[Grandaddy]

Thanks

[MAC_DOGG]

cool! thanks!

[bonethugs702310]

cool thanks!

[Norcaliplaya11]

Honest opinion take phaedra off and put jay rush's og verse on the song!He killed that shit!

[ThuggishRuggishKilla]

kool!

[The World's Enemy]

Sounds good thanks Bobby. This is much more clearer and crisp sounding.

[Illmatic Gemini]

...Purchased (for support).

[Donatello]

I preferred the leaked version a billion times, but hey thanks.

[gibbs12]

just got it.

some honest feedback:

- still love the song as a single, but seems to have too much going on

- i like the final beat

- lyfe intro and especially the phaedra outtro are not needed. plus, radio will never play more than 4 min of the song anyway so why bother?

- i don't know much about mixing, but the track seems to drown out the vocals in some parts

- again, i'm thrown off by the extra minute added by phaedra. this is Bone's comeback single, they are supposed to get all the shine on it. no need for what sounds like an American Idol tryout on the end of their song

Great to hear in good quality. But the vocals are too low...especially Kray on the hook. And Lyfe on the hook singing "She Me Shine" is way too loud.

And like most people, I do not like Phaedra on this song at all. It definately sounded better with Jay Rush and the choir. (Although that singing/autotune type thing she did at the end sounded good) If she sang throughout the whole song then maybe it would sound better at the end.

In my eyes you already have 7 different voices established throughout the whole song. Bringing in an 8th voice towards the end kind of breaks the whole vibe of the song.

She has a great voice, but I think on this particular song it just doesnt fit.

Other than that, great song. But.....the low and high vocal levels compared to the beat really worry me.

[StixnStonz]

How did the horrible mixing get passed management and onto itunes?

What do you plan to do to correct it?

[Omar21]

Sheddin my honest opinion here....

I feel as if they didnt really need to add Phaedra on the song. Its like she just pops up out of nowhere and starts singing for a whole minute and some seconrds. Also, the intro to the song really doesnt do much, what happend to the original intro/outro to the song?

On the mixing part of things, the vocals on Krayzies hook are WAYY TOO LOW... and also the breakdown the beat had at the start of both Kray and Wish verses was taken off.. now the beat just sounds too repetitive like it could just keep going and going. Their vocals sound too dull, they could have added some reverb to their vocals. But thats just coming from the ear of a Bone fan since 1994.

[StixnStonz]

Everybody starting replies with "honest" and shit, afraid of the wrath of Adolf Francis. Sucks cuz the song is dope but once the track made it to sequencing and mastering it got fucked in the ass

good point omar, it is a bit loopy compared to the other one

[Mykal The Music Man]

The funny thing is, Warner had to approve of the final mix so it had to have sounded good to them.

But yeah youd be lucky to get radio to play 4 minutes of a song let alone over 6 mins. Maybe they are actually sending the other version to radios and this version is for the album (not that the other version is much shorter)

[shanebone]

man im sorry but i gotta be honest here, this verson put me too sleep! the second version leaked was way better, mostly just cause of the beat! that beat gave the song more energy, now its just dull imo bobby i really hope you change the song back!! deff would sell a lot more and get more plays and thats the honest truth!!!

[Synalyptic]

i am sorry but everything is gravy lyric and flow wise till phadra comes on,she just is completely unnecessary and not all that talented,she really needs to go,and the beat needs to be closer to the older leaked version,also what happened to the "All live instruments" for the beat? that would be sick,i am really not enjoying this mix either,the leaked one is much better

[KrayzieRoach]

remove phaedra and add krayzie's 2nd verse from the og track or add jay rush's og first verse

[The Guy]

First off, they should really drop the intro and Phaedra singing the ending. Makes the song a bit too long. Having the choir singing is just perfect for this track, they should have their part cut down to just a ten or twenty second outro at the end of the song though.

Also, the mixing could use some work. Maybe raise the vocals a bit. And edit out a couple of swears so it makes the radio.

Thats about it. The main issue is cutting down the length of the song so it gets radio play.

[The Gift]

i agree^^

bought it for support...


i also agree, the vocals are way to low on the chorus. also on krayzies verse as well...

adding phaedra was a bad move and was not needed.

the leaked version is 10x better

[au-bone]

nice song

[Philips]

Honest opinion take phaedra off and put jay rush's og verse on the song!He killed that shit!

You really think theyre still gonna change it? lol they already recorded a video for it

Seems like they got a bunch of interns mixing the cd. ephaedra has to go!

[MAC_DOGG]

WHOA!

bones is already in the top 30 hip hop songs

[JeremyMT]

Still loving it and the fact Lyfe's now added to it. Great song! Thanks.

JeremyMT

[SawedOffLeathaFace]

I bought it and enjoyed it. Fuck it.

[SCREWSTON]

so is it really mastered poorly? why in the hell would they do that?

[The Gift]

it may be 100% offical and a done deal but it will not fly on the radio or video going over 6 mins. esp. after pheadra is done singing and they let the instrumental ride. i dont see the point of that. it alone would save 30 seconds

[aziz2104]

Choong great work

[Fatal Productionz]

i will not support a version thats worse than the leak that we already have. more power to the rest of you. the first version was perfect how it was. and lol @ gibbs american idol tryout

[Illmatic Gemini]

...IMO, it'd be nice to support the single. It's only $1. I'm not one to hype-up and buy anything/everything, believe me. I did that with everything from 1994 - 2000ish.

We receive so many free things on here, yet we still find a way to complain about things. I'm not angry, it's just that it's getting very old with the complaints. Nothing wrong with feedback, but let's at least support the 1st official single from their 1st album all-5 in damn-near 10 years.

Not too much to ask (or spend) IMO.

agree with you illmatic on the support tip.

the board has brought the community so many free hook ups over the years, so it's only fair to support bone with $1 when it could help them move up the charts.

i bought the single on itunes, but the previous leaked version is the one i actually have on my playlist.

...I agree with you on the preferred 'leaked' version, as well.

The ITunes one is still pretty dope IMO. Maybe I'm overstepping my boundaries, but perhaps a sticky of this thread would/could be good for the group? I mean, we're hoping they are successful with Warner and perhaps put out more than 1 album with them. Let's show 'em our support.

[shanebone]

i still cant believe they went with the boring beat, yawn! i really dont care if they add phadrea or whatever, just keep the beat fast and exciting. gives it energy, now the song turned to some slow jam ugh

[Mario Lopez]

Phaedra kinda feels like she came in randomly..it make the song too long...i mean its the longest hip hop song on itunes!!!

[The World's Enemy]

Bobby Francis

REGARDING THE SONG-"SEE ME SHINE",WE ARE WORKING HARD TO PROVIDE THE PROPER EDIT FOR YOU....LET'S KEEP THE FEEDBACK VERY CRITICAL BUT WITH RESPECT IN AN EFFORT TO GAIN THE END RESULT THAT WE WOULD ALL LIKE TO RECEIVE...WHICH IS SUCCESS FOR BONE THUGS-N-HARMONY & "THE UNI 5...THE WORLD'S ENEMY" ALBUM. WE CAN GET OUR CREATIVE INTEREST&OPINIONS HEARD AND CONSIDERED IF WE COMMUNICATE PROPERLY AS A TEAM!!!
