02/kanye west, kid cudi, 070 shake, & partynextdoor/ghost town
"they did that."
so there was that listening party at the ranch in wyoming. lots of high hopes and expectations. for some of us, the party and the art itself were kind of a slog. but then -BUT THEN(!)- this happened. literal fireworks at the very end. second to last track. pure euphoria bursting through like a ray of sunshine. cudi's wails. kanye's vocals. the lasers and the ultra light beams. the "take me for a little while" sample. the psychedelic soul bubbling underneath, and the overall uplift via song. and then, of course, there's 070 shake. the last two and half minutes of this song are a revelation in which both she and the song reach for the stars and get there, everytime (and always will). a truly transcendent experience via song man, yeah... they did that.
