Who is most defensible of these goon derided rap artists

well maybe just one

oh gosh

Halcyon days

it seemed to me you were questioning why i would review his album? i listened to it & gave it a score based on how good i thought it was? what does that have to do w/ gucci being in jail? he released a solid if unexceptional rap record, he was a buzzed artist & i reviewed it with a cynical eye

oj had dope material & a singular aesthetic, he fell off & wasn't a career creative, same as french montana, but i'd take him over half this list

i voted for him

idk who Makonnen is tho

is he anime

like kitty pryde

i literally hadn't heard a single ilx's goon's opinion on Makonnen, positive or negative, on the board or off, before this thread. odd inclusion.

o shit hes the club going up on a tuesday guy im switching my vote to him

that song owns

I decree that whoever voted for Makonnen actually meant Tyga

i reviewed it with a cynical eye

Sorry man you voted for tyga

oh shit yes otm didn't realize he was the club going up on a tuesday guy either

i read the whole juiceman thread kudos everyone

Makonnen is yung lean w better beats and less awkward racial politix

Still a 6//10 talent at best, total one trick pony

Tbh if you don't like kitty pryde idk how you can like makonnen, basically the same "trick" but no awkward racial politics, better beats, and no paedo fans

I'm assuming

u can like one but not the other because theyre different people who have different songs

theyre separate entities i guess is the point im trying to make

well yeah those posts were somewhat tongue in cheek for that reason but i do think its a matter of degree

i mean: When I first learned of Makonnen, some of my more DIY rock-inclined friends expressed surprise: he'd been known around Bushwick for a while as part of the zoned-out band Phantom Posse.

going to redo this thread but i'm keeping in makonnen and oj; i hate the former, whiney hates the latter, both are 'hateable' to a segment of goons

i'm also adding:

childish gambino
big sean

anyone else? I know Lex hates Ross but that's not happening. Charles Hamilton? Or is he too negligible to include. Iggy Azalea? I guess I should include her.

Gudda Gudda

feels mean for some reason

iggy sure

gudda is an ilx hall of famer

kid ink?

Too late but he's boring anyway. Tyga maybe but idk, just too blank.

anyway:

Who is most defensible of these goon-derided rap artists MK II—the Final Poll

haha 2 threads really

see i didn't even know Makonnen had hipster cooties, i vaguely figured he was some talentless teen who caught a hit by accident Soulja Boy-style

Figure this is the thread to ask

What IS the deal with Hopsin

Moral Orel + Jesse Lee Peterson + ICP = Hopsin
