New Rihanna/Kanye/Macca song - FourFiveSeconds

Just released tonight.

http://www.billboard.com/articles/6...nye-west-paul-mccartney-track-FourFiveSeconds

No Macca vocals. Sounds like he plays acoustic guitar and the in and out bass line.

Catchy tune. Much stronger than Only One. Kanye should have sung like this on Only One.

 

I LIKE it! Paul is teaching them to play real music!

 

Nice sounding tune. Would rather it be Jay Z and Beyonce though. Still the song lyrics do suggest the possibility that Rihanna/Kanye/Macca might get arrested. That's my hope for the future!

 

Listening to it now, back to back with "Only One", I'm really enjoying this. "Only One" has grown on me immensely, and this new one sounds great, too. I don't mean to compare artists old and new, but as I listen to both tracks I'm reminded of Stevie Wonder songs like "Love Having You Around" and Rufus songs like "You Got the Love". Of course it's got its own vibe, too (the two tracks taken together, that is -- they go well together, like consecutive LP tracks). It's a very pleasant double feature. I look forward to more. Thanks for posting this.

 

I hope people here consider the music, and don't use this as an opportunity to complain about Kanye and/or Rihanna.


Kidding!

 

I noticed "fans" on FB are already bitching and moaning at McCartney. What they expect from him is beyond me! He is a musician and a working musician still so if he wants to work with people outside the box it is ok. As I said earlier I really like this song. P Mac may have his name on a number one single for the first time since 1984 this year.

 

I really enjoy this song. It would have been neat to maybe have Paul do some backing vocals, but I am fine with his guitar and bass on this. Nice!

 

I do like Rihanna...Kanye I could do without

 

Music sounds pretty good, Rihanna not too bad either. But that other guy kind of ruins it for me. Oh well...

 

McCartney is setting the standard. Again. Not a great song, but pretty good. I am amazed he is on it. Not too shabby for a guy George Michael said should retire, 25 years ago. Look who is recording with the hot talent today. Not GM by a longshot!

 

Is Paul playing all the instruments on here?

 

Nice song. And doesn't Paul look pretty good for someone in their 70's?

 

With that haircut he almost looks 15, except old.

 

Rihanna has put out some great songs and she has a unique voice, not generic sounding. I approve.

 

There is, of course, the miracle of Photoshop.

 

That sounds like a movie

The World's Oldest 15 Year Old- (1977) Don Knotts, Tim Conway, Barbara Harris-- Hijinks ensue when a traveling salesman (Knotts) inadvertently drinks too much of his youth preserving potion and therefore returning to high school at nearly fifty. Also starring Scatman Crothers....

 

It's not a bad track. Don't understand Kanye's vocals in the middle at all. I guess he has to put his stamp on it if he wrote the lyrics. It's light years ahead of the Kanye/Paul track. Wished it was a cleaner/better sounding release. Not a fan of Rhianna as a person...but she CAN SING. I'll buy it when it gets an official singles release.

 

I like the fact that Rihanna's vocals actually have character. The song is alright.

 

Love all 3 but the song is garbage.

 

I like it. Wonder if this is the version that will go to radio.
(A dance mix coming?)

 

The fact that Dave Longstreth and Paul McCartney have played on the same song has me absolutely buzzing.

 

"Rianna and Kanye bout to make Paul McCartney hit it big Bo "

 

Better than Only One but it still does nothing for me.

 

and the biggest news yet...

That photo makes me think of the GAP. Sounds like Rihanna didn't use autotune either. There are a couple of moments where Kanye's voice sounds manipulated though.
