no one really fucks with gucci in 2011 frankly
― The boyboy young jess (D-40), Wednesday, 19 October 2011 23:42 (twelve years ago) link
that said riff raff is nowhere near the rapper gucci was
i just think he's more amusing than any gucci stuff i ever heard, i think i listened to one of the "classic" gucci tapes a few times
but i don't really like gucci so...
but this

they're not in the same lane at all though -- gucci was street rap, this dude is just goofy paul wall type joeks
― The boyboy young jess (D-40), Thursday, 20 October 2011 00:30 (twelve years ago) link
i thought part of gucci's appeal was his "wackiness"

sure his humor was part of it but he was a lot more multi-dimensional than riff raff
like, who the fuck is riff raff? there's no story here, no background, its just joeks
― The boyboy young jess (D-40), Thursday, 20 October 2011 01:01 (twelve years ago) link
never mind that his rap style is pretty much jacked from other artists, u cant deny gucci was a genuine original
― The boyboy young jess (D-40), Thursday, 20 October 2011 01:06 (twelve years ago) link
not saying you cant prefer to listen to riff raff, there's obv reasons why i can see someone preferring to listen to him, but if we're talking about quality gucci was easily the bigger artist

the thing i've started to love about riff raff is how a lot of the time (even in his recorded songs) he straight up doesn't even try and make sense, he just puts rhyming and/or saying something cool above everything... like "eating coogi salad / grape stains on the baggage" or whatever, or in the freestyle when he says something like "i got silk ghosts... bob hope" or "'saces on my care bearski". his whole existence is so knowingly ridiculous that it allows him to create these absurd images and scenarios (shaking dice with larry bird in barcelona) that heighten his natural abilities as a writer.

btw i love that he's living in vegas. he should never leave there.

so wait there's a smirky white guy doing some kind of elaborate absurdist pisstake on street rap and he calls himself 'riff raff'? are we sure nick sylvester isn't behind this?

i'm sort of stuck on how serious he is vs. being kind of an oddball comedy schtick
like hanging out w.andy milonakis kinda makes me wonder, plus that "skit" where he's in "brazil"
― the 500 gats of bartholomew thuggins (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 21 October 2011 22:47 (twelve years ago) link
haha i was just about to say this stuff seems very andy milonakis to me
― some dude, Friday, 21 October 2011 22:49 (twelve years ago) link
his music is serious to some degree... that's why it's listenable, and clearly he's talented, as least as a writer. but yeah there's a lot of lil b meme generator in there, not sure how much tho. that's kinda the fun tho.
― J0rdan S., Friday, 21 October 2011 22:49 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i sort of enjoy the goofiness either way on a comedy level and a "real" level to a degree.
i like that he *really* freestyles, which hardly anyone does anymore.
like i said, even if it's like some kinda weird lonely island but more serious bit, i honestly enjoy it more than gucci mane, who basically does nothing for me personally.

well gucci, for instance, was always kind of goofy and playful (which ppl mistook for ignorance & stupidity) but it mostly augmented the appeal of him as a street rapper... he appealed to jeezy & t.i. fans, but he clearly was his own character. riff raff to me kind of flips the scales... he's clearly working off the template of guys like gucci or even chamillionaire, but where they were "street and lyrical but also playful and funny" riff is "playful and funny and kinda street and lyrical"
i don't see much lonely island or milonakis on him at all. he def tries to meme it up but i don't think there's a ton of irony there.
― J0rdan S., Friday, 21 October 2011 22:59 (twelve years ago) link

oh i think theres tons of irony there but more like the way lil b is funny than the way lonely island is funny
