nah but for real his verse on the "hustle hard" remix is awesome

busta verses in 2011 are just sad to me
and you haven't even heard his verse on the cher lloyd album about being forever young
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Saturday, 10 December 2011 19:33 (twelve years ago) link
this is a recent busta rhymes verse that i really enjoy

is "chopper in the car" called something different than "chopper in the car"??
― bene_gesserit, Saturday, 10 December 2011 20:05 (twelve years ago) link
ok i guess it's "john" and it's my pick.
and "marvin's room" is the song about drunk-dialing your ex - people like this song as more than a novelty for real?
(i spend 95% of my time in the car listening to urban rap radio so i am familiar with these songs in some capacity but they never say the titles /also didn't realize drake was on 75% of them.)
― bene_gesserit, Saturday, 10 December 2011 20:29 (twelve years ago) link
"Marvin's Room" love is the weirdest of all to me, because even if you don't like Drake as a person, even if you don't like Drake as a rapper, at least he's made some pop songs qua pop songs & "Marvin's Room" is a meandering, directionless sexless slow jam
― joey joe joe junior shabadoo, Saturday, 10 December 2011 21:05 (twelve years ago) link
i mean it is kind of a hilarious song because it's all serious and dark but it's about drunk dialing someone and telling them you are sleeping with a bunch of other women!

in spite of the awkward lines his performance is def moving--not in that it inspires sympathy or pity but, like, i can relate to being in that pathetic position and it really hits that nerve. captures the vibe of being bummed out & reaching out perfectly; the beat sounds like the bathroom of a club, the way the keys seep through and the volume increases in hesitant bursts. the phone call is pretty devastating

i mean presumably he's calling someone he's, like, in love with; kind of serious imo

"sounds like the bathroom of a club" is the new "watching a party ending through smoke"

i <3 "roll up"
― v-shasty, Thursday, 15 December 2011 16:12 (twelve years ago) link
the chorus of "roll up" is like the most rhythmically incompetent vocal performance of 2011

yeah i could see that -- idk i love the production on that

I mean, I'm going through in order and I am actually psyched/happy about hitting Lupe because at least it isn't a turgid dirge, to the point where I am tempted to give his album a chance despite the massive negative reaction I had to "The Show Goes On"
someone should put some Paxil in Weezy's weed

kind of telling that a wholly anonymous generic track like "Racks" is coming across like the greatest thing in the universe thanks to exposure to stupid ass Drake
― OH NOES, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:18 (twelve years ago) link
okay "Bring It Back" is a genuinely YES song, the first I've hit on this list (of the ones I didn't already know) in a while

racks is a pretty unusual song, maybe not as unusual as tony montana but they're both ugly and rythmically contorted in a way most or all futuristic stupid fruity swag ever is

the big takeaway I'm having so far is that I didn't think that 90% of hip-hop would spend 2011 trying to unsuccessfully merge "I Need Love" with "Ms Jackson"

well considering that that style's been done to death for 3 years in a row there's not really anything unusual about that anymore

srsly though, coming to Waka after the indefensible SHIT I just sat through makes me want to go back and apologize to you guys for all the mocking; if only I'd been paying attention to what the other choices were I'd have gotten it
