It’s a sign that only 4 songs in, Foxx still has the same conflict which I’ll discuss later. It felt like several other songs we’ve heard before and it was in sharp contrast to the way the album was going up until that point. I knew it was him as soon as the track started, and not in a good way. I can’t express how much I hate “Tease” produced by Pharrell. Per usual, when doing these FFWD reviews, I’m going to tell you what songs I thought were bad enough to talk about. When you go 5 years from one musical project to the other, that’s a lot of living to try and nail down on an album however he doesn’t break his 15 track formula. You can usually tell if he’s been partying more or chillin’ with someone(s) special. For the most part, you can get a decent feel for where Foxx is in his life with his albums. The choices he makes musically leave me scratching my head. The talent is NEVER an issue vocally (folks who were at the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight say it sounded fine there, but we got something different on TV, I get it). Nobody has amazing movies each time they hit the screen so that would probably be his second strongest offering, and then there’s his music. I will say the comedy is the most consistent quality of anything he does. Dope stand-ups, great show, awesome radio show (for a while), some good (and bad) movies and even his music. I think we’ve discussed this somewhere in the 8+ years that I’ve been writing for I’m a fan of Jamie Foxx.
