ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL

And "1017 Bricksquad 666 OFWGKTA; Can't Wait" according to Tyler.

lupe's an idiot -- he also tweets #based all the time & shit

he's talked to pharrell before iirc but yeah that's what it seemed like from those tweets

Like...is this all a result of Fallon, or just the inevitable result of a few months of underground buzz? I feel like there's not a major player in the rap game at the moment who isn't watching these guys.

yeah this had me wondering -- they def have the ppl to reach out at this point, but you never know w/ tyler & how much he tweets about wanting to work w/ certain ppl

probably a combo of higher profile + the dude that is handling their press & booking likely has a lot of connections & ppl he could reach out to

i would doubt tho that pusha t was just at home on wed & happened to flip on fallon and be like "oh i had heard of these guys...."

I've been aware of them since pre-summer but I am also somewhat a sk8rboi

rly tho, these dudes are somewhat famous in the thrasher-crowd. a lot of skate forums have been using gifs of tyler eating cereal for months as sigs.

ok, but am i wrong in saying this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl6jwab3HWk

from the initial get-ups to the comparisons of WU! TANG! to WOLF! GANG! are not... well, kinda a step-back?

oh yeah soulja boy made a song called "swag me out"

post obnoxious amounts of rap youtubes on fb

definitely guilty of this :( am i creepy?

without dickriders and creepy youtube stans it would be impossible for anybody to ever 'blow up'. i wouldn't sweat it.

this is their moment and it's kind of fun to watch it happen in real time... maybe the first time the porthole to the process has been so completely open because the band is so transparent and always has been
best to just enjoy this in the now methinks

No Fucking Problem.

I Don't Why People Actually Give A Fuck That I Capitalize Every Word. The Ones That Complain Are Faggots

welp,

Sweatshirt album is pretty good imho. he seems to lean pretty heavy on one or two rhyme patterns tho

using gifs of tyler eating cereal for months as sigs.

this totally reminds me of the Biz fwiw. I wonder if these guys even know who the Biz is lol

yep, i just discovered this...i take back my angry rants on todays hip-hop...wow.

Bieber is joining odd future. He just announced today. Isn't that somethin.

somewhere taylor swift's spider sense goes off

alex in mtl OTM

lex_ferenda Kind of shocked that Kanye, trend hopper extraordinaire, is somehow the last of hip hop's elite abord the OFWGKTA bandwagon.

Seriously, right? Kanye....Mr. backstage-with-Feist, look-at-me-I'm-sampling-"Young Folks", I hang with Daft Punk and listen to indie rock BON IVER BON IVER BON IVER.

And not only was Pusha there first, so was LUPE, so was Mos, etc.

Actually, maybe he's been on the Golf Wang tip since summer. And that's where Earl is. Earl has been in Hawaii at Kanye's studio for the past six months.

or maybe ye is getting old

they seem to be right at about the level people usually are when kanye starts dickriding them, he doesn't seem especially 'late' compared to his embrace of other artists

what is so special about that video

or song

I really do not get these guys at all.

And Frank Ocean signed to Bad Boy, apparently.

haha waht

Hah. I got clowned. Mike G tweeted that in the midst of all the Kanye celebrations by Tyler et al. Ocean corrected it just now.

damn, tyler just took a shot at brainwasher & shipley #shotsfired

fucktyler Tyler, The Creator
At Least Some Niggas Is Happy For Me, Cause It's Alot of Niggas Who Literally Hate To See Me Smile. And Vice Fucking Versa. Dookie

Yeah, cuz Tyler spends his free time on ILX when he's not busy being on TV and not wiping his ass.

i'm joking!! sheesh

quick to the sockmobile to keep this going

#shotsfired

anyways you can be w/e about the song but that's a sick video

^^this

Is it wrong that Tyler hanging himself disgusts me less than him biting a cockroach in half?

swg

c'mon i thought we agreed #shotsfired was being replaced by #beefstew

he1geson coming correct once again

- it's immediate. I show that video to people, and it takes them about 3 seconds ("I'ma fucking walking paradox / No I'm not") to understand where dude's coming from and what he's trying to do, artistically

- at the same time, OF backstory/mythology/intertextuality seeps into every aspect of their work and gives the dorks something to dork out about, while remaining vague and mysterious enough (unlike maybe wu-tang style in-your-face mythos?) to seduce newcomers a la scientology

... and it's got a good beat and you can dance to it

wu was pretty vague and mysterious to me when they first came out, it's hard to remember when they weren't all like icons and stuff, but i was all like who the fuck is this?? why is that guy wearing a mask? what are all these weird ass kung fu samples??

i'm not crazy about the video for yonkers tbh but the song is fuckin great

yeah this sort of hit me like WU did when they first came out...just something about it.

the wu comparisons are obvious but pretty accurate
