rolling gun sounds thread

The gibbs is way better than the asap imo

I'm really conflicted abt 2 chainz although it sounds p much as I expected

yeah the meek mill is excellent. I like the production on freddie gibbs better than asap for sure, it's just he has too many kinda smooth cuts for me, which isn't really my thing, so i prefer the asap cos of the style rather than the quality.

meek mill just has that something about his voice that connects - j0rdan discussed this in his review, it's something that plenty aim for but when someone has it, it's just POW. don't even mind the generic lex luger beats really. what i find interesting is the way he crosses WAKA-style energy with complex narrative without sacrificing either.

is it just me or does he bring the best out of rawse, too? maybe it's just something about how their voices contrast that makes me more amenable to rick ross's elephantine galumphing as a foil to meek's nervous energy.

i feel like codeine cowboy & trap-a-velli 2 > the new one

zvooks, good catch but i think i was trying to say i thought he was wack
maybe too subtle

btw, i predictably like the roots/krit collabo a lot

screwed hooks have been all over rap since still tippin deej. u sound a bit like "i don't like how this new rapper uses pieces of other records on the hook, what's up with that?"

this is partly right, but the thing about ASAP is that he isn't -- i think even too ppl that really like his music -- an amazing rapper qua rapper. and i think if you're an amazing rapper, you can get away with relying heavily on c&s hooks, but with ASAP (and tons of other rappers) it might be a sign that he just doesn't have that many ideas for hooks right now, and that wouldn't be good

yeah there's something to this. the interplay b/w their two styles really works.

Those are literally not s and c hooks, though. It's a dude talking slowed down, but not our a scratched hook, more like what mf grimm does in "scars and memories"

Like, the normal s&c hook is a sample

right... well they're screwing his voice instead of a sample, and not chopping it. it's not that big of a distinction. the end results would be pretty similar.

stuff like "my chick bad" and "black mags" are just the rappers pitched down, but yeah they're used like samples whereas this is just dude rapping pitched down, i know what deej means.

yeah i dont think it works for them xp

well typically when someone says s&c hook i'm thinking of, like, the hook to still tippin, where its a sample slowed down for a hook

anyway, pedant overload. jordan was totally otm about the french montana hook on this new pusha t

it wasn't pedantry: it turned out u had more specific criticisms than "pitched down hooks suck"

forks: it's the "hilarious" pun on wack, beloved of hundreds, that's embarrassing! typos and misspellings aren't embarrassing.

thats not all i said in the first place, though

ok dude

anyway why is no one talking about the bo deal track i posted that shit is ridiculous

the french montana hook on this new pusha t

! love it

the gucci & v-nasty track is pretty crazy yall

doing a song with V-Nasty is one of the most Gucci Mane-esque things Gucci Mane has ever done

i've listened to two Future mixtapes a lot but can't see myself really listening to this 2 Chainz one

i'm really, really pissed that v-nasty didn't call riff raff

btw deej i was thinking last night that future is prob a challenge to your claim that 2 chaaaiiinz is the biggest rapper in atl right now

riff raff bon jovi doesnt collab

oops. i mean *rap game

future is a non-entity

who checks for that dude's bars? no one

what kind of weird thing to say is that

ppl check for his... songs

2 chainz definitely has a career/career prospects beyond a couple singles in a way future doesn't

that's probably true but we're talking about the biggest rapper in atlanta right now

biggest RAPPER.

Future is a star but hes like the most anonymous cipher of a hitmaker 2011 has seen

This thread is a non-entity

you rep for everything ever im actually kind of shocked you ventured to diss 2 chainz here

I'm deading surfboards and coming back as a FREEBANDZ stan.

dude I just let these people cook and occasionally play their music in the background, it's not life or death.ASAP rocky didn't take the last $3 million on earth. I got a lot of shit to drink and need new shit to play. All this hating is way more energy than focussing on the next thing

When I'm gone submit rubber band business 2 as my top vote

biggest RAPPER.

well alright. bizarre distinction to make, as future is popular, and he raps, but okay.

anyway, pedant overload.

posts very much out of character

with her n-bombs and some more of his 'wasted' style lol white boy songs they could end racism together.

this thread delivers on so many levels

Vnasty and gucci is the most predictable surprise of the day imo

Idg how rapper vs hitmaker is a bizarre distinction at all

well it's not necessarily one, unless you're talking about popularity
