(from an oldhead:) You can tell he's v inspired by people like Pharrell, 50 Cent, and Nelly. Listening to him is like time traveling back to late 90's/early 00's. Except I wasn't even a huge fan of it back then. He somehow made it better. I don't even know how, but he did.
At 48 years old i can say YES this beat is ITTTTT! Every song ive heard since MDB has been amazing. Im hooked & playing his tunes on repeat for weeks now 🔥🔥
I’m almost 40. This reminds me of Missy/Tim, Neptunes, and some Lil Jon taking them old funk beats from the 70’s/80’s .. but he put the orchestra tune in it so it remind me of some Texas tunes. One of my favorite songs from my 20’s was Still Tippin n they used an orchestra tune. I thought hip hop was dead but this kid is alright
Tommy said stop playing with him - look how long we had to wait on something you can do a real dance to that's not straight out the garbage, he got the whole Summer on lock 🔥
Oldhead Karen here: the beat reminds of a time when the production was just about moving, feeling positive. Like Q tips Vivrant Thing - just a dope beat that feels good. We need more!
So weird. I heard the song 4-5 times. Couldn't tell if I liked it. Listened again through your video and I actually kinda heard the lyrics, word for word with the flow of the song this time. Honestly pretty good. Funky high-pitched vocals with a crazy good beat.
React to ALLIGATOR the EP by tommy richman!!! Been a fan of him for like 2 years he even responds to my dms and shit he's such a dope artist I'm glad he's finally blowing up!!
Even though the beat is interesting his vocals never misses man 🔥 If you wanna listen to something he made before MDB listen to "What Do You Like" it's a bop and I've been a fan even since i came across it
strings in beginning & beat is very middle eastern. Listen to contemporary ME artists like Mohamed Hamaki ( He even had a rapper in a song. look him & other cultures music up. Very cool.).
I'm always let a beat run til the drums, can change the whole vibe and you rap on the drums not the sample. If it sounds really really ass, I skip forward to keep a quick listen of the drum pattern.
That chorus go crazyyy
chorus really does go crazy the harmonies are insane
THAT WHITE BOY VALIDDD !! 😭🔥
ON MEEEEEEE
This song is bringing back "funk" rap in the best way possible. Witty, gritty. Makes ya wanna grind. Pure gold.
As a huge Neptunes fan this brings tears to my eyes. He’s bringing back that sound but with a modern day twist 🔥
100% was just thinking old school pharrell and Nep deep stuff.
100% neptunes coded

I hear that my friend. Nostalgia goes hard with Tommy's style
This is Pharrell inspired from Neptune days massively
I hope they collab! Two VA boys 🔥
Exactly! It’s a lil t pain mixed either way the Neptune’s! I pray they link.
This IS inspired by the west coast Funk
@@LuckyKlvrSyxAdd Timbaland in there too.
It’s like Pharrell and Nelly together

This shit is so good. I love his vibe. Electricy tonight is good by him. Hes very versatile. He has many styles. But so far hes onto something.
This takes me back to the 70’s deep, rich, bumping, and smooth!😊🎵🎶🎹🎤🥁
This beat is freaking amazing, love the violin in the beginning!!! And nope I would never turned this off!!!!!😊 🎼🎤

It’s like 50cent collating with Pharrell at the same time
I’ve read he’s also trained in opera.
Who made that beat????
Justin Timberlake wigga phase vibes. In a good way 😂
H TOWN VIBES
this so NERD vibe and I love it
this song is insanely good, its to bad its only 2 minutes long, they need a 5-6 minute rework
Should listen to Old Man by Perry Maysun Ft. Tommy Richman. It’s a banger
I agree. Sandman hits hard as well
listen to soulcrusher and the rush they are fire
i’m not clicking off gng ngl you gotta listen to that old shi from pharrell
To me it's a slower mix of its getting Hott in here Nelly Neptune's, I see his style similar TQ Westside till I die very similar
I hear 2pac ambitions of a rider Nelly and Pharrell
2for2
Goosebumps ah beat
