listening to everything teenagers tell you in a transparent effort to appear down is not the wave

yeah, maybe, but i'm not into it, so i'm not too fussed.

sure, some teens will be into kitty pryde while others won't. that much is obvious enough. i meant that this strikes me as music made by and for teens, thus best evaluated by them, according to whatever weird teenage criteria they have bouncing around in their heads. when they group up, they'll re-evaluate it, and only then will we get any useful perspective on it.

of course grown-ups in the here and now will have and express opinions about it, too. we'll do this because we can't help ourselves, but grown-up opinion seems almost completely irrelevant. this music isn't for us, so the fact that many of us will hate it is no more interesting to me than the fact that a few will inevitably like it (though the former do seem a bit less creepy).

pellion's interview was the kendrick lamar 'control' verse of the rap internet this week

kitty has really fallen off since she stopped doing drugs or w/e that garbage blog post was a while back

I personally like MY rap music based on what gives hueg boners to the "I like Wu Tang and Gilt Group" paedo manchildren that are propping up the careers of white people who can't rap but look good doing it

sarahell you had a funny zing in here somewhere

She comes up with a lot of good lines. The sound of her voice goes well with the music. So what's the problem?

it sucks.

inert music plus a voice with zero charisma or range sleepwalking through a recitation of inanities

Seriously though, this is rockist and w/e but duck dunn and levon and mca passing kinda makes me realize how little time we all have on this planet and now that there is literally an infinite number of things you could pay attention to or think about, maybe the real fundamental battle of our time is trying to really focus and prioritize your attention....like I've never heard Brahms but I've posted several times in a thread about some semi clever 15yr old girl that raps on youtube

there are some serious greatest hits on here. i also liked jess' post about his grandfather.

the only thing i'm an expert on is knowing what i like, though i'm building strong skills in challops and appearing open-minded

This thread saved my life

haha i'm just getting to the part where mordy gets pissed off about a chris hansen joke from DJP

mordy is taking a bold stance against pop culture references & internet memes. as a board we should be grateful.

i can't believe that thread went so long before anyone made a chris hansen joke tbh

"The Kendrick Lamar of rap journalism"

whenever i find myself posting on one of these threads multiple times i have a vision of my grandfather in a muddy ditch, with water in his boots, being shot at by nazis, defending western civilization, and then wondering why he bothered.

^ underrated post

nazi tumblr rap would have been next level

harry turtledove probably has a book about it

this has turned out to be one of the most prescient posts in ilm history

sounds like a good title for a list thread

up there with jess predicting a danny brown association

and someone else calling the riff raff collab

it's like the script is already written

so fucking embarrassing

:/

i saw her perform recently......... it was not good. i felt kinda bad.

she was not good this summer, either.

i feel like you have to be pretty exceptional to have a good live rap set, especially with a laptop dj.. the ideas that go into tumblr cloud rap don't really mesh with the ideas that go into live performance

If "knowing how to rap" was a criterion for being a rapper in 2013, you might feel differently.

I agree! I count "knowing how to rap" as being "pretty exceptional"

serious q: what is the inescapable criterion for being a rapper in 2013
because with holograms, it's not even a pulse

a twitter account

that's kinda what i assumed her performances would be like anyway? centering your performing persona around half-hearted self-deprecation just seems like something that is easier to pull off on record than in front of a live audience.

i mean there seems to be a constant stream of 'lol im a dorky wite rapper sorry you paid to see me' types like MC Chris touring rock clubs across the country, she seems to have tapped into a cottage industry that's been depressing and modestly profitable for a long time
