most pathetic excuse for wordplay in Young Money's "Bedrock"

Hedgehog - Sonic, The is a gift to all mankind

hedgehog, sonic the, celebrates hanukkah

wait adam sandler is dead?

...BOB WEIR!

the Hedgehog - Sonic

'hedgehog, sonic the' is pretty good imo

ha yeah i like that line actually

i dont much like most of the songs ive heard from this album

Icing on my fingertips, I be getting cake in

seriously who cares what these guys have to say abt anything

im listening to this david banner produced track ryan d said was a 'highlight' in his pfork review & im not feeling it either. hes right that this is doing a good job of making nikki minaj seem like more of a star

whats an actual good beat from this album

NICKI IS BETTER THAN THIS I PROMISE

:(

dude Nicki is coming across like an all star at the moment, no Smashmouth

not anymore man

xp

really? cuz i liked some earlier stuff i remember people talking about when she seemed more like a throwback to scrappy, dirty mouth lil kim stuff but anything i've heard from here recently seems like she's become a part of wayne's bullshit gobbledegook rhyming cult

(xpost to lex)

"hedgehog, sonic the" just sold a copy of this album

i can never find the "oh lord pac" thing to c&p when i need it

all the beats on this ive heard are like competent but not really anything i can imagine bumping over & over
like, even if you can put up w/ this rap style ..

i dont get this stuff, or drake, or why ppl think this stuff is so fresh. its so safe & watery & boring, running into first and yr butt's about to burst .... DIARRHEA

i've posted a ton of really genuinely great nicki verses in I'm Nicki Minaj, Nicki Lewinsky, Nicki the Ninja, Nicki the Boss, Nicki the Harajuku Barbie

i think she's realising that pulling wacky faces and doing dumb gobbledegook (as opposed to really great surrealist stuff) is selling her far more than her tougher, more menacing look - still got hope for her own album though

from here down I'm Nicki Minaj, Nicki Lewinsky, Nicki the Ninja, Nicki the Boss, Nicki the Harajuku Barbie

ohhhh lord 2pac big please talk to this sucker cause they killing hip hop they taking the pain and struggle of life of hip hop the only thing we coulda express our minds and pain. and these suckers took it and made it look like garbage thats why we get judge so much cause these shit dont be making sence

If all evidence you have of Nicki's greatness is this song, and the only thing you've ever heard of Gucci Mane's is that terrible one with Mario (they don't even play Wasted around here), I could definitely see being skeptical about Atlanta's recent exports.

When I was trying to convince Simon R that Rap has still got a lot of life in it this is not one of the songs I sent him. You can all blame me for that whole mess then if you like.

i mean the same shit, ashley and mary kate
sometimes i wish i was blind, MR RAY

i'm trying to think of old school examples of this and am coming up blank

I keep her running back and forth...SOCCER TEAM!!!

not going to listen to the song just in case the actual delivery of this line is less hilarious than how i'm imagining it

i mean, bad puns go back in hip-hop further than fat laces, but this weird disease of delivering the horribly formed "joke" without the courtesy of a "like I'm" or a "like a" is hella new.

There's gotta be an antecedent tho!

yeah, actually shipley made that one up since in the actual song it's delivered in classic hip-hop simile form

LIKE A soccer team

eh thats basically lil wayne's innovation i guess, i mean im sure someone did it
but what makes it so ugh is that its become the point of these songs, hammering them at you. they're not about anything else

i mean, i'm pretty sure dipset did it first and i would gladly point an example out to you if i were the type of internet pos(t)er who pretends dipset has memorable lines

to be fair this is much better than when a rapper says "GET IT" on a totally obvious pun.

although i think sir reggie noble has a "get it" that remains inscrutable to me to this day

thats basically what they're doing, though

like every line is delivered with a nudge to the ribs

we're getting really close to rap being Scary Movie 3 where people are just gonna start rapping the names of things in pop culture with no context or punchlines

i really hope nicki's album is more like this when it drops and less like "hedgehog, sonic the" or "...ASBESTOS!!!"

It's the loveliest, longest, lean---I call it the leanest
It's another five letter word rhymin' with cleanest, the meanest....PENIS!

"hedgehog, sonic the" is kind of dope

haha im saying

that's better but i really get annoyed at that exagerrated way she says shit like "waaaaaaayne" like sounds like a cross between a an american trying to sound like cockney chimney sweep and a valley girl or some shit

On this train
Will it always rain?
Try to analyze
This led venture
Songless sky, digital bug-eye
Octogonal seams so much clearer
Indiscrete, status incomplete
To provide me with
Something better

shit that was supposed to be on the voivod lyrics thread in case you thought i was posting lyrics from cannibal ox in the young money thread

lol

thx for clarifying that...OCTOGONAL SEAMS!!!

there's definitely a version where he says "like a" but i swear the one i usually hear in the video/on the radio there's just a pause between "forth" and "soccer"

there's two versions, ship's right.

of course, it's a bitch finding an embeddable version of the official video on youtube, but it's there

there's two versions, ship's right.
