I have to admit, although I think he's a sock, the sarcastic amazon review threw me for a loop, like actually in-character doing a tongue-in-cheek amazon review is next level trolling

xp Hurting I hate to burst your bubble but it looks like he just c+p'd some random Brit's review of the first RTJ

I don't think RT is a sock. Probably an old Hip Hop Infinity board refugee

Haven't enjoyed an artist profile as much as I enjoyed that RS piece in a long time. Great work on that; fantastic read
― Evan R, Friday, 31 October 2014 01:13 (eleven years ago)
(I think my problem with RTJ boils down to: indifference to El-P's production choices; so much of what's there feels flattened out in a way that the entirety of the songs slip past me or something.)
― RAP GAME SHANI DAVIS (Raymond Cummings), Friday, 31 October 2014 01:13 (eleven years ago)
(That said, love the backstory, the reviews, and the features. Wish the actual music inspired the same excitement.)
yeah the RS article was a great read (just joining the complimentary bandwagon here)

Thank you, Evan and ama!

Thoroughly late to this but, Whiney, your piece on this is amongst the best music writing I've read all year, thanks! <3

yeah it's excellent. between that and 'Aphex and his friend talking shit over email' an entertaining few days for longass music writing

Really love this album, much more than the first one

Love that One Direction fans cross over with this album.
Yes, it's still crap.
― Raccoon Tanuki, Monday, 24 November 2014 13:15 (eleven years ago)
the show on saturday was really fun although i gotta say that "love again" was missing a crucial verse without gangsta boo there
― La Lechera, Monday, 24 November 2014 15:31 (eleven years ago)
Yeah, her presence on that track is kinda the point, no?
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 24 November 2014 16:09 (eleven years ago)
xxpost oh raccoon you have so many more reasons to hate me than you even realise.
― Tim F, Monday, 24 November 2014 16:10 (eleven years ago)

I would like to give all thoughts and prayers to the people out there peacefully protesting. and I also give thoughts and prayers who could not hold their anger in, because riots are only the language of the unheard
