Swizz Beatz - Bang Bang
Artist: Swizz Beatz
Featuring: Pusha T , Pharrell Williams
Producer: Swizz Beatz
Album: Monsta Mondays Series (Week 2)
Label: Monster Music Group
Ok, fine. So today’s not technically a Monsta Monday. So we’re a little late jumping on the latest edition of Swizz Beatz’ weekly music series (see last week’s effort DJ Play the Beat). So what? Great music is timeless, and that makes Swizzy’s latest creation semi-timeless. Fresh off inspiring me to compliment him for switching up his production style on Roman’s Revenge, Alicia Keys’ baby daddy is back to his old tricks on his latest creation Bang Bang, looping a percussion section, overlaying some synth lines and shouting a Pharrell Williams-assisted call and response chorus, albeit it more complexly than he did on, say, Gucci Time. On the mic, either I’m getting used to Swizz’ style or he’s getting better, that verse isn’t half bad, and of course G.O.O.D. Music’s new coke slinger Pusha T shows up for two stellar verses, dropping what I have to believe is hip-hop’s first Frogger reference amidst two women and money fueled verses. I don’t know about bang banging, but at the very least I have to hand it to Beatz, this bangs. What lies in store for us next week? Only time will tell.

Booth members didn't seem to like last week's Swizzy collabo with Estelle, but I have a feeling they will change their minds wtih "Bang Bang." Off the collaborators alone it will probably earn him an additional star average.

Yeah it's better than the song with Estelle but that's not saying much. This isn't great but it's a good song to bang, no pun intended, on your ipod than probably later on forget about it. So for now, it's good.
@Nathan, Eminem actually was the first, as far as I know, on T.I.'s song Touchdown. |

Swizz's delivery was alright, but I don't give a damn about what he had to say. Pusha's second verse was pretty good. Despite the enormous exposure through Kanye lately, I'm still not quite on board with him.
@Hoamboy- Agreed |

Pusha T killed this. Pharrell on the hook was great. Swizz did his thing, production wise, of course. He really needs to stay out of songs and focus on what brought him to the spotlight in the first place. Hype-type hooks and solid production.

Swizzy is EVERYWHERE! This is one of his weaker productions in my opinion. Pusha T was alright on here. Not his best either. This is just OK to me. Not something I would want to play over and over again, so I can't give it a rotation rating. Oh well...

Ok, so the second time around...I say he is doing better. The production is a little noisy for me to love it. I actually liked Swizzy's verse and Pusha did ok. nothing exceptional here.

It’s not the best Swizz song I have heard but I admit that it bangs.

Swizz Beatz should really just worry about production. He just doesn't have the talent

This is actually tolerable comparing to his previous Monsta Mondays Series release. 4 stars thanks to Pusha.
