i'm confused, did you get the idea somewhere that i LIKE asap rocky's music and was defending it?

were you feeling gucci gucci? i mean when it comes down to it, the real truth of the matter is just that 'gucci gucci' is dope & most of asap's stuff is not

imo

"gucci gucci" is a better song than "peso" sure, i agree w/ that. i have no idea what point you're trying to make or what you're trying to get me to 'admit' though. again, did you get the impression i was sticking up for rocky?

no, but it seemed like u were trying to point out some kind of hypocrisy or w/e in my perspective but it really is as simple as that

not hypocrisy, just tedious inability to understand anything beyond the worldview you've set up around your own tastes and agendas

idg what puts you above the same thing? or anyone on this board? arent we always expressing these kinds of things? wtf is your point?

i dunno it just seems like any parallel i drew between those two artists gets instantly knocked down by the objective truth of "but she's GOOD and he's NOT"

instantly? i didnt even mention that until the most recent post; i already made arguments abt audience, style, and relationship w/ media/critics prior to even bringing up quality, which happens to be an aspect u agree w/ me about, mr. nitpicker

well i think her song is mildly more listenable/quotable than his, i'm not all SONG OF THE YEAR or w/e

al you're just being a dick right now

sorry dudes, i just didn't understand why deej was all "review this asap rocky song for me it's important"

i don't actually think you're being a dick, i was just making a callback to the juiceman thread

lmao

fwiw he is being a dick & no one asked him for a 'review'

i really do actually want to know Al's opinion on this artist & his trajectory & etc., do u think hes the next drake etc., but he'd rather try to clown & nitpick at unimportant bullshit or malign me or my motives or opinions so

you know asking me to listen to listen to a track posted on gun sounds and offer an immediate opinion of it is a lost cause, man, i don't do that shit

but ok i've got it on -- this is better than "peso" but i dunno maybe years of hearing hundreds of local mixtapes just makes me realize how dime-a-dozen cats like this are. are people REALLY looking at him as having a Drake-type career? that makes zero sense to me, on any level.

i actually prefer peso but i think something about clams casino beats began and ended with the first few lil b tracks i heard him do

well i don't listen to lil meme so i'm not real familiar with this guy's sound

i like the clams casino beats on that asap rocky tape - don't see how it's more 'branded' than most other producers of the moment. now the rapping on the other hand...

i checked for the new 2 chainz too and found it embarrassingly bad mostly.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eJSRH7fNFY

this is an amazing track tho

but yeah the 2 chainz isnt touching trapaveli 2 or codeine cowboy

weird i loved a lot of stuff on new 2 chainz, frustratingly the most heinous lyrics are in the first half but on otherwise hot songs & there was some really good stuff on the second half (addicted to rubberbands thru the jadakiss feature is a good run). i really like his personality, sleazy sense of humour & his verses are solid for the most part

gonna give it another go - not sure i made it to the 2nd half

"griming..............see that's when you mix grinding...and timing together"

what do you guys think of tha joker? his flow here has a bit of that swishahouse thing riff raff bites, this youtube has like 6 mil views & it was recorded when he was 17 (ca 2009) so we can talk about how amazing it is that he's just a kid a la odd future, lol

his latest tape just dropped & imo this one is p dope

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bW7VUFIUXAc

this is 'blow stacks' another jam off his record

too many luger/fake luger beats on it but there are some jams
i think j0 would probably like a fair amount of this, its p fruit swagged out in parts, R&B choruses & etc.

i fear he might have 2 chainz disease where half of what he says is clever and half of what he says is 'clever'

his video for the song 'pot head' has a comment about voting for ron paul that has 112 thumbs ups o_O

anyway, this guy aint the next asap rocky or anything but he has some pleasant fruity swag throwbacks

i fear he might have 2 chainz disease where half of what he says is clever and half of what he says is 'clever'

this is pretty much every punchline rapper ever, isn't it?

ha yeah

i fear he might have 2 chainz disease where half of what he says is clever and half of what he says is 'clever'

can you draw a plain distinction between these two or does this mean "clever no-quotes is when I like it, cleve with quotes is when it bugs me"

c'mon man saying 'clever' or 'smart' or something in quotes clearly means not really or not as clever as they think it is, that's not that hard to figure out

it's up to you to decide whether i'm being helpful or 'helpful' here

'clever' in quotes = "window pain"

c'mon man saying 'clever' or 'smart' or something in quotes clearly means not really or not as clever as they think it is, that's not that hard to figure out

ok fair enuf

'clever' in quotes = "window pain"

this isn't accurate tho - the quotes imply that somebody thinks it; even Eminem knows "window pain" is chump change

so wild that fruity swag is already considered throwback

ha well i dont think it really is i just mean in terms of ilx interest. its not like when we ignored roscoe dash he wasnt carrying the torch. or stuey rock or whoever

this dr seuss flow is weak as shit

i dont typically link to my blarg but at s0m@nyshrlmp i'm doing a best big krit beats poll feel free to contribute if u have opinions 4 u

i cant agree w/ that xp

i like a fair amount of this joker stuff, yeah -- it's VERY 2 chainzy but that's cool w/ me
