I totally do not mean to start beef & besides I barely listen to any new rap ever anyway but I thought I'd check this dude out and...deej? you rep for this guy's rapping? really? like I have argued with you abt shit but generally speaking I think of you as a guy with some pretty high standards for rapping and like
man I do not get what you would see in this dude's rapping. like at all, if you are into good rapping.

here's a rhetorical question to ponder: how come there has been no articles this week talking about the relationship between sandy hook elementary school & the new album by the rapper T.I., who once tried to illegally purchase an artillery of machine guns? hmmmmm i wonder

If I didn't know better I'd have taken ""Hate Bein' Sober," the upcoming mega-single" as a shout-out to some dude.

"hate bein' sober" is meant to be on the level of "stuntin' like my daddy" and "in da club"? LOL

feel like you and i have very different definitions of "pop rap" when you talk about this album
― 2 Celloz (some dude), Thursday, 20 December 2012 19:17 (eleven years ago) link
"you know, pop rap! MC Hammer, The Black Eyed Peas, Crime Mob"
― 2 Celloz (some dude), Thursday, 20 December 2012 19:23 (eleven years ago) link
even "in da club" style pop rap!

― 2 Celloz (some dude), Thursday, December 20, 2012 2:23 PM (1 minute ago) Bookmark
well i think that's a very narrow definition (i would call black eyed peas "pop") & finally rich is waayyy more pop than crime mob. i didn't call 'back from the dead' pop when i first reviewed it cuz it's not... this album is diff tho
― salute me or crut me (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 20 December 2012 19:26 (eleven years ago) link
how is any song on this record more pop than "knuck if you buck" aside from featuring actual pop rappers like wiz khalifa and 50 cent
― 2 Celloz (some dude), Thursday, 20 December 2012 19:36 (eleven years ago) link
i was only really lukewarm to 'lollipop' when it came out then over the next few years it got promoted to personal jam status and now it seems like a landmark record rilly. dope review j0rdz. this record is dripping in pop, why fight it. 'kay kay' is my fucking shit.

peep the comments though:

I agree with half this shit, but Chief Keef is bad. it's that simple. good for him becoming rich. no problem with that. but to keep claiming all of these critics are racist is your lousy back up. They aren't racist. Chief Keef is not innovative, and apparently not very intelligent. He networked and got a good promotions team. Saying he's great is like saying every modern hip hop collective (A$AP, OF, etc..) are good. Just because there is a team that knows how to manipulate its audience doesn't mean the artist is talented.

in fairness this is so generally true of pop crit right now across all genres big & small that it's kind of interesting how this album seems to be coming under special scrutiny about it

yeah, the more there's a cultural narrative around an album and the higher the "stakes" feel to people, the easier it is to focus on anything but what it actually sounds like
― 2 Celloz (some dude), Friday, 21 December 2012 12:44 (eleven years ago) link
which artists tend also to play to their advantage imo

i don't think people who love this record are lying to themselves, i just think they have a high tolerance for monotone offbeat rapping

i wouldn't say monotone, what stands out to me is that half the time keef is most of the way to singing, but it's always the same three note melody.
