Chris Brown

We are officially back from summer break, and it appears Big Sean is back in the rap beef game.

The Detroit rapper went on “On The Radar” yesterday and appeared to take a jab at the recent funeral of Drake…I mean his battle with Kendrick Lamar.

Whether Big Sean meant it or not, it opened up a creaky door we haven’t used in a while…the one that leads to “Aughts Hot or Not.”

Today, let’s go back to 2011 and revisit Big Sean’s “My Last”

Music Video

Not ideal that we don’t get any lyrics until nearly a minute into this thing; even worse, the first ones we hear are from Chris Brown.

We also see very early on that being at high landmarks seems to be something very important to Big Sean here. A terrace overlooking some city (assuming LA), sitting in a chair on the top floor of a building, etc. Not sure the meaning behind this, other than maybe that’s where Chris Brown was currently hiding from the cops and couldn’t be seen anywhere else.

The next minute and a half or so is Sean drinking what appears like Mountain Dew Code Red and looking at every woman that walks by whilst talking to another woman sitting directly in front of him…kind of rude. Right before the three minute mark, we finally start to get a change of scenery, which is a classic Aughts location of what seems like a closet with some shiny wallpaper on it with a lot of shoulder shimmying and pointing to the camera.

The remainder of the video is quick cuts of the template music video “party,” and the other two locations already shown.

Meh.

Best Lyric

Since I signed to Kan’, I’m Louis Vuitton shine
Up in Benny Han Han eating all the wonton
Rosé rose over a little Chandon
Put her hands down my pants, now she rocking Sean John

Benihana wontons, amazing. Rosé, lovely. Louis Vuitton, if that’s your thing. Just the right amount of crass at the end, perfect.

Only downside here is that we not only have a Kanye West (God I miss old Kanye) reference, we also have a nod to Diddy…so this obviously aged well.

Worst Lyric

Hands up in the air
I just want the, I just want the baddest bitch in the world right here on my lap
And I’ma hit this drink up like it’s my last, I’ma hit this night up like it’s my last
I’ma I’ma, hmm, hmm, like it’s my last
Swear I’ma, swear I’ma do it like

and

Like I never had it at
All, all, all, all, all, all, all, all
Like I, like I, like I never had it at
All, all, all, all, all, all, all, all
Like I, like I, like I never had it at

and

Big ass bottles, big ice buckets
I work too hard to be ballin on a budget
Me and my people do it big out in public
‘Cause if you don’t do it big bitch you ain’t doing nothing

This is everything Chris Brown sings in this song.

Rating

I remember this one being a banger back in the day, but we’ve got a lot of negatives here. Boring video, Kanye & Diddy references, and Chris Brown. This is a begrudging rating we’re giving here.
