I still think the person who benefited most from the rise of Odd Future was Nardwuar.

y'all are shortchanging the whole crew. Earl has made 2 excellent albums, Tyler has been up and down but at least is interesting, Syd/Internet's made a couple excellent albums, Frank is obviously on his own journey, but 'nostalgia, ultra' is a classic and 'channel orange' is good, and the rest of these dudes do their thing. 4 big-time, relevant artists out of a crew of 8-10 is pretty good. never mind both the short- and long-term impact they had in terms of the industry, the internet, youth culture, etc. they altered things forever!

i'm not even a huge fan, but given what they were when they started and where they're at now, the story of OF is one of major success and influence.

I can agree that they were successful and influential and still believe, as the article itself notes, that the actual music was never consistently impressive

our culture is in a post-music place now, and they had something to do with it. I don't like the outcome, but I can't deny that that's what happened either.

Doris is possibly my favorite album of the 2010s so far.

The logical conclusion of the original Odd Future trajectory. (Thankfully Tyler's actual solo output has turned out to be much more interesting than I'd have anticipated.)

Of course. Given Tyler's admiration for Pharell and the Neptunes it was only natural that he would eventually go the same direction as Pharell would.

a few months ago I was just drifting around my digital archive via sonos and ended up listening to, and enjoying an ep by 'hodgy beats'.
I had no idea as who/where/what I was listening to and sonos gives no indication as to the directory in which the files are located.
came as a shock when i came to realise the source.
basically many years ago i had 'found' a folder on mk1s laptop of odd future related releases and nicked them off him, and had completely forgotten about them.
