Future - Honest (2014)

the Andre 3000 song, for starters. It's his best verse since -- hell, I don't even know.

i guess i thought he meant stuff that was super ATL influenced on the beat? i dunno. even i know where Andre is from

i haven't even heard that song, pulling it up now

wait, is this the "bitches" song they did at Coachella? kinda disliked that one

i dont like the andre song but apparently i'm pretty alone on that

nah it's pretty weak. def. one of the dud post-Idlewild Andre raps too

it's definitely kinda jarring to have Andre 3K show up with by far the most ignorant shit on a supposedly ignorant rapper's album

Don't like that song

is Future supposedly ignorant?

tbh I haven't listened to Andre's words, just the flow. This album is long. "I Be U" was the other standout besides "Move That Dope."

is Future supposedly ignorant?

to people that think every southern rapper younger than Andre is destroying the genre, yeah

So...onion a/v club commenters, racists, and Ghostface a decade ago

well and lots of white people my age (37) who think "good" rap ended with public enemy, atcq and/or outkast and all new stuff sucks...i see the point

I'm trying a HARD SHIT at the front

lol at the idea that there isn't still a strong and very vocal army of rap purists (of all ages) who see people like future, rich homie quan, young thug et al as destructive forces

one might even go as far as to say that the real racist is the guy who thinks only white people hate on "ignorant" rap

when rappers sing thats bad, give me a rapper who doesnt do singing any day of the week folks

singing rappers make me feel some type of way

I still say that the Move That Dope beat is vicious. Put some other non-song-ruining guests on there (Tip, Kendrick, even Yo Gotti or the Gucci Mane) and the song would have blown up massively. Pusha was the wrong call, Pharrell's verse is dope but weird and Casino, as much as I love him, doesn't help either.

yeah this is right, the beat and hook still elevate it enough but that's despite the verses (i like pharrell, casino is better than he's credited for but only in terms of energy, future is only adequate, pusha is horrible). i assume remixes might solve this for us in the end

hahahaha this kanye verse

^^^ I've been cut and pasting that since 2007.

"i won" is a drag even before that verse happens

I Won is good but a bit too much of a concept song - it doesn't quite feel personal enough. I loved it before I listened to it in headphones because I thought Future sang "I wanna be a trophy" instead of "I won me a trophy". Sorry folks, I was misled.

"i wanna be a trophy" would be so much better! and then turn it into a ciara duet à la "anytime"

I thought Future sang "I wanna be a trophy" instead of "I won me a trophy"

this is news to me also

dreams crushed itt

why isn't there a Ciara duet on this? Pretty lame imo

Maybe it's "I wanna be a trophy" so he can compete with Young Money + Drake.

Till one day I put an angel in your ultra sound
I wanna dip that ass in gold, I wanna dip that ass in gold
I made it over NBA, NFL players
So every time I score it's like the Super Bowl
Baby, we should hit the south of France
So you could run around without them pants
I put that glacier on your little hand
Now that's the only thing without a tan

the only rapper who could pull this off is diddy

future and andre 3k work surprisingly well together but the production sounds so tinny on my headphones (on spotify maybe this is why)

wrote a review here

the horrifying efficiency of that Kanye verse is just amazing. it's like he worked for years to make every word, every line as repellent as possible.

if he came out and said that he was trying to write the worst rap verse in history with that, i would do a 180 and worship him as the one true king

what are the good songs on this? i just got to the kanye one and i see drake is on the next one, and i'm not doing this anymore

the one after the drake track

and the one after that

and so on and so forth

And then go back and listen to the singles again because they're great

Can anyone find the non censored version on spotify, this is too grating w every other word scratched out

oh i mean "honest" is the shit, i'm pretty sure i was the first person to post that to ilx, but i basically only f/w his ballads :(

that's nuts dude

that is insane

the Drake song is cool, I mean his singing/lyrics on it are very Drakey but still

antiques!

Soooo this is still growing on me and my favorite album in a good while.

i think noncensored is on there, there's a little pull down menu on the album's page where you get to select whatever version though i think the default is edited

if you search for an indvid track you can find the explicit that way

i don't really like future and i'm just curious but thanks whiney

also don't even front like u don't use spotify

haha so here's where i admit i kinda love 'benz friendz'
