"THAT is so sad"

hahahaha

"producer" don't mean much anymore

lmao that tweet

I like Clams, up to a point, but he's definitely better suited to Lil B than ASAP

NOT THAT I CARE

he sounds like he's 13

Yeah, being all dismissive and dickish about it is nagl.

His songs SOUND reallllly bad imo.

I'm with Clams on that one. Audio fidelity is not what he's about and he was obviously being besieged by bitrate nerds

With the type of beats he makes, audio fidelity should be a concern.

I'm with Number None on this one.

idk enough about purposefully abrasive music but i think you can make abrasive, low quality sounding beats... in high fidelity, as opposed to just having shit bitrates. idk not that it matters to me and it's obv part of clams' appeal to lots of ppl.

those people are dumb

if its part of your aesthetic, then make it sound distorted, but then release it in high bitrate so we can determine if its 'aesthetic' or 'laziness' bcuz i highly suspect the latter

yeah but when you consider the fact that youtube is Lil B's primary release platform bitrate doesn't really come into it

Yeah definitely, just that when you hear a clams song on ASAPs tape right next to another one thats done right, the difference is apparent and distracts from the overall quality of the project.

my biggest problem is that - afaict - clams is total one-trick pony.

limewire is an endless source tbf

Can't believe Clams never heard of Soulseek

my biggest problem is that - afaict - clams is total one-trick pony.

truth bomb i said the same thing earlier today

is the trick searching Limewire

i'm no clams stan by any stretch of the imagination but i think he less of a one trick pony and more a guy w/ a "sound". his good beats all sound similar but i don't think they all rely on the same trick.

tbh after whiney said it was basically like PM Dawn beats i can't really hear it any other way

i know dj fresh sampled it too, anyone remember on which song ? (prolly stalin or nate)

A$APs first verse here

reminded me of 3 Stacks last verse here (3:40)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wl3rM3AlC0

xp i think fresh prob sampled it more than once even, SOS/Jam and Lewis was like his core inspiration for a year or two there. he's moved away from that tho

yeah p much

i <3 that clams "blue" & "cold" quote so so much

sometimes i forget how dope The Recession was. so good

^^^FRI NITE DRINKIN MUSIC

feeling it

i love Jeezy's voice. some days i almost feel like he could guest on a High on Fire album

i really like the new gibbs but i'll tell u what, when jeezy's voice hits that record its a charisma/energy explosion

i spent like 2 hours yesterday just jamming every jeezy song on my ipod

if its part of your aesthetic, then make it sound distorted, but then release it in high bitrate so we can determine if its 'aesthetic' or 'laziness' bcuz i highly suspect the latter

ha yeah the point is he didn't really have an aesthetic preference as much as he didn't know the difference

i discovered this random comp in my itunes (feat. the jacka, messy marv, husalah etc) and am enjoying it v much

I find this hard to believe tbh. But since he samples random mp3s on limewire, at least some of his sources are likely to be shitty bitrates anyway.

Clams tweet to me is kinda like when Skyler said she was doing Bettiche's (sp?) books in Quicken on Breaking Bad...seems too stupid to be true!

this whole asap rocky thing is basically kreayshawn all over again with deej taking the opposite side of the argument tbh

deej is playing the role you all cast him in! you made him this way!!11!!!!!

ha al otm

Al thats totally wrong this is more the clipse than kreayahawn

i don't see how it has anything to do w/ clipse

Critics were unified in their backhanded dismissals of kreays "skills" but the phenomena of her getting 23 mill youtube hits and driving traffic for tons of readers was unavoidable.asap rocky has no more than a mil. hits on any song, big fader features and the internets busiest music critic describing his multitude of influences

there isn't even remotely close to the critical fandom for rocky as there were for clipse

you finding one random blog that no one has ever heard of or will ever hear from again calling asap "the nirvana of rap" isn't even remotely close to what was happening w/ the clipse circa 06 -- the whole comparison is just backwards

asap has important ppl behind him in the industry and in the upper reaches of the press, but that's about it. neither of those two things was true about the clipse.

yeah a lot of this convo is about overnight success, lack of groundwork, focus on the rapper's eye-catching image/videos, getting signed off one song and a couple months of hype, things that don't really apply to the clipse

Asap rocky is being taken seriously in a way kreay never was. She had an actual hit that eventually made it to radio
