TOKYO DRIFT THRU THE HILLS
Line of the year imo

Having heard the singles, but not the album, I'm getting the sense that Slim Jimmy is more or less the Phife to Swae Lee's Q-Tip. Is that accurate?
― JRN, Sunday, 11 January 2015 01:54 (nine years ago) link
It's closer to a 50/50 split than in Tribe, but I think it's a fair analogy if you take the most generous read of it, which is to say the Slim Jimmy is an essential player. He lands a ton of great moments; Swae Lee probably lands just a handful more
― Evan R, Sunday, 11 January 2015 02:49 (nine years ago) link
Lately I've started thinking of this more as kind of like a Beastie Boys album, in that it makes me wish I still skateboarded. And I think a lot of that punk energy comes from Slim Jimmy

swae lee is gonna have a solo career very soon
― J0rdan S., Sunday, 11 January 2015 03:28 (nine years ago) link

"Unlock the Swag" is so amazing

The mix of "No Flex Zone" on the album sounds completely puny compared to the one I've been bumping for months? :(
― The Reverend, Sunday, 11 January 2015 10:02 (nine years ago) link
"Throw Sum Mo" does have a bit of a Weird Science vibe to it, it's true
― The Reverend, Sunday, 11 January 2015 10:21 (nine years ago) link
it's the same mix of "no flex zone" as far as i can tell?
i wish there was an official version with all RS verses and nicki's verse, nice that her remix was made official but no one needs to hear pusha t on it
― lex pretend, Sunday, 11 January 2015 12:15 (nine years ago) link
the mp3 I've had starts completely differently, and the levels and even some of the synth textures are quite noticeably different
― The Reverend, Sunday, 11 January 2015 12:50 (nine years ago) link

well, the official nicki/pusha remix has new RS verses: https://soundcloud.com/raesremmurd/rae-sremmurd-no-flex-zone-remix-featuring-nicki-minaj-pusha-t-prod-by-mike-will-made-it
and there's definitely a version that just tacks the nicki verse onto the original with RS's verses intact, because i've heard it on the radio a lot.

― deej loaf (D-40), Monday, 12 January 2015 17:08 (nine years ago) link

i feel like rae sremm are more akin to the jerk kids than odd future in terms of personality type, and much the better for it
― lex pretend, Monday, 12 January 2015 17:39 (nine years ago) link
yeah theyre not like exactly the same they just share an extreme unchill preening that todays pop music critical framework is incapable of engaging with
― lag∞n, Monday, 12 January 2015 17:44 (nine years ago) link
And the odd future comparison thing happened because... they're young?
