Fresh off of the announcement that he will be the new president of Kanye West's G.O.O.D. Music, Pusha T is taking advantage of his prestigious position to unveil a new Timbaland-produced single "Untouchable." The new track features a sample from Notorious B.I.G.'s verse in Pudgee's 1995 record "Think Big."
The Timbaland-produced beat is haunting and dark with booming percussion, fitting for the style of rapping and voice that King Push has. Pusha comes in with straight heat, spitting two lengthy verses, while the Biggie sample takes care of the hook.
He comes out with lines about money, cars and his recent accomplishments.
"Adidas gave me a million and that don't bounce / The president of G.O.O.D. Music has been announced / A quarter million a year and that don't bounce / I'm in the score of these movies, I'm losing count," he raps with a certain swagger.
Push described how the track came together with Timbaland on Genius, who apparently has a studio in Virginia, but never uses it and lets Pusha record in there for free.
"He gave me the beat as is. He gave me everything with the B.I.G. line in it. It was based around rap and feeling untouchable. He called me with that untouchable attitude, and I definitely had the untouchable rap attitude, and attacked it that way."
Pusha also describes how he came to helm G.O.O.D. Music and the reasoning that West gave for handing him the keys to the empire.
"Just take care of the artists, and the business, and let's monetize off of what G.O.O.D. Music does. We're in it for the art, the music, touring, we've got to be innovative in our shit. But let's bring it all in, with the corporations, so on and so forth. Let's put it all together," said Kanye one night over the phone.
