If you’ve heard anything Clipse-related over the past four years (in particular, their sophomore album Hell Hath No Fury), you already know about their dissatisfaction with former distribution home Jive.  After being released from their contract in May of last year, however, the duo has since signed with Columbia and is anxiously awaiting their next move.  On this potential new single, Fast Life, listeners will be brought back to the positive vibes of their debut, Lord Willin’Scott Storch‘s signature keyboard n’ string combination is perfectly in sync with Malice and Pusha T, proving that the Clipse can hold their own without Pharrell and Chad behind the boards.  The group’s forthcoming Re-Up Gang compilation, We Got It 4 Cheap: The Mixtape, is currently set for release this August.

Scott Storch went HARRRDDDD. This is one of the those summer street records that you can jam with your top down and the speakers on blast. I believe Clipse's last album was highly disregarded and "We Got It For Cheap" should make up for their lost exposure. It's great seeing Malice and Pusha T doing their own thing without The Neptunes and it's going to even better with Ab-Liva and Sandman on board.

this is pretty tight. i like the flow, beat is nice. Storch did a real good job on this one; it's a good song to listen to in your car during the hot summer.

Scott came stronger than usual on this one, but I'm still not sold. He needs to switch his @*#$! to live music. I think he would flurish with a live orchastra. Clipse back! They usually bring the goods. They the COKE RAPPERS! This is cool, not a banger but somethin to keep the crowd movin.

This is ok but not great at all. Scott Storch to me actually to me made a very average beat on this song that I did not feel. He is overated as a music producer.

Matthew101, I need to check back with them, because it sounds like you bought (and tried) some of what they used to sell! This is a BANGER...If I were a network doing football coverage, I'd use the instrumental to assist with my theme (doesn't it sound like something they'd do)...Good to see that they still flow great even when the Neptunes aren't making the beats!

I would of preferred a Neptune beat for Clipse. If it works, keep it. I don't know if it's because I'm tired but I am not feeling this song. Delivery is not fresh.

Wow- very surprised to hear this kind of song with Clipse spitting on. I agree that they sound better with Pharrell, but this song is a sole exception. This beat is fire and Clipse flow so perfectly on it! I miss the old Clipse because their 2nd album was not hot at all, hopefully this shows that they can expand and work with other producers. This right here is a huge BANGER that will blow up if they get promoted and marketed, unlike they hav in the past.

They spit on here yes and their flow is tight. But the beat...nah the beat has to go. I think the Neptunes beats always brought out the feel of Clipse. Their albums have been hot along with their We Got it 4 Cheap Volumes. But sorry not feeling this

The beat is hot but it doesn't help the song to be less boring... Pity because when it started I was sure I would have liked this, hearing the super beat...but I don't, it's repetitive

I usually don't like Scott Storch's production, but this is definitely hot for him. He came correct. Clipse has been in my peripheral view for a while. They came hot lyrically and flow-wise on this. I will say the chorus could've been a bit better. As you get towards the middle of the song, I do agree with Patty, it gets a bit boring. I'll throw it in rotation though. You should peep "Do What U Do (Remix) with Malice & my boy Drake. He smashes that track.

Matt, don't take it personally, Burmy is a writer and was simply trying an inventive way of turning your statement around, not trying to put you down.

Plus, This song is no banger Burmy haha

Real different for The Clipse, but great nonetheless. I really enjoyed this song the other day ridin' in my car. With the sun up and the bass high, this is the sh*t. I speak for many when I say... I look forward to the new album.

im feeling this, the beat could have had a little more to it, but I think malice and pusha kill it, so its a banger for me.

DJSpaz is right, I just wanted to come up with the counterpoint. I'm not intending to attack Matthew101, and I'm sorry my statement offended him and made him think I was.

Scott did a nice job on this track. Don't know how well it will do at radio. Somethin different from Clipse. Reminds me of "love you girl ft. Faith". Has that type of message.
