notes
A 4 saw supersaw lead cuts through the top of We Don't Play Around, detuned and filtered to sit just above the vocal without masking it. Approximated from The Fifth's production team: RedOne/Jimmy Joker/Teddy Sky's Euro-pop rig (Sylenth1 and Native Instruments Massive layered leads and supersaws), Free School and Jonas Jeberg's radio-pop synth stacks, all typical of 2012-13 major-label pop-rap.
