just occurred to me that a crispin glover would likely be as good a rapper as childish gambino, but danny glover would likely be better

/too old for this shit

i don't understand why this artist is apparently the only one people want to discuss in the sandbox?

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:15 (twelve years ago) link

258 new answers and every other thread is tumbleweed

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:15 (twelve years ago) link

because the only other ilx baiting record is by a dude already discussed to the point of having nothing interesting to say, whose record was made dull by eminem

if you ain't gonna wash it, i ain't gonna eat it, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:19 (twelve years ago) link

that doesn't really answer the qn. why do you want to talk about this guy so much?

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:21 (twelve years ago) link

i started an entire r&b thread and no one posted in it!

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:21 (twelve years ago) link

i don't even understand what joke that's meant to be

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:26 (twelve years ago) link

because he is a relevant comedian/entertainer/rapper/writer who is easy to lol at and is also on a tv show many of us like?

of course we know you hate comedy, so maybe you don't understand.

big popppa hoy, Saturday, 3 December 2011 14:27 (twelve years ago) link

oh i didn't know he was on a tv show, i don't watch tv. not sure how to turn it on tbh. why do you want to lol at bad music instead of talking about good music?

kmt @ comedy obv. no one should try to be funny, ever

dr. strongo, Saturday, 3 December 2011 15:32 (twelve years ago) link

yeah a few months ago there was a whole revelation on some thread about lex being against the entire human pursuit of comedy

i already regret not just being 'some dude' again (Mr. Stevenson #2), Saturday, 3 December 2011 15:34 (twelve years ago) link

comedy is conceptually abhorrent to me

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 15:37 (twelve years ago) link

lmao

your voice of treason, Saturday, 3 December 2011 15:37 (twelve years ago) link

lex is right. why are we spending all this time talking about childish gambino when we could clearly talk about how insane lex is

Mordy, Saturday, 3 December 2011 15:45 (twelve years ago) link

i once dreamed of a career in comedy but i gave it up once i realized i could never create a character as funny as the lex

i already regret not just being 'some dude' again (Mr. Stevenson #2), Saturday, 3 December 2011 15:47 (twelve years ago) link

i'm not funny! i don't do funny

lex pretend, Saturday, 3 December 2011 16:09 (twelve years ago) link

if you think you get to decide that then that probably explains the root of your problem

Is lex one of them indirect Neil Hamburger comedians

well tbf the implication was Kanye West and maybe something like KRS-One, or whatever has recently made a Pitchfork list.

Cunga, Saturday, 3 December 2011 17:53 (twelve years ago) link

KRS recently made a P4k list?????

Wow I am out of the loop.

"Alright, Gambino is a mastermind, fuck a bitch to pass the time
Mass Appeal, orange rind, smoke your green, I'm spendin' mine
The beat is witches brew, but beware this shit is potent
E. e. cummin' on her face, now that's poetry in motion
Yeah, Gambino make it work, I'm the boss move somethin'
Yeah, this cool fuckin' suits me, swag two button
Yeah, these girls be actin' crazy when they're dancin', Black Swan
I ain't fuckin' at the club, put your clothes back on
This beat is a disaster, 9/11 this track
Rappers wanna battle me, I have to mail their heads back
And my clique make that dinero, so it's time to meet the fuckers
I am runnin' this bitch, you are just a dog walker"

jesus I thought you guys were cherry picking the bad lines or something like ILX can do now and then, but holy jesus, this whole verse is almost Shaquille O'Neal level rap

this friend of mine said this was his favorite rap album of the year. like I have to seriously question the friendship now.
