kanye to the forum has a 24 page thread on the pitchfork review of keef's album

it's 10:30 a.m. ET

lol, that's what i call a work ethic.

im not wild about jayson's review from an accuracy standpoint tbh

er, factually its accurate, i mean his descriptions of keef & waka's styles doesnt wash for me

yeah last night on fb you mentioned you took issue with the description of keef 'not being a lyricist'

can you expound on that?

lol wow i can see ppl perching at their keyboards now

im busy at the moment but i'll add some context in a min.

no rush i gotta "work" anyway

i thought jayson's review was good also keep in mind he turned it around insanely quickly

yeah i thought PF still waited for the week of release to run reviews, was surprised to see that so soon

and miss a chance to get something out before everyone else and thus the page views? and "the first verdict?" hell nah

yeah but there are hundrends of equally anticipated albums they didn't jump the gun and do that with, is what i'm saying.

probably starting eoy rollout next week or something

ah good point

yeah today was the last day of reviews before the end of the year, so that was why

er, factually its accurate, i mean his descriptions of keef & waka's styles doesnt wash for me

I think it's well written but I probably slightly disagree with him about almost everything.

There's a lot of joy in this to me, which is why it works so well, Keef's brand of aggression is closer to Gucci's cool but menacing aggression than Waka's, and, yeah, Keef is a kind of lyricist - the minimalist kind. People tend to equate lyricism with a certain quantity of words and metaphors and, sometimes, sincerity and "messages". But Keef is pretty precise with his words, for all his cooler than a coolers, and the minimal style suits his persona. He gets the message across.

ive basically come around to every song on the keef album & my resistance to 'ballin' is slipping as well :-/

whiney u wanna keep ilx beefs to ilx please

FTR I liked jordan's pitchfork review of keef, felipe's fader piece, and kk's red eye review

i didnt agree w/ EVERYTHING in each of them but thats true of like ... anyone

and for what its worth, critics are panning this p much across the board w/ terrible opinions

haha do you keep forgetting there's a keef thread or what

this time it was on purpose i just prefer the rollin rap thread

have we decided between rollin off a molly or rollin molly ratchet yet?

you say no to molly ratchet, summy d cain't

sorry "laughing to the bank" is awful awful awful how can you like "ballin" less

yo whiney do me a solid & stop referring to message boards @ stuff that is linked directly too me

thnx

that song is fantastic

tbh when i first heard "laughing to the bank" i thought it was the worst song of the year. i kinda love it now

when i first heard it i was like, this is weird, but i didnt seem boring. then i let the dude in my cubicle make me think it was bad. then i couldnt stop thinking HAWHAWHAW. now i love it

tony yayo bite imo

when are we doing this poll

doing an explicit reference to the dracula laff is different tho

dracula?

laughing to the bank is the joke and we're all the punchline

'citgo' kinda sounds like a charred negative of a pop punk song

maybe i just need to go to bed tho

"citgo" is one of the most joyous bits of music i've heard all year

"on it" is fantastic btw

Citgo is great and so is Kobe. When that extra deep bass on Kobe stabs.....

'citgo' kinda sounds like a charred negative of a pop punk song

i've been hearing pop punk echoes in rap for years now

'citgo' kinda sounds like a charred negative of a pop punk song

Definitely. I have been listening to it for the last few days a lot, great track.

Listening to the asap album right now. So far it's everything you might expect from an asap album. pretty ZZZZzzzZZZ... At least it's well mastered.

vinny cha$e > a$ap

high praise

vinny chase the worst character on the worst show entourage > any new rapper with a dollar sign in their name

How did the A$AP leak so early though? That stuff never happens anymore.

good review imo

you should start a PolitiFact-type media watchdog site for Chief Keef coverage, give out good and bad grades for accuracy

yeah that's a good review
