Big Sean Hot New Music 2015: 'Blessings' Rapper Responds to Kendrick Lamar 'Control' Verse in Beyonce's 'Me, Myself & I' Freestyle? [Listen]
Before releasing his third studio album "Dark Sky Paradise" on Tuesday, Big Sean unveiled a brand new track, in which he freestyles over Beyoncé's 2003 hit "Me, Myself And I."
Producer RobGotBeats undoubtedly put his own spin on the mellow, Scott Storch-made instrumental, giving it more of an upbeat vibe.
The Detroit emcee kicks off the track by giving a shout-out to the R&B diva, who attended his album listening party in Los Angeles last week: "Man this like one of my favorite Beyoncé songs, man / What up though, Bey? Yeah."
The "IDFWU" hitmaker sounds pretty contented -- rapping about his fans ("Man this one for the ones who cop the album and they ain't need a receipt / All the internet plumbers, you know looking for the leaks"), family ("I got mom and bro around like what's better than the family") and recent performance ("Did a show at House of Blues that s--t was better than the Grammys") -- until he reaches the 1:48 mark.
Sean Don seemingly takes a shot at skit-using Kendrick Lamar, who infamously called him out among a list of rappers on "Control":
"You're more about showing off, I'm more about show and prove / Y'all bragging about so and so, like 'O, he really it? / The new n---a in rap? Well, can he really spit?' / Or do he just hide behind his skits like half of these rappers do / And then y'all f--king go and praise him and his b---h like they savior of this s--t."
The "Blessings" rapper also acknowledges his relationship with current girlfriend Ariana Grande. "Got a good girl at home, yeah that's all me," he spits. "Yeah my woman is vegan, she got my a-- trying different food / I got her listening to music that she wouldn't listen to / Got her vibing to Nas, she like 'Man, this what I been missing, boo?'"
