ferrari music is boring
burrprint 2 is boring
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:46 (thirteen years ago) link
not really?? ive been pretty clear about the kind of stuff i like about gucci & thats like his least-pop mixtape, w/ his least funny lyrics, its just a 'rapping clinic' c. tom breihan which is cool & impressive i guess but not really entertaining
lol i'm just saying that you went from "there are boring parts" to "this is so boring" in the matter of like 90 seconds

does ferrari music count as a 'mixtape' of his -- isnt it just odds & ends comp
no im really being serious!!

im not the only one who thought mr zone 6 was underwhelming dude

what do you think burrprint 2 is?
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:49 (thirteen years ago) link
i don't get how you can praise raw street shit off of 'burrprint 3d' & then turn around and call "cowards & soldiers" or "dats my life" or "stove music" 'boring', let alone more boring than "everybody lookin"
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:50 (thirteen years ago) link
it was unreleased material released as an 'official mixtape' -- i thought ferrari music was mostly odds & ends that had leaked out on the other tapes & internet compiled together by a dj

all of those songs are at least as good as your beloved "frowney face"
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:51 (thirteen years ago) link
i think it can be seen as a falloff year in that his output has been rel limited & inconsistent (burrprint 2hd & the appeal being the inconsistenc) but mr zone 6 & jewelry selection are totally continuing along the path of greatness of burrprint 3d & the movie 1
also as you yourself have said, he's best measured by the strength of his best individual tracks, which are just as strong and fresh & creative this year
― samosa gibreel, Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:51 (thirteen years ago) link
'everybody looking' is not boring!!! its super weird & awesome & pop-y & queasy and one of his best tracks this year

oh wait thats something else youve argued

i have to remember that you defended the keyshia cole & bobby valentino songs on 'state vs radric davis'
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:52 (thirteen years ago) link
lol @ 'your beloved frowney face' -- his 1st verse on that hits harder than any verse off mr zone 6 bar none period -- post lyrics of a better one
― deej, Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:53 (thirteen years ago) link
the first verse of "cowards & soldiers"

this is like slam poetry now or something lol
i think stuff like "rooftop" is a better meeting of writing & weirdoness than grumble mumble stuff like "poltergeist"
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:57 (thirteen years ago) link
or like, "normal" > "gross" as far as one-word repetition gucci songs go
man no way does this verse stand in the same universe as 'frowney face' -- a verse w/ college puns?? vs actually emotional autobiographical raps w/ statement of purpose -- not even fair
― deej, Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:57 (thirteen years ago) link
"dats my life" is as hard as anything on 'burrprint'
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:58 (thirteen years ago) link
gross has a way better beat
― deej, Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:58 (thirteen years ago) link
than normal
college puns are lol and creative!
this is some interesting hair-splitting for someone who can't really distinguish the thousand shades of quality and nuance between most Gucci stuff and just gravitates to the obvious standouts. all i know is he hasn't really made any songs on the level of "Lemonade" or "Wasted" this year (although since "Lemonade" charted as a single this year it's definitely gonna be in my top 10)
― Danble Perritration (some dude), Thursday, 4 November 2010 02:59 (thirteen years ago) link
'dats my life' is just acrobatic rapping & its cool as that but its not even close to his best song! this is what i meant when i talk about songwriting -- his choruses on zone 6, the beats, they're all so dry & flatline compared to 'gross' or 'trap talk' or certainly the best stuff on 'burrrprint.' theres no beat on 'mr zone 6' coming w/in miles of 'my shadow' and no verse is as emotionally compelling as 'frowney face'

corny. you knew that song last year
hes def made songs better than 'wasted' this year although not nearly as many that would appeal to as wide an audience
― deej, Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:01 (thirteen years ago) link
like you can call "dats my life" 'too writerly' or w/e too tom b snarl-rasp but like that beat + those verses are as good as shit like "excuse me" & "trap goin crazy" (which i love)
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:02 (thirteen years ago) link
college puns are lol & creative but youre comparing it w/ a real talk verse that bodies the most heart-on-sleeve z-ro verses -- all the trauma beneath the surface of the straightfaced lyrics, the its like a calloused lid on some extremely powerful experiences. its biggie-level autobiography
― deej, Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:03 (thirteen years ago) link
tom b snarl-rasp
btw did you read the vado review
some dude have you herad 'its alive'
― samosa gibreel, Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:03 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah i'm not talking about strictly about song quality but about memorable songs that feel like hits (beyond like Trey Songz sings on this so radio plays it etc.). although i guess i'm one of the only people here that's always really liked "Makin Love To The Money". and i always do year-end singles lists based on when a song was a hit, doesn't matter if i had an album it was on the previous year, don't know what's corny about that.

its alive is my favorite verse of his this year -- incredible stuff. i also think that drumma boy track that just got a video is pretty epically great

i like makin love to the money now btw
i mean irl -- the song is cool too
y'know i'm not sure if i have heard "It's Alive" -- nobody made The Appeal sound too erm appealing but i guess that is one song people recommend from it
― Danble Perritration (some dude), Thursday, 4 November 2010 03:04 (thirteen years ago) link
there are some totally dope beats on 'jewelery selection' like "first song back" & "electricity" but the "gross" beat is incredibly generic
