rolling gun sounds thread

That post is gonna serve as a bat-signal for poster "chinchillas they can fit on gorillas"

Listening to soulja boy's 'skate boy' tape. Not v good, but 'all gold everything' is entertainingly bizarre.

xxp jeezy had several hits before that point though, not really seeing that w/ tity boi. don't really see the analogy tbh unless you're saying one artist is more "legit rap" than the other

I'm not saying 2 chainz is jeezy level, my entire line on 2 chainz is that hes underwhelming relative to jeezy t.i. gucci et al, but this time last year no one knew who future was. Tity boi has been in the game for years and had one of the country's biggest hits four years ago. Who knows, maybe future has an atl-on-lock career in him, but thats not likely in the near future based on the material of his I've heard.

Imo no future tape is touching trap a velli 2 or codeine cowboy

both of these things seem irrelevant to me as it pertains to this discussion

You dont think "quality of released material" pertained to why t.i. could call himself king if the south? this isnt just about quantity of youtube hits but what ppl say about your material too

i personally like a lot more tity boi songs than future, but i don't think futures lack of "real atl pedigree" or w/e precludes him from being a big rapper in atlanta. i suppose you're looking at it from the perspective of the perceived quality of an artist's career-long output, which is kind of a weird metric for "biggest rapper in atl right now" imo

@surfboards if this works all is forgiven

its not that, its that he just doesnt have the catalog. a big hit single, a minor hit follow up and a not-exactly-acclaimed solo mixtape dont give someone 'biggest rapper in the city' status. cmon. its intangibles too

tebow boi

feeling a lot of h8 from gun sounds thread these days :O

lol forks

i'm just playing devil's advocate w/ future anyway -- not that there's really a definitive answer anyway

yah i mean obv this is inside baseball stuff to a degree -- and imo there's something a bit contrived about 2 Chainz spot anyway -- but that said, I don't think Future is posing a challenge quite yet

oh for sure future isn't even close to the biggest rapper in atlanta, i just thought deej's argument was a little weak. tho if atl does have a "biggest rapper," tity boi doesn't come up as a big contender. in year or two maybe

dont worry, ilu still c:

who else is a contender?

a post everyone can enjoy: did you guys check martorialist recently -- apparently the record scratch on "roller skating jam called saturdays" is in fact a sample & not recorded for the record by a dj :O

i'd never heard this but it's a single, p good

also i guess i'm way late on french montana "shot caller" but that's a sick song

"Highlights include: Webbie not knowing who is on Savage Life 3, not knowing any of the producers on the album, Webbie singing & not knowing how old his own kids are. Incredible."

so, pills?

That there's a good interview, besides the gum chewing.

"I be right wit my 2 yearolhhhuhuhuhuhuhhooonaaay"

what the fuck

his explanation for not knowing his kids' ages is incred

it's like he exists to make asher roth seem less wack

Isn't that...everyone?

everyone makes asher roth seem less wack by comparison? that makes no sense

I was drunk when i wrote that. I guess i'm Asher Roth

mac miller looks like he won several nintendo tournaments at some point in his life

I can only dream of winning nintendo tournaments

the "money on the floor" video is amazing

kinda coming around to that as something close to a classic -- everything about that beat is just... deep

yeah it totally is in the vein of a "Sho Nuff" or something, KRIT has only improved w/in the last year & it makes me lol thinking about how much people wanted to overrate his 1st few releases

even his rapping on that is stronger, i think, than it's ever been

HYPE CYCLES

im telling you guys, give asap rocky a chance to grow (or not) but dont confuse novelty for quality

i don't think anyone HERE is actually doing that...

lol wait who are we including in this exactly

people who called 'krit wuz here' a classic -- this was the forum/comment section buzz for awhile

oh lol ok i mean i was thinking of a certain critic who was a big booster of 'the last king'

did you read what i wrote about it tho?

it was a predictor that he had next, not that he had already arrived

yeah that's true

i mean i loved TLK too fwiw i wasn't calling you out or anything

It’s a tape that succeeds as much because you’re watching a rapper develop as it is about how great he could one day be.
