Big Sean seeks to set the record straight on 'Overtime'
Big Sean performs during the 2018 Our Music Festival at the Greek Theatre on October 20, 2018 in Berkeley, California.It’s difficult to fathom how much misery one has to have in their heart to hate. Hating on rappers is often a beautiful and cathartic exercise, but part of the fair exchange should be rooted in said rapper being oblivious or obnoxious enough to warrant vitriol. It’s what differentiates a Lil Uzi Vert from a Nav, a Polo G from Chance.
If you don’t like Big Sean, that’s fine! But the man seems impossible to loathe. His brand of celebrity is so unobtrusive that the worst Ariana Grande could muster was that he wasn’t a match, on kiss-off anthem and the biggest single of the year ” in the accompanying music video). As a rapper, he’s supplied the industry with a steady supply of hits that are silly-to-charming at best , and obvious lay-ups at worst .
But for all the accouterments, “Overtime” ultimately succeeds because Sean’s narrative arc finally feels like a path worth treading. “I didn’t take a break, my nigga, I broke,” he raps during the first half of the song. “Broke my heart, broke my soul, don’t cry for me though.” During an, Sean opened up about his recent mental health struggles. “It was a point where I just had to put a little more effort into myself,” Sean said.
For years, Sean was the guy who turned a freestyle for Kanye West into a career. That story quickly ran out of fumes, and the predictable travails of celebrity took its place. It got uninteresting fast, but “Overtime” points to something different — or at least something entertaining enough to warrant the hate.
