i hate that line and don't think that song is very good
young thug explicitly remaking drake songs is... not the road he should travel

no way that line is delightful and hilarious

they had curtains
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:30 (nine years ago) link
curtains date back a long way, almost to the beginning

now that's a great song

Does the name "Young Thug" and "I Came From Nothing" both come from the first Jeezy album?

couple of years ago i was travelling around morocco with only ICFN2 on my phone to listen to. eating hash cakes on the beach in essaouira listening to 'haitian slang'. fucking weird, honestly

yeah i love blanguage. maybe in part just because it's one of the few CDQ tracks where you can really soak up his voice in high fidelity. the way the beat/flow switches going into the 'banana boat/cantaloupe' bit is just the greatest.
most of my favs mentioned but i've also been into

i've heard it on the radio so the big dog timmy is playing it at least

yeah it's a legit billboard hit in america
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 18:34 (nine years ago) link
also 'hookah' is song of the year
― out here like a flopson (tpp), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 18:37 (nine years ago) link
"Lifestyle" peaking just as summer weather finally arrives just feels so right. Great driving song.
― Evan R, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 18:40 (nine years ago) link
yeah "Treasure" is top 5 Thugger imo. A couple more of my favorites lately

OMG is nuts.
― voodoo chili, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:31 (nine years ago) link
OMG is kinda like a weaker 'fight night' right?
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:33 (nine years ago) link
"OMG" is the one song where i think he sounds too much like a spongebob character
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:35 (nine years ago) link
i think we should talk about what makes his music bad when it's bad, bc while we are largely fans the polarized online argument of 'the only rapper worth hearing' vs. 'destroying the culture' is wholly ruining the enjoyment of young thug for me
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:37 (nine years ago) link
on the contrary i feel like a lot of the "destroying the culture" arguments lobbed at young thug are as homophobic as any rapper since..... kanye? that makes me like young thug a lot more
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 20:49 (nine years ago) link
i almost feel like the stylistic war regarding young thug-type rappers has been ceded by the conservatives and that it's actually more acceptable to argue against young thug (or lil b) on subtextually homophobic grounds

there are plenty of people who just think he sucks as a rapper w/out needing a homophobic subtext

these people are idiots but young thug is also not the only good rapper alive
Thugga's perceived "gayness" is all about style though.

"Fight Night" is kind of gross and unfun to me :(
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 21:14 (nine years ago) link
the "fight night" verses are incredible but there's def something tone deaf about the song i.e. the single cover is boxing gloves with lipstick marks on them smfh

yeah man, its so much better now tho maybe i will repost once there are no more cool suggestions
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 21:52 (nine years ago) link
also i deleted some of the songs
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 21:53 (nine years ago) link
tried to only keep ones that sounded like "young thug songs" instead of just "songs with young thug"
yahhh, thanks lagoon
― The Reverend, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 22:32 (nine years ago) link
least i cld do
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 22:33 (nine years ago) link
yes thanks! load up round 2
Also 'fight night' sounds like 'blow the whistle' to me. Same bass anyway, similar tempo.

I'll agree on the line, it's gross, but that song is such an improvement on "The Language" which is so damn drab & I have no idea why people think it's a highlight
then again I only give a shit about "Hold On" off that album so yeah
