My Project: Blue “Messed Up in the Heart&#...
She’s Out Of This Time
My Project: Blue “Messed Up in the Heart” - Is this just how Canadians sing now? Was it like this all along, and no one ever really noticed? Or is it just the Canadians who write their own David Bowie songs? There’s some lovely lead guitar in this track - it reminds of something rather specific, but I can’t seem to place it. Any guesses? (Click here to buy it from My Project: Blue’s official site.)
Busta Rhymes “Touch It” - Though this is hardly Busta Rhyme’s finest hour as a lyricist (one “Wait” is enough for this year, thanks), this brilliant track from Swizz Beatz emphasizes his strengths as a vocalist, alternating between a slooooooooowed down Daft Punk sample and minimal, primal percussion. Excellent stuff, though I wish the lyrics were as good as everything else in the track. (Click here to buy it from DJ City.)

Busta Ryhmes + Swizz Beats= sickness.
(in a good way.)

yeah I like this track too. the lyrics may not be that good but I like the way it switches on a dime from the “Wait”/”Play” ripoff beat to the amped up big booming drum parts.

My friend just mentioned My Project: Blue a few days ago (and what an awful name) and I felt mentally retarded for never having heard of them before. Now I feel less retarded. Thanks, Fluxblog!

Blue pulls from the destroyer/(poppier) frog eyes vein of things. nice enough influences -so much so i’d so take them over Messed Up Heart.

The lead guitar in “Messed Up in the Heart” is amazing.

I love my project: blue. I think he guitar sounds like Pavement’s “We Are Underused”.

‘touch it’ destroys in the club
however, the vocals are technically very impressive
busta is great at riding beats
the beat could’ve been better, as the daft punk sample is a bit offbeat IMO

“There’s some lovely lead guitar in this track - it reminds of something rather specific, but I can’t seem to place it. Any guesses?” Well it’s definately the same beginning guitar riff from DMB’s “The Space Between” whether or not they stole the same riff from another song, I don’t know, but yeah that riff was killing me because I know I had heard it somewhere before too. Thanks Matthew

It really is a shame about Bustas MCing, this is nearly as bad as that “Don’t Cha” mess, though the production is great ..

i disagree with jk. busta’s verse drastically improved “don’t cha”, to the point where i’d hear the intro, change stations, come back about 2 minutes later and think i’d happened across something good til the girls started singing again. i’ll be damned if he doesnt have the same effect with most other guest spots he does.
