Sammy Adams - Heads Will Roll (Remix)
Artist: Sammy Adams
Producer: Sam Adams, Matty Trump and A-Trak
Album: Party Records Mixtape
Label: RCA
Hip-popper Sam Adams went from relative unknown to iTunes king so fast he was accused by some of cooking the download numbers, but the Boston native is back in the Booth and ready to prove his initial success was no fluke with his latest leak Heads Will Roll. Essentially a remix of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ track of the same name, Heads Will Roll energetically bounces along on an 80s influenced, Sam Adams, Matty Trump and A-Trak produced beat while Adams takes the reins with rhymes that dodge and weave in and out of the rhythm with lines like the declarative “Don’t compare homeboys to me, I’m in another genre.” You know, he may just have a point there. So how about it Booth? Does this track prove the hype surrounding Adams is warranted, or will he fade away as quickly as he exploded? We’ll find out more when his next project Party Records Mixtape, which will include Heads Will Roll, drops this summer.

On its own, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Heads Will Roll" has a striking, sometimes confusing sound. With that said, for someone who has never heard that song, the sample will sound a little sloppy (and it is).
The pop and electro elements are definitely there, but I'm not sure if it works well with his delivery. |

A very appropriate record for a mixtape entitled "Party Records," but never would I think to include the original version of this song in any part mix of mine. That doesn't mean its bad, its just not my cup of tea. The execution was better the production work.

Although I didn't like his first single, this one is pretty dope. 5 for taking a risk with a Yeah Yeah Yeah track. Didn't come out bad at all.

This is one of those tracks that simply isn't intended to be played on headphones, so I'll have to reserve judgement until I hear it come on in the club and see how the dance floor reacts.
With that said, the beat definitely got my head nodding, but the lyrics didn't exactly blow me away. Ah, it decent.

I do not understand the hype around this kid at all. He is a decent rapper, who is talented at using a synthesizer. The fact that he also decided to release an EP that he demanded for, before releasing a mixtape, really turned me off. I don't want to rout against this guy or any rapper for that matter, but he is not making it easy for me to rout for him

This song will definetly light up parties. The sample is just fun and Sammy comes with his usual energy. Something about this kid catches my attention. I havent heard a bad song from him yet.

Dont know Sam Adams but i can see he wants to really separate himself from the pack. that could be good or bad but on this its mainly good cause this production is freakin awesome but it kinda overshadows Sam. he prolly should asert himself more on later joints but its a good listen 3.5

lovin the production on this song, its right up its alley, party starter, club banger. catchy beat, which is most important cuz when ur at the club u aint really listenin out for lyrics. although he did put in some lyrics it didnt suit the first half of the song but the 2nd half when u could hear him talking, was a bit better suited. still tho a solid song, i could listen to this a number of times easily and would be happy to hear this at a club, rather than tik tok lol
