isn't it called Kiss The Ring?

― some dude, Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:07 (9 months ago) Permalink

i don't know if any of these songs i haven't heard can possibly be less appealing to me than "I Wish You Would," but the troika of wimpy tasteful earnest new 'stars' on "They Ready" is pretty damn unappealing

― some dude, Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:09 (9 months ago) Permalink

whoops yes it is -- i can't read

― tauheed & cambria (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:15 (9 months ago) Permalink

yeah, it has to be "they ready"

― tauheed & cambria (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:15 (9 months ago) Permalink

altho the idea of wale, tyga, mack maine & kirko bangz over a runners beat is truly one of the most repulsive ideas of all time

man they brought DJ Toomp back from the dead and just for an ACE HOOD OUTRO

6. “I’m So Blessed” Ft. Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa, Ace Hood & T-Pain, Produced by K.E./Co-Produced by DJ Khaled

i like K.E. but these three guys rapping about how "blessed" they are.... fucking hell

hahah, having traumatic flashbacks of Schoolboy Q doing an endless, joyless version of "Blessed" at Pitchfork

― Evan R, Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:20 (9 months ago) Permalink

this one will probably be even longer

wait what

― tauheed & cambria (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:21 (9 months ago) Permalink

He did a version of "Blessed" (sans Kendrick Lamar) that just went on forever. Songs about being blessed are always a slog; songs with "Blessed" in the title are even worse

― Evan R, Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:24 (9 months ago) Permalink

oh i didn't realize that he had a song called "blessed" -- i thought you were saying that, like, the song on this khaled album was a re-make of a schoolboy q song

― tauheed & cambria (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 8 August 2012 18:25 (9 months ago) Permalink

“I Don’t See Em” Ft. Birdman, Ace Hood & 2 Chainz probably gets my vote. That's a lot of clumsy on one track.

2. J. Cole, Big K.R.I.T. & Kendrick Lamar, "They Ready" (produced by J. Cole)
These three guys are touted as some of the most exciting young talents in popular rap, and in each case that proclamation has at least some degree of truth. But putting them together is just an incredibly obvious and pandering move, a late, out-of-touch MTV segment or Rolling Stone sidebar brought to life.

i think people are seriously underestimating the possibility that "I'm Blessed" will consist of everyone on the track claiming to have huge cocks

i was just thinking that Miguel singing about clouds was kind of a natural progression for soft batch Rozay songs

true.. but if currensy is on it it kinda has to be about weed right?

yeah i guess.

in Drama's defense "We In This Bitch" and "My Moment" are already better than anything on Kiss The Ring

yeah, "my moment" is very underrated imo

Something about the song title, the fact that it's last, and that it's only fred the godson is really cracking me up
