Thraed of Lil Peep

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

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

disengaged learning

not engaging with thread starter /= not engaging with topic

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 :(

i know u wanna facetime / baby i have samsung / when i met your mom she told me i was handsome

take the nobel from dylan and give it to this man imo

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

this is good rtc

this hits a strange, previously unimagined sweet spot

bits of it are grungy, other bits lofi, and some of it reminds me of ... modest mouse. is he from somewhere near the NW?

I heard a rumor Lil Tracy is Ish from Digable Planets' son

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uV6YOP5iWys

hes better at rapping than Peep but they complement each other well

Anthony Fantano calls Lil Peep's "Hellboy" one of the worst ten albums of the year:

https://youtu.be/ebQcgnlz5SU?t=2m52s

Ha. Solidified as one of the greats then

i missed this thread the first time around, but it is a treat. i enjoyed Joan's 'grunge harmonies' posts.

i heard this when it came out because i kinda know one of the producers, whose vibe is very much mall punk + witchy/cloudy/sad boy rap. i get it and it might be the best-executed thing i've heard in this style, but is still basically unlistenable for me personally.

also on that Lil Tracy track either the vocal track is misaligned or he's just mad out of time. sounds like the former to me. i know there's a lot of tolerance for that as a sound post-Lil B but i cannot take it.

that reminds me, Digable Planets are playing here tomorrow and I can't bag my friend's election party to go see them ;_;

I'm still lolling that peep's most frequent collaborator is the son of a member of digable planets this whole thread is a bunch of ppl basically admitting they've given up on following where the culture is headed

I prioritize what sounds good/is interesting to listen to over concern about "where culture is headed"

if "this whole thread ... basically admitting" means straight years of petulant deeply entrenched incurious revelry then yeah

someone is mistaking "where the culture is headed" for "what deej and some guy at pitchfork fancy atm."

yeah deej peep aint poppin in these norwegian streets

i for one welcome our banal self-pitying white rap overlords

itt white on white violence
