rolling stupid fruity crazy swag thread

'sa good blog

'sa ok blog

didn't they do drops on the last g-side album? i deleted those immediately.

no drops on my version, just an interlude where matthew africa mentions them. never had a problem w those interludes at all, didn't really understand those who did

ok the scandinavian one is embarassing

they were pretty corny is all

let's talk about this untamed song

these sound like the imaginary group Kountry Kingz that i dreamed abt this weekend btw recently on ILX Dreams...

yeh i am lovin it

haha -- sounds like a dope road trip imo

it's really all abt flowing over block beataz production & introducing touches of melody with all these guys tho, isn't that fair to say? only like ST 2 lettaz can really spit and een then only lately

yeah i pretty much only truly fuck w/ hunstville stuff prod by block beataz -- the songs on the d*plo mixtape are prob still the best stuff that has come out of there -- the bama stuff benefits from being guided by where the production takes them, also generally from lots of diff ppl rapping -- starshipz & rocketz is a totally dope album tho cuz it hits the right mood & does it in a sonically interesting fashion

g-side can write some real good pop stuff tho -- "my aura" esp, "rubber bandz" too & some other stuff

this is apropos of nothing but I always find it really funny when rappers brag about getting shots of liquor with no chaser

pretty sure anybody who drinks regularly can handle a shot of remy with no chaser, dawg

love that Atlantic prez is so much more aggressive than bob

Link to the actual B.O.B./Hayley Williams mess. I'm predicting an Owl City remix before the end of the year.

ask them to try less hard.

i've thought about it, and i'm going to tell them to try just the right amount

feelin this -- way better than "magnificent" which was pretty insipid

classic screencap of course

i'm ready to re-embrace the bawse

i remain, as ever, irrationally angry about him having a career. like, i'm trying to think of some kind of outrageous gesture of protest to make if he gets a fourth #1 album.

he's genuinely become a good if not competent rapper

i thought all the songs on his last album were too long & had too many r&b singers on the hook

but the mafia musics are both incredible for instance

wtf what is lil b's deal?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-IYSl4I-4I

that's a very loaded question

no pun intended

his deal is like when wayne started getting super druggy & stream of conscious & no brain filter, but lil b... barely tries to rap? it's almost more spoken word than anything, with space-age synth beats usually. like, to dig lil b you almost have to have a thing for psychosis (or at least psychology) and rap, the way that people justified the importance or quality of the game's post- g unit albums, or how interest in wayne's persona amplified when it became clear that he was some sort of constantly stoned savant. i dig a lot of lil b right now -- obviously not everything is great but he's incredibly singular and i find him totally fascinating, both because his music really screws with the notion of "rap", both sonically and lyrically and thematically (i.e. constantly comparing himself favorably to women and gays ["i'm a pretty bitch" etc], his god obsession etc)

my thing with lil b is that to really dig his songs, i think the production needs to be interesting -- shit like "i'm god" and "insane" work as counterpoints to his rapping style. when he's on normal sounding beats he can drag.

What Lil B would you recommend? These recent yt have been crazy.

reminds me kinda of Scarface's The Diary, although obv. 15 years removed and totes different.

actually, it's just one more example that indie rock values/aesthetics are dominating hip hop right now IMO

not gonna inundate w/ youtubes but

(the first video isn't the whole song -- there seems to be a 2 min video and a 7 min video, but the song is 5 mins long)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LwCzQjZAvg

(this is prob my fav b song)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOkbQ6Se-kk&feature=related

sittin in my scraper
lookin like a bitch
ho i don't give a fuck
i'm pretty and i'm rich

also "hoes suck my dick cuz i look like my father" -- dude is actually kind of fucked up

er, HER father

also lil b made a lot more sense to me & became a lot more compelling when i stopped listening to new mp3s and only watched his videos -- visual element is v important imo

That Rawse is actually pretty awesome.

b has an ambient album in the tank too apparently -- it's called "rain in england" -- he posted a song from it today on his youtube channel & it's pretty good

the videos are an interesting part of what he does definitely, on that note, i think you'd be doing a disservice to him if you didn't check out the longer vid w/ the full song and the 'secrete' ending of him rapping over the x-men cartoon theme

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZG6zsHUCum4

sample is imogen heap, "just for now". only place left is enya imo

haha -- in the joint he posted today -- "dangerous minds" -- he calls himself the "yanni of the rap game"

the imogen heap sample is amazing -- it's such a ghostly song

B is technically the first rapper in the stupid fruity swag thread

bangkadang

also i think "somebody tell the ocean i'm the best now/ somebody tell the trees i'm here now" is a line & concept i love so much -- transcending the elements is next-level swagger rap

is that what elliott smith sounds like?? that shit is horrrrible

Holy shit this Lil B song is FLAMES. That sample is nuts.

Also, that Sharks hat he's wearing in the video is ace.
