"super high" beat is way better & john legend is kind of matthew santos-level annoying on that hook
― J0rdan S., Monday, 12 April 2010 23:22 (fourteen years ago) link
oh u mean like rappers being emo, well that's only a small part of lil b but i'm all for it when they don't come off as manipulative careerists
"barry white production opulance" that doesn't stick around OTM re ross

yeah see i can understand the hook complaint i guess but 'magnificent' is a lovely beat to me and just as nice as any other - if it had been az or j stalin or whatever on it yall'd be buggin
― r|t|c, Monday, 12 April 2010 23:25 (fourteen years ago) link
I liked "Magnificent," don't get me wrong, I just didn't think it was that great or anything. This is pretty slick, though (this being "Super High").
― rennavate, Monday, 12 April 2010 23:26 (fourteen years ago) link
i liked 'deeper than rap' way less than 'trilla', as far as such thing could go -- i dig the sound that ross has minted, but the album was about 3-4 songs too long, didn't have any bangers along the lines of "the boss" or "here i am" or "luxury tax"
― J0rdan S., Monday, 12 April 2010 23:28 (fourteen years ago) link
the 1st clouddead album was mellow enough & I wouldn't be surprised if lil b was a fan but the mentality is more direct &very different. lil b's talent is as a performer, so confident that anything he does can be art; publish a book of text messages. indie is the wrong reference for rapping w/ a loaded gun to yr head.

cmon guys surely it doesnt fall to me to drop a sage francis deejbomb round here
― r|t|c, Monday, 12 April 2010 23:35 (fourteen years ago) link
that's why i said anticon rather than strictly clouddead though, it might not be that album per se but the "talent is as a performer, so confident that anything he does can be art; publish a book of text messages, loaded guns" blurb all still strikes me as very reminiscent of what one of those guys would do or have have done solo?
― r|t|c, Monday, 12 April 2010 23:40 (fourteen years ago) link
no, lil b's very direct, 1st person posturing&philosophising through his youtube channel doesn't remind me very much of dose-one-style ringmaster performance or whatever else you're thinking of (but I wld have thought that's the closest). The almost self-help vibe of lil b is closer to a new age, spa-music, lifestyle mentality, which is why he raps about yanni and not odd nosdam.

while we're talkin these newish type guys, never got a co-sign on this tape

i agree w/ rtc about rick ross, and lil b
― The BoyBoy Big HOO$ (deej), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 00:04 (fourteen years ago) link
altho lil b def has more of a pop ear occasionally so maybe its kinda rong
― The BoyBoy Big HOO$ (deej), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 00:05 (fourteen years ago) link
iirc i cosigned that starlito tape upthread, zvookster. anyways cosigning it now just in case.

yeah i was just rethinking the pop/wayne/indie/manipulation since ogmor seems to be unaware that "new-age self-help spa music" is like the trendiest possible thing right now save a geocities page and a gif of a digitally rendered sea or something. (plaxico can answer any further questions i'm sure.)
basically the time is ultraripe for a pm dawn revival ppl!
― r|t|c, Tuesday, 13 April 2010 00:15 (fourteen years ago) link
actually k3vin co-signed it also on another thread, i now recall

whole lotta people said i wouldn't reach shit/now all the bad girls wavin got me sea sick
― tmi finney (samosa gibreel), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 00:23 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm aware both of lifestyle music as a trend and how irrelevant that is to whether or not lil b sounds like anticon

i was told that i was the most interesting guy in the world by this girl/that said that i can't be with her because her friend had me first/so i say in this verse and play this for her!/your friend that is/ahaha i still luv u!/well...that's the name of the CD

starlito is such a nice cool smart funny guy. definitely the least sociopathic of rappers that get talked about itt.
― tmi finney (samosa gibreel), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 00:58 (fourteen years ago) link
tbh noz's months of constant lil b boosterism seemed gross and off-putting to me, weirds me out that people are actually paying the guy attention now

hes totally not the kind of rapper im into generally, but it makes sense to me that he would have a following

gross how?

btw googling lil b is p hard to find anything- any actual tapes to go for (and where?)
that starlito is my jam.
― he might have even have gone in. (a hoy hoy), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 07:52 (fourteen years ago) link
this, if it was ever actually released
http://www.basedworld.com/wp-content/plugins/random-image/6Kiss/LilB-6KissFRONT.jpg
really i would just watch videos on the dude's youtube channel & then download some that you like, or else it can kind of be a deluge
um, also noz posted a compilation, which he posted on cokeblunts

from his youtube channel i would check out "i'm god", "insane", "death of rap", "birth of rap" and "really waterfront"
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 13 April 2010 08:07 (fourteen years ago) link
lol at title "really waterfront"

this is also really cracking me up & guaranteed to be in my head all day tomorrow
The first time I heard this song I thought the hook was saying “lemon lime” over and over
i may not be able to drink yellow gatorade or sprite ever again w/o that repeating in my head tbh

him putting this on his P&J ballot was one of the things that was gross to me btw

prob worth making the point that ship's adventures on the noznuts are a diff conversation to the lil b one, and since he doesn't feel like explaining what he's talking abt, not a v productive one.
― tbrrprint (2) HD (zvookster), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 13:28 (fourteen years ago) link
one of my fav things about B is his Vans...

he has been wearing them since the Pack (obv) and won't take them off until he has $1 million

this is every lil B song ever and his most essential links (none of his secrete twitters or 75 myspace pages). it also gets updated. kind of like the encyclopedia of the based god

i don't really know what this means. i've worked with the guy and i hold him in high regard as a writer, i just roll my eyes sometimes when i go to his page and it's another post about some rapper he seems to be really buddy-buddy with that i don't really have any interest in hearing more from.
― the ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (some dude), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 14:09 (fourteen years ago) link
i mean i listen to a lot of rappers nobody else cares about and know some of them IRL and will write about them from time to time, but if i made a zip file of my favorite tracks and put it on my p&j ballot, i'd fully expect people to shake their heads a little bit.
― the ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (some dude), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 14:13 (fourteen years ago) link
well that's not gross that's just annoying for u

i didn't realize u use gross in a Clueless way, thought u meant something by it
― tbrrprint (2) HD (zvookster), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 14:19 (fourteen years ago) link
well i'm just kinda ocd about these things, the idea of a year-end list having an 'album' that originated in your brain or hard drive, same reason i gave forks a hard time about his youtube things. anyway it's news to me that i'm some kind of hater or groupie of someone i regard as a peer who regards me as a peer, but w/e.
― the ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (some dude), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 14:19 (fourteen years ago) link
lol "who regards me as a peer" braggin 2010
u said u found his lil b coverage gross & off-putting, that's the context for ur adventures itt, no need to look wider. u can make it all abt the p&j ballot if u want but that's a retreat & confusing gross with gauche in any case
― tbrrprint (2) HD (zvookster), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 14:25 (fourteen years ago) link
if u don't find anything deeper wrong with it or repulsive then gross was a weird word is what i'm saying

ok gauche then.
for real zvook i know we got off on the wrong foot a while back but i'm trying to be straight w/ you and not give you any undue attitude. this crew/thread has enough butthurt vendettas as it is.

i think i've said before that noz putting his own compilation on his p&j ballot was really stupid, as i could've just put my own gucci mane cd-r as my #1 album
