I don't understand what all the hype surrounding it is all about. It has some good beats and there were one or two good overall tracks. But I gotta say it's overrated, and they're probably selling all the coke they rap about to internet record reviewers.

Yeah, I don't really listen to much rap on the album level, but people talk so much about the Clipse I figured I had to hear it. And it's like Metacritic's 3rd-best reviewed record of the year (although that will probably go down once more reviews come in).

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 4 December 2006 21:42 (seventeen years ago) link

I might have just heard it too many times in too short a time frame, too.

Funny side story: My roomate M@tt (also at the wedding as he was standing in it) had never heard of the Clipse. His quote -- "what is that, some new mp3 player?"

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

I've never heard of them outside of the Internet.

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 4 December 2006 21:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Jordan -- do you have the whole Clipse record now?

Hey. The other two bands tonight are awesome too, though somewhat more "punk" than us, if you need more incentive to come out 2nite.

I like Clipse.

― n/a (n/a), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:09 (seventeen years ago) link

The Clipse record is pretty great, but it bums me out sometimes. I can't say exactly why. Well, maybe I can. It's viciously angry in a lot of places, and the life of a drug dealer does not sound like the happiest. That said, I keep coming back to it.

Their fine bitches, stripper bitches, and college ho's all like the dirty money (dirty money).

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:11 (seventeen years ago) link

I like the Clipse album because it is loud and obnoxious, like rap is supposed to be.

― n/a (n/a), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:11 (seventeen years ago) link

WEP WEP
What it do, what it do?

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Sorry. Like I said, I heard it an awful lot.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:12 (seventeen years ago) link

YSI, my peeps.

though somewhat more "punk" than us

Which is why I will be coming just for you guyz. :-D

― jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:13 (seventeen years ago) link

I believe you mean "WAMP WAMP."

― n/a (n/a), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Oooh, my thug pronunciation needs some work. Please Frosty don't hurt me!

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:16 (seventeen years ago) link

(And BTW, I don't need any more incentive to come see you guys play, although I do like teh punk bands. This is totally coming down to my relationship with the amount of money spent, beer consumed, and sleep missed this past weekend.)

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:17 (seventeen years ago) link

It's nice having a new boss. She likes my stuff, and doesn't understand why it doesn't get used. Which is what I want to know, too!

D/Led for irony's sake, if nothing else. Thank'ye!

― thtchr! (danno martinez), Monday, 4 December 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Jordan -- do you have the whole Clipse record now?

Yeah and I'm into it. I like how mnml the beats are. Any one of them coming from the Neptunes might be disappointing (except for Wamp Wamp), but as a consistent sound for the record it's serious.

I don't think it's loud and obnoxious, though I do like loud and obnoxious rap.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 00:11 (seventeen years ago) link

(I love Wamp Wamp)

i just ordered the three seasons of arrested development on a whim.

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 01:58 (seventeen years ago) link

That was the right thing to do.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 02:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I firmly support you in that difficult decision.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 02:32 (seventeen years ago) link

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:16 (seventeen years ago) link

That's more than on sale.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:17 (seventeen years ago) link

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Holy crap.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:21 (seventeen years ago) link

That just took care of a couple holiday gifts for me.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:29 (seventeen years ago) link

nice!

i am GIDDY over having just acquired that for myself for SO CHEAP.

― JuliaA (JuliaA), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh, excellent, Jordan. That's a fine idea. If I wasn't flat broke again.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 03:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Shit. How can I NOT buy it at that price? I feel bad because I was party to Courtney's buy Season 3 at Borders for around $20-some. Fuck. I'm trying to stick to a budget. Fuck.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 05:53 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, I am not going to buy it. But I better get off the internet before its siren song gets to me.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 05:54 (seventeen years ago) link

5 minutes left....

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 05:56 (seventeen years ago) link

thank you julia! i just got me some xmas gifts!

― t0dd swiss (immobilisme), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 06:10 (seventeen years ago) link

OK. It was still there after midnight, and I remembered that I had some Amazon GC credit on my account, so the complete set of AD is now mine, and my conscience is pretty clear.

Thanks, Julia, and I too support your decision.

Also: fuck you, FOX.

― crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 06:29 (seventeen years ago) link

joy = spread

Et vous, NYC?

Good morning, starshines. The earth says WASSSSUUUPPP?!?!?!?!?

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:21 (seventeen years ago) link

dan, you missed a very fine fake fictions show last night. i tried (in vain) to explain to nick why despite a few bumps it was my favorite ff show and now that i'm sober i think it comes down to focus. it was a very focused set and i liked it.

$1.25 beers never hurt either.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:25 (seventeen years ago) link

You mean like how Nick managed to unplug his guitar in one song and lose his strap in another or how one of our friends described us as sounding like "..you're about to drive off this cliff, but you have your seatbelt on.."?

I couldn't sleep last night. I finally got myself all wide awake to play, but that required drinking lots of coke and rum & coke. So then in bed my heart was beating really fast and I felt nauseous from all the smoke.

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:29 (seventeen years ago) link

But also, I enjoyed drinking rum & coke and look forward to Thirsty Thursday. Where are we going this time?

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I couldn't sleep either, I was too pumped up from the show. It was a blast.

I am working from home again today, whooo!

― n/a (n/a), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 14:58 (seventeen years ago) link

I felt nauseous from all the smoke.

sorry, that was probably all me, i was chain smoking last night. but even with those bumps i still thought it was a great set. there wasn't one moment where i didn't think it wasn't totally about the music. and i'm confused by my own use of the triple negative but i thought it was great set.

― otto midnight (otto midnight), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:00 (seventeen years ago) link

You'd make a good lawyer with those kind of triple negatives.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:04 (seventeen years ago) link

Sarah knows it was a good show, she's just fishing for compliments. You can ignore her.

― n/a (n/a), Tuesday, 5 December 2006 15:07 (seventeen years ago) link

how one of our friends described us as sounding like "..you're about to drive off this cliff, but you have your seatbelt on.."?

I think that sounds complimentary, actually.
