Love "Tangerine" and the leaked singles.

I love "Tangerine" and "Turns Me On" the best.

The beat on "You Ain't No DJ" is go blown out I keep expecting dude from Sleigh Bells to float down and play some monster riffs on it

T.I. sounds so...sexy riding that guitar on "Tangerine," don't he?

al have you heard him on the new mary j song? best he's sounded in like two years

Haven't heard it yet! Would like to.

Okay, "best he's sounded in like two years" sounds really awesome considering he's basically been killing this shit out of everything since he got out.

j0rdan do you think t.i. has not been killing shit since he got out of jail? if you do, then I think it's fit for me to declare that we have a disagreement on the subject of whether t.i. has been killing the shit out of everything since he got out tbrr

love that Big Boi reps for Texas Pete

Yeah, this is great. Vonnegutt sucks, though. Love "Tangerine" and "You Ain't No DJ" and "The Train Pt II" a lot. Then again, I thought "The Train" was one of the best (and only good) songs from Idlewild.

yeah i think he's been average on street ish and embarrassing on shit like "hello good morning" but he sounds great on the mary joint imo

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 05:47 (fourteen years ago) link

I agree with Rev, T.I.'s been killing it lately. Even on the Drake track!

rennavate, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:15 (fourteen years ago) link

this album is brilliant. and i agree w/rev, t.i.'s been killing shit this year, though i haven't heard the mary j track.

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:25 (fourteen years ago) link

he pretty much always sounds sexy tho!

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:26 (fourteen years ago) link

T.I. is good on "Hello Good Morning". It's really nice to hear all these T.I. joints on the radio all of a sudden since he's been missing for a moment tbh

The Reverend, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:36 (fourteen years ago) link

I should probably actually listen to this album, huh

The Reverend, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:36 (fourteen years ago) link

it goes w/o saying that rick ross on "hello good morning" >>>> t.i.

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:41 (fourteen years ago) link

what, no

t.i. >>>> nicki minaj >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> rick ross's terrible verse that i have to actually fwd past every time now

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:46 (fourteen years ago) link

tip's whole verse is invalidated by saying "i'm the captain of the cool kids"

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:47 (fourteen years ago) link

no surfboardso but ross has been dropping hot guest verses/remixes all year

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:49 (fourteen years ago) link

like what? "hello good morning" and that k michelle joint are the only ones springing to mind and he's not good on either of them

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:53 (fourteen years ago) link

hello good morning, o let's do it, angels (is that 2010?), all i do is win (remix)

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 06:58 (fourteen years ago) link

also he wrote diddy's o let's do it verse which is the best on the song

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:02 (fourteen years ago) link

i haven't heard the "o let's do it" remix because for some reason i just didn't find "feat. diddy and rick ross" all that tantalising a prospect

which "angels", the dirty money one?

can't really remember anyone on "all i do is win", don't like that song much in the first place

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:05 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah i thought "all i do is win" rmx was really boring at first but i hear it all the fucking time down here cuz khaled works at the big rap station and i've actually warmed up to it -- ross, nicki, busta, jada, fat joe all have pretty good verses considering

his two angels ones are awesome imo -- wish that beat was a rick ross song and not a dirty money song, even tho i can get into it in the right mood

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:08 (fourteen years ago) link

diddy has a fascination with ross -- i really do wonder if it's some perverted biggie thing -- they've been on 3 songs together this year already

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:10 (fourteen years ago) link

ross mugging in the background while diddy robocroons his verses in the "angels" rmx video is really a treat

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:11 (fourteen years ago) link

the original "angels" has really grown on me but i can't imagine what fatass rick ross would add to it

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:13 (fourteen years ago) link

dope verses namely

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:13 (fourteen years ago) link

last train to paris
wheels look like a ferris
your jeweler should be embarrassed
rick the ruler my moolah produced the karats
let's bow our heads i gave you something to cherish

~~~diddy's autotears~~~

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:15 (fourteen years ago) link

I haven't heard a version of "Hello Good Morning" w/ Ross or Nicki, or any of these other remixes you guys are talking about so

The Reverend, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:17 (fourteen years ago) link

I mean obv I've heard Diddy's "O Let's Do It" verse from his epic youtube vid

The Reverend, Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:18 (fourteen years ago) link

lord forgive me i'm talking oatmeal in the winter
talkin leather interior, oak wheel in the center
my nigga deal coke, still into opium
condominiums in the center of ethiopa

hell hath no furry (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 07:19 (fourteen years ago) link

diddy's thing at the BET awards was the only one that was even remotely good

even through my crappy PC, this album sounds awesome. i love the soft 70s sounds that bubble up through the disc, e.g., the organ in turns me on.

Daniel, Esq., Wednesday, 30 June 2010 08:53 (fourteen years ago) link

Ridiculously anticipating this, I had no idea it had leaked.

Vulvuzela (Matt DC), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 09:38 (fourteen years ago) link

will do so on the strength of this

samuel :D (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 30 June 2010 09:55 (fourteen years ago) link

I like that song but less so this one, altho its Chicago derivativeness is way more evident:

this stuff is not bad but yeah I find the beats/music totally boring

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 20 August 2014 17:21 (ten years ago) link

this is my own personal idiosyncrasy but the further rap moves away from funk rhythms usually the less I care about it on a strictly musical level. why because I am old and conservative now lol

tastes of ppl who enjoy rap for its 'wacky characters'

and idk if this is directed at me or not but Waka and Keef are not wacky characters...? they're def caricatures of a certain type

i'm not judging his career tho, i'm just saying I don't like his recent shit & I'd be cool never hearing "Dark Horse" again (that's not entirely his fault though)

nova, Thursday, 21 August 2014 04:05 (ten years ago) link

young thug isn't middlebrow but there are aspects of his persona that def appeal to the (and middlebrow prob isn't even the best word for this) generic tastes of ppl who enjoy rap for its 'wacky characters' aspects instead of the music

the only people keef's buzz has disappeared w/ are media types, i mean the hottest rookie rapper of 2014 just got signed aping the GBE sound of two years ago

ok but isn't this always gonna be an element with left-field creative types, no real getting away from it

also I don't think finding some of dude's lyrics/delivery amusing or getting amped to the "wackier"/wilder elements of his flow/beats has to be condescending or ironic

I don't know if it's by people not really listening to the actual music instead of just reacting to the idea of what "Native Tongues" represented

it's gotta be this, i don't know how anyone could listen to tribe or jungle brothers or de la soul and come away with "preachy"

brimstead, Thursday, 21 August 2014 04:59 (ten years ago) link

Yeah the perception of Native Tongues got to be that they were preachy and boring so quickly, that's how they seemed to me when I started listening to hiphop in the mid90s. Thing is I kept hearing A Tribe Called Quest singles and got over it p quick

sonic thedgehod (albvivertine), Thursday, 21 August 2014 05:08 (ten years ago) link

I've tried to articulate those points in that past and failed. I will probably be referencing and/or copy n pasting that post for many years.

FKATlovestofu better (Spottie), Thursday, 21 August 2014 05:25 (ten years ago) link

Really the Tongues only started getting preachy in 96 and even then not all of them.

The Reverend, Thursday, 21 August 2014 06:07 (ten years ago) link

And even then it's of the jaded, hectoring variety, not in the earnest, wideeyed way of say Arrested Development or first album Digables.

The Reverend, Thursday, 21 August 2014 06:10 (ten years ago) link

Stakes is high is a pretty preachy album. I know a lot of people think it's the best De La album but it's where they fell off to me.

longneck, Thursday, 21 August 2014 07:22 (ten years ago) link

could be argued that nearly anything else comes off "preachy" when pimp/thug/dealer amorality is your baseline for realness

Adding ease. Adding wonder. Adding (contenderizer), Thursday, 21 August 2014 07:29 (ten years ago) link

The Native Tongues don't really exist as any kind of group or movement by Stakes is High

ruffalo soldier (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, 21 August 2014 13:10 (ten years ago) link

at the time the criticism was that they were soft and flaky not preachy fwiw

one year passes...

Big Grams, the quicksilver collaboration between six-time Grammy Award®-winner Big Boi, and the groundbreaking genre-bending duo Phantogram (Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter) have completed their self-titled studio debut, BIG GRAMS. The eponymous 7-song collaboration will be released September 25th on Epic Records.

BIG GRAMS marks Big Boi's first official release on Epic Records, since signing with the label last year. Phantogram and Big Boi collaborated previously on a handful of tracks from Big Boi's second solo album, 2012's Vicious Lies and Dangerous Rumors, namely "CPU," "Lines" and "Objectum Sexuality," the latter also produced by Phantogram. Phantogram have released multiple EP's and two studio albums, which have produced two Top 10 alternative hits, "Black Out Days" and "Fall In Love." The duo is signed to Republic Records.

BIG GRAMS TRACKLISTING
1. Run for Your Life

Lol I never did check out the second album cause it seemed so conceptually flawed and I was never as hot on the first album as a lot of people were but this is cool. Phantogram's 2000s hiphop vibe works for him.
