Hearing Laetitia Sadier on a Tyler album is v strange.'Jamba' is great. Also 'Rusty' which just adds to my anticipation for the next Earl album.

on second or third listen I love "Whoa."

yeah none of the Tyler album is as good as "Whoa," the Earl one is gonna be the one to watch for sure
the guests on this are the def highlights along with a couple stray Tyler joints. haven't kept up at all since Goblin besides that sort of crappy MellowHype record, did Domo Genesis improve a ton in the interim? he sounds great on the track on here

Can w Tim Hardin in rehearsal, it says (live rehearsal? Somebody responds favorably at the end). An efficiently semi-funky groove--nice drums, for sure---Hardin shows up about 5 minutes into this 11 minute-plus workout, with surprisingly agile lumberjack vocals. I thought he might just be broody, but he's into it, in a bluesy way. Sound is a bit distanced, whether source or YouTube, but clear enough.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G_nQQROudw Must check out some more Hardin, esp. this later era.

How has Tyler's massive Neptunes obsession resulted in him making anti-sociable, non-danceable beats? So weird.
― longneck, Saturday, 30 March 2013 12:23 (eleven years ago) link
they'd pretty much stopped making club bangers by the time he was jocking them in middle school or w/e

Off topic but I don't think I ever heard which came first there
after a quick bit of googling it appears to be Can who got there first

you can probably isolate by release but there seems to be some question if one was aware of the other

I saw these slouching cretins on Letterman the other night. Very disrespectful young men, too stuck-up to let Paul and the boys spruce up their shitty little rap song with a rockin' keyboard solo. I wish them ill.

hardly a novel observation, but this makes me think that earl is an amazing writer, but def not the most charasmatic rapper around. staples brings a lot more personality to his (much less distinctive) verse.
great video though.
― IIIrd Datekeeper (contenderizer), Wednesday, 17 July 2013 21:31 (ten years ago) link
earl definitely seems less charismatic since growing up, there's a weird dead-eyed quality to his raps that wasn't there before
― thot police (fadanuf4erybody), Thursday, 18 July 2013 01:55 (ten years ago) link
it's pretty doom-ish i think crossed with an overt depressive vibe

US Rapper Tyler The Creator unleashes a torrent of hate on Sydney activist
I’m a 23-year-old psychology student from Sydney and in June this year, I was subjected to a horrific torrent of abusive tweets from fans of touring American rapper Tyler Okonma. I challenged Okonma’s lyrics which encourage rape and violence against women by vocally supporting a petition on change.org that suggested he shouldn’t be playing all-age shows.
At Tyler’s concert in Sydney the next day, he told his fans he hoped my children got STDs, and “dedicated” songs to me that included lyrics like “punch a bitch in her mouth just for talkin' shit”.
The abuse started almost instantly. First a drip, then a rush, then a flood. I felt physically sick. He had 1.7 million fans, and it felt like every single one of them had some violence stored up for me - a promise to assault me, the threat that they would rape me, an expression of hatred for my life and my freedom.
It was terrifying at first, and then I started to feel totally disconnected from myself. When one of them said he was going to mutilate my body, I couldn’t comprehend that he could be talking about me. The messages were coming at such a rate I couldn’t keep up.
I received threats from Okonma’s fans constantly for two weeks and I still get the odd tweet of abuse today. In a tone eerily similar to Okonma’s lyrics they sent messages like: “shut the f--- up cuz if I see you on the streets I’m gonna snatch u in a alley and force this d--- in you,” “how’s that for promoting rape? I’m f---ing DOING it! So watch ur back, but ur families will be first” and “you know you secretly want @f---tyler to forcibly penetrate your anal cavity”.
