also at the end of "earl" they tell the 2dopeboyz dude's non-existent daughter that they killed his dad, which is hilarious

er, that they killed her* dad

yeah but method man wasn't just about horrorcore. and three 6 mafia actually made their horror sound genuinely overwhelming and dark and menacing - w/odd future as j0rdan said earlier, if you're not paying attention you'd just think it was any hip-hop mixtape w/above-average rapping but no real energy or sense of fun

if u dont like the horrorcore realness that tyler and earl bring u might still like the mellowhype album - it has the same unburdened, anarchic joy but its not as dark

oh ok i guess teenage boys do find things like sub-jackass body grossness and rape jokes "fun"

Yes, fun is the whole point. These are just kids goofing off, being deliberately provocative and having a great time doing it.

not grown man shit
I really think this is the most succinct capture of their appeal anybody's said about them.

it's not like i hate the horrorcore steez by default, though comparing odd future to prime three 6 really isn't a good look for them
― lex diamonds (lex pretend), Friday, 7 January 2011 21:21 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah but most grown man shit is fucking boring.

curious @ what kind of teenage boy was lex? Be and my best friend would watch Troma shit, John Waters shit, Sam Raimi ish all day long. Blast Ministy and Anthrax records and play Mortal Kombat and fuck yeah dude
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Friday, 7 January 2011 21:22 (thirteen years ago) link
I don't see how odd future's horrorcore silliness is any less enjoyable/more offensive than standard coke-dealer gangster shit. if anything the latter's more offensive cuz it takes itself so much more seriously
― assorted curses (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 7 January 2011 21:22 (thirteen years ago) link
it really is just teenage boy skater/class clown shit filtered thru 'slim shady lp'
seriously
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Friday, 7 January 2011 21:23 (thirteen years ago) link
there's two diff things at play
1. do you think skater pranking shit like this is fun personally? this is debateable2. is there a sense of fun in odd future's music? i think this is not v debateable

Plus like with the "Earl" video... it's so obvious they DON'T drink that drug concoction (it would probably literally kill everyone who did) and half of their "bleeding" is obviously just for shits and giggles. The seizure, too, obvs fake.

1. do you think skater pranking shit like this is fun personally?
yeah i basically think this is the worst shit
this conversation has actually made me dislike odd future way more than i did based on the music!

well yeah duh but it's not funny

Well, I'm not saying it's necessarily funny, but there's a difference between "funny" and "fun."

im cool w/ people being defensive about odd future, its weird to me though when you guys try to make the case that its somehow 'superior' to 'other rap' -- like this weird strawman gangster rap that takes itself soooo seriously ... the biggest gangster rap hero on this board for the last few years has been gucci who doesnt take himself seriously whatsoever. and odd future dudes repeatedly claim inspiration from the gangster stuff that shakey would *r m d e* at i.e. waka.
i think the punk ethos by way of rapping makes sense as a defense but itt lex is being pretty reasonable about explaining why he doesnt like it. i feel similarly altho more 'i would have loved this when i was 16 ... but im not' than 'i never would have loved this'
its also weird to me that like ... "it's so obvious they DON'T drink that drug concoction (it would probably literally kill everyone who did) and half of their "bleeding" is obviously just for shits and giggles."
so whats so great about insincerity & irony exactly? they're tools used just as sincerity is used by lil boosie, it doesnt make one inherently better than the other like i feel that post is arguing

this is a weird statement to make considering this thread is gonna bear out that most of us actually like 'gangster rap' more than odd future this year

― assorted curses (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 7 January 2011 21:33 (thirteen years ago) link
also the beats i've heard from odd future aren't the sort that automatically push my pleasure buttons and override all of this (like jerk or three 6 mafia or WAKA) - they're the kind i actually need to be into the lyrics and aesthetic to appreciate
