Thraed of Lil Peep

Because he's not very good?

I wouldn't necessarily say "contrarian", probably more "weirdly optimistic in the face of an overwhelming historical trend re: how ppl here react to acts like this"

xxxp - let's hope so. i voted for the Socialist, Alyson Kennedy.

oh deej loves it

between 'beemer boy' and 'gym class' man i feel like lana del rey looms over this. of all people.

"Acts like this"...the point I made in the opening post was that this was an example of an artist like years & years where it sounds bad on paper but is actually good, which has recently had a pattern of positive responses on this board actually. For some reason I can't understand the first responders on any thread I make about music are ppl like joan shakey forks et all who I share little in common w musically at least as far as new music

Oh. I'd argue that Years & Years isn't really that good either, rendering the thesis null and void but eh, pvmic etc

(I also think the specific type of artist you were thinking of would come to other people's minds more readily if you, you know, named them when you made allusions to them.)

I was the 7th person to post on this thread and I posted like 2 things but sure ok we are all out to get you

i like that, sounds like blink-182 x witch house

he's making the underlying pop melodic associations we have with pop punk

if pop punk you mean the mall punk whatever smashmouth type stuff then yes, that is very present here. Unfortunately for me.

@ jordan : yung lean has a song with 20M views... he's not as popular.

The European weighs in on the popularity of a European rapper

i think spanish people couldn't care less about a swedish rapper though.

yung lean's most recent videos have like 1-2 million views, peep isn't quite there yet but also has no press or record label

So... He's not as popular

yung lean is completely forgotten in the us except as a meme maybe. im sure that currently, peep has a good claim on being more popular

like, post malone's album is about to flop, most guys in that ironic cloud rap vein have the lifespan of a meme

Lil Peep - better or worse than Yung Lean? DISCUSS!

I do not want you to discuss that, btw. I just don't see the appeal of this outside of Noisey circles.

Kind of feeling like Lil Yachty deserves his own thread but don't know if I'll get shot down by the goon crew for starting it

Anyway, it appears nu-witch is now definitely a thing https://wiccaphase.bandcamp.com/
Whether it's a good thing or not is another matter

Lil Yachty is great, gets lots of love on the rolling rap thread

my point was that peep has probably the same audience as yung lean. I know some young yung lean fans, lil peep sounds like something they should be into.

best rap x grunge in 2016 = 'gold dust' off the danny brown record

or maybe it's dance in the water

two minutes reading an ilm thread

tell me why the fuck do i do that

am really sad to learn that he is not singing "she just want me for the culture" on that track as i had originally thought :(

this probably one of the fastest hunch/vindication turnarounds i can recall tho, good job

well p4k also reviewed some other track last month

I imagine post Malone will do decent numbers but idk I guess

ya but this track's a progression in the sound xp

if u say so man ive listened to only that 1 track

His face tattoos are bettter than Stitches's

For some reason I can't understand the first responders on any thread I make about music are ppl like joan shakey forks et all who I share little in common w musically at least as far as new music

am really sad to learn that he is not singing "she just want me for the culture" on that track as i had originally thought :(

New song https://soundcloud.com/lil_peep/love-letter-prod-charlie-shuffler

im enjoying charlie shuffler, just like how saying that name sounds

This song by peep collaborator lil Tracy is even better tbh. He also steals his guest spot on Hellboy
