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
idk have you heard "Auto Manipulator"?

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

258 new answers and every other thread is tumbleweed
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

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?

Black Swan = generic hashtag Young Money tripe

I think the bitch/dog walker one is eyerolly, the other two I don't mind.

I'm not gonna pretend to be a srs hiphop person and maybe that's part of the reason I (/the rest of the tumblr whites community) approach this differently from the goon community, but pretty much my argument begins and ends w/ "imo...some of these lines are clever"
