ODD FUTURE WOLF GANG KILL THEM ALL

did you explain to her that he doesn't really rape chicks

your dad is female?

he doesn't really rape chicks?

Having only heard Yonkers, it seems like he has a really similar flow to Aesop Rock in a couple of different ways.
I'm sure it's covered extensively in the 2000 posts here, but the "faggot"s are kind of a dealbreaker for me - I dug the song a lot otherwise.

yup, sounds like aesop rock but misogynistic/homophobic/violent/etc., totally otm. i'll pull out my old copies of Labor Days, Float and Bazooka Tooth and be perfectly content w/ that, thank u

yonkers vid is great btw admittedly

he doesn't sound like aes rock to me at all. more locked into the beat, less sardonic. i think he compares better to 90s nyc underground dudes. i'm struggling to think of exactly who though

He's pretty sardonic. Except for when he isn't.

the only thing from yonkers that i could imagine in an aesop rock song is the stevie wonder couplet

He sounds like Rock from Heltah Skeltah

Oh and these guys are great.

stoked for these guys but rape jokes keep me from going back to listen more than once

hope they can stay rad but grow up a little too

Were ILM people this squicky about Eminem's rape and murder songs back in 2001-2003? Or is it okay to hear that from a cartoonish white guy but not from black teenagers?

Sort of being snarky here, but I have several irl friends that are all dismissive and refusing to listen to Golf Wang, specifically citing the misogyny and violence; but these dudes never batted an eyebrow at the same stuf from Marshall Mathers. I hate to bring in race here, but, man, its kind of hard not to think about it.

Also the same folks complaining about Odd Future don't have much of a problem (if any at all) with, say, Cannibal Corpse. If Odd Future went so far as to actually call a song "Stripped, Raped and Strangled" or "Fucked With a Knife" we'd be reading Voice editorials all goddamn year, but somehow when married, middle-aged white men do it (and have been doing it for ~20 years) it's ignorable, even though I think it's a fair assumption that skateboarding teenagers listen to Odd Future and Cannibal Corpse.

Note: I don't have a problem with either group. Or rape jokes, as we all know.

Her dad admonished her: "They talk about some crazy shit and as a female, you're slapping a lot of women in the face."

I'm like, "That's what I do. I slap bitches."

lololololol

ILM back then did some serious pants-wetting over how awesome Eminem was back then

I always hated him, barring a couple singles

I found eminem really repellent back in the day too

my problem with eminem was that he wanted to be taken seriously.

like he was really emo in a way that Odd Future are not imho

yeah, eminem was always putting off this I don't give a fuck vibe

but he gave a fuck

I could tell

there was a whole subtext to Eminem that you were supposed to care about his trials with his mom, his wife, his kid, that he had FEELINGS and he was MESSED UP and O THA TRAGEDY btw here's some rape jokes and fags are lame

the juxtaposition was actively irritating to me

Well, wasn't really trying to swing this into a discussion about Eminem's relative merits, I was just wondering if there were many people on ILM straight up dismissing him because of the misogyny and violence.

mostly people complained about his whiny voice

i think tyler is v v emo!!!

cannibal corpse got a lot of controversy back when they came out, tons of death metal stuff did!

so did eminem, everyone was handwringing about him!

jon/via i think you are kinda monday morning quarterbacking here.

also, i reject the idea that it's somehow wrong to have a prob with some of the stuff that oddfuture says.

Tyler is pretty emo imo (amo omo umo)

And now everyone's bored with the subject? Or used to it? So we should wait out whichever critics have decided once again to get shocked and horrified by lyrical content, even though artists they're no longer paying attention to have been saying all this exact same shit for decades?

I made this point in re: geto boys about 10000 posts ago

but media critics in caring about what's hot shockah

This stuff remind me of both Wu-Tang and early 2000's Anti-Con stuff.

this shit was probably already posted 1000 posts ago but i fuckkin love it

NO WAYYYYY

I was just coming to post that.

A month earlier and Bieber's remix album could have had a Tyler feature.

was it tyler or hodgy who rapped about killing bieber?

Tyler has a mad boycrush on Bieber. But it also might have been Tyler who dropped the Bieber line.

something about cutting his balls off

that picture makes me so fucking happy

fucktyler Tyler, The Creator
I Fucking Win Today. @iamdiddy Thanks For The Chain Nigga. AAAAHHHHH!!!!!

need to be quite careful posting on a thread where people have hard knowledge and fully worked opinions based on that, because i don't, but hell, I'm drinking.

I really really like the stuff I've heard. I don't get people saying the stuff's just goofing around trying to offend - it seems full of depression, obsessed in more than one song about suicide. the rape/faggot stuff is repulsive but feels like a heavy portrayal of a dark psyche - the more absurdly nasty it is in some ways the better because it's less realistic. feels ballardian in some ways.

so the whole suicide/depression schtick feels like the pay-off. there's nothing rewarding in the pose- it's nasty and will kill you.

The cumbersome, peristaltic flow really contributes to that - like people struggling to spurt the words out.

think it's great.

i didn't think i liked this too much but i can't stop playing that tyler track w/ the roach video

OMFG THAT PICTURE

And Diddy bought him a chain? Does he just do that with everyone? That totes explains how hip-hop can still be 'bling' in an age where no-one sells any records - Biggie is paying for it.

ilu for this fyi

if we didn't like every musician who gives a fuck, we wouldnt have much music left to like, though, would we?

let's not like musicians who give a fuck that is exactly what I am saying

Hmm... So JHawk and Left Brain are cousins. Puts the jerk-hate in perspective or whatever. Or not.
