Can't wait to listen...

schwantz, Thursday, 8 September 2011 20:55 (fourteen years ago)

would like to like their music cuz they seem like very cool dudes, but eh

J0rdan S., Thursday, 8 September 2011 22:44 (fourteen years ago)

It's funny, it's got great beats, and their rapping skills are top-notch. Not sure why people hate on them, unless their only exposure to Das Racist was the Pizza Hut/Taco Bell track.

yeah all of this - if anyone really is still judging based on the pizza hut track from X years ago (which i never liked) they'd be self-clowning. lol especially after sit down man which was more or less unfuckwithable - butter production + smart lyrics, i'm hard-pressed to find what's so unlikeable about it.

last year to try to figure out how to use reaper i did an edit/rmx/thing of rapping 2 u with organismo soulbeat's de foonk de disco

fauxmarc, Thursday, 8 September 2011 23:33 (fourteen years ago)

It is Relax, on Spotify.

too bad you'll never instal it, you could be enjoying Das Racist right now

I've been meaning to make a shipley-style Idolator post where I categorize the 30 types of hipster so we stop just calling all these disparate groups "hipsters"

Ned Raggett, Friday, 9 September 2011 19:48 (fourteen years ago)

ha, I saw that article but it didn't register at all that that was one of the Das Racist dudes

Tal Berkowitz - Vaccine advocate (DJP), Friday, 9 September 2011 19:53 (fourteen years ago)

have thus far managed to dodge these fellers but now Danny Brown is opening for them in ATX and I gotta figure out if I can countenance even the smallest transfer of wealth to the enterprise, so far thinking nope can't do it ---

onlydarkness.com, Friday, 9 September 2011 20:02 (fourteen years ago)

So I didn't dig the album that much upon first listen, but maybe it's a grower. A shame because I REALLY loved the mixtapes...

I don't think this is the BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR or anything but I was shocked that I actually enjoyed listening to it

(to clarify, "this" = "the ridiculous hissy fit")

sick yr finger up his butt (DJP), Monday, 19 September 2011 13:56 (fourteen years ago)

feel like whiney's "i cringe every time i read someone mentioning ilx while not on ilx" goes triple platinum for "artists mentioning pitchfork in their songs or interviews."

strongo hulkington's ghost dad, Monday, 19 September 2011 13:58 (fourteen years ago)

calm me maybe (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 10 June 2012 00:35 (thirteen years ago)

i know i'm pissed but i'm struggling to work out on which level Green Velvet is an indie fuxxor

'Last Moments Robot' Comforts You To Death (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 10 June 2012 03:45 (thirteen years ago)

i'm guessing it's either on the Whiney challenging my perceptions of what makes an indie fuxxor level or alternatively on the Whiney is drunker than me level

'Last Moments Robot' Comforts You To Death (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 10 June 2012 03:46 (thirteen years ago)

i mean if i actually had to place a bet

'Last Moments Robot' Comforts You To Death (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 10 June 2012 03:47 (thirteen years ago)

Read first post imo

calm me maybe (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 10 June 2012 04:50 (thirteen years ago)
