Migos, "T-Shirt"

maybe they were just primed for beef w budden

akademiks was the one being a dick

akademiks and budden: rapper provokers is a p funny idea for a show

they are both extremely awful with bad opinions

budden looks more annoyed with akademiks praising them than migos, doesn't he?

agree it's weird

sorry, but which migo is the one on the left who stands up and calmly starts adjust his sleeve because that migo is smooth

Offset iirc

budden comes across ok sometimes

With 235 million YouTube views and 240 million Spotify plays as of January 2018, the popular hit "T-Shirt" by Migos has now attained more online spins than the entire catalog of San Francisco rapper Kreayshawn.

lmao

mama told youuuuuuuuu

Notable that 32 people were wrong though: was not a hit, did not go top 10.

it has "hit" right there in its wikipedia entry though

Damn forks continuing to be a complete moron

I am curious why millions of people did not stream Gucci Gucci (released: 2011) on the Apple Music app (created: 2015) the way they did “t shirt” (released: 2017)

So weird how she didn’t chart on Billboard, which started counting streams to chart position in 2013... I wonder why!!

why are we concentrating on why that quote is wrong and not the inherent wrongness and hilarity of "more streams than Kreayshawn" being a wiki-worthy thing

I smell an ilxor in the wiki

yeah that is 100% deej bait

“T shirt” and “mask off” charting over magnolia on pazz and jop is further evidence for the prosecution imo

Why are we concentrating on a trolling wiki edit when

according to the rules as outlined by Whiney... deej otm.

It was a hit by the only metric that counts: everybody in the club sings along with it whenever you play it out.

It also ranked #52 on Billboard’s songs of 2017 chart, two notches below mi gente, fwiw.

truly deej has found his truth
but will he ever find a t-shirt? time will tell.

I think "minor hit" is the end result and, sadly, I don't think this is enough evidence to dunk on deej

i don't think you've seen the wiki yet whiney.

also, love this three-way P+J tie, it means.... something....

27 (tie). Black Thought, #Freestyle087. , 12

Migos, “T-Shirt”, Quality Control/300/Atlantic, 12

Kamasi Washington, “Truth”, Young Turks, 12

who did the wiki edit? come clean, too funny

So Culture II is 105 minutes long...

not long enough

oh shit, it's out! And it's mahoosive

wow new album already ? I had no idea !
that might deserve a new thread, no ?

deej in fairness you did say this

when "t-shirt" crosses the 57 million youtube view rubicon i will consider myself defeated

New album is very long, yes, but also surprisingly good in a low key way.

"surprisingly" ?

who on earth wants 105 minutes from these dudes?! give us your best 40 and call it good.

Surprisingly as in - I wasn’t blown away by Supastars, the vibe is pretty samey all the way through, but I found myself loving it nonetheless.

ah ok. I will give it a try later on today but I really like "stir fry" so far.

Bit daunted by a double-length. I really loved Culture but rarely listened all the way through. That said, Culture II so far is really really catchy and immediate so maybe?

It’s a vibe.

lmao holy shit at the length. I assume they'll trim it down for a physical release (if they bother with one).

I like the panache of releasing such a mammoth !
that said, it's only the equivalent of a double CD album.

There's way too many songs on it produced by Quavo, lol. But in hindsight, it seems like the inevitable bloated follow-up to a lean masterpiece, and then it might as well be as bloated as can be. Enough good stuff on it to be worthwhile, but it's no Without Warning.

Culture is "lean" only by comparison lol, it's an hour long!

can't get into this one today . gonna give it another try over the weekend

wow "stir fry" is horrible

a trend I really don't like is artists overloading their albums to goose streaming numbers. More tracks = more streams = better chart position, but worse listening experience

I mean, I guess they realize that people are just gonna cherrypick the tracks they like, so why not improve your chances at a surprise hit by releasing everything you've ever recorded

heard a rumour that nobody forces you to listen to it all in one go

Are they really saying "G.I. Jew" on "Autopilot"?

I remember that one from being a kid in Florida in the Eighties iirc
