Finally Rich - Chief Keef

anyway if ethan was really the all-consuming guiding light of this board's taste i think there'd be a lot more Copywrite and Ill Bill content than is currently the rage in the rolling off a molly thread

and maybe i'm wrong that that strain of clowning assholeness that still permeates hiphop discussion here stems from him. maybe it's endemic to internet hiphop discussion.

lol you should read some actual rap boards

ilm is prob the most civilised place to discuss rap on the internet

genre-specific internet music discussion is really depressing in at both rap and metal and I would guess in other genres that I don't pay attention to. Even classical boards (not the ilm threads, ilm classical threads are some of the most useful sharing of ideas I know of) are pretty dickish in a less hardman but no less unpleasant way.

delete that "at" idk how it got there

here's the top 100 reasons why metal threads are depressing

if you don't actually make a list of 100 different reasons why metal threads are depressing I will outlive you specifically to denounce you as a poseur at your funeral

lol

I Tweet On Your Grave

>>>meta threads

one thing that's not on the left-side of that term is Chief Keef so we're technically still on-topic

yes b/c it was RETRO -- i just was referring to what i expected their best case scenario path wd be in the industry

are you saying Maze's 70s/80s hits were retro? what were they throwbacks to?

no although they def werent, like, any kind of cutting edge... i just mean that it's the kind of thing that will end up w/ a moderate, touring-but-never-crossing-over audience & i could see them building up into being, like, a lifelong hip hop act that makes a decent career w/out ever being bigger than that ...

excited to hear the joey badass 'twilight' tho

yeah i still just don't understand the parallel at all i guess. lots of nostalgic boom bap type rappers carve out decent longterm niche careers, no idea how that's similar to a vet R&B group in any significant way.

lol

...

is "i got cash" new?

was in South Carolina over the weekend and heard the local rap station's countdown, "Love Sosa" was #1, like, now, in April, over much more 'current'/higher charting songs like "Started From The Bottom" and "Show Out" etc. pretty surprising, guess that song has legs on a regional level.

i'm curious to see if he goes completely down the rabbit hole and moves into completely abstract sound. it seems like the logical next step.

What's the over/under on the first ILXor to call him "outsider art" or "performance art"

what time does D-40 normally wake up on a Sunday

thanks Whiney, now I want to hear him duet with Farrah Abraham

the fuck?

As I said on the other thread I don't think this stuff is that good. Sounds like he's hitting the codeine too hard.

this is dope though

as is this:

but yeah ive never gone for the 'outsider art' thing, pretty sure the last time i heard that used to defend a rap artist it was one of whiney's freelance employees defending gucci mane

keef's put out a number of good songs this year, just needs to put a tape out

i liked the stuff right after he got out, macaroni time & etc. I don't like the shit that sounds like its verging on lil b levels of purposelessness

yeah some of it like "round da rosey" or whatever is just not very good

the songs I've heard from Keef this year are "Macaroni Time," "Ring Around The Rosey" and "April Fools"...if anything he's regressing to early childhood.

this is also big rn

the double tracked vocals on macaroni time are incredibleeee

the two new ones are pretty cool too imo

the fuck?
