Jones Andrews - Lifetime Memories
Artist: Jones Andrews
Producer: Moody So Fly
Album: 32 Tuesdays
Label: Flight School Music
I don’t know what they’re putting in the water in North Carolina but after year of flying under the radar the First in Flight state has been turning out dope music like UNC turns out NBA players. Hoping to add his name to the list of rising NC rappers is Jones Andrews who, after 32 straight weeks of releases on our sister site RefinedHype, is finally making his Booth debut with new single Lifetime Memories. While I can’t say for sure, I’m confident that this is the first time in hip-hop history a producer has flipped a sample of country music hit What Hurts the Most, which I suppose would make producer Moody So Fly the Wright Brothers of Rascall Flatts samples. Taking that emotional backdrop and running with it is Andrews, who displays some real lyrical dexterity in describing a relationship that was so good, until it went all wrong. Sometimes you just have to make the song cry. If you find yourself wanting to hear more songs from Andrews, like say 31 more, you’re in luck. Compilation mixtape 32 Tuesdays is set to drop via RefinedHype on April 26.

Was expecting better lyrics from this because of the near perfect production

I'm a little disappointed in regards to Andrew's delivery on the track. His verses were good, but he was overshadowed by the great production and the fantastic sample that was incorporated into the track. This track itself has definite replay value and is nearing in on banger status, in my opinion. Andrew's flow was the only thing at fault, but even then it wasn't that big of a drawback. I think that Andrew's has definite potential, especially as a newcomer.

This sample is off the chain (although the big wow that would've come with sampling the actual chorus of Rascal Flatts' song never came as I was expecting)! The production is top-notch for sure. Andrews does nothing bad for the track either. He has a solid performance on the mic, which works if your production is this good.

I really love the hook. The beat is fire and the lyrics are tough... being from Nc I respect the grind. When you blow up my man, stay humble to the game:)

Didn't impress me with the delivery, but i guess I'm in the majority that thinks the beat is pretty good.

I echo the words of many.. above average production but throughout the song I kept waiting for that "moment" when Jones would truly shine.

Great track on the lyrical side because Jones never disappoints. Great production. If you liked this then you'll love his "32 Tuesdays" series. Stay tuned for his upcoming EP.

I'm not going to lie, I have had a difficult time keeping up with 32 Tuesdays because I started late. This song though, is one of the best that I heard from the series.
