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
― OH NOES, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:10 (twelve years ago) link
haha that means the biggest blousy sapfest of all, "Marvins Room," is up next
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:13 (twelve years ago) link
gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd why won't he shut the fuck up
I don't care if this make me old, Drake is fucking terrible and should just be punched 24/7

the Lupe Fiasco + Trey Songz joint is kind of a jam
― www.myislamicdream.com (step hen faps), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:16 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i fuck w/ that song
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:18 (twelve years ago) link
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
― OH NOES, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:20 (twelve years ago) link
^^^^^^^^i know right!
(ha this was an xp but it applies to both)
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:21 (twelve years ago) link
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
― wil smif, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:22 (twelve years ago) link
tpp's list otm
― wil smif, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:23 (twelve years ago) link
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"
― OH NOES, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:23 (twelve years ago) link
haha

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
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:25 (twelve years ago) link
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
― OH NOES, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:27 (twelve years ago) link
racks & tony montana are the increasingly rare late-era innovations on the futuristic swag template
― wil smif, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:30 (twelve years ago) link
haha "grove st. party" and "bring it back" are my top 2 out of this list so it's a pleasant surprise to see you embrace both (although i decided to throw a vote to "ima boss" itt)
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:30 (twelve years ago) link
we got tons of wale in miami too cuz of the MMG thing
― v-shasty, Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:36 (twelve years ago) link
no i mean the pre-"no hands"/maybach music years when D.C. radio was playing mostly awful wale songs nobody else cared about
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Thursday, 15 December 2011 18:41 (twelve years ago) link
"that way" was obv huge everywhere

― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Friday, 16 December 2011 00:23 (twelve years ago) link
haha that is my sister and i's drinking anthem

great top 3
― bayou goo, Friday, 16 December 2011 00:37 (twelve years ago) link
i haven't heard the meek mill/ross actually. i should remedy that at some point.
― malcolm the tenth (furnace mane), Friday, 16 December 2011 00:38 (twelve years ago) link
ok that is kinda weird
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Friday, 16 December 2011 00:47 (twelve years ago) link
"niggas in paris" might be robbed..
― sisilafami, Friday, 16 December 2011 00:49 (twelve years ago) link
meek mill afaict has no traction here whatsoever
― malcolm the tenth (furnace mane), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:00 (twelve years ago) link
but like, that song had a huge event remix w/ khaled/tip/wayne/ross
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:10 (twelve years ago) link
he's from philly
― nice catch cuauhtemoc blanco niño (dayo), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:11 (twelve years ago) link
xp i didn't even know that til now. i only know meek mill exists cause of the internet
― malcolm the tenth (furnace mane), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:12 (twelve years ago) link
I was the "Niggas In Paris" vote
― www.myislamicdream.com (step hen faps), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:12 (twelve years ago) link
I though meek mill was mac miller
― www.myislamicdream.com (step hen faps), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:13 (twelve years ago) link
did the meek mill song come first or the lonely island song
― nice catch cuauhtemoc blanco niño (dayo), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:17 (twelve years ago) link
ok this is dope, not really sure how i feel about the prominent ross grunt tho
― malcolm the tenth (furnace mane), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:21 (twelve years ago) link
lol remember when some dude didn't think that was a 'thing'
― nice catch cuauhtemoc blanco niño (dayo), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:22 (twelve years ago) link
i think i was more just offended to learn that it is a thing, especially because i'd never noticed it before but now i can't un-hear it (unlike the Kanye Honk that ruined so many songs for me long before there was a name for it)
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Friday, 16 December 2011 01:37 (twelve years ago) link
great top 4!
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Friday, 16 December 2011 07:49 (twelve years ago) link
i don't really love "moment 4 life" but something about the way nicki enunciates "and i ain't lucky, i'm blessed / YES" totally gets me
― degas-dirty monet (lex pretend), Friday, 16 December 2011 08:34 (twelve years ago) link
oh god that line is the worst
― some dude (Mr. Stevenson #2), Friday, 16 December 2011 12:54 (twelve years ago) link
I don't know if I am sad or relieved that this poll ended before I could get through every song on here in the original order
also who the hell voted for "Marvins Room"
