Papoose - Get Right
This is Pap’s first official shot at a radio friendly single and it features Busta on the hook and Swizz Beatz behind the boards. I haven’t been a huge fan of Swizz’s work since the years used to start with 1’s and a Busta hook can usually go either way, so I was prepared for this to be spectacularly awful before I even heard it. Now that I’ve heard it, I have to say it’s really not that bad at all, and definitely not as bad as it potentially could have been. However, this other new joint, Faces of Death, is a little more up my alley.

April 3rd, 2006 at 3:35 am
I ONCE THOUGHT DUDE WAS JUST OK BUT AFTER GOING BACK AND REVIEWING THE TAPE I MUST SAY DUDE IS THAT NIGGA!!! HE THE TRUTH!!!
April 3rd, 2006 at 3:40 am
what are you niggas doing awake right now…and on here no less.
April 3rd, 2006 at 3:42 am
Faces of Death is a lot better.
He’s pretty good but I wouldn’t say he’s Top 5 material.
His biggest problem is going to be having people buy his records cause he’ll be viewed as a hiphop cat for trying to maintain his original fanbase and having songs with lots of “big words” in it.
Something that doesn’t reflect well on the soundscans these days as people are only getting dumber.
You can’t dazzle the ignorant with displays of brilliance, it is like trying to teach French to a deaf kid.

That shit sucked fuck Papoose he can’t rap his way out of a paper bag, he is the sole reason hip hop is coming to an end, he doesn’t rap about anything important, and his nose is big.
p.s.
I was just kidding dude is tight but I had to ruffle a few of you niggaz feathers and shit!

papoose need experience, and he aint so young… his lyricism on faces of death is well below par… he’s got the words right but not the order..thats why he ends up with weak ass bars like “he the only survivor” or “crushed by a ceiling” or “fell over backwards”… these bars just restate wat was said, its like he needed the extra rhymin bar n it feels contrived…
disappointed by both songs

Pap has a lil Big-L in his flow
April 3rd, 2006 at 10:43 am
i love pap. i don’t care what anyone says, he’s in my top 5. but i don’t think bus is doing good by home. i’m with eskay, i haven’t like swizzy since there were two 9’s in the year, and i feel he did horrible on this one. the ridin dirty remix on the mixtape was definitly a better commercial appearance. faces of death is an old freestyle, definitly a favorite, but this version is much more proffessional and easier to listen to per the average hiphopper. overall, i think he is definitly showing that he can be that dude, i just hope bus don’t fuck it up. yo es, should i still send you shit when i get it? or was i like 8 hours too late?
April 3rd, 2006 at 11:47 am
I think Pap’s move with Flip Mode would be better if Bussa Buss stayed off his joints. And I agree he would be better off with someone else’s camp.
1st joint: An ok joint for the clubs, nothing to get excited about.
2nd joint: Pure unadul… un… unaaa *stuttering like dude from New Jack* UNADULTERATED genius.
Songs like that definitely make him Top 5 of the new millenium, and co-rookie of the year (Lupe Fiasco sharing that one… don’t sleep).
April 3rd, 2006 at 1:26 pm
SHIT PAP WITH SOME DECENT HOOKS WOULD BE GREAT!!
April 3rd, 2006 at 2:34 pm
Let me be the firs to Say!!!…..That Shyt Was Pure Trash……………..
Jus Because the beat is a Club beat Don’t make it a Club hit!!!!!.
He didn’t need busta on the hook…..one of the worse hooks i’ve heard………Eva from Buta!!!!!………..
Lyric Are cool……The Beat sound Like Every otyher fucking beat Swizz Have out now…….He should have fuck wit Timbaland……Or Scott Storch…For da First single……..But hey Lets hear wat his next Single will sound Like…….

I dont know if its just me, but I think I have seen some people slightly touch on it, about Papoose.
I think Papoose can spit, but I’m just not really feeling him like that. You know how there is good ball players, but they just not your style, or you just prefer someone else.
Like I said I think he can spit, but His voice and his rhyming pattern just dont mesh well for my taste. I really dont know if he is able to walk that fine line of commercial success and street appeal. I think he should stick to being street cause in the long run, that will help him better.
April 3rd, 2006 at 8:37 pm
faces of death gets the thumb up from me… as for get right it gets the sideways thumb… its ok but im not to hype about it like i am for some of his other works… and im sticking my gunz on fiasco being the best in 06… he’s what the games been missing*eat it up juelz, cause you know it true*
April 4th, 2006 at 10:47 am
@ Cipher
Have you heard Lupe mixtapes? Beast.
April 4th, 2006 at 4:37 pm
lupe fiasco would be original if it was still 1990
April 4th, 2006 at 4:38 pm
and does anybody notice that the higher trigger happy pappy climbs the louder the hate gets from the internet peanut gallery…
April 5th, 2006 at 12:01 am
that faces of detah track is type old, but it sounds better now, especially the beat, str8 crack!
April 5th, 2006 at 1:44 am
is it normal that busta signs papoose, while rah digga and his weed carrier, spliff star (how suitable) havent had a decent album or a decent meal… lol, though its big for busta in the streets and its good for pap (7 figure deal) and wtv, as much as i love pap (refer to screenname)
fuck man, that song wassss weeeeakk, swizzy did a better job on the DALE remix than this shit, but wtv no matter what papoose says its 99% better than all these young rappers runnign around
busta is creating so much hype for this fuckign big bang cd, with his rainbow coloured Ts… the whole remix video problem, the dave mays situation, signing papoose… i feel as if someone (40 cent) is talking in his ear
btw faces of death was originally a “freestyle” on the AINT NO CLICK beat.
you no ur commercial when:
*since the touch it remix, put the face to the voice
the ladies love my style, they gettin moist
… i came from the bottom, but i rolls like royce
April 11th, 2006 at 11:59 pm
Man, Papoose is a BEAST man, tru stuff. I’ve heard 110 of his songs and every last one of them was Fire. I mean come on what other rapper can go from A to Z like this niiga did using the same letter for each word of each letter. What? What? thought so. Papoose is that dude, and no body stopping him right now casue its his time ta shine. Pap that dude!!!!
May 12th, 2006 at 2:02 pm
yo point blank…papoose get rite single is wack ass hell!!! his lyrics is not made for industrial purposes’ he is a underground rapper and he should have stayed like that…. just listen to the song lyrics and u’ll kno wat i mean.. i can make a better music than that
August 10th, 2006 at 3:15 am
Hold Up Hold Up, i’m kind of feeling this track, but there needs to be a couple changes. First, Swizz Beats needs to produce a new beat, we’ve heard that old beat too often especially on Cassidy’s tracks and no offense to Busta Rhymes, but i think the track is better off with Papoose on the hook. Papoose needs to spit new versus (more club banging), these versuses are too weak, they won’t get a crowd going.
