i understand what you see in all these bay guys -- they come off as very 'real' & 'normal' and that certainly improves their aesthetic as street kingpin types in the way that rick ross is make believe -- but you have to understand how they can also fall on the other side of that line which = "boring"
― The ss (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 February 2010 03:39 (sixteen years ago)
i dont think j stalin is boring at all. personality, flow, the professionalism of his rap style i just like a lot more
lyrically yelawolf is more of a lyrically lyrical cat, stalin gets straight to the point, but i dont at all in any way think stalin is boring at all ... hes a standout from his scene, not typical of it

i mean ive heard you defend way more generic rappers than stalin before!
― average gangsta rap from average gangstas (deej), Friday, 5 February 2010 03:46 (sixteen years ago)
i think there is more vitality to stalin's music whereas the jacka is like someone's uncle rapping
― The ss (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 February 2010 03:47 (sixteen years ago)
haha -- i love jacka in the way i love cormega in terms of lyrical style (who also kinda sounds like someone's uncle rapping any more??)
― average gangsta rap from average gangstas (deej), Friday, 5 February 2010 03:48 (sixteen years ago)
i'm an ageist when it comes to music tho
well i certainly have yeah, and i don't dislike stalin but his particular rapping aesthetic is less catnip for me
i dig the bay area stuff that's more chill
― The ss (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 February 2010 03:48 (sixteen years ago)
yeah i didn't like those cormega snippets tbh
― The ss (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 February 2010 03:49 (sixteen years ago)
dude jacka is chill as it gets. he's fuckin sublime
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Friday, 5 February 2010 04:48 (sixteen years ago)
yeah that's my problem w/ these guys
― The ss (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 February 2010 04:49 (sixteen years ago)
when jacka does his melodic sing-song with the drawn out syllables, all overdubbed into infinity. it's incredible
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Friday, 5 February 2010 04:51 (sixteen years ago)
i love jackas rap styleposted this upthread but deserves reposthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NMMlAe2fEI

i don't really think there's any cohesive style, it just so happens that the few that get posted i here are pretty laid back
yes "sicilian breeze"

berner is so laid back he sounds drugged
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Friday, 5 February 2010 04:58 (sixteen years ago)
berner sounds like an idiot. i kind of like him in a condescending doesnt-know-how-to-rap way though. his emphasis is weird. Its Like He Starts Every Word Like The Beginning Of A Sentence.
― average gangsta rap from average gangstas (deej), Friday, 5 February 2010 05:00 (sixteen years ago)
tbh i dont much love yelawolf. his album is cool & solid in a well-constructed way, i just dont think hes saying much as a rapper

i disagree that he's not saying anything interesting (what exactly is j stalin saying as a rapper), but even if he wasn't he technically creative & the production on that tape is dope as hell, just totally inventive & different than the other bama rap. even the vocal sampling on "lick the cat" (best nasty rap song i've heard this year) and "fuck you" sound fresh to me, and then he just rips normal boom-bap stuff like that joint w raekwon.
also he's an affecting singer

i had to run out in my pajamas and sing the hook on the lawn after deej's post

Again my quest to check out every youtube posted here has me way behind. That Shady Nate with the cut up Delfonics sample is doooooooope.

anyway I'm pretty sure Joe Budden keeps Headline News on 24/7 in hopes of being the first guy to have a punchline about Conan losing the Tonight Show or whatever

i could fkn kill luda or whoever for letting rick ross sit in the middle of that remix btw. also what's up with shawnna suddenly having nothing to do with battle of the sexes? wasn't it all announced after she signed to nappy boy anyway or am i misremembering

that jacka track deej posted is great.
deej it's kinda weird though cuz didn't you sorta hate on freddie gibbs for the same reasons you are defending j. stalin and jacka?
just curious, not trying to fight....as you know i believe boring, extremely competent rappers are the only Way Forward we have today.

and i don't find them "boring" but i know what people mean when they say that
and, for the record i think yelawolf is a more exciting rapper in some ways than stalin, but i think the best of stalin's stuff has a great atmosphere and the sorta menacing tangerine dream thing is way more distinctive production than anything on yelawolf

i think how most rappers have "weed carries", budden has guys who do shifts watching cnn/refreshing cnn.com so he can make sure to date his songs as horribly as possible
