no, i am not. i made a pretty simple joke abt how lil b was going to have to do some work to get the attention of the internet rap nerd posse that has jumped to the next new thing before he even got another record out. acting as if these two acts were totally unrelated & why would they be in competition etc. etc. is disingenuous.

you asked why. i said they have the same audiences and are both gimmicky. then we went down this rabbithole where you guys were denying that shock humor might just qualify as 'a gimmick' -- especially ridic considering its been a gimmick that has been used for years

were geto boys rapping from experience about necrophilia?

no but that wasnt the content of every song iirc?

i mean of course it was a gimmick to them too

i would much rather that people lie a lot. cuz most people's lives are rilly boring.

i agreed with you that they are gimmicky! wtf are you talking about

skot otm

and i agreed that they and lil b have the same audience, too

brotha lynch hung is a dude for whom its not a gimmick simply because hes done so many variations on it -- obv authenticity isnt the only thing involved here -- i mean dude made a career out of different kinds of shock humor. but theres a depth to his stories & the ***purposefulness*** to them that keeps it from being a gimmick

im not saying these dudes are stuck as gimmicks or something. or that thats all their is to their music. i just admitted ive barely listened to much of it. but thats undeniably a part of the appeal, when everyone's going around quoting the MOST SHOCKING LYRICS to each other w/out talking about anything else

then rev& i are in agreement -- j0rdan said they werent gimmicky

i don't think that they're gimmicky

"cially ridic considering its been a gimmick that has been used for years"

right. its just one of many sub-genres of rap. lots of people have done it. nobody has said that they have reinvented the wheel. but they are GOOD at it. that's the difference right there. not everybody is.

of course it's part of the appeal, not sure who said it wasn't

"i just admitted ive barely listened to much of it."

listen to more and come back with pie and opinion. you don't want to get all kill bill/dr. morbs up in here.

wait that should be all kill bill/momus! morbz was basterds.

scott i never talked shit about the music at all -- i just mentioned how ppl were talking about it -- theres nothing wrong w/ being gimmicky per se!! i cant believe this is a point of contention

yall are mad defensive

classic deej itt

classic sensitive autogoons itt

sensitive goons you all need spoons

deej, this whole thing of coming into threads with contrary opinions (which is absolutely fine) and then being all "y'all are so defensive!" when ppl back up their own opinions, cut it out

i didnt have a 'contrary opinion' -- i just wasnt cheerleading

well plus its that thing on here and elsewhere where people are like: wait, why does everyone like this stuff all of a sudden? CUZ WE LIKE IT! yeah but REALLY whats going on here? NO WE JUST REALLY LIKE IT. hmmm, what's the deal its just like this other thing and this and this. and on and on. its true that things happen fast on the web and i understand blog burnout but there isn't always a reason to be suspicious. its just fun and we like it. even if the pitchfork guy likes it!

it's an aspect of what they're doing but not the reason for the attention.

yeah imo t's a real stretch to call these guys shock-rap. yes there's deliberately omg stuff in there, but the production and energy and cadences and rhymes have a lot more going on than just "dude i can't believe he said that."

(that was meant to say either it's a real stretach or 'tis a real stretch, whichever one sounds better)

yeesh bwasher & i were being self deprecating about being suspicious!! im going to check this stuff out
doesnt mean its not funny to lol @ blog hype cycle

http://www.watblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/HypeCycle.png

yes 'these guys are good' is usually what inspires ppl to care about something. but thats ... always true.

but their music is 'about' being shocking. i dont see how this is rlly arguable

o wait the pitchfork guy likes this? I'm out

"yes 'these guys are good' is usually what inspires ppl to care about something. but thats ... always true"

but on ilm people come up with a zillion different theories about why something gets attention or why people are falling for something and its almost like they can't believe that its because people just like it. like its mass hypnosis. instead of just, you know, word of mouth about something cool!

yeah but they have the exact same audience

hiphop fans in liking hiphop shockah.

from tyler's twitter: "I Have Departed Ways With Odd Future. It Was Fun While It Lasted, But I Am Now A Lone (ex) Wolf."

hoping this doesn't last, he's the core of OF

have to wonder if he's fucking around... i mean, there really is no odd future w/o him, considering earl is gone

also it would be like he broke up with all of his best friends? weird

yeah that's what i'm going to assume until some more info comes out

classic thread

I don't think lil b & of have the same audience. People @ philaflava, who are total backpackers listening to ehlzi & jay elec, are goin nuts about earl & tyler.

I guess I could toot my own horn here. I spoke to Tyler around a month ago. Here it is:

pretty sure this is super saiyan

as in

http://images.paraorkut.com/img/pics/images/d/dragonball_z_anime-6737.jpg

oh

yeah i'm not real up on dragonball z characters \(o_O)/

not a character but... lol nevermind

show was a huge classic for young me. dude is a few years younger than me but feelin synergy w earl on this. nice to see dbz still transcending generations of nerdy kids & infiltrating rap music

imo the big diff between these dudes & 'classic' horrorcore: 4chan

lol is this gonna turn into "the view analyzes odd future" or what?

^^^the name for next year's swag thread

(not really)

but really, i don't see what this has to do with 4chan at all

teenagers using the word "faggot" is not the work of 4chan, i assure you

uh oh are we about to reenact yesterday

can i make it clear from the jump that bcuz i think they are 'influenced' by internet shock culture this does not mean that the music is good bad or indifferent

i just really don't see what this has to do with 4chan
