It's just another example of me realizing that people with my traditional sensibility are really distanced from what is truly resonating with kids today. "I think an indicator of something bigger going on. But then again, I don't know any big records these days that sound like a New York record. On top of that, it doesn't sound like a New York record. "Maybe being from New York helped with the groundswell? But Future is a huge star here. All kinds of people remind me of Future more than this Desiigner record does. And that's up and down the board, from Travis Scott to Kanye. When people copy Future, what I hear them copying the most is the melodic, sing-songy stuff. If anything, I thought he sounded like he almost had a British accent. "I never really heard Future in it the way everyone does, I just didn't think it sounded like a rip-off. So we can lie for likes on the internet, but when your feet leave your loafers in the club, the only person you're lying to is yourself." And despite the jokes about it being basically copy and pasted into a Kanye song, I still hear the dance floor roar whenever either one is played. I've seen people give themselves whiplash to that song. You can sit around and criticize a hundred different things about Desiigner, but when those claps come on, everyone finds themselves trying to repeat those machine gun bars. He didn't ask to be New York's savior, and shouldn't have to stand in for the Mr. "The song is phenomenal! So phenomenal it became a Kanye song. We all not only assumed it was Future, but we also congratulated him for making a fire song on a Kanye album. I didn't even know who Desiigner was until The Life of Pablo was about to come out none of us did. "Motherfuckers were jumping off couches in the club to 'Panda' before they even had any clue who wrote it. But it's a record that you play at 1:45 a.m., before you start dropping all the Future and Young Thug shit." It's not 'March Madness,' it's not 'Jumpman,' it's not 'Jersey,' it's not 'Stick Talk' in the club out here.
" you don't have to play 'Panda,' but you should play it, because there are a lot of New York people and people who rock with Kanye West here. When Kanye West got on that shit, it took it to a whole 'nother level. But everything he put together for this look is perfect for him. But it's just like one of them things-Future hasn't called me like, 'Fuck that dude, don't support him.' Future kind of runs Atlanta, so if Desiigner blatantly comes out and says, 'I don't fuck with Future,' then everyone in Atlanta is probably not going to fuck with the kid and it's going to make it harder for him the next time he drops something. "A lot of artists take from artists, and I don't know if Desiigner took from Future, but I do know that when he recorded, Future was everywhere, influencing everybody.
