lil b (the based god)

or is he just talking over "ambient" "new age" "mood music" which is kind of the impression i'm getting?

i don't think there's ANY rapping

how is it the best rap album album ever if theres no rapping tho

naw, he raps, just over ambient shit w/ no drums

the whole thing is b on his earnest swag tho...no hoez on dicks

I haven't heard either of the paint joints tho, so i can't really compare

kind of enjoying freedom!

is anything off rain in england as good as the sage francis track whiney posted in the goon thread?

who actually listened to the sage francis track that whiney posted in the goon thread?

who is sage francis?

swag

s

props to upper mississip for not being a snobby asshole like Sargent Slaughter over here

Sargent Slaughter

how did we come this far without this happening yet

idk but i've been hearing that shit since i was like 6 years old

i kinda like sage francis, not a ton, but honestly that track was doing sort of a "rapping over non-rhythmic kinda arty ambient stuff" but honestly for what he does i thought it was good and pretty affecting and personal.

it goes back to what i said upthread, i think that lil' b does shit that if it was some backpacker like sage francis did it would be considered lame because they are lame and lil' b is fascinating ergo everything he does must be fascinating because he's so fascinating.

but honestly that track was doing sort of a "rapping over non-rhythmic kinda arty ambient stuff" but honestly for what he does i thought it was good and pretty affecting and personal.

this is exactly why i posted it, but of course someone had to be all "UNNHHH BACKPACKER COOTIES" white guilt pathetic about it; and I could have bet money it would been j0rdan

and yes, like the whole noz-style argument that "rap has an avant-garde" is mega-stupid because there's people like Anti-Pop Consortium and Dalek and Themselves who make dope shit on the regular, but aren't "AUTHENTIC" enough for critics

what the fuck does white guilt have to do w/ thinking that sage francis is a cornball

for the record, if m@tt had asked, is 'rain in england' better than the new whoo da kid song that deej posted in the autogoon thread, i would've said "who listened to the new whoo da kid that deej posted in the autogoon thread?" except it would've been slightly less funny because clowning waka flocka's ipad carriers is not as funny as clowning sage francis

I think Belle And Sebastian are cornballs, but if someone who's opinion I trusted was all "Hey they're doing something different here that I think you might appreciate" I wouldn't scream "FUCK YOU, PUSSY!" and slam the door in their face

haha @ "ipad carriers"

I wouldn't scream "FUCK YOU, PUSSY!" and slam the door in their face

would actually like sarge and whiney to act this out via skype and post it for us.

sorry i didn't realize that my fairly obvious zing of sage francis was going to cause all this commotion

this has been very un-based of us

i bet B would really dig sage francis

haha @ "ipad carriers"

yes, haha @ that

I wouldn't scream "FUCK YOU, PUSSY!" and slam the door in their face

would actually like sarge and whiney to act this out via skype and post it for us.

would pay good money 4 this

I would pay good money for Whiney to find ways to respond to anybody about anything without doing an imitation of them typing in all caps.

The Anticon collective might be the most maligned Hip Hop crew of all time. They were borne of an era where originality wasn't an occasional well-publicized freak out or Auto-Tuned side project, it was constantly expected. No biting allowed. Anticon were direct descendants of style obsessed otherworldly emcees like Pharoahe Monch and Saafir but as crew consisting primarily of white and/or well educated and/or suburban rappers, their otherworld seemed, well, a little too other. The average Hip Hop listener responded somewhere between hate and indifference. So the collective withdrew, they slowed down on rapping and began to make, for lack of a better term, white people music, limping towards indie rock and more experimental electronic aspirations. theFREEhoudini, the latest album (disguised as a mixtape and a teaser for their 'proper' full length CrownsDown) from the labels flagship rapper/producer duo Themselves has been billed as their formal return (or apology?) to the world of Hip Hop. [continues]

who could this author be? perhaps the same dude who said his "new favorite rap crew" were on some antipop consortium shit.

lol stay saving these massively critically maligned artists

urgh. anticon suck not because they are white or educated but because they obv prefer listening to radiohead than wutang.

theres actually a huge overlap in the radiohead/wu-tang fanbases

just sayin

yeah

would've been actually funny if it said "BLAH BLAH BLAH MY NAME IS AL I'M SO DUMB BLAH BLAH BLAH"

the chick i posted about on 77 w/ the wu tang foot tattoo probably has the ok computer poster hanging up in her dorm

ok sorry prefer listening to radiohead than busta rhymes

most of the rain in england stuff i've heard sounds like those relaxation CDs they sell you at a massage place

i like radiohead and wu-tang but i like wu-tang more.

poll?

there's not enough >>>>>>>>>>> to say how much Wu-Tang >> Radiohead

i like ambient lil b, like "Time"

"and yes, like the whole noz-style argument that "rap has an avant-garde" is mega-stupid because there's people like Anti-Pop Consortium and Dalek and Themselves who make dope shit on the regular, but aren't "AUTHENTIC" enough for critics"

All of those guys have made records that I enjoy.

to be fair, I said "noz-style" instead of "noz" to cover my ass on that one

but point taken
