothe, makes me want to listen more. He seems real, not talkin' about what he WISHES he had, but reality. Props.

I swear I've heard this exact same production somewhere but I can't think of the same song. Either way, Big Sean is pretty solid with the lyrics.

If this is any indication of the quality of "Finally Famous [Vol. 3]", I'm genuinely exited. Sick Instrumental. Plays Again.

Production was on point. Just not a fan of Big Sean for some reason. I'm still bored like DJ Booth Member KTF said he used to be. I'm still sleep on this. I'll give Big Sean 2 - Stars, and the beat 4 - Stars. Overall 3 stars.

Dam, Im def feelin this track. Production is so smooth & Big Sean drops some swagger filled rhymes with a very dope flow. This is probably my favorite track to be featured on DJBooth this week.

Cannon, is a force to be reckoned with. He gets better with each beat. Sean does well. Not really a fan, but this one goes.

"My whole team gettin cash I jus call it gang green." Wit lines like this, this guy is signed to the right label. He is good, no pun intended, but he is really good...nice, nice word play....I gotta listen again to process it all. Now... where is the DJ screamin over the hook? |
