dude went from nu-nas to 'i think wiz is better' over the course of one album :-/

i mean the thing is i just don't hear him going for the same stuff on this record. all these beats are so languid and jazz fusiony, he doesn't really give himself a chance to go hard here, maybe for the sake of album flow. there aren't really any bangers!

I think he sorta lets loose on tracks like "Address" (great track: "MAKING HOT WHEELS OUT OF HOOPTIES!"). And I think he goes in just as hard lyrically, it's just that the flows aren't as speedy. But the beats aren't built for those kind of flows.

the thing that's great about him is that it's almost impossible to tell where lines begin and end...
yes, otm!

"the hangover" is kinda hilarious cause he raps over a 110 bpm beat like it was 130 bpm, with the former seeming just as relatively fast for him as the latter would be for most rappers

the more i listen to 'this aint no mixtape' the more i realize i pretty much missed the boat not calling this a classic last yrhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYkPxF2bYkg

don't really understand how this guy got so huge, how did ppl become fans of him? like "where da cash at" was cool and if he was still on young money he might be their best rapper, but i've yet to hear any recent solo stuff that's exciting on any level.

i mean why are cheech & chong huge .... its no big mystery, hes an affable stoner w/ a unique persona & is a really really skilled rapper
hes also been rapping coast to coast w/ pretty much anybody from j stalin to french montana, doing the regional guest verse thing
― NOT FUNNY NEEDS MORE GUCCI (deej), Thursday, 19 August 2010 12:22 (thirteen years ago) link
maybe 20% of all rappers talk a ton about smoking weed, though, and him and wiz aren't exactly red & meth in terms of approaching it w/ humor or personality
― richie goingham (some dude), Thursday, 19 August 2010 13:05 (thirteen years ago) link
there really arent that many rappers who talk about it this exclusively! kinda tiring of the Some Dude 'why is this rapper suddenly so popular??' thing -- made more sense when u were talking about big krit, less so a rapper who has been releasing mixtapes and building steady buzz for the last four years while guesting on lots of ppl's songs
― NOT FUNNY NEEDS MORE GUCCI (deej), Thursday, 19 August 2010 15:45 (thirteen years ago) link
xp i don't think the point of curren$y is to approach it with humor--his thing is a lot darker imo.

curren$y isn't about being funny (even if he is sometimes), he's about being ~~fly~~

30,000 feet or pilot talk?

pilot talk
i'll check out some of those tapes in a bit, don't think i've heard any of em
― ciderpress, Monday, 23 August 2010 03:09 (thirteen years ago) link
i've been out of the loop on rap for a couple years now, gotta start lurking rolling goon thread maybe
― ciderpress, Monday, 23 August 2010 03:12 (thirteen years ago) link
i get why ppl think currensy is boring if theyve just heard pilot talk tbh
― NOT FUNNY NEEDS MORE GUCCI (deej), Monday, 23 August 2010 04:28 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, it's fine has its moments obv, but i think it's prob the least good currensy album/mixtape i've heard

ok this doesn't sound quite as miraculous a few days later but it's still the best rap album i've heard in 2010. which probably means i need to hear more new stuff, but i haven't seen anyone repping hard for any albums/tapes this year except for this one and the big boi disc.
― ciderpress, Thursday, 26 August 2010 04:26 (thirteen years ago) link
i liked this but didn't love it, maybe need some more listens tbh

i agree that curren$y is more of an effect than a leader on this album but goddamn the beats are good and C doesn't take anything away from them.This feels a little frontloaded to me. Real nice overall tho'.

I dunno, I actually think Pilot Talk is better than his previous stuff, as a whole.

yeah sorry it is a bit predictable from me. but MTV Jams keeps playing the "Life Under The Scope" video back to back with Wiz's "This Plane" and i'm just scratching my head like holy shit this is some boring-ass rap music. the "Scope" beat is so wack I'm disappointed in Ski for making it.
― some dude, Thursday, 26 August 2010 13:38 (thirteen years ago) link
wtf that beat is great!
