haha i'm not defending B.o.B. at all, he's wack and i mostly like that one song as a shameless Bruno Mars pop song.

argh as if it weren't possible to hate kanye even more it pains me to see "hashtag rap" gain currency and "grocery bag" languish in ilx obscurity, come on whiney

BOB & JCole both fit into this ... joell ortiz isnt popular enough ... eminem's record is considered a classic comeback by these dudes. 90% of rap board threads about pitchfork are ppl freaking out that waka outscored eminem

kanye has more cultural curren$y than me at the moment at least.
also there's no way i could have called them grocery bags without being all, THERES THIS MESSAGE BOARD I POST ON GUYS or loltastic circa 2003 conflation "influential critical hangout ilx" ish
― patti ayonnaise (Whiney G. Weingarten), Wednesday, 15 December 2010 22:25 (thirteen years ago) link
there is literally no excuse to mention ILX in any piece of writing ever, full stop
obv this isnt a 'real genre' just a constellation of 'respected rap' that we mostly think is total crap but it hits this trifecta of being MOR-pop, 'lyrically lyrical' & weirdly popular

Drake fits in here, obv -- or ppl who think Drake is a legit good rapper
Drake is lyrically lollical

i wish we had thread/board just for goons to hang out where YouTubes dont break everything and we could upload records
btw once p&j results come out, i'll bump this thread to bitch about the rap results
i am curious to see how high "b.m.f." makes it on the tracks list tho
― *plop*timist (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 15 December 2010 22:34 (thirteen years ago) link
If I can help it, high. I can't decide whether BMF should be higher than Hard in da Paint or likewise.
― rihanna refurbished my dick (rennavate), Wednesday, 15 December 2010 23:08 (thirteen years ago) link
i think it's apt that "bmf" as an acronym sounds like it's in the vein of smh and kmt
because that is what i do when i hear it or see people praise it
of course "hard in da paint" is fucking better!

"hard in da paint" renders it completely redundant by taking pretty much the same slamming beat and REMOVING RICK ASTHMATIC ROSS

hey you guys, good dubstep is good, bad dubstep is bad. that first yt that deej posted is terrible, but you guys sound mad clueless when you dismiss a whole genre that has become really varied & inclusive.

Yeah, that's whack shit to say something like that, Whiney. Lots of fantastic dubstep around.
― rihanna refurbished my dick (rennavate), Thursday, 16 December 2010 00:10 (thirteen years ago) link
Nah, yall, i respect dubstep and all, i'm just being a snarkball.
I respect the fuck out of Burial and dudes, but personally I haven't heard a single dubstep album I've liked (except maybe King Midas Sound if that counts). Its especially disheartening now that it's falling down this Juno-ization/GvsB-ization with shit like Darkstar and James Blake. Terrible shit that.
― patti ayonnaise (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 16 December 2010 00:16 (thirteen years ago) link
I agree the new Darkstar album is terrible. They made the wrong aesthetic choice, especially after "Aidy's Girl Is a Computer" is amazing.
You don't like Untrue? That's a classic to me.
― rihanna refurbished my dick (rennavate), Thursday, 16 December 2010 00:57 (thirteen years ago) link
the irony is that i don't much like burial or darkstar or james blake either. or "dubstep" much. but there's music within the orbit of dubstep, that i wouldn't necessarily call dubstep myself, that's some of the best music being made atm. ikonika, guido, girl unit, jam city, julio bashmore, optimum, subeena, joker, ramadanman, untold, deep teknologi, altered natives...

Ive seen facebook status updates like "bumping this new j Cole definitely just made my top 10 of the year" and I'm just like furious at everything
Big Sean, too. I know legitimate rap fans, who know a lot about the history of the genre, grew up with it, who anticipate and wait on new Big Sean verses.
That's serious MOR shit, I don't get it. It's like blog payola rap
Also wasn't eminem's 09 album his comeback, the one with the pills relapse, not this new one?
