This single was released in July 2016. It see’s D.R.A.M. back in singing mode, crooning over Charlie Heat’s harder than expected beat. He throws in some contemporary references (Pokemon, Instagram) while declaring his intention to date the girl in question.
[Intro]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey

G-G-G-Good work, Charlie
[Verse 1]

But by her reaction
You would think I been the man
You make it look easy
Even though it's cliché I saw you on your Instagram and
[Chorus]
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
[Verse 2]
Baby we can go out to the movies
I know that there's something you want to see
One thing 'bout me, I am a foodie
So you know I'll take you for a bite to eat because
[Chorus]
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
[Bridge]
Girl we need to go out on a date
We can really do a little something
If it's cool I'll pick you up at eight
We can really do a little something
We can really do a little something baby
Looking at this pretty face, it drives me crazy
[Chorus]
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
[Verse 3]
I just had to park my car cause I was finna crash the whip
Scrolling through my feed I saw you just had post a pic
I choose you like a Pokémon
I choose you, you're selection one
I got money, you got money too
So let's go half on rent
When I buy you a new purse it's cause you bought my kicks
I move fast like a brand new car
I move fast like a shooting star
If I say we married then goddamn we getting married
If you need it and I got it you can have it bitch I'm sharing
If you crying I'ma ask you why you crying bitch I'm caring
If you need me to look out for you I'm posted and I'm staring
Thou should never have another boyfriend I get jealous
Yeah, I’m all ‘bout spreadin’ love, but I get crazy as a felon
I choose you now you have to deal
But you're so cute you can make me chill
[Chorus]
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
I think you're cute, I think you're cute
Oh yes I do, I think you're cute
[Bridge]
Girl we need to go out on a date
We can really do a little something
If it's cool I'll pick you up at eight
We can really do a little something
We can really do a little something baby
Looking at this pretty face, it drives me crazy
Cute was written by Charlie Heat & DRAM.
Cute was produced by Charlie Heat.
I made that whole record on the spot. Charlie, he already had the beat. And I was just like, this shit is cute. I go, “I think you’re cute” and we just went on like that. We laughed about it, and then made it a real song.
Right after all the Ye stuff, I started working on my album, and I went to New York. I played the album for my friends, and they pretty much said it was horrible. That it sounded too much like a mix between everything [I produced] up until that point. It didn’t feel good enough.
I went home and mad...
