No it doesn’t entirely match the energy of “Swagga Like Us,” in fact, its more reminiscent of Mr. Carter off of Wayne’s Tha Carter III but “U Ain’t Neva Gottz Ask” is still an incredible collaboration regardless.
There’s so much going on in this song – the crazy sped up piano, the thuming hand clap like beat, the booming echoes in the background, and of course the re-interpolation of George Michael’s schmaltzy “Careless Whisper.” In the hands of less capable and assured producers all of these elements could have ended up sounding like a mess, but on “U Ain’t Neva Gottz Ask” it all comes together perfectly.
Bonus points for the use of my favorite Jay-Z rhymes, Justify My Thug. Take note Flo Rida and BEP, this is how you build a song around samples. Listen to “U Ain’t Neva Gottz Ask” after the jump
Luis is sick today, so he’s taking a well-deserved day off. Ali from Brave New Wave has agreed to help hold up the PMA fort.

Damn Luis, I found this on HypeM and even before looking, I had a notion this was coming from your site. Always a hit song on here. Thanks!
Hot production by the verses are recycled. Dont get it twisted though, Ill be banging this crusin down the freewa7
Verses arn’t ‘recycled’, this is a MASHUP! A damn good one tho. and it says it was ali, not luis who posted this
I can’t stand Kanye. He sounds like rich kid complaining about life when he raps. His lyrics don’t actually say anything of substance. The beats are pedestrian at best. I don’t get why he’s so popular. And finally, his ego is out of control.
fuck you crazy john
so i cant get super into the rap on this track, but i love the chorus. and i just realized why – it sounds a LOT like another song i love: Jedi Mind Trick’s Razorblade Salvation with Shara Woodren (My Brightest Diamond). tell me i didnt just make this up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upROYYL-GvU
