yeah...to me a rapper heading in a possible discouraging direction is like T.I. doing a song like "Whatever You LIke" for the first time and hitting #1 with it, like you know that's gonna influence future decisions. doing one generic Swizz Beatz song that gets floated out on an unofficial mixtape is probably not a harbinger of anything.

also love that "Man Of The Year" sounds nothing like typical Bangladesh aside from having some awesome live bass playing like "Lemonade" (lame hook though).
― some dude, Sunday, 13 June 2010 19:49 (thirteen years ago) link
what was good about him recording w/ storch though was that it felt like those dudes were stepping into his world, not the other way around. 'sounded too much like the mixtapes' was not a criticism when his mixtapes are some of my favorite music of the past couple years. i do think bangladesh is a really good foil for him in terms of balancing this tension tho -- no question 'lemonade' is his biggest hit this year bcuz he & bangladesh have a similar kind of weird relationship w/ 'pop' & pop

& yeah the hook is the only bad part
fwiw im not trying to get ms cleo cool points for this -- i mean we all know like w/ basically all non-scarface artists, dudes will have career arcs & at some point it will be the beginning of the end. maybe im too much like simon reynolds saying timbaland was 'over' in like 1999 or whatever here but i do think its something to keep an eye on

i think maybe this convo would make more sense if Storch seamlessly blending into Gucci's style didn't make it on the album and Swizz forcing his style on him did instead of vice versa.
― some dude, Sunday, 13 June 2010 19:52 (thirteen years ago) link
im talking chronology -- swizz track just dropped, storch track was last year
― its like why GROCERY BAG and not saddam? (deej), Sunday, 13 June 2010 19:54 (thirteen years ago) link
if this is an indicator of a future direction -- etc
i like that dudes like forks arent feeling 99% of the gucci beats so far -- if hes gonna convert forks-style rap fans i want it to be over some massive 'stay fly'/'what you know about that' undeniably dope ish & not some bland NY horn boom bap
― its like why GROCERY BAG and not saddam? (deej), Sunday, 13 June 2010 19:55 (thirteen years ago) link
i mean, i know gucci has always spit over a wider variety of beats than hes gotten credit for & in that sense i have no problem w/ a one-off horn sample (just like i dig '30 inches' remix & a couple of the more trad sounding joints on the cold war tapes) im just sayin
― its like why GROCERY BAG and not saddam? (deej), Sunday, 13 June 2010 19:57 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah who knows...T.I. kinda broke through to a lot of audiences with a Swizz track but then he pretty much went back to his own style and crossed over more with those. (xpost)
― some dude, Sunday, 13 June 2010 19:57 (thirteen years ago) link
would love to hear a gucci equivalent of 'whatever you like' tbh

i haven't really kept up w/ gucci's 2010 output at all, especially since nothing i heard about Burrprint 2 made it seem like a must hear, so what are the like the consensus recent tracks that are considered essential?

― its like why GROCERY BAG and not saddam? (deej), Sunday, 13 June 2010 23:53 (thirteen years ago) link
"soldier" and "atlanta zoo" are my favourite of those - is "coca cola" the same as "mi casa, su casa"? shawty lo's verse on that is the best imo
