Big Boi - Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty (2010)

this is incalculably better than MBDTF - may well make my year-end ballot

to whom are you submitting your ballot?

to ILX

i never feel like relistening to this

lol i guess i already said that. oh well, i still don't quite get why it's disappointing, but it is.

yeah i got the same feeling but i kinda feel like i was being unfair so i'll give it another shot eventually

and now we hate this

it's too likable to hate, and i had a good time with it for a while, but i don't really feel like relistening to it and i'm not entirely sure why either. there's nothing that leaps out as an obvious negative.

this is still my fave hip-hop album of the year. i enjoy it a whole lot more than the kanye album.

^yep

this is better than any outkast album and in fact better than any album ever released except fo my beautiful dark twisted fantasy and the new diddy

feel like it's an album where it's really easy to just pick your fav 2 or 3 songs and move on. there's an incoherence that sticks with me--like you gain nothing from listening to it straight through, in order. which is fine, but kind of makes it something other than a "great album."

bingo

good album and hard to fault but it just doesnt have any... substance? not substance as in 'important messages' but theres just not much meat to it that make me want to return to it. has about 4 songs i rate though. dre3000 and big boi = lennon and mccartney of rap. both decent without each other but they really need the other ones input to make their individual stuff more 'whole'.

eh i think its got some individually great songs it just isnt a record i want to come back to a lot
maybe if the songs the label cut were included

i can't even

i never feel like relistening to this

me, either, but i'm less of a rap-fan than some/most of you, so . . .

whiney it's not like this was a hands-down goon consensus album or anything before this thread was bumped

eh i think its got some individually great songs it just isnt a record i want to come back to a lot

yeah this is prob what i feel about it...i can't really fault what's there per se, but all the singles that i loved before the album were somehow made a bit worse in album context.

it's still a v likable thing though - i don't get annoyed when i see it crop up like i do w/kanye or [insert everyone else who keeps cropping up here]

probably listened to this album more than any other album this year

still fucking love this album

then again, I would

Yeah it's a great album, and I mean that in "it's fun and it's a blast to listen to" way rather than some lame Q magazine This Is Greatness way. It's a bit patchy but so are Stankonia and Aquemini. If you stripped it down to its best 10 tracks it'd be difficult to fault.

Eh, I love this: every song, even the blah ones, pricks my ear in some way. My #3 record of the year.

my #2. high-five?

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/0

:D

my #1

my #30,000 100,000,000

I'm new on ILX, and figure my first post should be to chime in and say this is my #2 album of 2010. Although I probably listened to it more than anything else this year...

I've been wondering what # that actually translates to

#3 in his top 10,000 surely

Not really sure how to do this quoting stuff. I'll give it a shot:

Band of Horses, "Infinite Arms." Boring, I know, but I love the songs and the performances. And there might be just a tiny sliver of sappy sentimentalism in that pick, too. Spent a lot of time singing those songs to my new (and first) baby this summer. This goes against everything I feel in my cold, hard, calculated critic's heart, but hey ... what can I do?

I *do* love the songs, though.

Well, there you go. Messed up the quoting / block quotes. Sorry, all.

Not really sure how to do this quoting stuff. I'll give it a shot:

Thanks, ilxor. Rather than practice here, I'll try to get it right next time.

imo we shd clown this new poster repeatedly for their failings

haha j/k welcome 2 ilx <3

fuckin n00b

imo we shd clown this new poster repeatedly for their failings

new board description?

how dare u Alpine, using your newborn child as a reason for naming Infinite Arms ur favorite album.

NO FAIR >:(

(welcome!)

can't believe the new poster named his child "infinite arms," after an album

it's still a better name than Pilot Inspektor

or Lucious Left Foot
but not Chico Dusty, that's a great name

Didn't Pete Wentz name his kid Mowgli?

Chico Dusty is a badass name

I'm naming my first kid Potato Pentangeli

Chico Dusty is the name of my character on Rock Band.
