Ty dolla ign chris brown10/24/2023 ![]() ![]() The man can turn water into, uh, molly-water. He made one of 2013’s best R&B songs devoted to being mildly annoyed that two girls he was playing showed up at the same club (conceptually, the yin to “Same Girl”’s yang). He turned a question regarding optimal hoe-to-cabana-square-footage ratio into a sun-dappled ratchet canticle. Still, Ty’s music is pure MDMA in R&B form: sleazebag afterhours fade into bleary watercolor sunrises. (Chris Brown’s infuriatingly catchy “Loyal”? A Dolla $ign song in all but name.) Not to say he didn’t earn it: he’s a multi-instrumentalist descended from funk royalty, and easily one of the best R&B songwriters out, even if he doesn’t often get his due credit. ![]() It’s probably no coincidence that Ty Dolla $ign’s peak-namely, the stretch between his magical 2012 Beach House tape and its 2013 sequel-happened to overlap with molly’s reign as rap's intoxicant du jour.
