AKA: The song that confused indieheads and hiphopheads alike.
This won’t get #1, because I can think of some more emotionally earnest bangers on this list, but as an outright banger, it’s one of the decade’s boldest.
You have tropical chill house, dancehall, and rap thrown together, and it works. Even as Young Thug spews obscenities throughout his verses, his carefree affection fits the evening mood to a (Y)T.
We need more songs like this–ideally ones that I can play in front of kids. It’s an utter shame I didn’t to spin this one at one of my cross-country parties, because I associate this song with those moments.
