CHANCE THE RAPPER

damn chance's colbert performance tonight was really really fun

the new track is awesome too, really what i pictured his post-acid rap music could grow into

i mostly do not fuck w/ the social experiment album but this song is spectacular

how do i set my alarm clock so i can wake up to 'angels' every morning. pierre joy

new song is pretty cool, feel like there's a greater pop song buried in there somewhere but the r&b parts over that production is pretty undeniable. might prefer the live version actually but this + "angels" and even the slowed down "sunday candy" are all very very good

if they're indicative of where his new tape is gonna be it will be a tremendous record

uh

cool

so new Chance and James Blake albums tonight huh

really hope they're entirely separate entities

ha

i mean...they lived in the same house at one point, i really was worried circa 2014 that Chance's next album would be a Blake collab thing

oh this should be cool

sometimes i have to admit i get really annoyed by his voice, when it's right i love chance but when i don't want to hear him i REALLY don't want to hear him

i hated that sunday candy video sooooooo much but i can't really get w/ musicals in general though

aw man that's a great video

yea it's more my own thing w/ musicals, they are just too much for me, i feel embarassed for everyone involved including me as an audience member but i know people love them so i can easily see why people would like it

new song is pretty all right imo http://pitchfork.com/news/65439-chance-the-rapper-lil-wayne-and-2-chainz-release-new-song-no-problem-listen/?mbid=social_twitter

the wayne & 2 chainz verses feel more like a flex than logical additions to the song, which otherwise sounds pretty amazing

2 chainz verses always logical additions imo

idk who produced it but it kinda sounds like a kanye beat that exploded

xp otm

i already regret my earlier post. wayne sounds great... he's kinda doing a "let the beat build" thing

"half a milli in the safe another in the pillowcase / codeine got me moving slower than a caterpillar race" is some real good vintage wayne

Love this guy but wtf is w his features

Tape is fire so far

i thought the song with thug & lil yachty was kind of aggressively offputting but yeah

i didnt mind it, even dug yachty's verse altho he's clearly outclassed

its very optimistic music

up on datpiff now for all those anti apple music people (like me)

Hell yeah this is so good.

i could do without blessings and how great

I could not.

What I could do without is the muddy mixing, especially on the opening tracks.

omg "smoke break"

this is good imo

What I could do without is the muddy mixing, especially on the opening tracks.

i had just cranked it up when vocoder Kanye (?) comes in on the first track, and twice the volume of the rest of the mix.

for all the noise he's made about how free releases should be eligible for Grammys, you'd think he'd gotten have a better mixing & mastering pass on this.

also i never thought i'd hear Bieber over a Mount Kimbie sample.

there is so much jesus on this album that it made me feel physically nauseous by the end

like i'd never really connected w/chance on an emotional level and the amount of god-n-family stuff is p much why, and it's so overbearing here

lots of nice beats though but whatever i can't listen to this again

Godless Europeans smh

my firm view that christianity is a poison is informed 100% by too much, not too little, exposure to it

my firm view is that popular music as we know it literally does not exist without black church music

i'm sure you can trace the history of music further back than that, not that it's a relevant point to make

lol i'm as atheist as could but getting down on this for the gospel speak is laughable imo

could be*

why is it laughable to have a negative reaction to overbearing christianity?

I just don't see that it's overbearing. It's part of the esthetic sure.

Stare at the cue cards, take out the juke parts
Take out the God references, just leave the cool parts

i can assure you my antipathy to christianity is not because it's "uncool"

but you understand that the role of christianity is very different on chicago's south side & in its music than it may be for yourself
