Something really interesting that I've noticed about modern rap music is that the subject matter is often about having fun, or being content, but the artists never sound like they're having any fun. That's why I'm honestly half-grateful for Pitbull's existence; say what you will, he knows how to party down. So it's doubly great when you can hear great artists making genuinely fun music.
The song features Busta Rhymes, B.o.B., and Chance the Rapper on the track, and each artist holds their own amidst the chorus. Chance handles the outro, which gets his point across in a simple and succinct manner. Meanwhile, Busta and B.o.B. talk about who they are and where they came from. Personally for me though, the thing that brings this whole song together is the chorus. It's just so enjoyable to listen to. The instrumentation is bangin', and everybody involved just sounds like they're having the time of their lives.
I guess what I'm saying is, stop talking about how you're having fun and actually have fun. That's the golden rule when it comes to lighthearted songs, not just rap music.
