@@funkstabrisbane Pharrell said himself that this beat was originally a bridge for a Tupac song. Obviously they kept it and built on it for LL down the line.
Being a 2000s kid, I basically grew up with Neptune tracks playing in the background. This and Lavish were stuck in my head ever since I first heard them when I was around six. Then Knock Yourself Out used to drive me crazy. No one was doing it like Neptunes.
pronounced but also barely there. That's some Pete Rock shit, adding more weight to the base (and creating rhythm) leaving empty space and just giving you small hits of that shit.
Listening in 2018 and this still has to be the top 3 best sounding Neptune beats of all-time. My goodness! That percussion choice, the distorted strings with flanger, live bass, acoustic guitar combination is out of this world!
Btw, i secretly think they also co-produced SWV - Right Here, but just didn’t get credit for it. It happens a lot. It’s Pharell who says "S-W-V" at the end.
actually back in the day thats when the fast hi hats were beginning to become popular...well if you didn't listen to any experimental or underground music back then.
Since I was born in the 90s a lot of the song I heard from childhood and still to this day were produced by the neptunes Pharrell, Chad. I look at an album that I got when I was 9 and legitly a majority of the songs were produced by the neptunes. I'm about 23 now. If I was ever an artist I would have them as producers.

To this day, I don't really get what the synths/strings actually play - which makes the song still magical to me. It's hard for me to "listen through" the flanger. It seems there is some interesting "baseline" in the synths - and then some melody on top of it (if I have to describe it in words: "at the end, two times going up and down"). Crazy :-)
2002-2003 was when they had a all-time run…snoop beautiful, clipse whole album, Timberlake bulk of the album, kelis milk shake, Nelly hot n herre, bird man what happened to that boy, Jay z excuse me miss and change clothes. Iconic
Woooah wait is this like a byproduct of that Brent Faiyaz n Drake joint?!!!! Yoooo i never peeped the strings was from this song lol thought it was a new Neptune song
I have a crazy ear....,however, I think it correlates well. 🫠. ‼️ Challenge ‼️ Here me out. Rocket's Theme, from the Despicable Me soundtrack's bridge + The melody from Haterade - Gucci Mane. It has identical chord patterns, (imo) but nonetheless it was definitely produced within that session....when you have time, test out my theory. Slide some feedback regardless if it's applicable.
Shaun XYX Pharrell is doing vocals on the song; “This is for my number one, true baby for, I adoreeee” That’s him as well as other background vocals on the song. Someone else is singing the hook though.
Forget that man it's just another set back I'm so fly like i have a jet pack but i stay on a different lane and I'm so cool but I'm not insane you know I'm just trying to stay the same

Huh? You could take out the bass and still feel the groove. The sound is the synth and those shakes and claps
Classic neptunes sound
not just the bass, the flangered synths mann
I could just tell if a beats by Neptunes, its an unforgettable type of vibe
The Neptune's in their prime was insane!!

True baby for I adore
This is hard to say
I want to make sure I go about this in the right way
'Cause lately I been busy a lot
And I know you don't feel appreciated and what not
I used to tell you that you're hair looked fly
Kiss you slow and stare in your eyes
Now I talk real foul and slick
Every other sentence is, "You make me sick"
Back in the days I was your number one pick
Now your heart's half-broken and that's hard to fix
I had to dig deep inside myself
'Cause I can't see you bouncin' with somebody else
It's a long journey back to the place we was
When I was too embarrassed to admit I was in love
And you was my good girl that wouldn't give it up
I can't let us self-destruct
Baby smile today
'Cause I been on that journey always
I'm gon' love you better
When your friends'll see you too
Just when you think there's nothin' else I can do
I'm gon' love you better
When I think about the things we did
And I think about you having my kids
And I think about us sharing a crib
Losin' all that, God forbid
You deserve flowers and candy, the simple things
In addition to the SL's, bigets and rings
Instead I walk around like I'm a king
And having you ain't nothing but a thing
I even stopped tellin' you the lovin' was good
Too busy frontin' in the hood
Baby girl, hold me tight don't ever let go
I'ma do it real gentle baby, nice and slow
One more chance baby and don't say no
'Cause I got another side to show
Some say love is painful it helps you grow
Well it's time for the pain to go, ya'know
Baby smile today
'Cause I been on that journey always
I'm gon' love you better
When your friends'll see you too
Just when you think there's nothin' else I can do
I'm gon' love you better
Do you think I meant to hurt you? (No)
Do you think I meant to hurt you? (No)
So let's laugh together, cry together
God willin' we gon' die together
Do you think I meant to hurt you? (No)
Do you think I meant to hurt you? (No)
So let's laugh together, cry together
God willin' we gon' die together
It's a brand new me, a brand new you
A brand new day, sky so blue
Hold my hand while I walk with you
Sit on my lap, lemme talk to you
No more games callin' you foul names
Actin' like females is all the same
I'm gon' love you better, my mentality changed
From this day forward I'll never be the same
I'ma rub your lower back, share my dreams
I love you, lemme show you what I mean
Give you the deepest love a girl ever seen
Watch you sleep, so peaceful and serene
A toast to the queen, you're back in my life
But this time I'ma do it right
Trust me, from the bottom of my heart
Nothin's gonna tear us apart, promise
Baby smile today
'Cause I been on that journey always
I'm gon' love you better
When your friends'll see you too
Just when you think there's nothin' else I can do

Very smart comment. It's as if the remedy pattern is of a pack based on what was produced that night. "Left-overs" yet nourishing.

LL killed this beat. Pharrell woulda been dope on this too. With a Cam’Ron feature or something lol
