Travis "Travie" McCoy - We'll Be Alright
Artist: Travis "Travie" McCoy
Producer: The Smeezingtons & Stereotypes
Album: Lazarus
Label: Decaydance/Fueled By Ramen/Nappy Boy/Atlantic
Warning: prior to listening to this song you must be in a good mood. Actually, even if you’re not in a joyous mood before pressing play on Travie McCoy’s new single, We’ll Be Alright, you may experience sudden feelings of euphoria weaving their way through your bloodstream. Crafted by The Smeezingtons & Stereotypes, the instrumentation on Be Alright is so reminiscent of the Beach Boys even Alaskan listeners will be getting out their sunscreen. Although he still carries his same fun and sincere personality, Travie’s voice sounds completely different here from the majority of his catalog (see Billionaire), and for some reason it works. A feel good hit, Be Alright is so fun and exciting that you have to wonder what made its maker so ecstatic; this couldn’t have possibly been created after waking up on a Monday morning. Regardless, I think it’s safe to say that this song will have Travie fans hitting the beaches with their boom box blasting Lazarus after it drops on June 8. Will the Booth echo these positive sentiments? That’s up to you.
This song first appeared on the
R&B / Pop Chart
on May 24, 2010

How many radio-ready, rhythmic pop records do you know with the line "we don't give a f*ck" in the chorus? How about none. Will that hurt Travie's chances at smashing radio with this record? Well, only if they didn't take the time to create a clean version.
This is a hit. Don't front like you don't think so, too.

I'm digging this song a lot. It definitely has that summertime feel to it and Travie McCoy's lyrics are pretty good. I like the production on here, this is definitely gonna be on the billboard charts!

Is it just me or does it seem like McCoy and The Smeezingtons were born to make music together? I know the sample size is small, but the results are REAL enjoyable. This has radio written all over it.

Smeezingtons have been making some hit ready beats recently (Nothin' on You for example). And with Travis being his good self on here, this is a big hit in the making.

I'm not too crazy about it, simply cause the original sample they used here is too present in my ear while I listen to this one here...

It's pretty good, but something about it isn't clicking with me. Maybe I just need to listen to it a coupla more times. I think Billionaire is better though.

This is cool, Travie's song are always enjoyable to say the least. His verses are always appealing to the ear and with a fresh uptempo beat and catchy hook, this has all the makings of another summer hit.

He always makes a hit. Can't make an argument about this one though. Almost radio-ready. Give it a few weeks it'll be everywhere as always.

That "Billionaire" joint is killing on the radio over here on the westcoast. It'd be pretty hard for this to match its success but it has the potential. Nice!

I'm going to enjoy this now before it blows up and gets played on radio continuously for three months straight and I slowly start to hate it.
Travie continues to impress. This Lazarus album could be something serious.

This is too poppy and gay. I couldn't listen to this again. Not to sound mean, but I'm not a fan of this happy all over the place "it's time to party" type of track. Seeing as how this song is pretty popular, I'm curious as to whether or not I was listening to something else.

Not my cup of tea, but I'm glad Trav is back to doing his type of rap. He had me a little worried with that bs single Gym Class had with Dream.

The lyrics are different, yes. The style is a little bit difference, yes. In any case, the melody and harmonies are EXACTLY THE SAME. What’s the point in listening to this rather than the original? I can't get down with this. Smart for sales, but otherwise not a good look.
