rolling rap thread

hey smartass how is accusing me of differentiating rappers based on headgear not accusing me of superficial stupidity?

and yes i specifically addressed vocal tone in what i just said, about how they use their voices?

(youtube clip)

i just feel like you're compartmentalizing rappers into such distinct categories that you can't even begin to comprehend someone hearing a very elemental sonic similarity based on something more external and superficial -- it's like "no no they have NOTHING in common, this guy wears doo rags and this guy wears kufis!!!!"

like, what post of mine is this even referring to? 'such distinct categories'??

before it was "distortions," now it's "accusations," you're really just incapable of shooting the shit about music without sounding like a politician on the defensive dude

if you stop trying to argue with strawmen it would be a lot easier to not be defensive about it

it was a humorous exaggeration, not an actual serious allegation that you judge rappers by their mystical hats as you do with jazz musicians

you're exaggerating a position i dont even hold

anyway all i meant by the k'naan thing was that kendrick lamar seems like the kind of rapper i might enjoy if his voice had the slightest bit of gravitas, i'm sorry if that's just a bizarre thing to say but i'm just giving a first impression and not digging my heels in or anything

thats fine, i don't even love the kendrick record like that, it just seemed like an overly harsh judgement considering

yeah, didn't know he was a fan of "Niggas in Paris" tho

is this going to do well in the ilm poll?

nothing is good about that song

every time deej says "cray" i shudder

*ducks in*

BAH SO HAHD

*ducks out*

jay's verse on that is awesome -- really shoulda been a solo record

i missed duflocka rant, is it actually that good?

if "single ladies" is the aural equivalent of trya.gif, "niggas in paris" is the aural equivalent of

yeah but it's mostly kinda just weird soft-headed shit, he doesn't have a political agenda IMO

not arguing about dope party music with crotchety mr. shipley and i don't even listen to music kev kells

MOVING ON -- i don't really get the big deal about "house party". it's def a hot song but i don't see it as, like, some classic track. prob not even in my top 5 off 'dreamchasers'. or maybe my #5.

and for the better imo

has lil b repped for ron paul yet

or would even endorsing one candidate over another not be 'positive' enough for him

"house party" is just one of those 'thank god they put this on the radio' kind of songs for me, i don't know if i would've gravitated toward it if i'd heard it on the mixtape first

man i could really listen to the first paris record right now, let's burn this shithole to the ground

i never understood why ppl always thought politics was like bad or boring, revolutionary shit sounds fucking awesome its cool to fantasize about fucking up the MAN

i think jay & kanye are both wack right now but 'nbombs in paris' is undeniable

also, 'house party' is totally awesome so j0rdan and al both get to be RONG

cmon dude 'house party's opening verse is about fucking in the bathroom during a house party & running the water so ppl dont hear it, that shit is like digital underground shit, plus a banging beat

shit shit

i agree with j0rdan, it's okay but not one of the standouts on dreamchasers (middle of da summer, work, ima boss, dreamchasers, love done live here)

'work' and 'love don't live here' aren't touching 'house party' or 'tony story' which you skipped completely

the beat of niggas in paris is fuckin great.

& du flocka rent is the best BSM stuff this year

the best stuff off that is "tony story", "i'ma boss" (cheating kinda, but still), "don't panic", "middle of da summer" and the one w/ beans (kinda super underrated beans verse imo)

bickin back bein bool

btw 'dreamchasers' has 250k downloads off dat piff alone

why isn't "dont panic" on the dreamchasers nodj version ?

yeah i mean my favorites are all of those, plus house party, so you're just wrong once lol

that really is one of my favorite rap tapes all year though. will prob be in my top 5. one of the best beans verses in ages

Not on Dreamchasers but also good from this year
