danny brown is a much better rapper than kid sister. i don't rlly listen to either though. danny brown is something i kind of respect from a distance but have trouble listening to at length

deej has pronounced objectively! rmde
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 19:04 (twelve years ago) link
well, kid sister is basic as fuck with no pop instincts, so
i guess you could argue that danny brown is a more actively abrasive rapper, so it's a bit more nuanced than simple sliding scale, but cmon

i disagree. and you yourself admit your opinion is based on like one verse o_0
― lex pretend, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 19:19 (twelve years ago) link
kid sister is fantastic at bringing a breathless workout energy to dancefloor-oriented tracks. her verse on the juke remix of "motivation" is one of my favourite things this year, as well as her taking on the "work them" beat

um that is totally not wtf at all. ron paul is totally the candidate of choice for political rappers, at least the ones contrarian/anti-populist to make a point of not being obama fans
― sandbox banned socks (Mr. Stevenson #2), Wednesday, 7 December 2011 04:26 (twelve years ago) link
i'm not surprised at mike not being a fan of obama, but ron paul? i feel like he's smart enough to know better than that.
― furnace mane, Wednesday, 7 December 2011 04:31 (twelve years ago) link
yeah maybe i think less of the guy who thought 'mike bigga' was a good idea? the ron paul profile imo is often perfectly intelligent clued in person with JUST the right pinch of crackpot.

was anyone besides me taking the pepsi challenge w/ kendrick lamar recently? i don't wanna harp on it but his stuff seems very SMART and TASTEFUL and SERIOUS in a 2011 blog rap way that i admire from a distance but have no real interest in engaging in
― sockness, just sockness (Mr. Stevenson #2), Wednesday, 7 December 2011 18:31 (twelve years ago) link
on one listen it kind of came across like a lupe fiasco without quite so much worthiness (but also without a "kick push"-level track that grabs you by the ear and hooks you in)

jay electronica had like 2 tracks that had everyone proclaiming him the next coming of nas. i don't think its really comparable
i definitely prefer schoolboy q from that crew, but Kendrick's record engages w/ a lot more of the modern sound of hip-hop. I agree that people looking for a ~deep rapper~ have put way more on him than is fair, but he does a really good job imo of stitching together Lupe-ish ambition with a Drake-esque atmosphere and then being very good at rapping. I recognize the two of these things sound like something bad but ... i like it a lot more than Drake or Lupe, at any rate.
