love the king beece, def like get rich era 50 resurrected!

between that fatzmack song, the young thug tape, and this chief keef tape, yall really like stoned sloooooow shit huh

the chief keef tape is way underwhelming, wtf do you think is special about this

*sighs*

boring voice, no memorable lyrics, boring production, no memorable hooks...it was like a really really basic version of early gucci

i recommend a reassessment

i doubt i can be bothered to listen to it again

sadly that eloquent defence doesn't convince me

he's not an amazing rapper but i think he has a cool delivery. i like the way he hangs on some syllables and spits out others staccato style. a snich uggggggggggggggggggin that's that shit i don't like! >> this song and '3hunna' are constantly playing in my head at the moment. real earworms.

very obsessed with that jackie chain song from ur q1 roundup deej. early summer jam material

i have 2 thank jordan for getting me to check that one again .... i was set on 'molly' for a long time

i think its much more difficult to discuss something w/ a person who claims a song w/ a blatant & obviously catchy hook doesnt have hooks

i mean, keef is growing as a rapper, and from "bang" to "3hunna" has show hes thinking like a rapper, and occasionally writes really good & memorable lyrics ~ they'll tighten up as he gets older. but he's also writing amazing & catchy songs

i was at this. so many stories

skip to 4:30

i don't see the connection b/w keef and gucci

keef isn't much as a lyricist right now but his hook are unusual and memorable -- the same can be said for his flow

i think his flow & all that is pretty basic, although his voice is memorable, but he does have lyrics, they're just spread out b/c of the age thing. 'bullets hot like the sun' 'good loud pack smell like cat piss / hangin out the roof young and reckless' 'she say she love me whatever that is' 'i like my bitch conceited' 'she said sosa i'm a big fan / bitch i'm leanin like a kickstand' these are memorable lines & theres a reason ppl are quoting them all over twitter locally. its those kinds of lyrics ... the whole rakim thing abt taking a phrase that's rarely heard, flip it now its a daily word ... louie is obv a much more developed rapper (hes also 8 years older than keef) so his verses are tightly packed w/ memorable lines like that, where keef's are more spread out. but the seeds of it developing into more are all there: he sounds like himself, hes not packing ungainly phrases together, not biting other people, has an original style.

plus, and this can't be underrated, he's created incredibly catchy songs. hes not just rapping, he's writing songs

'war time spark broad day all night'

the future album is really good

listening to this now

lol intro

"u might catch me on pluto, 4 billion miles away"

more or less

mike will kills his productions on this

"turn on the lights" is killing me right now -- those keys!!

yeah, how many Mike Will beats are on this?

i mean, keef is growing as a rapper, and from "bang" to "3hunna" has show hes thinking like a rapper,

i don't even know what this means

i don't hear how keef's hooks are any catchier or better than any other random mixtape rapper - when i think of a notably great hook i'm thinking ice cream paint job/good fucking night/beamer benz & bentley/silly bitch level catchy. i just don't hear any energy or singularity in keef at all. if i had to write about him i'd be racking my brains trying to come up with a single interesting thing about his music.

as for future i cannot take any more stoned autotune slow shit so does that dominate the album or not?

god, listening to "i don't like" again just for you and it's so boring and ponderous and there's absolutely nothing interesting about his timbre or delivery

the new meek mill is >>>>>>> though

and big krit's "i got this" continues to dominate my life

i'm in pluto
i'm in mars
AT THE SAME DAMN TIME

anyone got production credits for 'pluto'?

feeling the album. good balance of bangers and zoned out garbled space ballads.

Thx for that.

I dont know what to tell you lex. I just saw him perform it and people were losing their minds yelling the lyrics. Its a funny concept based around understatement. His vocals have a rawness, an uncensored feel. I explained what I meant by thinking like a rapper above

lex is just "getting old"

i'm sorry you don't consider angel haze and lady leshurr to be sufficiently youthful

"reckless/cat piss" is a p. cool off-rhyme but "bullets hot like the sun" seems commendable to you d? seriously? you who have probably got one of the biggest rap collections of anybody I know? "she said sosa I'm a big fan/bitch I'm leanin like a kickstand" merits c & p from you? idgi at all, those are just bad. not because they have "bitch" just 'cause it's like bad writing imo

they're pretty memorable catchphrases... the sorta thing you find yourself mindlessly mumbling - maybe diff than "good writing" in the traditional sense but still effective in its own way
