you are aware of "snatch" as in the sense of "pussy", right?

like he's saying the snatch he met at the party is baffled, etc.

baffled also means to block sound or light
so maybe he's saying he silenced the girl

but then idg who's asking about her
it's just an impersonal asking

they get kicked out by the bouncers at the end of the verse. there's clearly a dictated party staff present.

"asking where her ass go" answers this question. because while snatches do not do this, a bouncer might.
― normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Friday, 21 January 2011 18:21 (fifteen years ago)
either interpretation works imo
"party staff" more satisfying in giving the scenario a strong sense of place tho
why don't one of you journo types interview earl and ask him O RIGHT he cant be found

I listened to this again and he clearly says "sta" whether the "ff" is enunciated well that's another story, maybe he said "stache" like the party moustache, what kind of party has a party moustache?

OK, so I've immersed myself in OFWGKTA this weekend and I have concluded that the only truly great MC is Earl, and Tyler is only good for cameos and making beats. A lot of these 'posse cuts' are weak and this crew is too young to have their own Theodore Unit(s).
The Earl album is a front to back banger - a great (if short) 'album' in the tradition of Ready To Die and 36 Chamberz. I'll go to bat for that. The rest varies too much in quality. Also, the 'rape' stuff is out of hand.
PS I posted 'ofwgkta!' as my Facebook status the other day and it went 103 posts before I deleted it. Dudes were calling each other douchebags, hipsters, making threats...

cool post thx dawg
― flopson, Sunday, 23 January 2011 19:49 (fifteen years ago)
all the tyler & earl tracks slay + session is cool, so idk what posse cuts yr talking abt
bastard has an overarching framework that makes it hang together as an album whereas earl is barely a record, 'just' 25 mins of dope loose tracks
seems to me that mellowhype & domo have their charms
― zvookster, Sunday, 23 January 2011 19:53 (fifteen years ago)
Who would think that a group of teenagers who released 12 albums in a year would have some that vary in quality

man tyler is such a great rapper. i feel like he's improved? my faves are his verses are on blackenedwhite (when i saw wolfgang you say fuck that/room full of wolves inhalers & used blunt raps) also looove his verse on fuck the police. definitely two of my favourites verses of the year. i like the character stuff & wolf haley interplay plus such dense rhymes spit so mean yet so nonchalant & graceful (houston we have a ni**er down and the ni**er that did it loves them gun sounds/bust triple six rounds now thats six cops found on that ground)
― flopson, Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:03 (fifteen years ago)
Wasn't bragging - didn't know half the cats on there posting. It just got outta hand. I was just trying to sorta illustrate how divisive this shit is. But, you know, whatever.
zvook - "Session" was what I was thinking about. Domo and Hodgy are ok, but who the hell are Jasper, Taco, Casey Veggies, Vince Staples, etc? Some of these fools are sub-Ice T's Syndicate. I can't hang with 15 tracks of Tyler, either, dude just doesn't have the lyrics or the flow to sustain an album IMHO. I dig the idea of an overarching framework, but it just isn't original to me. Dudes have been mining the 'I"m troubled and suicidal and I'mma shock you now, look, I'm a cutter and shit" thing for a while now - Cage has made a career of it.
Earl, to me, is something special. "How the fuck I fit a axe in a satchel?" LOL
As for Biggie etc - I think there's plenty of reason to name-check dudes who've made hip hop classics (and, err, Theodore Unit) when discussing a dude who has the potential to make one in 2011. Just sayin.'
― If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be An Airport, Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:05 (fifteen years ago)
oh my god, they've been a band for like a year, wait for the other dudes to come up or like turn 20 before dismissing them entirely for fuck's sake.
― Fuckin' perfect. Like Marilyn Chamberz perfect (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:08 (fifteen years ago)

― Fuckin' perfect. Like Marilyn Chamberz perfect (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:09 (fifteen years ago)
yeah heaven forbid that ppl evaluate music that exists here and now instead of judging artists entirely on their potential
― bernard snowy, Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:10 (fifteen years ago)
Yeah, I was gonna say. BTW I'm dismissing them entirely while listening to nothing but for the past 48 hours.
Also, seems like hip hop's a young man's game - you bought a Jeru or a Black Moon album recently? - and so if cats are putting this shit out, why not judge it on its merits instead of trying to justify the (occasional) wackness?
― If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be An Airport, Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:11 (fifteen years ago)
I can see Whiney in like '91 - "I don't know, I think these Da Youngstas' best days are ahead of 'em. Illegal, too. Give 'em a chance, fellas."
― If Assholes Could Fly This Place Would Be An Airport, Sunday, 23 January 2011 20:13 (fifteen years ago)
rap is a young man's game but it's rarely as young as 16. And it's hardly ever made by teenagers who come fully formed with such a defined aesthetic. Like, all I'm saying is, I'm not ready to dismiss Taco because I'm not 100% sure we've been shown what Taco can really do yet.

I just accept every friend request that comes in, really.
I'm not 'barging' - I've been active on the Earl thread. This one too, I think, upthread, but who can keep track, really.
I came here because I've been listening to thsi so much I think it's soundtracking my dreams right now. Sorry you disagree with my assessment and it's made you butt-hurt and territorial. If anything, I'm just going on record, because, like a lot of you, my first exposure to this I was all "OMG best shit ever, love of hip hop officially restored" and now I'm just sort of taking the time to take it all in and listen more critically.

"barge into" vs. "post in" (xp oh assport touched on that already nvm)
I mean I like these guys but I don't understand why they have to stand or fall as an entire crew? just seems like laziness/unwillingness to engage critically with something u love & are excited about
