The bass crunches instead of hitting, clips out, sounds like a lo-fi recording (Sunday School is a good example). The 160 bit rate doesn't help.
Probably shouldn't have said anything as to detract anyone from getting it, cos its seriously good.

i mean fair enough, they are kids. but the difference is that diggy cuts a check to jeremih for hooks while rich kidz write a bunch of em on their own, all of which are better than whatever ppl are getting from jeremih

i think that rich kidz tape has a couple of really great joints at the beginning but then it tails off, re-working lines from the great tracks into mediocre hooks: 'all i know is real it's in my d.n.a', 'my whole team ball...no nba'... groan

I wonder if its just general ignorance on the matter or a conscious decision, probably the latter more often than not. Like Clams Casinos whole thing about not knowing or caring about bit rates or w/e. I feel like plenty of producers can make good beats, but not nearly as many have the knowledge/skill/money(?) to craft them so they sound pristine as well.

haha the gunplay mixtape is mixed sooo poorly, it makes you wonder if they even try and play their own music loud in the car

otm. can't listen to dj holiday tapes in the car at all

good to hear about the Action Bronson. liked Dr Lecter and "Well Done" (w/ Statik Selectah) last year.
― Bo Jackson Overdrive, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:39 (twelve years ago) link
the action bronson is basically the only thing i've listened to for the past day and a half
― 3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:39 (twelve years ago) link
can't bring myself to listen to an action bronson album, everything about him is so corny
though i'm sure it's good or whatever
― Peace (peaceful) (The Brainwasher), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:42 (twelve years ago) link
ha i don't know
― 3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:43 (twelve years ago) link
i def get where you're coming from and i wasn't sold on the guy at all until very recently but i think this album is way too fun and hilarious to be corny
― 3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:44 (twelve years ago) link
Def a fun listen, he is a good look for the boom-bap scene. I kind of want to dislike him but just can't.
― Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:44 (twelve years ago) link
i wanted to like him but never really thought he'd transcend his very obvious influences but idk dude just murders it this entire album
― 3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:45 (twelve years ago) link
i dont understand how anyone could dislike action bronson
― ⚓ (gr8080), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:46 (twelve years ago) link
oh i could totally see it... for one he sounds exactly like ghostface killah

You sure it wasn't when he teamed up with RiffRaff that sold you?
― Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:47 (twelve years ago) link
i think there's a very fine line between having obvious talent as a writer and being a compelling, singular rap artist -- plenty of rappers from new york have grappled with this and failed

okay i wasn't going to say it BUT
"very recently" was coded language in that regard

bronson apparently has an album with harry fraud already in the can which has shot up pretty close to my most anticipated albums of 2012 list
Def that^
― Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:50 (twelve years ago) link
also i guess one w/ statik selektah too but that's prob where the ny boom bap thing becomes a bit too much for me
― 3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 04:51 (twelve years ago) link
the "sounds like ghostface" thing stopped mattering to me after like the 4th AB track i listened to

krit's getting better as a producer but he has turned into a deeply uninteresting rapper imo. i still like his voice a lot so he's best used at this point just dropping a hook or something a la "we buy gold", which is by far my favorite song connected with him this year. xps
― The Reverend, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 09:23 (twelve years ago) link
Agree with that. With the right mix of guests the album should still turn out pretty good
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 10:16 (twelve years ago) link
or he could just do a whole record with Ball and G
― Number None, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 10:18 (twelve years ago) link
the new wiz tape is cool... beats by cardo, lex luger, harry fraud, jake one and rob holladay (the guy who did love love vs hate love !) among others...

i think i just want to blame drake for the very earnest melodic direction a lot of swag rap has taken in the past year or two, it's a really unpleasant combination to me
