Mac Miller's "Party On Fifth Ave" Makes You Wonder What Type of Party It's
Mac Miller's "Party On Fifth Ave" Makes You Wonder What Type of Party It's
The second single for Miller's debut album Blue Slide Park is "Party on Fifth Ave.". I.D. Labs produced the track. The familiar sample you hear about the main loop is produced by "The 900 Number", a 1987 song by DJ Mark the 45 King's. This same catchy loop was sampled in DJ Kool's single from 1966, "Let Me Clear My Throat". The originator from the now popular sample is Marva Whitney who released this sound in the funky track "Unwind Yourself". Mac Miller style instrumental
Miller's honest motivation for hip-hop may be clearly demonstrated in a few of the mixtapes he released prior to Blue Side Park. His clever utilization of social media networks to show and market his songs and videos plays a big role in his success. The strong local group of fans that backs the rapper in his hometown is also one of many essential driving forces in their career. Unfortunately, when it comes to "Party on Fifth Ave" the lyrics get this track lean for the sloppy side, specially when using such a powerful sample.
It isn't really pretentious to acknowledge that what really makes "Party On Fifth Ave." a descent single will be the sample itself. The second you hear the loop get involved in it sucks you in to the nostalgia of that era in hip-hop and also you can't help but to maintain listening to see just what the song will deliver. However, Mac Miller fell short with silly lyrics that talk about being "fly", comedian Sinbad and Beetlejuice. All of this just seems like hopeless attempt to come off old school - we all know you're just 20.
Easy Mac's style definitely brings a nostalgic old fashioned party theme for the table, and it works for him. The principle issue on this single is lyrical content, various rappers already write rhyme about old style stuff such as Shows, toys we tinkered with and cartoons we still remember. Rap acts achieving this are Jay Electronica and Lupe Fiasco. Thankfully that Mac Miller is new talent and it will be interesting to determine how he develops his delivery and chatting with boost his credibility. Mac Miller Style beat
Mac Miller's "Party on Fifth Ave." possesses his own music video that was directed by Ian Wolfson. Inside the video Wolfson shoots scenes of Mac Miller with his fantastic crew dressed as elderly men with canes and mobile scooters for seniors. It is meant to be funny but it is the direction is silly and corny. For any sample with such caliber and that has been used in big classic hits from the past, I think Mac Miller could've spend extra hours writing. The director also could've used a little extra days thinking about a better concept for the video.
