i had one beans record that i really dug, can't remember the name but it was more like a weird electronic jazz record or something, some "real" jazz dudes played on it...cool stuff but not much rapping iirc

if anything my taste in rap is as informed by adapting tim & moonship's ideas to rap music as it is being influenced by ethan & dk (nev mind the influence of serg / noz / etc). i know e likes to make it seem like he invented me or something but thats basically his own self aggrandizing ish

(& s reynolds, and academics like elijah wald, & hugely kelefa, who has probably more directly influenced by approach to rap writing than anyone, but w/e)

i know swag cru has a low tolerance for art-rap, but the beat on the new Beans is on some "Mahogany"/"Tried By 12" shit that I looooove
you should post stuff like this anyway, i think most people who read this thread enjoy a bit of undie rap as long as its not too stale & backwards-looking

is das racist rap? is the cee-lo/craig street mixtape?
― predeep natsvitika (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:29 (thirteen years ago) link
i listened to the roc marciano track on the das racist mixtape, seems like rap, tho only one of them is really passable at it as far as i can tell. dunno the second one
― zvookster, Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:33 (thirteen years ago) link
hey wait a minute, who gives a fuck how long it took to build the sistine chapel, I'm not an art historian but surely if anything, it's the frescos that weren't 'built' in a day.

have we not talked about gunplay on the rolling gun sounds thread yet?
since this is getting released ive decided we def went w/ the best thread title, btw
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:50 (thirteen years ago) link
surfboards posted about it -- do you read what other people post or
also das racist is rap, yes, for the purposes of this poll
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:56 (thirteen years ago) link
oh i just forgot -- yeesh dude we're already hundreds of posts deep & there was 0 discussion about it iirc so
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 22:58 (thirteen years ago) link
or near zero
"rollin" w/ waka on the gunplay tape is a classic. gunplay is cool imo, my faith in gun sounds rap 2010 being bolstered already

i've only heard one, gaine greene, which deej recommended to me and i dig it...very sleazy charm!
he's also a deceptively good rapper...he's so slurry and lazy sounding that it disguises that he's got some really good rhyme patterns and lyrics
― the medina green preservation society (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 4 January 2011 23:23 (thirteen years ago) link
xxp the mixtape is not that great so don't worry about him becoming like some sort of '11 swag cru cause celebre. and that song was great

coke wave is a 'classic' altho its a bit inconsistent for me. does have 'i warned u' though

just need to lol again at whiney's whole 'ethan invented hating nerd rap' thing -- is he guilty for yelawolf hating on it too? how influential do u guys think ethan really is? does hipster love of jeezy all come back to ground zero ilx nate patrin disses? the internet must know whiney's thoughts
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Wednesday, 5 January 2011 00:58 (thirteen years ago) link
yelawolf didn't hate on it, iirc he just said it's something to move past
― zvookster, Wednesday, 5 January 2011 01:00 (thirteen years ago) link
sounded a bit nervous that ethan would hate on him tbh
i just said he was the most vocal hater of it on ILX, you dumb dickbag
