I'm very happy for your enthusiasm. Don't get me wrong.

lol the first three and "poppin tags" are my favourites plus "scrape". there are some cool moments on it but it's more treading circles than honing to me, it's neither elevation nor advancement and the emotional impact is diminished after the 84392892147th mixtape/album in the same vein

xxp how did u ever engage w/ him without embracing the emptiness
even his greatest romances held their depth in ephemerality not timelessness
― r|t|c, Friday, 17 February 2017 13:17 (seven years ago) link
there was always emptiness but it had a counterweight in a certain optimism, the desire for revelation and light. That dynamic was what defined him and which made embracing the emptiness - as part of the truth but not the whole truth about human existence - appealing in the first place.

This seems fine idk I feel like at a certain pt I'm reviewing a beat tape
It picks up around "Draco" though
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 February 2017 18:38 (seven years ago) link
yeah draco beat got me perked

This seems fine idk
yeah this is where I'm at, nothing special, nothing awful

other than Draco on the first half it seems like he's done better versions of each track already.
Back half is sounding good tho
― Spottie, Friday, 17 February 2017 18:46 (seven years ago) link
there are hints of emotional future in the second half, particularly "when i was broke"
― royce jung (slothroprhymes), Friday, 17 February 2017 20:53 (seven years ago) link
back half def picks up.... my EP is like:
Draco, Mask Off, Outta Time, Might As Well (fav track), Feds Did a Sweep, and although I haven't decided if i like it or not yet "i'm so groovy" is cool
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Friday, 17 February 2017 23:14 (seven years ago) link
or interesting, i should say
POA is cool but that flow is overfamiliar to me or something

haha music criticism grappling w/ its greatest nemesis in real time
― r|t|c, Saturday, 18 February 2017 10:09 (seven years ago) link
that looks like i'm implying my being above it but (obviously) that is not the case
it's just striking how often the word has come up now and earlier itt (cf johnny fever observation upthread)
the hot take is that the simultaneously notional and v concrete agency of nebulous ~cool~ is the ultimate ilm blind spot and og 1st wave foundational poptimism was probably tacitly self-defined itself against it
― r|t|c, Saturday, 18 February 2017 10:21 (seven years ago) link
craig jenkins tweeted his ep from the tape, same as mine except 'when i was broke' in place of 'mask off' (he might be right)

i'd cut some songs at the beginning and end, but otherwise i think this is a really good record from him. some of the tracks are really fun--zoom, draco, POA, mask off, high demand, i'm so groovy. this sounds 100x better than EVOL to me and on the level of ds2

The Atlanta rapper has funneled most of his music through three personas: Super Future, Fire Marshal Future, and Future Hendrix (he explained them as the hitmaker, the party packer, and the rockstar, respectively).
