Words from the Lex:

What both Odd Future and Lil B are doing, at heart, is trolling their elders in the hope of provoking reaction. So why does Lil B seem so much more exciting? Perhaps because he understands that truly brave trailblazing entails trolling your own core demographic, not outsider strawmen who have no time for you anyway.

great point / good piece for the most part lex

Yeah that's spot on Lex

yah that is a good point

can't argue

A great followup on Twitter as well:

tomewing Tom Ewing

@alex_macpherson love the piece but if you think of OFWG's core demog as liberal music bloggers they certainly are trolling it!

alex_macpherson Alex Macpherson

@tomewing liberal music bloggers are possibly unique in that trolling them and pandering to them is often the same thing

Lil B caused a furore

had no idea y'all spelled it this way~

that's p gangsta spellingwise imo

And with songs entitled I'm God, I Am the Ocean and I'm Paris Hilton, I'm Gay is less of a grand statement than it might appear.

this line made me lol

i think "furore" is a britishism a'la "colour" and "football"?

how else would one spell "furore"?!

i had no idea. good lord that spelling is ugly

Mein Fuhrere

anyway lex no joke i think that's the best piece of crit i've read all year

wow thanks, appreciate that

yah, that's a good bit of writing.
the "never known a victimized woman so to them it's all comic book" made me think of s. clay wilson, whose work i read at the tender age of eight or nine when i would sneak out checkered demon comix from my dad's pile of undergrounds. that shit did me in and was TREMENDOUSLY confusing; lots of rape and murder in black and white with details that prepubescent me could barely process. It didn't leave any lasting scars though and I can't imagine that ofwg's shit will either once they get past the nihilist stage and start doing more fun adventurous stuff. the songs of theirs i like best is when they're fucking around and battling in grocery lines or just battle rapping

for those unfamiliar with wilson, here's a representative late era nsfw sample - http://www.sclaywilsontrust.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/P7290003.jpg

whoa lex that angel haze on the evidence of the first couple tracks sounds like exactly what I've been looking for! preemptive apologies to any ringtone crew who have already been repping her if I missed it from y'all

there was some discussion on the gun sounds thread (though iirc 90% of it was me talking to myself)

kinda wish she hadn't put the acoustic guitar ones right at the start, it turns a lot of people off - rest assured she goes much much harder as it goes on

the angel haze is really really good but took me a while to get into it cos the beats she goes over are (mainly) so well known. So at first I was hearing the beat and just filling in what the verses *should* be. She can definitely rap tho. Not sure that she's really doing anything startlingly more original or exciting than OF however.

yeah people with in-house production will always somewhat justifiably have a leg up on rappers who primarily do freestyle tapes

Has Goblin dropped yet?

lol ok it came out today.

the problem is that so many "outsider" artists have affected transgression by telling the world about their dark thoughts that, wrong or right, it's become boring. Tyler doesn't transgress expectations; he follows a well-worn path of faux-rebellion trodden by everyone from the Sex Pistols to Eminem – and the alleged vulnerability Tyler reveals in rapping about his absent father is entirely part and parcel of this archetype.

OTM. though i like goblin, with reservations, i'm disappointed that it casts the crew as neither futurist nor particularly odd. everything is familiar: the lazy backpacker beats, the gleeful teen transgressions, and the macho/emo internal conflicts behind them. seems like a record that could have come out anytime in the last decade. not saying it lacks distinctive character, but it's hardly innovative. compared to the stakes-raising frank ocean mixtape, that's a real disappointment.

will say that it seems strange to take tyler to task for his thoughtless homophobia, because, especially on this LP, it's a punch forever pulled. he even (weakly) subverts it with talk of his dad's dick and dancing around in all-over print panties. however disappointing tyler's rationalizations in interviews may be, goblin's homophobia is tame by the standards of the genre. there's little to it beyond the fact that he likes to call both friends and haters "faggot". it's the album's misogyny that's significant and troublesome, imo.

anyway, it's funny that forks mentions s. clay wilson, cuz i keep thinking of early r. crumb. suppose goblin lies somewhere in between, combining clay's psychedelic hellscape with crumb's self-portraiture and confessional obscenity.

OH HAY, that quote pulled from lex's excellent guardian piece, btw.

Excellent piece Lex.

I think I noticed some casual racism mixed in with the rapeness on Fish as well although it's pretty mild: "Slip it in her drink/ in the slip of an eye/ I can make a white girl look chink."

I still think this is one of the better tracks on it though.

It's a great piece, Lex, though (quibble quibble) you're wrong to throw the Sex Pistols in there. Their transgression was of a different kind entirely.

I'd say Bodies is an apt comparison.

Nah, Bodies came out of leftfield - there was nobody else saying things like that in rock. By comparison, Tyler's particular shock tactics are a well-trodden path by now. You couldn't call Bodies trolling.
