the sample goes "6 foot, 7 foot, 8 foot, hut"

yeah, "bottoms up" feels like it's been huge but really has just kinda been hanging there

ah, hadn't seen that

it's sort of minor i guess but i like that it's called "six foot seven foot" instead of "6' 7"" -- the former sort of leans more on wayne's lovable playful side as opposed to generic swagger stuff

lol @ finally -- a rap song with no R&B singer by a rapper who's never had a major chart hit before rising to the top 10 about two months after the song's release is pretty damn fast.

it had been hanging just outside the top 10 for 2 or 3 weeks.

LEX: Chery Lloyd signed to Roc Nation!

yeah just saw! hoping it's true, there are always so many rumours doing the rounds about x factor contestants and roc nation would have had to buy her out of the syco deal :/

will.i.am tweeted that he'd recorded a song with cher while he was in london, too
Yeah, Jordan, and others who commented, very much welcome with any contribution at all over at the dedicated k thread.

i don't see the two or so rap songs getting plays from pop stations as being a new renaissance for the genre or anything though -- rap still has an audience and might be integrated with the current aesthetic but i doubt it'll ever again be the driving force it was in the 00s

i don't think anyone claimed that?
― The Reverend, Friday, 31 December 2010 02:05 (thirteen years ago) link
just saying, it seems to be a popular sentiment among the fratboy demographic that wiz and kid cudi are part of a "new movement" in rap which i don't think will manifest itself in any real sense
