lil b (the based god)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0dJej4Kc7E

wtf

hahahaha

who is the clandestine other half of the based god who actually holds the flip cam while B "directs" all the videos???? pretty amazing that whoever it is is never seen or heard considering that they must film all fucking day every day

oh and he has a nationally trending topic right now. this whole thing is fucking surreal.

"hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad" is prob my favorite thing ever

hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad hoes on my dick cuz i look like salad

can someone help me out with this beat?? this is an old free style but i need to know what song this is from

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NVmOpVJ6Cc

i'd like to see an animated gif of ~1:25

and man i had totally missed the kat stacks thing before this. she's crazy

cocaine is easily the best b song i've heard, such a perfect beat for his flow, proper languid and airy

is there an mp3 around?

also, it's prolly one of the best uses of extended interviews in a song ever imo.

i guess i don't fully understand what you cats are getting out of this.

like age of information was cool. good song. but honestly it's just pretty much a backpacker tune, real OG pete rock type feel, introspective lyrics, if sage francis or eyedea and abilities dropped the same track i can't imagine anyone on ILM would rep for it.

listened to a good portion of these youtubes...the more freestyle dick-oriented ones just seem...amateurish. like he's soaked up a lot of nu-wayne diarrhea mouth repetitive "dick like...X" "fuck her like [X]" type flows, even the cadences seem waynish to me.

the ocean one was kinda cool in like some jonathan livinston seagull goes hiphop way i guess...like the same sounded like some kinda cool wack dollar bin record like if david sanborn had dropped a "new age" record in the 80s or something...

but yeah overall, a good portion of these just seem like some dude fucking around on youtube.

i'm not saying he has no talent, but i think he needs to get his shit together and figure out what he's trying to do.

whiney said he was the new Sensational on some thread and that is TOTALLY otm in the same kinda broken-ish beat/flow way, but that's probably not a reference a lot of younger dudes know....

parts of it almost remind me of 2 hawd gangxsta rappuhs MCs wid gahts too

dude is pretty interesting, I like this one a lot (repped by Tim F on his year-end thread). on the other hand it's more the crazy sample that makes it for me rather than the vox.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrHMoREhnn0

definitely interesting...like you said, that's a cool, weird track

but the vox seem pretty boilerplate on that.

age of information he seems to get both the lyrics/delivery and the track right...

most of these it seems like it's one of the two, or neither

yeah im def more in m@tt's camp on this dude in general. at the same time he has some taste in beats for sure

http://nationofthizzlam.blogspot.com/2010/06/lil-b-your-favorite-freelance-writers.html

that's one of the lamest things ever written

the more freestyle dick-oriented ones

exercised restraint in not making this my new u/n

like he's soaked up a lot of nu-wayne diarrhea mouth repetitive "dick like...X" "fuck her like [X]" type flows, even the cadences seem waynish to me.

yeah like i said on the swag thread before, i have a hard time getting interested in the SO WEIRD AND UNFILTERED elements of his music when a lot of the eccentricities feel pretty similar to the established Wayne blueprint of 'eccentric rappers.' i get that the volume of his output and the variation and inconsistency holds appeal for some people who really want a Robert Pollard Of Rap or whatever, but it's like...if one of the members of Pretty Ricky or the Shop Boyz recorded constantly for a year and put every single song on the internet, i'm sure they'd end up with some weird interesting stuff but i dunno how much of it i'd wanna hear...i should stop before Noz starts sending me angry messages again, though.

"Swag on my Dick", posted above, has to be my favorite. It couldn't be lower brow, and that's where it succeeds, in my opinion.

pretty funny that he reads this thread (tho not surprising i guess, he's been all over CB's comment section) - what up lil b

jesus. between that blog post and his acting like a fuckin 12 yr old on twitter today has not been very #based

pretty ricky were already way way weirder than this guy fwiw

i still can't get past the stage where this dude is super-compelling in small doses and super-boring after, idk, 4-5 songs at any one time. also, this "upload everything on my mind to youtube" practice is sorta annoying: doesn't make him a prolific artist so much as a prolific uploader.

i don't think those things are mutually exclusive...

like, there's definitely an aesthetic that's around b that comes in no small part from watching him grind hard on youtube.

watching him grind hard on youtube

hmm maybe there really is a pretty ricky connection?

the thing that's funny to me is that, say, if this guy was on rhymesayers (and frankly I don't think he's near as good as P.O.S., who had kinda weird noisyish beats and a unique style), even mentioning him would make you goon non grata on the swag thread...

and, to me, his BEST stuff is actually the stuff that's closest to a pretty established backpacker format

i almost think he does all the bitches and hoes stuff just to make it "okay" to like him, like cover the dat nigga delmar rules a little bit, he seems like an emo dude at heart

also...a kat stacks diss track? that's just undignified, esp since she prolly doesn't even know who he is.

to me, he's sort of like a really really talented high school basketball player

he's got lots of raw ability and talent but his game is a fucking mess and he needs to focus and actually realize it's HARD to be great

for every lebron or KG there's a sebastian telfair or felipe lopez ya know? he needs to choose

but he's almost ridiculously well-targeted for a certain stripe of internet rap-slash-indie rock fan....like the human meme in the flesh

yeah the WOW HE HAS A TRENDING TOPIC thing was funny because like has there ever been a more meme-ready rapper?

like the human meme in the flesh

one word to describe me, not as weird as SPECTACULAR Smith from Pretty ricky YES

to me, he's sort of like a really really talented high school basketball player

more pitched-down east coast shit from the based god:

d-_-b

i'm trapped cuz the brothers that's resemblin my complexion
standin at the stop signs and the intersections
yeah i'm discriminatin
but my age group is hard to find friends
most of em are eliminated
watchin tv, turned on seen elimidate
man, teach me how to buy properties in 50 states
teach me about some real shit

i feel like nobody would even remember "Elimidate" enough to reference it if Gucci didn't keep dropping it in songs well after it went off the air

yeah how long has that been off the air?

btw did b get punched or something -- i was offline for a few days

yeah some kids pretended (ostensibly) to be fans and requested an interview for their youtube channel or whatever and gave a normal interview for like a minute and then all of a sudden without any warning while both we're sitting down the kid giving the interview jsut starting swinging with both fists at Brandon's face, B stood up to I guess try to defend himself and caught one right in the lip. the kid who threw the little hail storm of punches immediately walked straight to the door, completely unobstructed. no one in the room did shit as B was clearly seeing stars

it was fucked up

W..T...F

jesus

that's messed

gonna go ahead and blame Charles Hamilton for showing everyone how easy it is to do that shit

his response is weird..."i'm trying to uplift the human race"...half your songs are about blow jobs!

i don't know what's worse that that type of behavior is seen as a viable way to punk someone on film or that it's now apparently ok to hang with a rapper and not have any sense at all to at least react to a fight

xp i wouldn't conflate the content of his music which is entertainment with the way he treats other people

xp yeah, but the other half are about how he is much much more spiritual than u
