People are just being confronted with something new and don’t know what to make of it
In all honesty this is where I am. I haven't given it a full chance yet, but it's a pretty big swerve in style

Thinking abt this Jzone thread
I used to bag on artists making 180 degree change till I hit a point it felt like everything most wanted or expected from me made me want to torch my studio and what I really wanted to do was exactly what they didn't want. With experience now those artists inspire me the most.— J-Zone (The Du-Rites) (@jzonedonttweet) December 21, 2020

The new Carti is the only rap album I've really liked this year.

it sounds like rico nasty to me
― flopson, Sunday, 27 December 2020 05:47 (three years ago) link
some combination of the first sremmlife and 1000gecs is what keep coming to mind for me. I agree, I like pretty much every track on this and it moves on to the next before anything ever gets a chance to get stale

its what i wish rico sounded like to me lol
― ILX’s bad boy (D-40), Sunday, 27 December 2020 06:29 (three years ago) link
which, same thing, but still
i don't really see it as a big change in style, it sounds like the leaks mixed with the production rico or other soundcloud rappers get.

i didn't keep up with the leaks or anything but to me it sounds just like he's just leaning even further into his existing idiosyncrasies rather than it being any sort of left turn
really good album

I'm listening now and it is really great (maybe a xmas release wasn't ideal? lol). But idk maybe it's cuz I listened to the s/t a lot more than Die Lit, and I've never heard any leaks, but I feel like he's using his voice in a bunch of different ways on this, e.g., his super raspy voice on Rockstar Made.
― rob, Sunday, 27 December 2020 15:03 (three years ago) link
i mean it just seems like a fairly natural continuation of what he was already doing even though there's new stuff there
― ufo, Sunday, 27 December 2020 15:07 (three years ago) link
Ok yeah that makes sense, it's not like he put out an album of ballads or something
― rob, Sunday, 27 December 2020 15:12 (three years ago) link
never heard die lit but this just sounds like carti to me
― ||||||||, Sunday, 27 December 2020 15:53 (three years ago) link
i hope the deluxe is only with the baby voice though
― ANU (sisilafami), Sunday, 27 December 2020 16:01 (three years ago) link
This is way more aggro than die lit or the leaks, come on
There’s a reason stans keep saying the second half is “better” and it’s cuz “place” is the leak aesthetic whereas most of the rest is in the new style ... and I don’t agree that it’s just standard production, there’s clearly a curated sound here that separates it from the earlier stuff
― ILX’s bad boy (D-40), Sunday, 27 December 2020 19:47 (three years ago) link
the whole vibe of the album is a midpoint between the leaks and stuff like this

I see some common sonic touchpoints but that’s a pretty disparate list of “influences” to suggest it’s a more conservative “midpoint” between the leaks and those. More like a ramped up version of those
― ILX’s bad boy (D-40), Monday, 28 December 2020 20:33 (three years ago) link
Really I think the producer-auteurs prob most responsible for this sound are the working on dying guys who’ve been doing uzi’s shit but they went in a new direction here
― ILX’s bad boy (D-40), Tuesday, 29 December 2020 01:49 (three years ago) link
it's a great album, no doubt about that
― flopson, Tuesday, 29 December 2020 03:40 (three years ago) link
i'm starting to think so too. can't stop thinking about "punk monk"

It’s probably my favorite rap album this year, haven’t been knocked back by something like this in awhile
― ILX’s bad boy (D-40), Tuesday, 29 December 2020 04:16 (three years ago) link
Yeah this or EA

tempted to stop my end of year listening and slot this in given the collective shine but i think ahma wait for 21

Doom homage title is weird to me & counter the traditional spirit of these threads frankly but ppl get mad at me for pointing this out every year and I no longer care

lol i typed & deleted the same thing cuz i didn't wanna come off as a dick but it's true

yeah, this is the main reason why i bumped the thread and didn't just start a new one.
there's gotta be something we can use that doesn't have "coochie" in it
