nice!
ftr, I'm not a sonic youth fan per se but certainly have nothing against them, frozen burritos can be pretty all right though
― metro slothrop want some more (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 4 February 2016 04:54 (ten years ago)
those r prob p good as far as frozen burritos go but i cant say im a fan of the genre
― lag∞n, Thursday, 4 February 2016 04:56 (ten years ago)
i am fan of sonic youth tho they own
i like sonic youth prob as much as i like a really good fresh burrito

We need a new poll to decide this

evol is possibly the best SY album
― marcos, Thursday, 4 February 2016 20:52 (ten years ago)
loool is that really a sample from "street spirit"? xp
― marcos, Thursday, 4 February 2016 20:53 (ten years ago)
i don't think so? but tbf i haven't listened to street spirit or radiohead in general in quite some time
― metro slothrop want some more (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 4 February 2016 21:02 (ten years ago)
*listens to street spirit* ok yeah it very well might be
does sorta seem in line with sad future
― metro slothrop want some more (slothroprhymes), Thursday, 4 February 2016 21:06 (ten years ago)
future "al sharpton" is better than any of the records on purple reign imo
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Thursday, 4 February 2016 21:31 (ten years ago)
really liking the production on evol
― metro slothrop want some more (slothroprhymes), Saturday, 6 February 2016 06:06 (ten years ago)
i like evol more than ds2

i dunno how much i really dig "Al Sharpton" but Future/Mike Will is such a potent combination that i'm kinda annoyed that he keeps pushing back Ape Shit to release increasingly samey Metro Boomin/808 Mafia-heavy projects
― some dude, Saturday, 6 February 2016 14:35 (ten years ago)
yea I'm getting kind of worn out on the metro boomin / 808 mafia sound
― marcos, Saturday, 6 February 2016 15:38 (ten years ago)
agreed with deej that this is better than ds2. really early to tell but this is so great it may be my favorite recent future record
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 6 February 2016 16:21 (ten years ago)
is it better than ds2 because there's a "bangbang" adlib on lil haiti kid? if not that, then what?
I'd say this is easily his best since ds 2 but i also need some new colors soon.
― human and working on getting beer (longneck), Saturday, 6 February 2016 18:09 (ten years ago)
He needs another Zaytoven project
― thom yorke state of mind (voodoo chili), Saturday, 6 February 2016 18:34 (ten years ago)
that would be cool too, although the light sprinkles of Zaytoven on DS2 and Purple Reign work well
― some dude, Saturday, 6 February 2016 18:49 (ten years ago)
on first listen these all have like the same beat :(
― marcos, Saturday, 6 February 2016 19:29 (ten years ago)
he does some real cool stuff with his flows on this but i dunno, even for a recent future record it felt a bit grim & nihilistic for me. something like "xanny family" feels almost obligatory to me? like the hook doesn't even really work.
of the real rappy ones at the beginning i think i like "lil haiti baby" the best but "lie to me" & "low life" are my favs on this i think if only bcuz he sort of steps out of this real narrow frame of mind for a second
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 February 2016 20:04 (ten years ago)
i think i prefer some stuff on purple reign like "inside the mattress" "drippin" and "perkys calling" to most of this album, and the idea that this is better than DS2 seems off on its face to me
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 February 2016 20:07 (ten years ago)
steps out of this real narrow frame of mind for a second
speaking more musically than spiritually here i guess
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 6 February 2016 20:08 (ten years ago)
"inside the mattress" is great true
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 6 February 2016 20:16 (ten years ago)
I´m expecting a song by song face-off from the evol > ds2 crüe.
― human and working on getting beer (longneck), Saturday, 6 February 2016 21:11 (ten years ago)
lol ok
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 6 February 2016 21:18 (ten years ago)
it's resonating with me pretty heavily bc it's paced like 56 nights, extremely focused at its start and gently expanding about halfway through ("seven rings" -> "fly shit only")
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 6 February 2016 21:22 (ten years ago)
plus "maybach" bangs
― HYPERLINK TO RAP GENIUS (BradNelson), Saturday, 6 February 2016 21:23 (ten years ago)
^otm that stood out the most to me 1st listen
― johnny crunch, Saturday, 6 February 2016 21:32 (ten years ago)
this is easier to listen to front to back than ds 2, maybe there's a couple "higher highs" on the latter (not including the bonus tracks obv) but i also just like the production more, the idea that all these tracks sound the same though is completely insane

yea feeling this too
― johnny crunch, Sunday, 7 February 2016 00:07 (ten years ago)
i think "ain't no time," "maybach," "photo copied," "seven rings" and "fly shit only" are my faves. really impressed with the whole thing tho, even the weeknd's presence on "low life" doesn't screw anything up
― metro slothrop want some more (slothroprhymes), Sunday, 7 February 2016 17:22 (ten years ago)
ehhhhhh, I prefer the slight, new thug. y'all can keep this version of future, I have no use for it.

word
― Hey (Extended Mix), Sunday, 7 February 2016 22:59 (ten years ago)
this is so much better than "i'm up" (and "purple reign" too)
― ANU (sisilafami), Monday, 8 February 2016 00:04 (ten years ago)
Maybe it's better to people who can get any enjoyment out of this incarnation of Future and that's fine, but I can't get with his current music at all.
― Hey (Extended Mix), Monday, 8 February 2016 00:20 (ten years ago)
The sudden appearance of a no dj Substitute Everything on this J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League sampler sealed it for me. That's the Future I'll always need.
― human and working on getting beer (longneck), Monday, 8 February 2016 02:00 (ten years ago)
let me just drop this in here for ahem future reference

i don't think my problem with purple reign or evol is really qualitative so much as just a SURFEIT of future. i'm a fan of the nihilistic tunnel vision but there's no reason for this much material to have been released, who the fuck needs that much future in their lives? at this point it's not showing me anything i haven't heard from him and the quality of the songs/beats would need to be amazing rather than fine to transcend that.
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Monday, 8 February 2016 17:53 (ten years ago)
i mean this is the ultimate listening-as-churn, mixtape to tide people with goldfish attention spans over for another week, it feels completely pointless even listening knowing that another identical one will probably be along in a month and there's no way these songs are ever going to become part of my life or mean anything to me
― cher guevara (lex pretend), Monday, 8 February 2016 17:54 (ten years ago)
i don't think the thug mixtape is any great shakes either. evol is probably better.
― J0rdan S., Monday, 8 February 2016 18:23 (ten years ago)
i listened to both and my thoughts are m/l "fuck the da lady in her mouth tho" vs "herca herca les". leaning towards the former
― r|t|c, Monday, 8 February 2016 18:43 (ten years ago)
The Thug tape isn't great but at least it has about four songs where the rapper sounds alive and guest appearances by his sisters.
― human and working on getting beer (longneck), Monday, 8 February 2016 19:04 (ten years ago)
i like the thug tape but it's definitely a minor pleasure. i do think his minor pleasures are better than future's (so i'd take it over 'purple reign')
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Monday, 8 February 2016 22:21 (ten years ago)
yeah im ready for futures next phase, not to sound ungrateful
