Fall Out Boy - Tiffany Blews ft. Lil Wayne
Artist: Fall Out Boy
Featuring: Lil Wayne
Producer: Patrick Stump, Peter Wentz, Neal Avron
Album: Folie à Deux
Label: Island/Decaydance
Next Tuesday, pop-punk band Fall Out Boy will release their brand new album, Folie à Deux. Although the Wilmette, Illinois quartet isn’t very hip-hop (‘isn’t’ meaning ‘not at all’), their forthcoming project features a collaboration with the biggest rock star in music today, Lil Wayne; on the heels of receiving eight Grammy nominations, Weezy joins Patrick Stump, Peter Wentz, and the rest of the fellas for guitar-driven album cut Tiffany Blews. While many of the New Orleans native’s successful collaborations have been carried by his out-of-this-world rapping skills, Tiffany Blews showcases Wayne’s semi-robotic singing on the song’s third verse. Hey, if Kanye can do it, why can’t Wayne?

umm if the chrous was a little more addicting or had clearer verses like the other rock song, "Let it Rock" with wayne in it, we would have been talking business... but this is really not that bad!

Dang..Lil Wayne on everything right now. He even getting on a feature w/ a rock/emo band. This isnt really a mix of hip-hop and rock because it sounds straight rock with Weezy saying a few lines. You can hardly tell its Weezy though cuz he on some vocoder thing. I listen to a lot of genres so I'm definitely feeling this on a alternative/rock standpoint. The production is great and the guitar and lyrics are solid. Weezy doesnt upgrade the song but he doesnt make the song worse either. Solid track..I been puttin this on repeat a lot recently. Big ups to Fall Out Boy..wouldnt of never expected dem on DJBooth

Yeah! Fall Out Boy on DJBooth.net! Be prepared to see countless "1 - Garbage" ratings just because people can't appreciate other genres of music! Lil Wayne, first no verse during the CMAs and now this? And Kanye thought he was the voice of this generation...Lil Wayne doesn't need a voice!

Not gonna lie, I listened to the first minute of this and went straight to Weezy's verse. What I'm saying is - I DON'T care too much Fall Out Boy at all, and I was just interested to hear what the rock star Weezy had to say, even though his contribution was easily forgettable.
I love how Wayne is goin through this rock phase and he jumped on this to appeal to the rock genre, but he already appeals to most of the people that listen to Fall Out Boy already (15-20 year olds that listen to pop radio). He didn't need to do a song with FOB for that. I'll pass on this one, but A for effort (or something like that?). |

production on the lil wayne verse is outstanding, fits right with FOB's high tempo music. people need to branch out and appreciate other music outside of the hip-hop community. how much can u listen to people talk about makin paper, drivin fancy cars, sleepin with ho's, and bustin caps in peoples asses? (not all hip-hop but a majority)

was that seriously waynes verse?? or am i missing something? i'm open to all genres do to the fact that it seems like i get in arguments with everyone because i listen to music without "real" intruments but this is not very good i cant make out one word of what he actually says it was really weak on his half and i LOVE wayne. I can get down with FOB on the booth more the good char but this is BAD

WTF i can't belive that was Weezy's verse, didn't sound like him and i couldn't hear half of what he said. Not a real fan of the rock genre but this song ain't that bad.

Ima be honest...rock and rap can go together a little too well..but seeing how this song is pretty much straight rock, well...i guess that leaves Reese without the peanut butter...but anyway, from a hip-hop stand-point...obviously this is almost crap...Lil'Wayne just spat whatever rock works, not realy a collab like numb/encore or We made it with linkin park and busta rhymes which really knows how to put the two opposites together...so ya, i would honestly put this as a 2 or one for hip hop..but anyway, im not a rock hater and im usually open to rock...as a song..i gotta say the chorus is pretty catchy...im not going to lie, i wasnt really paying attention to the lyrics...but the chorus was nice..lil' wayne kept the verse pretty well and i guess he kept to his rock side and didnt step a foot over to the hip-hop side...but for me, thats fine..like i said, i am open to rock...so ya...i say 4, really nice track in general...
BTW...for all you hard core hip-hope fans who doesnt care bout rock..please just don't bother rating..like, if your going to rate the song garbage because its rock, then there's a problem with that..even though djbooth is all about rap and r&b, lil' wayne is on this track, and he came on it with rock in his mind...so its a rock track...don't rate if you don't like rock in general..and WorldsFamous0...you snapped... |

oo ya..one thing...to be honest, i was shocked that lil' wayne relied soo heavily on his vocoder to bring his verse across...i can't tell its him without id3 tags on the songs..but o well...

Only closed minded music fans (I can't even really call you that if you aren't really a "fan" of "music") would give this one star or something. I love this stuff. Fall Out Boy has been awesome ever since DANCE/DANCE. I was on them way before Kanye ever got with them. To others who don't like this stuff, I guess you're just missing out. WorldsFamous0, that was a completely ignorant comment from you about wrist cutting and stuff. That's why it's so much problems in the world...because people don't understand things that are different and they choose to ridicule it. Great song. I liked Weezy's part. Stop always expecting the same thing. It's like, when people keep doing the same thing...people complain. BUT THEN, when someone does something different...they still complain! It's like a freakin' lose lose here! WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT! SHEESH! 4 stars. Fall Out Boy is that deal. That's just my two cents and then some.

This song is GREAT! It doesn’t matter how “not-like-the-usual-or-ThaCarterII-type-of-Wayne” it was… he was a feature, not suppose to outshine: they did it the way they wanted! That’s the problem in the hip hop scene, we are prone to appreciate the musicians above the music, and it’s THE MUSIC that matters most and will stay long after the artists!
And the music in this case had great vocals, creative atypical melody (lots of cuts/stop between different tones on verses, plus the bonus of a pre-chorus), great unpredictable drumming, amazing guitar/bass combined and all the “swagger” lame rappers only dream to have! And the lyrics?! If you don’t mind Z, I’ll put the lyrics on this, is that ok? I mean, for a single verse, I think Lil Wayne said a lot and captured the band’s name, mood and song theme all at once. |

i can see the arguement on this& im not trying to ruffle anyones feathers. this simply isnt "classic". i listen to cold play, gorillaz, linkin park,disturbed, korn, S.O.A.D., nirvana ect. so you cant say im not open minded. (not a shot a MH im just sayin) i branched out to this and i completely agree with FredRico wayne captured the mood..but just because im a hardcore hip-hop fan doesnt mean i gave it a low rating because its not about swag or money. this just didnt blow my mind like i was hoping it would. -mr.lame

Lyrics:
I'm not a crybaby I'm the crybaby A caterpillar that got stuck Mr. moth come quick with any luck A long walk to a dark house A Roman candle heart keep us far apart I got your body doing alright hate me baby maybe I’m a piece of art my friends all lie and say they only want the best wishes for me Oh, 3 2 1 We go live... Ohh baby you're a classic like a little black dress you're a faded moon stuck on a little hot mess (little hot mess) and ohh baby you're a classic like a little black dress but you'll be faded soon stuck on a little hot mess (little hot mess) I can make your heart slow I can feel the weather in my bones We're starting off I could turn it to what I like your pupils big rolling like dice they say they only want the best wishes for me (they only want the best for me) Oh, 3 2 1 We go live... (Chorus) Not the boy I was before I am is just venting, venting Dear gravity, you've held me down in this starless city No, not the boy I was before I am is just venting, venting Dear gravity, you've held me down in this starless city (I wish the majority of rappers could come up with lyrics as good as FOB’s, but we all know there’s a few league of lyricists in rap today) |

(For whom it fits, and not tryin to offend, just being down to earth)
Y’all are so BIASED it’s sad! As soon as you see a bunch of white kids lookin different, y’all assume his music is gay/bad/commercial and make such obtuse/conceited comments: “i think dis @*#$! iz gay. fall out boy yall go cut yer wrists and leave lil wayne alone (note this person didn’t say sh!t about music!)”, “Lil Wayne jumped on this to appeal to the rock genre”! (cb126405, sorry fam, but you’re wrong!) , “this was not that bad/I can’t stand FOB” (as if it was suppose to be bad! I know y’all never heard an entire album, not even a song! “Dance, dance”, "Thnks fr th Mmrs” anyone?!) I’ll enlighten you (I’ll even disagree with you Z, that summary ain’t accurate about FOB not being hip hop at all): - ain’t nothing new about this! Fall Out Boy has worked with Timbaland, Lil Wayne and Kanye West in the recent past. This is not a random featuring, a bunch of rappers remixed “This ain’t a scene”, including Kanye and Wayne (yes, I believe Wayne “jumped on this” because they respect each other’s work mutually and since it’s not the first time they work together, they must be cool with one another) - they are so hip hop that they even name their songs after rap classics: "The Take Over, the Breaks Over”, after Jay-Z’s "Takeover” - Gym Class Heroes, hip hop band, joined Pete Wentz's label, Decaydance Records, after touring with FOB. Only after singed with Decaydance, they saw success. Pete Wentz is FOB’s bassist. - the vocalist, Patrick Stump, produced (for one of the best rappers out now) Lupe Fiasco’s “Little Weapon” and also worked with Tyga, T.I., The Roots (“birthday girl”), So why would you judge them arrogantly?! Y’all Hip hop lovers embarrass me sometimes :s Why are you talking like you are “giving FOB a chance”, as if you were too good for them?! The irony of it all is that FOB are down with “black music”, black people and everything related. |

This song is great, I love rock songs! Only I don't understand why Lil Wayne is here...I don't think he fits this type of song! I'm not rating this as an hip hop track but as a completely rock one, as if Lil Wayne wasn't even there...banger!

I dont really care for this song, nor do I care for FOB. An no, its not because Im close minded etc, whatever you guys are ranting about. I just dont particularly like this track, and I dont care for FOB. Nothing against them, they are doing their thing, but I just prefer other bands over them.

I think Lil Wayne complimented this song greatly, it's a great song. Lil Wayne's verse was placed perfectly in the song, jus when i started to think it was becoming somewhat monotonus Weezy steps in. A great collabo. Its seems more and more genres are merging together, soon they'll create a whole new genre! Lol

Its EXCELLENT to finally see alternative music finding its way to the booth. Fall Out boy, Nickelback, Cold Play, Gym Class Heroes, Tokio Hotel, and Lincoln Park ALL KICK ASS! If you don't know, go out there and see what you've been missing!
With all of that being said this is one of their weaker tracks right here. The video will be crazy, but not really feeling the chorus. The beat is OK. The lead singer's voice is always good. I was really wondering how they was going to put Lil Wayne in here, but he fits in nicely at the bridge! Really nicely done! This is in Rotation. Could have been better considering the talent, but I'll take it....for now... |

All I'm going to say is Lil' Wayne only had 6 lines. Actually he only had 3, he just repeated them once, so I can't really say that he contributed anything to this song. The rest of the song was pretty cool though, 3***

This bangs pretty damn hard. To be honest, the song ended and I was like "wtf, I didn't hear Wayne at all....". I was kind of just lightly listening to the song while I was doing some other stuff, but Wayne's part completely went by me. When I went back and listened to his part, I dug it. Not the typical sounding Weezy we're all used too. I love how we're starting to see more and more rock star/rap star collabs as time goes on. Really diggin' it. And the song, too.

@ FredRico - FOB might have worked with hip-hop artists/producers in the past, but these fellas are NOT hip-hop. Even w/ Weezy on this song, it still is NOT hip-hop.
Sooo Boooyyaaaaa! Haha. |
