Big Sean's fourth full-length, I Decided., is a significant evolution in terms of depth and maturity. While not as exciting and immediate as his great third LP, Dark Sky Paradise, I Decided. is an important step for the Detroit rapper, demonstrating his ability to grow. Even with appearances by Eminem, Migos, and Jhene Aiko (as TWENTY88) -- and with various assists from big names like Kanye West, Travis Scott, and Beenie Man -- Sean is never overshadowed. I Decided. is solely his show. The album's title serves as a reminder of a major turning point in his life -- when he decided to follow a different path -- and over 14 tracks, listeners are treated to the interplay between "old" and "new" Seans. The Don's flow remains strong, but it's the lyrics that shine most, perhaps his most introspective and reflective to date. On the de facto Jeremih-assisted opener, "Light," Sean realizes "counting money never feels as good as counting blessings." Later, on "Halfway Off the Balcony," he acknowledges that a "job is way more than a salary" and, when it comes to love, "chemistry means way more than anatomy." These epiphanies are refreshing, especially in the context of the album's narrative of personal development. "Voices in My Head/Stick to the Plan" is the album's climax, a Gollum/Smeagol-style split personality back-and-forth that builds to a light-speed third verse that sets up the final stretch of I Decided. "Sunday Morning Jetpack" is a bright and breezy trip down memory lane, while the big Migos feature, "Sacrifices," finds Offset, Quavo, and Sean exhausting themselves with reminders of what they've been through to get to the top ("we all come from sacrifice"). Above all the personal triumph and self-awareness, the heart of I Decided. is "Inspire Me," a touching dedication to his mother, Myra Anderson. A "Dear Mama" for 2017, it pays respect to his upbringing and the woman responsible for keeping him grounded. She appears via phone recording on the album closer, the standout moment "Bigger Than Me," which manages to be both an ode to his dear mama and a showcase for his efforts for Flint, Michigan's water crisis. The Flint Chozen Choir provides the uplifting hook, while old-school Kanye-esque production elevates the track into the heavens. It's the most inspirational song on an already affirmative album, connecting his past, present, and future with a newfound mantra to live life to its full potential. While I Decided. may not light up the club like his past efforts, it shines a different, more nurturing light onto deeper parts of his soul. ~ Neil Z. Yeung

商品の紹介

ソロ前作が全米No.1に輝いたカニエのレーベル=G.O.O.D. Musicのプリンス、Big Seanの新アルバムの2枚組LP!
発売・販売元 提供資料(2017/05/01)

Rolling Stone - 3 stars out of 5 -- "On I DECIDED, a mostly searing collection of introspective rhymes and light trap beats, he comes one step closer to a more self-assured sense of his space in the pantheon of today's most powerful and famous rappers." Entertainment Weekly - "Sean applies his dexterous flow to a bevy of musical styles and lyrical themes to easily maintain interest on his own." -- Grade: B+ Clash (Magazine) - "Musically, I DECIDED. is Sean's most succinct project to date, full of spooky atmospheric synths and trap-infused drum tracks courtesy of a cast of beatmakers that include Metro Boomin, DJ Mustard, DJ Dahi, Key Wane and Amaire Johnson."

4枚目のアルバムが到着。デビュー当初は比喩表現を巧みに用いてクリスピーにラップするフロウでラップ・シーンを騒がせ、前作ではウルトラ・キャッチーなシングルなども飛び出したビッグ・ショーンだが、今回は〈一人の男が自分の人生を振り返り、そして新たな人生をもう一度歩む〉という複雑なコンセプトの下でアルバムを作り上げるというチャレンジに挑んでいる。もちろん、ストーリーに沿った内容でありつつも、単曲でのハイライトは多い。"No Favors"は同郷のエミネムを招き、お互いの並外れたラップ・スキルを見せつけ合うという好戦的な一曲だし、シングル・カットされた"Bounce Back"も、思わず探りたくなるトリック満載のスリリングな一曲だ。コラボ・アルバムも好調だったジェネイ・アイコもトゥエンティー88名義で参加し、アルバムに緩急をつける重要な役割を果たしている。ほか、話題のミーゴスやドリーム、そして旬なプロデューサーのメトロ・ブーミンらが参加。
