DJ Khaled - It Aint Over Til Its Over
Featuring: Mary J. Blige , Jadakiss , Fabolous
Producer: Infinity
Album: We The Best Forever
Label: WTB/CM/Universal Motown
Best known as a creator (and shouter-over) of raucous, star-studded street bangers, DJ Khaled recently branched out with I’m on One—a joint with a relatively understated vibe and, shockingly, minimal yelling. Turns out that less-hoarse endeavor wasn’t a fluke occurrence—like its predecessor, new single It Ain’t Over Till It’s Over confines the ad-libs to the first couple bars in the interest of cultivating a smoother vibe. Infinity handles production duties, mixing mid-tempo percussion, sizzling synths with delicate piano chords into a chill yet driving backdrop for the rhymes of guest emcees Fabolous and Jadakiss. The former teaches us a truncated spelling lesson on the opener (he only makes it through “F-A-B.”) while the latter closes proceedings on a gritty yet celebratory note: “Rockin’ on till the block is gone / The .38 is snub-nosed but the chopper’s long.” R&B giant Mary J. Blige completes the lineup, taking center stage on the middle 16 as well as contributing a monster hook. Digging it? There’s plenty more where this came from on Khaled’s fifth LP, We the Best Forever, scheduled to hit store shelves and online retailers July 19.

I'm not the biggest MJB fan, but this is solid. Nothing special.

This is a new direction for Khaled - in terms of the artist selection, production style, and overall sound - and I like it.

Khaled's album looks solid, usually they're a bit all over the place but the line-up looks like it might be a good listen. Although what exactly is it that he does?
This track isn't too bad, definitely has a throwback feel which you unfortunately don't hear too much in today's R&B. "I'm On One" is on point though. |

Whenever I see Dj Khaled all I think of is the echoing repeated stating of "Dj Khaled!!!" "We Da Best!!" and a bunch of remixes. This didn't fail to live up to the reputation as it starts out "Dj-D-D-D-Dj Khaled!" and it only goes downhill from there

The beat is nostalgic; makes me think of Touch Me Tease Me. That made me like it a pinch more.
Arrest me, but I almost don't NOT like it. Or I would if doing so wasn't a double negative. |

Khaled gets a lot of hate for making the same track over and over again but you can't deny that this is a step towards a different direction. I think this is a very catchy track that will get lots of club and radio play. It's decent fo sho
