yeah i was getting at how a) that's part of why it's obnoxious when he does it and b) that's why nobody else on ilx ever says it.

kmt = caribbean diasporic slang that has become part of the lingua franca of british urban youth. i dunno, do your own research. tons of people i know use it

dunno if british is right lex. Seems like its a part of london only, certainly not used across the whole of the UK

I've only ever seen two people do it in real life: An enormous Jamaican dude outside a pub who insisted on telling me about how he once produced the Clash, and a skinny junkie kid who I think was looking to steal my wallet...

i've seen plenty of people from manchester and birmingham use it

I would not have been mad at FACT if they had put Frank Ocean at #1
However, they put Tyler there instead, so hell yes I am mad at them
― OH NOES, Friday, 9 December 2011 14:28 (twelve years ago) link
also everything I could find on Spotify has been added to the FACT playlist

i don't care about tyler's album but "yonkers" is a pretty undeniable "oh shit" banger of a track
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:25 (twelve years ago) link
don't care, fuck Tyler
― OH NOES, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:25 (twelve years ago) link

don't care, @fucktyler
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:29 (twelve years ago) link
"yonkers" beat is terrible, banger status denied
― Mr. Stevenson #2, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:29 (twelve years ago) link
man i heard the "yonkers" beat as the bumper music on rap & r&b stations for months, get outta here
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:30 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah the "Yonkers" beat is fantastic, no matter what else you may think of Tyler.
― I left my login in El Sandboxo, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:31 (twelve years ago) link
i kind of think as a "banger" as something you can dance to, "yonkers" is too...dour
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Friday, 9 December 2011 15:33 (twelve years ago) link
I thought "Pumped Up Kicks" would make the final Billboard list but otherwise expected.
― Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:34 (twelve years ago) link
yeah me too -- #13 not too far off though

Is "Firework" not a banger?

that Billboard list is making me rethink my policy of letting my wife control the radio stations in the car; that is basically what we heard all year in the mornings
― OH NOES, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:52 (twelve years ago) link
"Firework" honestly makes me think of the noise made when you pull the sides of a balloon's mouthpiece and slowly let the air out.
― dog latin, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:53 (twelve years ago) link
"Firework" is self-evidently the worst song on that list IMO
― OH NOES, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:54 (twelve years ago) link
"firework" is a contender for worst song EVER imo
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Friday, 9 December 2011 15:56 (twelve years ago) link
and "Super Bass" is self-evidently the best.

i would agree w/ both of these things except for the thing where "ET" is also on the list
― v-shasty, Friday, 9 December 2011 15:58 (twelve years ago) link
I haven't heard Super Bass, but I bet I'd like it.
― dog latin, Friday, 9 December 2011 16:00 (twelve years ago) link
lol, I have much time for "ET" completely against my better judgment; I think I just like Katy Perry the most when she's being a stompy non-preachy monster
― OH NOES, Friday, 9 December 2011 16:02 (twelve years ago) link
"super bass" was the song i had most in-the-wild moments to this year. rapping every word at so many house parties <3
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Friday, 9 December 2011 16:04 (twelve years ago) link
Just the other day one of our students said, amazed, "You like 'Super Bass' and not Drake?"
― Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 9 December 2011 16:05 (twelve years ago) link
I'd probably rank the Billboard songs like this:
1 "Rolling In The Deep" - Adele2 "Party Rock Anthem" - Lmfao Featuring Lauren Bennett & Goonrock6 "Grenade" - Bruno Mars4 "E.T." - Katy Perry Featuring Kanye West7 "F**K You (Forget You)" - Cee Lo Green8 "Super Bass" - Nicki Minaj9 "Moves Like Jagger" - Maroon 5 Featuring Christina Aguilera5 "Give Me Everything" - Pitbull Featuring Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer10 "Just Can't Get Enough" - The Black Eyed Peas3 "Firework" - Katy Perry

i like the chorus of that song a lot, don't really like xtina on it at all but what else is new
Someone at work keeps singing it at me because they know it winds me up.
xposts oh you cunt.

when i was in russia i heard "moves like jagger" like literally 5 times a day. i kind of...came round to it :(

just change the lyric to "louis jagger" in your head, might make it funnier.

it could be worse, if I had mod powers here I could have made them all autoplay

the only one of those songs that i know for sure i've heard is fuck you; i think maybe i've heard party rock anthem and firework also.

oh i've heard super bass too, nevermind.

Was the angle Drake-love or pop-hate?
― Ned Raggett, Friday, 9 December 2011 16:12 (twelve years ago) link
really "Firework" is the only one I find unbearable; the one that gets consistently underrated is "Grenade"
― OH NOES, Friday, 9 December 2011 16:13 (twelve years ago) link
"If you like that thing, then there's no reason why you can't love Drake too."
