It Was All A Dream for JBadge

This post will be highlighting his first single from the album, All A Dream. With this release he is the most ambitious that I’ve ever heard from him. Where it is ambitious is in the sample and, or interpolation. It is a west coast sounding version of The Notorious B.I.G.'s Juicy, you know, the classic that starts with “It was all a dream, I used to read word up magazine.” While it is ambitious because the song is a classic, it is also a smart move, because as soon as you turn the song on, you can’t help but feel reminiscent, whether it be from being outside at the time, or from your parents playing it in the house. With that being said, it will also attract older listeners, so every generation can enjoy All A Dream at the cookout.
