you realize that it took "wasted", for instance, like a whole 5 months to peak?
& btw "all the way turnt up" hasn't peaked yet

it's amazing how much sarge has learned since the heady days of "throw it in the bag"

i wasn't around then obv but i think the implication is that you posted effusively about singles and then when other people started digging them you hopped off the wagon. not sure if this is true or not.
naw, just aversion to hype/contraristan combo
― jhøsh? (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:09 (fourteen years ago) link
i dunno i definitely can be obnoxious about "this song's been out forever where have you been" but i dunno about hopping off wagons -- it's rare that i turn on a song after i like it, even sometimes if something gets oppressively overplayed it'll still be in my top 10 at the end of the year
― goodness gracious great walls o gina (some dude), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:12 (fourteen years ago) link
that wasn't my implication, just j0rdan's misinterp
― jhøsh? (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:13 (fourteen years ago) link
yo dudes this isnt contrastanning -- its a good song *i guess* im arguing that its the kind of song you get tired of after awhile. just kinda got one hook, which is pretty incessant
― average gangsta rap from average gangstas (deej), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:14 (fourteen years ago) link
yeah it was a xpost to j0rdan -- i can live w/ the contraristan tag although like anyone i'll say my opinion is my opinion and its relationship to hype is incidental most of the time (xpost again)
― goodness gracious great walls o gina (some dude), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:15 (fourteen years ago) link
sometimes you guys gotta keep in mind tho that for non-west coast rap, I live in the absolute last place to get it
xp: not accusing you of contraristanning for this, more w/r/t the nu-bay stuff that I find really boring
― jhøsh? (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:16 (fourteen years ago) link
anyway "turnt up" is 100% garbage, don't know why rappers ever started enunciating everything like Tom DeLonge

how am i 'contristanning' because i like something?

however that non-word is spelled lol
at least nu-bay dudes can actually rap, jerk music fan

at least tom delonge doesn't wear american eagle branded shirts
lol at pulling that card during a discussion of "All the Way Turnt Up"
― i think ur a contraristan (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:21 (fourteen years ago) link
I find the amateurishness of the jerk raps charming tho (same with "Turnt Up"). The Bay guys are just competent enough to fade in the background. I don't really get how you shit on Gibbs for being average gangsta rap from an average gangsta while praising these Bay dudes for the exact same.
― i think ur a contraristan (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:23 (fourteen years ago) link
shit getting heated! :D
sarge coined "contraristanning" right? i don't think any of us are using it right tbh, i'm confused
― joe ic?y (k3vin k.), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 03:24 (fourteen years ago) link
don't worry, no one's gotten called out by their real name yet

some of the bay dudes are average, obviously, bu they're also not on the front cover of the LA weekly.
the jacka is exceptional, & he managed the cover of murder dog, but its not like anyone 'around here' (at least in the e-blog world that has made yelawolf a 'star') pays attention to murder dog anyway
sittin in the range with the frog eyes / aint nothin on me but all eyez

gonna move all discussion of bay rap off a thread on which it obviously does not belong

the big pop rock thing that comes to mind for me is orianthi. i quite like her. i haven't seen much discussion of her on here (or really anywhere else), so i have no idea how she's being received otherwise.

it's pretty hard to misuse -- someone who stans for shit for the purpose of being a contrarian
... no i just moved it to a thread that was relevent dude. which it didnt seem in the rolling pop thread considering its pretty much underground rap
― average gangsta rap from average gangstas (deej), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 06:11 (fourteen years ago) link
oh lol i thought this was fruity swag, my bad
― vincent gallogina (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 06:11 (fourteen years ago) link
& theres nothing 'contrarian' about liking bay area rap. there are lots of people who like bay area rap
that wasn't me

sorry for hardmanning ;-)
Kesha's Tik Tok is not only pop #1 but it's #36 on the Latin pop chart. Triste (= sad)
― curmudgeon, Tuesday, 9 February 2010 18:55 (fourteen years ago) link
iirc it's not uncommon for big gringo pop hits to chart on the Latin pop chart at all
― i think ur a contraristan (The Reverend), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 19:01 (fourteen years ago) link
I guess so. I know my local Latin pop radio station is now playing more English language pop-dance #s.

They even have autotune.
BoA received the honorable "U.S. Billboard Publishers Award 2009" at the first annual Japanese Billboard Award Ceremony.
After that, she performed her latest song "Possibility (featuring Miura Daichi)." Unfortunately, the live band made a mistake by starting the song in the middle part instead of the beginning.

hey al, if you're reading, what are the numbers like wrt "lemonade" & airplay? i can't see the chart on billboard.com and don't have any firsthand knowledge since i won't be back in miami until march
also waka is making a run at hip-hop/r&b top 10
― birdman mumia (J0rdan S.), Saturday, 13 February 2010 01:20 (fourteen years ago) link
"Lemonade" just entered the R&B top 20, I hear it on the radio a lot and definitely feel like it's gaining a lot of steam at the moment
