Ugh, I don't get the hate for this on Pulse. Sure it's not original, sure Nicki's verse is negligible, sure Normani and Ariana aren't giving their A-games here either...but is it significantly worse than any other pop singles this year?? :sip2:

Link removed. -Juan Carlos
So i was bored yesterday and i made a remix lf the song, this is how i would have wanted it to sound. production was a bit empty so i spiced it up a bit. Let me know your opinion: Let see if the link works...

Ugh, I don't get the hate for this on Pulse. I think most of us dislike it because: Nicki's verse is negligible Normani and Ariana aren't giving their A-games here either... Out of this year alone I can name a few songs like "All the Time", "Harleys in Hawaii", "Raising Hell", "Slide Away" and "Higher Love" that would have been more deserving of top 5 on iTunes and top 30 on Spotify, imo.

Can we just be a little more appreciative please lol These songs aren't meant to be bops that top the charts, they were meant for a movie And for that I think they sound perfect! I could see all the Ari songs perfectly fit into a film This was definitely supposed to be the most GP-appealing song but it's still just a random track on that soundtrack After all, we should be glad these songs are out, when did we first hear a snippet of this track? Calm your mouths and enjoy the music for what it is and if you don't then go back to thank u next

Show a little respect to actual good soundtrack music. Whitney's rolling in her grave at this comment. Lorde strung together an incredible soundtrack. Beyoncé killed it for the culture. A nearly X-rated film spawned multiple hits and helped a musician breakout in the mainstream. This? This is tired fodder and we are more than allowed to rake it through the coals for being as such.

I mean tbh this doesn't even feel like it was meant for a soundtrack and that's probably due in part for the fact that it originally wasn't
It was an unused song for sweetener Got Her Own was unused for TUN
I'm almost certain How I Look On You was probably for TUN as well
Nobody was announced by Chaka a good while ago, so whose know what it was meant for
All of those but Nobody felt like songs cut from other projects that got slapped onto here
Nobody and DMCA feel at least more befitting of the film
How I Look On You lyrically doesn't seem like it belongs here at all cause of how personal the writing seems.

The more I listen to this the more I like it, but then Nicki's verse at the end completely kills the momentum Normani & Ariana built up in their verses. A frustrating situation 😐

Actually Got her own was meant for DW/Sweetener , and Ariana made How i look on you after the release of TUN
