ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL

^^

he says nigga, let's call that "the other n-word" or something just so we don't equate a term that stands in for any male person in a lot of hip hop with "nigger". not saying there's no issues with that word ever but c'mon

i'm not saying Cage is Mel Gibson, I'm saying he's a dumbass

"but c'mon it's sometimes ok for white ppl to say the n-word"

wow rapper Cage said something shocking

or did something dumb

xp Three months late, reppin' for these dudes for months, you know, either way. Wasn't aware I was 'clowned.' How was I 'clowned,' exactly, destroyer? Oh, right by reviving a popular thread, no wait, 'showing up and being all like 'i have OPINIONS 4 u!', aka, umm, ILX.

or whatever it is that whiney's wtf-ing about

I knew a lotta white rappers back in the day and they all used that word among rappers that weren't white. Not excusing it, just sayin.'

lol i know u aren't stupid so i have no idea why u took the time to type this. just hitting the whiney soundboard randomly i guess. but i will say it's certainly not up to whiney g to decree absolutely it was never ok for whites or hispanics to say nigga

yeah i was the def the guy who invented that it's not cool for white people to say the n-word

sorry, white people!

zvookster please give me your annotated list of when it's ok for white people to say the n-word, and make #1 "when kicking a dope freestyle"

i think the wu comparison works to whiney's favour actually. it took 10 years for every wu member to make a solo album. and dudes were mostly around 25 - 30 when they did. if you want to compare earl to anyone, look more for shyheim aka da rugged child. shyheim never got as close to thw wu as he should have and without anyone to keep him going with a bit of direction, never really went anywhere. now these dudes are 10 years younger than the wu were. we never really heard their early demos before they got deals with rca and loud. The one thing that sticks out, Words from the Genius is fucking lame. Earl, Bastard, Blackenedwhite are a league apart from the Genius Cold Chillin' record. And they have their own RZA in Tyler trying to keep them in check, less obsession with drugs to fuck them up, I heard they signed with XL a label known for getting the best out of promising acts...

Basically calm the fuck down, these dudes could comes to something special - even the ones who you are dismissing before they've even released their first real tumblr post.

thread has gone terribly wrong

4real

whiney is this because i called your corny samples thread bad? lmao

when k3vin said u were spazzing in the gucci thread bc your jay-z/kanye thread got dissed i thought at first u couldn't possibly that sort of grudge-holding nerd, but he was otm. suddenly have a looot more sympathy for deej!!

what board is good for a "the Whiney soundboard" c&p metathread btw?

also btw, lol @ calling earl's release "in the tradition of life after death and 36 chambers" and calling a late 90s fondle em freestyle complete with eminem ref "irrelevant"

lol no one is holding a grudge, i just want to know why you think it's somehow OK for cage to say the n-word in a freestyle!

c&p where u think i'm saying that, please

but i will say it's certainly not up to whiney g to decree absolutely it was never ok for whites or hispanics to say nigga

it's certainly not up to zvookster to decree it was never ok to buttfuck a pygmy goat on the A train, but i think we can all agree that's not OK and not worth picking a fight over?

^definitely not butthurt

not sure wolf gang would agree tbh

ugh no wonder i don't read rap threads you guys are so intense!!!!

i dunno seems like they're just going through the motions. needs more deej to kick it up a notch.

whiney and/or deej != rap thread crew btw.

Actually, zvook, the album is called Ready To Die, and the freestyle you posted was indeed irrelevant to your argument. The Cage you linked to is not the latter-day Cage I was pretty specifically referring to in relation to Tyler. Dude pretty much reinvented himself, didn't he? I mean, his early shit wouldn't sound out of place next to Necro and Ill Bill on a mixtape. Now he's like the evil version of Slug. Derailment, whatever, just defending what I said since you obviously misunderstood.

travel makes a good point re: Shyheim, who had a lot of promise early on - those first few 12"s and even parts of the Rugged Chyld album or whatever it was called. Not sure what happened there but it definitely helps illustrate my point that most rappers - Wu included - do their best work before they're aware anyone's really paying attention.

I love how there are like four different arguments going on at once here.

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...

i thought ofwgkta were doing it for the lulz? i dunno, but they don't come across as particularly "troubled" to me, more like they're having a ball.

I dunno, that kickoff track on Bastard is pretty heavy, dude.

o man what happened in here

posting to move bookmark

otm

these guys have collectively released 6-8 hours of music in a two year period and their hit rate is pretty damn impressive. calling tyler a subpar rapper is o_O of the highest degree.

my argument for hodgy beats as OF secret weapon is this comp with no earl or tyler tracks (ok so I may have slipped one or two tyler alias tracks in there).

yup

Hodgy isn't as much of a character as Tyler or Earl but dude is still pretty awesome.

Taco is totally the ODB of the crew

except he doesn't even rap?

oh a taco joke

Degrees of separation:

Earl Sweatshirt --> Jet Age of Tomorrow --> Om'mas Keith --> Erykah Badu

^____^

Coming to DC on Valentines Day. I guess this means without Earl.

not really feeling Jet Age of Tomorrow. :(

Yeaaaahhh, it all sounds alright and all, but it's kind of....functionless? It doesn't feel like it fits into any context where I want to listen to music, just kinda sound for sound's sake. A couple of the tracks with actual raps are keepers tho:

so far i've read that earl is: at boarding school/boot camp/grounded/on vacation.

because his mum: heard his album and was disgusted/upset at general bad behavior/ just wanted to move anyway...

what's the deal?

ah come on, this is the hit:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqNw9EnBSZg

haven't got my head around the jet age of tomorrow album yet, but i like it a lot. it's not mind-blowing or anything, but it makes for some v nice dead-brain late night chillout music. would probably go well w certain chemical enhancements, but i can relate just fine without. fwiw, i don't like either of the "tracks with actual raps" that rev posted. there's a lurching, goofy, all-elbows quality to "welcome home son" and "dust off" (another rap-centric track) that annoys me. i think TJAOTF is stronger with spacey/droney stuff like "pack up", "the finer things", and the last minute and a half of "fallen angels". of the more antic, upbeat tracks, "wonderland" stands out. no rapping, but the beats & production kill me.

but i know one thing though, you better hate me (hate me hate me)
i'm all business like a blackberry, smellin' like some strawberries
in the south of france on a FERRY...
cuz i want all the finest things in this life, smell good
dress nice, got a kid, maybe a wife settin', money gettin'

and the gold-plated automatics with banana clips
