That tumblin erb post is def the most cogent argument I've read, and I can definitely hear that erratic push-pull energy in his cadence — which is, of course, the most electrifying thing about thugger. But iunno, he def sort of plays the subtle card since his beats are always so stoner-stoner-pass-me-the-hookah chillax. It's kind of the same reason Sonic Youth never clicked with me since they're supposedly this wild, noisy act; but it's all controlled in this chill mumble-rock music. Some people would call that maturity, I guess, but it just kind of strikes me as energy-suckin
I do like "Danny Glover" and "Picacho"

Think Rev pointed out earlier itt that Thugger is actually technically very good
Like it's not just all weird voices
Every time he goes doubletime it feels exciting and affirming
SHEESH
It's effortless and sounds good to my ears

I for one am shocked that a rationalization via inadvertent 90s rap nerd forerunners has mollified whiney

I'm not sure I see how this is more a quan project than a thugger one... Thug feels more central to this and is the one w the longstanding London on the track affiliation iirc

Why the fuck are we talking about Primus btw. The same dudes behind Wynona's Big Brown Beaver or w/e. That same track people were including on comedy CD-Rs you'd burn for your friends in 2001.

I feel like ppl have implanted false memories in themselves of their experience w 90s NY rap, like I didn't catch most of what ghost or Rae were saying the first hundred times it's just like over years of repetition it becomes a part of your dna and you're reticent to give a new record that kind of time. But the more I listen the more certain lyrics jump out and evoke a feeling or make me laugh

yeah booming post
it's really something i like about Young Thug that he's so unconcerned with making every punchline land -- a lot of things have clear internal logic like "it's my time like Flava" but he doesn't spell it out with a reference to Flava Flav's clocks. it's like the opposite of Drake's Papoose-style overexplained lines like "she said she workin' for Walgreens but not in the store, at the head office/ the head was so good it makes sense why you work at the head office."
― some dude, Wednesday, 15 October 2014 11:45 (nine years ago) link
Hahaha is that a real line
In one Papoose mixtape Remi has a song about her & Pap and she says "I give give three holes like a three ring binder" anyway now u know that

It mystifies me that you dudes can get into this but not the new keef stuff I mean basically the diff is he's just a more extroverted/outwardly extreme personality (which is to say m@tt's comparison isn't bad at all)
― deej loaf (D-40), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 19:40 (nine years ago) link
deej i don't actually hate keef btw, i just think you get a bit carried away
but yeah i totally see the similarities between the two
― u2 removal machine (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 19:58 (nine years ago) link
i luv keef but the nihilism can be kinda tuff 2 take i imagine is the issue for some people rather than stylistic considerations its just a very dark vibe
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 October 2014 21:17 (nine years ago) link
if i listen to a bunch of keef songs or try to listen to a whole mixtape in a row it kinda wears me out
it's like mr. bungle in that way (no whiney)
― u2 removal machine (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 21:20 (nine years ago) link
I don't think he is nihilistic and found his tapes had moments of joy and exuberance in a dark context but still
Also after hearing it I have trouble listening to more mediated musical violence ... For me, his stuff makes other artists harder to listen to not vice versa
― deej loaf (D-40), Wednesday, 15 October 2014 21:23 (nine years ago) link
Deej, do you think you could make a top 10-15 keef songs of 2014 so far list deej? I want to get into the new stuff but there's just so much and I don't have the energy to sift through it all.
