luv that he tweeted @ u

o commented, not tweeted i guess

i mentioned him on twitter once the other day and he started following me like 10 minutes later. he's the rapper of choice for writers who enjoy a two-way lane of feedback w/ the artist.

sup Brandon!!!

incredible. massive lol @ the ILX link too

i gotta give dude credit for working the whole writer promotion angle 1000x better than anyone else.

beat is sick

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTiWyz-G38A

It feels like he's putting out new songs like every day hahahhaa.

it's been that way for like two years now

I've only started paying attention to B a few months ago, and I'm still getting used to the torrential flood his output is.

if i was gonna make a cd with songs that are actually 100% listenable i'd start with:

1) i'm god
2) age of information
3) the world's ending (after like 2 minutes in)
4) .....(add on please)

Insane
Really Waterfront

insane
death of rap
pretty bitch
i am the hood
finna hit a lick

problem is it's hard to find mp3s for some of those

its funny you psosted that cuz I'm watching this right now and I'm thinking, this video kinda rules!!! homemade psychedlic sweeps galore!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8NW2NZcu1c

and that is why it is tangentially related to lil b, it's kinda like a based youtube free- association

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tch1pTjKVno
This is my fave off 6 kiss

thank you based god

http://www.thefader.com/2010/01/08/video-lil-b-myspace/

feeling this

this is awesome

def one of his best songs

makes me wonder whether the stream of consciousness stuff is actually the best idea for him. i mean the guy can really rap

he def could even the distribution out a bit

does he actually have a record deal or anything?

supposedly signed to soulja boy's imprint SODMG

ffs i've spent the last few hours watching lil b videos on youtube now i feel quite disturbed and a bit based

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0dJej4Kc7E

wtf

hahahaha

who is the clandestine other half of the based god who actually holds the flip cam while B "directs" all the videos???? pretty amazing that whoever it is is never seen or heard considering that they must film all fucking day every day

oh and he has a nationally trending topic right now. this whole thing is fucking surreal.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PbNCBtdwEM&feature=player_embedded

feelin this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83p69JhDnwU

hoop life is good

yeah, his only consistent mixtape

yeah I wouldn't know but it's cool. Also back when he had his moment in the relative sun a few years back I thought his Internet-meme fanbase was eyeroll-inducing but there are parts of this mixtape that got me dying, his one in-between verse rant toward the end of "NBA Stole My Swag" in particular

+ the hook on "See Me in the Game"

when is ultimate bitch?

poor guy

http://m.pitchfork.com/news/58100-lil-b-saved-from-house-fire-by-teenager/

262 albums so far in 2015 is p good but im leery of actually listening, tbh http://pigeonsandplanes.com/2015/09/viper-rapper-2015/

haven't listened but that article is too funny

"From my brief research, Viper is on pace to be the first musician to finish a year averaging over 1.00 APD."

I'm kinda bummed he's been associating with Martin Shkreli.

http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/lil-b-black-ken/

I’ve started to think of Black Ken as a metaphysical He’s the DJ, I’m the Rapper situation. Over its 27 tracks, Lil B raps over entirely self-produced beats with occasional narration from the omniscient DJ BasedGod. And its first eight tracks represent his most purposeful block of music since his 2009 opus 6 Kiss—raw, squelching loops of murderous funk and 808s that land like uppercuts, stuff that sounds like you could’ve bought it on cassette out of a trunk in ’88. The first we hear of B’s voice on “Still Run It”—measured, resolute, completely unlike his liquid freestyles—he is channeling a Tupac flow, a reminder of the icon’s claim to Oakland as the city that put him on game in his Digital Underground days. “Hip-hop is back!” B crows, and if you didn’t believe him the first time, three tracks later is “Hip Hop,” unquestionably the dopest song this side of the Reagan (or Dregan) administration with a “Hip! Hop! Hip! Hop!” chorus. “Remember I was younger, I always loved music/So now it’s an honor to write and produce it,” he raps; it all could’ve easily read as kitsch if the beat didn’t knock so hard, or if he didn’t so plainly believe it.

Black Ken channels the sound of Lil B’s hometown in the years just before his birth—an era in which Bay Area rap stood uncompromisingly apart from the industry out of both necessity and pride. The result is an outsider artist’s take on old Too $hort or Kool Rock Jay tapes: plain-spoken neighborhood tours that impart real-life lessons in self-reliance over booming, brittle 808s and P-Funk tracks stripped for parts. “Bad MF,” on which B tells a snitch to kick rocks (“Catch the bus, motherfucker!”), has the kind of roughneck piano beat that evokes a virtuoso who plays only with his elbows, with funk licks that make me want to stomp down an alley kicking over trash cans. And when on “Free Life” he wonders how to exist happily in an exhausting world, his reminder that “the best things in life are free” is not a cliché, but a distillation of based philosophy in the style of Too $hort’s “It’s Your Life,” a 1990 lesson in imposing the positive. The album’s mid-way hyphy section is a less successful revival, but it’s worth it for B snarling, “Gentrify me? I beg your pardon!” in his best Keak Da Sneak voice on “Getting Hot.”

can i hear a, amen! for capitalism ! (lil b runs away screaming and laughing not really understanding what he said due to ignorance) - Lil B

— Lil B THE BASEDGOD (@LILBTHEBASEDGOD) September 14, 2017

sounds about right

black ken is wonderful imo

it's really good and his production skillz extremely revelatory but imo he should do more of the '09-12 lil b voice on future projects (basically I'm the guy on 'pretty boy skit' and the stretch following that up to the Spanish section) instead of trying to sound like tupac or whatever

aside from being way too fucking long & full of unnecessary gimmick tracks, this was kind of my ideal lil b release...shit was like 'memorable banalities: the album' full of hip hop history.

I never really heard Pac in his rapping tho I saw that in a review, more pre-Pac cadence emphasis stuff ... eazy e / ice t... I need to listen again...king tee probably.

man im the numerator u just a common denominator

stuck his new one (platinum flame) on

'made man' is everything

ok got to 'billionaire'

rap aoty

jesus christ

lol

idk man i love his daft production and he's on p hilarious form

I like how he’s giving very small amounts of money to his fans.

*bump* to spread the word that this dirtbag has been blacklisted by adult content creators for his consistent m.o. of commissioning custom clips/pics, then breaking agreements by sharing the content publicly on social, often with the added insult of tagging in the models so his fans can harass them

woke up this morning to something that actually really hurt my feelings. let me start this out by saying it’s completely disheartening to me and hundreds of other sexworkers to see people still actively working with lil b and ignoring six months of conversations surrounding
