Busta Rhymes - Why Stop Now
Featuring: Chris Brown
Producer: Sak Pase (of The Jugganauts)
Album: E.L.E. (Extinction Level Event) 2: End Of The World
Label: Conglomerate/YMCMB
“Don’t be evil,” certainly has a nice ring to it, but Google is no longer the scrappy, idealistic startup it was back in 1998. With its current stature, and its knack for expanding operations to fill every conceivable gap in the market (often leaving heavyweight competition in the dust), a more accurate slogan might be: “Why Stop Now? I can have everything!” They’ve even got the perfect spokesperson in Busta Rhymes, who celebrates yesterday’s launch of iTunes challenger Google Music with the release of his latest single. The Jugganauts’ Sak Pase produces, crafting a minimal, percussion-driven groove which Busta proceeds to lace with characteristically dizzying rhymes about his unstoppable drive to stack that paper. In between the veteran emcee’s acquisitive verses, R&B megastar Chris Brown steps up to the mic for a chanted chorus (no singing or flowed bars from Breezy, unfortunately). Think Bus-A-Bus and the search engine giant are a match made in heaven? Then I’ve got good news: while the rapper’s ninth LP, E.L.E. (Extinction Level Event) 2: End of the World, has yet to receive a drop date, it has been confirmed the project will be available for purchase via—you guessed it—Google Music.

"Why Stop Now" is a manufactured, mainstream-ready record that I think the old Busta would have laughed at. But these times are a changing and so are the artists who want more years out of their careers.
Sidenote - If Busta called it a day right now, he would have nothing to be ashamed of. |

Busta is so underrated. His flow is incredible. Name another rapper from 20+ years ago that can still do this good on the mic? Anyway, this beat is pretty cool. Was expecting a little more from Breezy on the chorus.

Its definately mainstream ready. Looks like Busta is going for the success that Look At Me Now had.

Busta really has a dope flow on this track, I just can't take him seriously anymore as a YMCMB artist.

Man Busta, you poured your fastest rhymes and charisma onto this, pity the beat was average and Breezy sucked.

It's not selling out if it sounds good. Not as good as Look at Me Now, but I wouldn't expect another track like that for a while.

Decent club banger, Busta still has the incredible flow, beat was cool, hook was aight. Just didn't hit me as anything too spectacular, just another example that Busta's flow is untouchable.

I like Breezy but, wtf, he's hook was nasty. He clearly can't do everything.
Busta pulled this through himself deservedly he shows he needs no intro. (I think that's what Chris was doing). If Chris held a flow or better hook like his rep in Look at Me Now then it would be brill. The production alone was great for me |

Busta is milking it with his fast flow. And so he should, its awesome! I still think Break Ya Neck is a classic that showcased this flow the best.
This is kind of a replica of Look At Me Now..just not as strong of a record. |
