the most prominent music this year in the vein of past thread titles is future, but i'm not sure what we would do w/ that -- it could be something about "racks on racks" but that's already kinda pretty far in the rearview

this Pfork ASAP Rocky review is weird
Unavoidable in the conversation is the enduring absence of a New York commercial force under 30. Since the emergence of Dipset and G-Unit in the first half of the last decade, NYC rap aspirants have largely fallen into four categories: ringtone wunderkinds ("This Is Why I'm Hot", "Chicken Noodle Soup"), technically skilled personality voids (Papoose, Saigon), artful traditionalists (Action Bronson, Roc Marciano, Ka), and Maino.
Nicki doesn't count/get a mention?

and once again an album of new material released by a solo artist on a record label is called a "mixtape" for some inexplicable reason

It's not just that tumblr rap is lame that makes it a bad one, it's also not that popular
Crackers rapping was sort of a theme this year lol

are you still siding w/ surfboards that asap rocky is popular
im also curious why u think mac miller is worth defending but i figure thats the least interesting of these qs

oh i didnt realize that was a response to the cracker thing not the tumblr thing, not that u made it partic clear
but uh i thought it was obvious from the 'lol' i was joking about that so i dont know why you'd take it seriously
that said, did you not see mac miller's sales numbers? He blew wale out of the water

lol my position is "i'm not exactly sure why you feel the need to talk about mac miller all the time"
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 10 November 2011 19:40 (twelve years ago) link
i dont know that i've been bringing him up 'all the time' on ilx or something, but his is one of the biggest-selling rap albums this year so
― AFAP Raggett (D-40), Thursday, 10 November 2011 19:43 (twelve years ago) link
What were Mac's numbers? I was dragged to a Mac Miller show a few months ago, dude certainly has the rabid high school fanbase on lock.
― "I know its hard to hear but I'm a Realest." (rennavate), Thursday, 10 November 2011 19:43 (twelve years ago) link
mac miller's gonna do like 180, which is 20k more than wale. v impressive numbers obv.

yeah i don't think this necessarily matters as it pertains to ilx or w/e
idk you're the one that brought him up this time? i just observed there are tons of white rappers out getting coverage right now, which is basically true

imo childish gambino is almost worse than mac miller in that his shallow lil wayne imitations and shrill shoutiness is considered to be somehow "good rapping" while mac is more general fun/party stuff. def watch for this dude to claim an important place in the fratrap contiuum
loving the king louie tapes recommended upthread btw, thanks for that
― chilli, Thursday, 10 November 2011 22:15 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, I'd agree that Mac is better than Childish Gambino, but Mac is almost a carbon copy of Wiz Khalifa for white frat houses... is that any better than being a Lil Wayne imitation?
― "I know its hard to hear but I'm a Realest." (rennavate), Thursday, 10 November 2011 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
yes, if only bcuz gambino is aping the lowest point of wayne's career
