Big Sean - I Don't Think They Want It
Artist: Big Sean
Producer: No I.D.
Album: Finally Famous The Album
Label: G.O.O.D./Island Def Jam
With his debut studio album, at long last, headed for store shelves, G.O.O.D Music mainstay Big Sean is suddenly having second thoughts. Reasoning, “I Don’t Think They Want It,” the Motown repper has decided to push the project back another year to build up sufficient anticipation. Psych! I made that up. In reality, this cut (the final, mixed and mastered version of a record leaked to the ‘net last October) finds Sean as determined as ever to reach out and grab the success he so richly deserves. With the rolling, clattering percussion-synth grooves of Windy City heavyweight No I.D. as his canvas, the emcee exhibits an ironclad commitment to his hustle, along with with his usual bold-and-arrogant lyrical sensibility: “7-11, a n*gga keep rollin / I’m headed to the top b*tch and I don’t think you goin’.” Sean’s swag is impeccable, to be sure, but is this the kind of material that’ll send Big Sean to the top of the industry food chain? Debate away – and don’t forget to pick up your very own copy of Finally Famous The Album on June 21, when it makes its impact at store shelves and online retailers.

When Sean's album was being delayed my concern was that he'd eventually fold to the labels' demands and make their album (see Lupe). However, with cuts like this, its clear he had his way to an extent. Kudos.

Great...he has just become another less than mediocre "rapper" in my eyes, this is really weak
For him to win me back he's gonna need a miracle |

I'm seriously considering buying this album. This isn't the best track I've heard from Sean, but it sounds like it could be a nice intro track.

This is not an adult track, this is more bubblegum stuff for the kids to play. I've heard Sean do better...2.5

Not bad...not great either. Like I've said before, Big Sean needs to do something above and beyond everyone else...he needs to separate himself from the pack

Not bad. No I.D. did work on the beat, but it kind of overshadowed Big Sean. Is it just me or does the beat sound like it was intended for Ye?
