i watched a 2 1/2 hour drone piece for basset horn and cello last night, and the whole time I was deconstructing Lil B in my head. Expect a booming post sometime in the near future

my roommate was tripping on mushrooms last night and he told me that he laid on our shag carpet and stared at the 'rain in england' record for like 45 min haha

he should have put it on imo

his brain would've melted

what does RIE sound like? is there anything dope enough to search for on it?

IT'S FUCKING AMBIENT

so thats a no then

rain in england is hilariously entertaining, all the beats sound like rpg maker default midis or some shit

^^super otm post

this is good!

what song is that looping?

damn that song hits

rain in england is worth a (1) listen if you are a fan, prob not if you aren't.

i was making fun of some dudes on a local music board for anticipating it the other day & feeling like kind of an asshole for it

but its pretty silly to expect it to be not super inconsistent or largely disposable like a huge portion of lil b music is that you can listen to for free on the internet

it's not inconsistent or disposable at all (and sounds nothing like lil b's youtube music), it's just kind of pretentious (at least as much so as lil b in earnest mode can get) and not very listenable

like, it's pretty obvious he put a lot of thought into the album but i can't exactly say making a rap album without drums was a good idea

yeah ok i guess i should have added 'very listenable' to the list of things you should not expect lil b music to be

Rain In England will make my top 10 this year most likely. I don't think it's the best thing Lil B's done but its an essential part of his continuing evolution. Not very listenable, but that's a good quality to me. It makes sense that Weird Forest put it out.

it is hilariously entertaining tbh

so this is like dior paint right?

i'm waiting to order it before i listen to it, but is there any actual good rapping on it? because I actually like lil b's rapping on his more conscious tracks so if the album is like that over "ambient sounscapes" might actually be good and not just in novelty sense

or is he just talking over "ambient" "new age" "mood music" which is kind of the impression i'm getting?

i don't think there's ANY rapping

how is it the best rap album album ever if theres no rapping tho

naw, he raps, just over ambient shit w/ no drums

the whole thing is b on his earnest swag tho...no hoez on dicks

I haven't heard either of the paint joints tho, so i can't really compare

kind of enjoying freedom!

is anything off rain in england as good as the sage francis track whiney posted in the goon thread?

who actually listened to the sage francis track that whiney posted in the goon thread?

who is sage francis?

swag

props to upper mississip for not being a snobby asshole like Sargent Slaughter over here

Sargent Slaughter

how did we come this far without this happening yet

idk but i've been hearing that shit since i was like 6 years old

i kinda like sage francis, not a ton, but honestly that track was doing sort of a "rapping over non-rhythmic kinda arty ambient stuff" but honestly for what he does i thought it was good and pretty affecting and personal.

it goes back to what i said upthread, i think that lil' b does shit that if it was some backpacker like sage francis did it would be considered lame because they are lame and lil' b is fascinating ergo everything he does must be fascinating because he's so fascinating.

but honestly that track was doing sort of a "rapping over non-rhythmic kinda arty ambient stuff" but honestly for what he does i thought it was good and pretty affecting and personal.

this is exactly why i posted it, but of course someone had to be all "UNNHHH BACKPACKER COOTIES" white guilt pathetic about it; and I could have bet money it would been j0rdan

and yes, like the whole noz-style argument that "rap has an avant-garde" is mega-stupid because there's people like Anti-Pop Consortium and Dalek and Themselves who make dope shit on the regular, but aren't "AUTHENTIC" enough for critics

what the fuck does white guilt have to do w/ thinking that sage francis is a cornball

for the record, if m@tt had asked, is 'rain in england' better than the new whoo da kid song that deej posted in the autogoon thread, i would've said "who listened to the new whoo da kid that deej posted in the autogoon thread?" except it would've been slightly less funny because clowning waka flocka's ipad carriers is not as funny as clowning sage francis

I think Belle And Sebastian are cornballs, but if someone who's opinion I trusted was all "Hey they're doing something different here that I think you might appreciate" I wouldn't scream "FUCK YOU, PUSSY!" and slam the door in their face

haha @ "ipad carriers"

I wouldn't scream "FUCK YOU, PUSSY!" and slam the door in their face

would actually like sarge and whiney to act this out via skype and post it for us.

sorry i didn't realize that my fairly obvious zing of sage francis was going to cause all this commotion

this has been very un-based of us

i bet B would really dig sage francis

haha @ "ipad carriers"

yes, haha @ that

I wouldn't scream "FUCK YOU, PUSSY!" and slam the door in their face

would actually like sarge and whiney to act this out via skype and post it for us.
