do you think it would be possible for me to find an indefensible line in a rap song you like

uh, dude, we wouldn't isolate particularly bad lines if there were particularly good lines on there to balance them out

you guys heard it here first -- iatee thinks mac miller >>> boldy james
― joey joe joe junior shabadoo, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 22:20 (twelve years ago) link
also, iatee, those lyrics are actually mistranscribed
― joey joe joe junior shabadoo, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 22:21 (twelve years ago) link
and fuk you very much shakey
right that makes sense to me and I do the same thing. I don't even like mac miller, just saying that the awfulness of that line / gambino gets overstated, there are lots of awful lines in the world.
I have never even heard boldy james I just googled the first thing I saw and have heard half a mac miller song in my life.

i dont know, in isolation the 'hips stir' line is p terrible

lol wasn't trying to be dick or anything, just pointing out that, y'know, people argue with you on goon threads! this is not a bad thing.

i just thought it was funny that iatee chose a guy who writes some of my favorite lyrics (although the effect is dulled by writing them out, to a degree) for this. i mean if its appeared on a jeezy album as "i hug the block"-type raps have, it's hard for you to say its an original concept, but he does such an incredible job w/ it imo, by transforming it into an actual love song
― joey joe joe junior shabadoo, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 22:28 (twelve years ago) link
it's pretty groanworthy
iirc it comes on one of the better songs on the album, altho it's hard to keep them all straight

the Boldy James song (which I've also never heard before until just now) is totally better than this garbage wtf
― Shakey Mo Collier, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 22:29 (twelve years ago) link
and yeah those lyrics are transcribed incorrectly

at the end of the day any rapper can drop a clunker, but it takes a real herb to string them together

the funny thing about mac miller is that he really doesn't have outright horrible lyrics like ya boy gambino, he's just remarkably boring & worthless
― v-shasty, Wednesday, 7 December 2011 01:09 (twelve years ago) link
and to think that y'all spent all this time arguing over "hipster/ hip ster"
let me drop some real gems on you

haha mind you I was trolled into this thread
'people like different things' shocka. I think there's a certain amount of fronting going on when a so-so cheesy pun aimed at tumblr whites / kegstanding sorority girls is ******the worst thing ever******, esp. considering that you listen to a lot of music w/ similarly cheesy puns, just ones that aren't aimed at the same demographic.
― iatee, Wednesday, 7 December 2011 03:39 (twelve years ago) link
oh yeah i didn't see where you were specifically summoned to this thread haha sorry
― sandbox banned socks (Mr. Stevenson #2), Wednesday, 7 December 2011 03:42 (twelve years ago) link
imo in any medium where wordplay and obnoxious displays of cleverness are currency, there's always going to be a fine fine line between a good pun and a horrible pun, and it just kinda feels like you're pushing toward some zero some game of "you can't criticize a punchline rapper unless you hate all punchline rappers"
― sandbox banned socks (Mr. Stevenson #2), Wednesday, 7 December 2011 03:44 (twelve years ago) link
nah more just "I think you're all sorta overstating the awfulness of this/that innocuous pun because you hate the people who would enjoy this music more than because you really think this is a new low in the history of rap puns..."
― iatee, Wednesday, 7 December 2011 03:54 (twelve years ago) link
We hate on corny puns from street rappers all day too

yo that line is like "call me mr. flintstone, I can make your bed rock" but even lamer since it's stylized like "I'm not from Bedrock, but I can make your bed rock"
