WAKA

:-O

i think they actually got michelle for this

whiney & i were just talking about this

it's not very funny at all

it's like a white person's idea of black humor -- barack goes ghetto!

the song doesn't even make jokes either

yeah it's def not funny it's just ........

you must not be familiar with the ouvre of affion crocket

it wd be way funnier if it kept him in the white house & had him shit talking about the white house yeah

i do think its funny when he manages to speak in the obama style while shout-rapping like waka -- there are a few moments where that works

yeah the voice was fairly on point

The guy combing his chest hair is pretty funny!

dude literally knows nothing about obama except that he's president

the more i listen to this record the more i shake my head at the whole "he's a bad rapper who made a good record" narrative. i think he's a lot more versatile on this then people are giving him credit for - he kicks a lot of different and nice flows all over this and his hooks for the most part are unfuckwithable - like "TTG" and "G check" are fucking sick, totally fully-formed hooks that not any old hack can write.

i meant "grove st party" not "g check" but the latter is nice too

my potna on the pill, my otha potna drunk
rollin a lot i'm tryna get fucked up

roll up the loud im trynna get fucked up

yeah i couldn't figure that out

Waka Flocka Says Obama Parody Is Borderline Disrespectful

new boy on the block so you know my pistol jerkin
you got weed, soft, pills, fucka is you workin?
bank account hurtin so you know a nigga robbin
don't got a joint ain't fin ta squeeze so what's the option

^^fire

the more i listen to this record the more i shake my head at the whole "he's a bad rapper who made a good record" narrative. i

"no if you think about it, lil b's really a dope rapper

...

hey whiney

deej's pitchfork review is really, really good y'all

http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/14771-flockaveli/

Great review.

great album and great review.

great review deej, though one line I'd disagree with:

There are no attempts to integrate nuance or complexities, gray-scale morality, or introspection.

I think there are moments of nuance and introspection here (besides the obvious "Fuck This Industry," also "Karma," and even "For My Dogs" ). Obviously that isn't Waka's forte nor is it the appeal of the album, but there are moments that point to more than his usual "yes I'm 'gon rob you, and then I might kill you" steez.

Still, great review!

I'm gonna say "great review" instead of being a deej and focusing on the one or two lines i didn't agree with 100%

nice job deej--you really make the case for the album to someone who might be unfamiliar or unconvinced

this is right, but i felt like drawing attention to that wd just give fodder to ppl arguing we're building up something that doesnt really exist -- it does exist, but its not the 'point,' u know

probably should have just used slightly less absolute language there

whiney feel free to point out where u disagree dude

nah it's all nitpicky shit

i saw this review and i was like imma twitter that

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

facebook pfork page has some excellent responses to the review

"brainless filth like Waka Flocka Flame"

smh

so glad P4k doesn't have a commenting system on the site

why did i go + read those comments

i would love to see the same people's responses to reviews of metal records.

loved the review dude

great review deej

That is a well-written review that I disagree almost 100% with.

just connected review with ilx poster. this (a) isn't my favorite style of music at all and (b) i had no previous interest in (and only a dim awareness of) the act, but fwiw, the review's made me want to at least hear the album and give it a chance.

yeah honestly deej that review is better than the album

that review goes hard in the paint

deej killed pfork

Der3k St0ne Today is the day I leave Pitchfork as a reader... it's been a good run guys, but this is too much.

wtg deej, proud of u buddy

R0bbie D'Amic0 This is why pitchfork is usually pretentious hipster ruhtards! half the time... they review things based on one person and what they like and blacklist other bands...complete shat! you want to review a hip-hop album review Cyhi da Prynce mixtape royal flush...
