![]() ![]() “Wild Thoughts” is mediocre and people will probably forget it in a month or two but it’s fun to have on in the background at your summer BBQs so I guess good for DJ Khaled. Even lyrically, the original had more depth and complexity. And if so, why not just pull the actual sample from the original if you can’t achieve a comparable sound in your own track? To have the guitar in “Wild Thoughts” be so empty and thrown to the back of the track cheapens the song as a whole and I always feel myself wanting to return to the far superior “Maria Maria”, which does everything “Wild Thoughts” does but 10 times better. I sometimes wonder too if the guitar on “Wild Thoughts” isn’t actually a recording but instead MIDI guitar. ![]() Santana’s original “ Maria Maria” is almost 20 (YES 20) years old and despite this, its production is far superior to “Wild Thoughts”, which sounds like it was sort of thrown together quickly on a computer with an old drum machine. One major problem I had with this track was the recording and production of the guitar. The track is supposed to be all about seductive sideways glances and dark and smoky nights and all I get from Tiller is a sort of disinterested, “hey girl can I buy you a drink? No? K bye.” Like seriously? 'Do You Mind' This massive record featuring Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown, August Alsina, Jeremih, Future and Rick Ross has been certified triple platinum. The instrumentation itself is already too boring for a vocal delivery like he brings, leaving one with the overall feeling detached emotionality. Bryson Tiller’s feature seems sort of attached on and too mellow and emotionless, which pairs well with his own tracks but sounds more amateur here, especially compared to Rihanna’s style in the first two verses. It also matches the theme of the song and its overall message of not so subtle drunken seduction. And I am especially on board for Rihanna in a variety of sheer clothing in the music video, which captures well the essence of what her voice brings to this track. Her voice is low and rough, effortless in its delivery of fun, sexy debauchery. It screams summertime, with all of the people dancing and having a genuinely good time while getting ‘white girl wasted on that brown liquor’ aka D’USSÉ.The best part of this track is the Rihanna feature, plain and simple. ![]() If you haven’t already seen the video, be sure to watch it below.

The song will be on DJ Khaled’s Grateful and was written by the trio, PartyNextDoor and DJ Khaled’s infant son Asahd. The original is obviously a gem, but according to the stats, DJ Khaled’s remake of the song might be tied in terms of YouTube views very soon. The track is a remix of Santana’s iconic “Maria, Maria” song that was originally released back in 2007. DJ Khaled, Rihanna and Bryson Tiller have recently released their “Wild Thoughts” video and the song is everywhere. ![]()
