this album is better than big boi's, i'll say that much
― fapper don (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:00 (fourteen years ago)
nah prefer Big Boi's, only because BB has the gift for picking weird sounds and giving T.I. a better moment to shine.

that underground atlanta comp mike did was TERRIBLE. really bad if i remember right
― littledotheyknow (D-40), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:15 (fourteen years ago)
ha, really? shit.
― fapper don (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:16 (fourteen years ago)
Huh, weird on Spotify desktop the real album shows up, but only the clean version shows up on my phone. Unless I'm doing something wrong, which I probably am.

i forgot about this "underground atlanta" thing -- my interest is perked retroactively

it was kind of whatever iirc - good pill song and a couple other ok joints but other than that it sucked
― twittering spinster (k3vin k.), Thursday, 31 May 2012 22:38 (fourteen years ago)
also iirc was like 30 songs?
oh ha what d-40 said
this album is a banger
― Snowqueen's Icedragon (crüt), Thursday, 31 May 2012 23:40 (fourteen years ago)
Bit more of a chitty chitty bang bang. Especially next to Schoolboy Q who is exceptional.
― Damo Suzuki's Parrot, Friday, 1 June 2012 00:08 (fourteen years ago)
you are trolling me.
― Snowqueen's Icedragon (crüt), Friday, 1 June 2012 01:35 (fourteen years ago)
Not at all. I just don't like the album that much, no need to take it personal.
― Damo Suzuki's Parrot, Friday, 1 June 2012 01:47 (fourteen years ago)
apparently his next album is gonna be produced by burn one. should be dope.
― The Reverend, Friday, 1 June 2012 18:19 (fourteen years ago)
nice
― Number None, Friday, 1 June 2012 19:18 (fourteen years ago)
didn't think to check if there was a thread; been loving this since it dropped and the single is a MONSTERwith a very Driver influenced zombie video that i can pass onbut likely track o' the year material; best bun b feature i've heard in forever

New video for Big Beast is pretty cool and very NSFW

lol the first 3 or so minutes i was like oh this isn't that band then o_O naked zombie chicks eating brains

first video to directly rip drive?

kinda diminishing returns on this album
― kanye kardashian (lex pretend), Friday, 8 June 2012 07:58 (fourteen years ago)
oh man, that video.

album gets better with each listen
― President Keyes, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 00:55 (thirteen years ago)
It's really good, but while half of it feels natural, another half feels like producer + MC. I've been obsessed with Mike since I first heard him. My ranking:
1. Pl3dge2. pledge 13. rap music4. ghetto extraordinary5. pledge 26. monster
― paulhw, Wednesday, 27 June 2012 01:11 (thirteen years ago)
kinda need to see this live i think

oh shit that reminds me...
i think the last two tracks are amazing.
― pvmic bellvm (goole), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 03:00 (thirteen years ago)
The whole album is impressive, but I think the back half is stronger.
― to welcome jer.fairall, pie is served. (jer.fairall), Wednesday, 27 June 2012 03:13 (thirteen years ago)
just getting around to hearing this. awesome stuff.
― alpine static, Wednesday, 15 August 2012 21:01 (thirteen years ago)
maybe my fave album this year

Yeah, it def has a shot at being my #1 right now.

"Willie Burke Sherwood" is my jam
― a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:23 (thirteen years ago)
I've deliberately avoided everything with El-P's name on since someone on ILM conned me into buying 'Fantastic Damage' 10 years ago and while I like this a lot there's something profoundly unfunky about most of the beats here. Obviously Mike himself slays and the production makes up for its clunkiness with sheer force but in practice I don't really want to go back to it that much.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:25 (thirteen years ago)
it is kinda of cramped
― goole, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:26 (thirteen years ago)
it had really rapid diminishing returns for me, was initially really into it but already could not care less
― lex pretend, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:42 (thirteen years ago)
'kinda of' ha whoops
― goole, Thursday, 16 August 2012 16:42 (thirteen years ago)
i think this record is pretty inconsistent & wish i'd read what felt like a very honest piece on it because it also has some great songs
― protected by viper. stand back. (D-40), Thursday, 16 August 2012 17:08 (thirteen years ago)
I will stand up for everything but Anywhere but Here
― "Batshit crazy," the foam clog tycoon said. (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 16 August 2012 17:39 (thirteen years ago)
"Jojo's Chillin" for me.
― a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 16 August 2012 17:41 (thirteen years ago)
aka the best song on the record

― Jandek at the Disco (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 16 August 2012 18:32 (thirteen years ago)
It's an impressive record that's short on replay value.
― Vagelis (The Reverend), Thursday, 16 August 2012 18:41 (thirteen years ago)
Yeah. I listened to it a lot for a couple of weeks, haven't felt any need to play it ever since.
― Tuomas, Friday, 17 August 2012 10:34 (thirteen years ago)
i have similar feelings about it - something about the beats is just exhausting, too trebly, too harsh for headphones
― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Friday, 17 August 2012 11:36 (thirteen years ago)
get a hi-fi, man
― catbus otm (gbx), Friday, 17 August 2012 15:01 (thirteen years ago)
I don't find it that trebly, (then again there's a fuckload of really trebly rap production from the last few years) and it packs a lot of punch. "Cramped" is the right word maybe. Kinda lumbering as well.
― Matt DC, Friday, 17 August 2012 15:03 (thirteen years ago)
Production is just fine.
― Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Friday, 17 August 2012 15:27 (thirteen years ago)
Y'all are using words like cramped and lumbering like it's a bad thing.
― yodarman, Friday, 17 August 2012 18:33 (thirteen years ago)
Seriously tho
― Fareed Zaireeka (Whiney G. Weingarten), Friday, 17 August 2012 20:03 (thirteen years ago)
oh noes this sounds like weird old noisy 80s rap records halp
― Fareed Zaireeka (Whiney G. Weingarten), Friday, 17 August 2012 20:04 (thirteen years ago)
not really
