Quantum of Phallus posted:Also the verse on All your Fault on dark sky paradise where big Sean and Kanye switch every second line is very cool and how Watch the Throne should have worked. Yeah. plus he and Pusha T did that on New God Flow which is easily my favorite song on Cruel Summer

Dexo posted:That's the old version Dude sure picks some different choices to work with. Allan Kingdom appearing was sure unexpected (I believe he's one of the dudes in thestand4rd with spooky black, had a decent album last year or so). Also Kanye working with grime cats could def be interesting. I've never been shy about my thoughts that Kanye is the best but it's impressive how dude's career has developed. Really excited for the album.

Allan Kingdom went from rapping with Spooky Black to Kanye in like two months. I'm curious as to which artists were on stage. More Allan Kingdom though: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4WwcJUhkXs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbW1_ZdWon4 im gay fucked around with this message at 14:59 on Feb 26, 2015 |

Peewee Longway's Blue M&M2 review: it's pretty good. The highs aren't as high as on the first one. Nothing really touching Juice, Switcharoo, or Energy Kit (the second best mother-appreciation song after Tupac's Dear Mama. Hey Mama is good but c'mon). But it does have some really good standouts. Longway - the first song, Rich Homie Quan was put on this earth to bless choruses. Purpose is really good. Good Crack is awesome, great chorus good beat and Yo Gotti is fine but an afterthought like everything he's ever done p much. Deja Vu is good too. Songs with Thug are good too obv. My unbiased score: 10/10 __________________/ ![]()

Excuse, yes, but to be fair it's pretty rare for an artist (much less group of artists) to make good music that is consistently improving for 15 years straight... I can't really think of anyone like that but there are probably a couple of examples

temple posted:That's an excuse. Why not be better? Different? Evolved? Why sounds the same but worse after 15 years? Do artists have an expiration date? They weren't that good to start with. The reason people talk about El-P's production is because they realized they carried it. Vordul and Vast Aire were decent on Can Ox, but it wouldn't have been remembered 1/100th as much without the production setting everything up. Have you listened to any of their solo projects? Vast Aire was at best a slightly-above average punchline rapper, and Vordul's solo poo poo straight sucked. And to your larger point, it's extremely rare for artists in any genre to consistently release good music, or innovate or evolve at all. That's why most of the ones you do hear about are exceptional.

Well yeah, i love Kanye, he's a once in a lifetime type of artist and rightfully an icon now but some of his albums just arent that great. My argument was simply that there really arent any artists across all genres - not just rap - with a sustained career that is always on the up.

Only group I can think of that was always on the up is the death metal band Bolt Thrower. Other than them everyone ends up loving something up.

temple posted:You are denying the lyricism on Cold Vein. They're great on there, but it's the production that makes the album. The production on there makes a lot of punchlines that would veer towards corny sound clever/deep, and gives weight to a lot of the more generic street/braggadocio stuff they're doing. Like "Pigeons" is one of my fav rap songs ever and a lot of it is due to Vordul/Vast but that was an anomaly. Like I said, if they're so amazing at rapping, how come literally nothing else they did was anywhere near as good (coincidentally, that was the only project they got El-P production). It's why I didn't have any hopes whatsoever for the new album. It's not even like it's someone like Lif or Aceyalone or whoever is coming back-Can Ox wasn't nearly as good without El-P. Cobra Commander posted:Only group I can think of that was always on the up is the death metal band Bolt Thrower. Other than them everyone ends up loving something up. I'd say David Bowie never had a bad album if you somehow were able to eliminate everything from the 80's. alansmithee fucked around with this message at 02:31 on Feb 27, 2015 |

Bolt Thrower didn't consistently improve. They were always pretty much the same. It's cool that they refuse to make another album unless they think it will top their last, though. First band to fit this criteria off the top of my head is At the Drive-In. Nobody with more than a decade of longevity could pull that off though.

40 lbs to freedom posted:808s is literally an embarrassment but even if it didnt exist you would still be wrong 808s is the most influential hiphop rnb album in the past 10 years edit: And it isn't about subjective 'good'. The Shabazz palaces guy is an example of someone that has changed and grown. I don't care for it but he's not doing a piss weak imitation of digable planets. temple fucked around with this message at 03:42 on Feb 27, 2015 |
