rolling regional thug thread 2012

& i like that one lmfao song, but it just doesnt belong here

oh Money 2 Blow yeah that was good

azealia belongs in a rap thread just like brianna and reema major and nicki minaj and kid sister do

Action Bronson track is a party.

action bronson (almost abbreviated as AB before realizing potential confusion with azaleia banks) is a total ghostface copy but he's really good at it so who cares

I care

I just picture Ghostface sayin "that guy's eatin my lunch!" a la Mike Love

yeah, when he's over generic boom bap its pretty corny, i think as long as his production & execution sounds like they don't give a fuck about "new york rap tradition" & fake premo /rza beats, he'll be tolerable at worst

also since the original poster doesn't wanna change the thread title, I'm leaving as is

with this logic we'd have spent all of 2010 reading the rolling euroswag thread--just change it bro

kinda dope at best

wtf is wrong with youtube?

the last time nicki minaj belonged itt was when she was with mizay imo
im really not trying to thread police this too hard, but seriously, azealia sounds a lot closer to lmfao than actual rap music. she already said she doesn't even consider herself a rapper iirc?

also this isn't really related to whether she belongs in this thread, but good lord does she come across as an entitled snob
http://www.pitchfork.com/news/45003-azealia-banks-slams-kreayshawn-and-xl-recordings-confirmed-to-play-coachella/

like she was just waiting for an excuse to diss kreay

and that story abt XL is like the definitive example of how sometimes telling your side of the story just makes ppl wonder about the other side

fyi deej there's another thread on top of sna where theyre discussing azealia banks

that story = yikes

otoh West Bumblefrickin Nowhere

good point. lets never mention her here again

http://www.thefader.com/2012/01/05/mack-maine-f-lil-wayne-fortune-teller-mp3/

btw this is a random mack maine track from like '07 that just got released for the first time, kinda wacky lil wayne chorus, i like it

talking shit about xl!! <3 <3

i feel like i don't even want to get sucked into a deejbate but why would new nicki minaj material not belong in a rap thread

i can't remember the last time i witnessed such ott ridic thread policing here!

that action bronson track knocks

deej can you just consent to the thread title change please? we have to look at this all year

Kind of weird how French Montana went from Max B's lackey and feuding with Jim Jones to being the hottest New York rapper, but I'm not complaining.

oh no you have to see the word youtube!

its not 'euroswag,' it actually makes sense, until someone makes a cogent argument against it why wd we change it?

can we never let deej start this thread again. "my title only! my choice of artists only!"

forks stop being an asshole and change the thread title

i don't really see the need to post about banks in here... just seems like she's already outgrown this thread. like if posters like tracer hand are arguing about her

i can't listen to action bronson -- the guy is pretty talented and a good rapper but he sounds so, so much like ghostface that i can't really listen to more than two tracks in a row

oh doubtless i'd naturally post in her own thread and nicki's own thread for their material, it's just deej getting all THERE'S NO PLACE FOR THEM HERE as though they aren't even proper rappers is total #rmde

its not 'euroswag,' it actually makes sense, until someone makes a cogent argument against it why wd we change it?

you mean why would YOU change it. WE already want to change it

it's a redundant word and breaks with tradition. 'rolling regional thug thread' or even 'rolling regional thug thread 2012' is much more concise and just looks better.

you guys are being really obnoxious

i don't like the year in the title.

but otherwise i dont care. and can live with it. also anyone who raps shld be allowed on the thread, even if we mock them after. deej the thread policeman is nagl.

suck a dick this thread is all about policing content. azealia banks is wack bullshit, stop talking about it in here

listen to the song we posted. it's not what you think

yeah, i think it's okay to police in here

i'm at work right now

i also think it's okay for the majority to rule on a thread title change

i think its ok to stop bitching about it & maybe i'd consider it if u had more of a reason than it apparently hurting you to read the word youtube

i feel like 'youtube' is an important factor in the regional thug mythos personally; it's the only delivery system for regional thugs

ayo I heard this was the place where we could talk about azealia banks, pumped for this, can somebody direct me to some of her music? thx

"like if posters like tracer hand are arguing about her"

Azaelia's great, suck a dick if you disagree. she totally belongs in here. comparing her to LMFAO is hella tone deaf.

I will cop to needing a late pass for Action Bronson and deej, you're right that this is where we intersect. I found him only a few days ago when dallas penn was pushing him hard to me. Pretty dope. It's totally tony starks derivative but ghost is getting older and sounding a little different these days and young dude has a full head of steam. i gotta spend more time with this cat.

if you guys all hate the thread title so much, make a new thread and take the rap discussion there. this is a silly argument.

i love how i'm like the equivalent of the new york times writing an article about grunge

i feel like 'youtube' is an important factor in the regional thug mythos personally

while this may be true, it's kind of disappointing that a guy with very deep grounding in rap can't hear that the rhythm of "rolling regional thug thread" is A+ good and "rolling regional thug youtube thread" is clunky as fukk

action bronson sounding like ghostface is a big problem only if he uses ghostface like or generic boom bap beats, which is def no an issue w/ the track i just posted.

i don't agree that azealia banks is closer to rap than to lmfao -- they are both doing dance music w/ corny party rapping, one is trendy, the other is popular, but they're much closer than azelia and trina or we/

oh fine change it, but you're all a bunch of whiney babies

i'm pretty sure that when it's 99% vs 1% in any sort of debate, it's the dude in the 1% that's the whiny baby

y'all r really arguing about the "rhythm" of thread titles now?

http://i39.tinypic.com/mb47zn.gif

genuinely surprised you think azealia's skills don't go further than party or novelty status

then again she's no tyga

i'm pretty sure that when it's 99% vs 1% in any sort of debate, it's the dude in the 1% that's the whiny baby
