Looks like I'll be keeping that five as we wait for Wayne to drop his V on us. Stay tuned this time next year for another release date. Though I must say the intrigue had me salivating so I put the Carter 2 on as an appetizer. That poo poo still bang. Screaming Free The Carter V till the death of me. The greatest mystery of the 21st century: whatever happened to The Carter V? There will be entire television shows dedicated to the mystery of rap's Holy Grail. Every now and then, men will return from the treacherous depths of the tundra clutching what they believe to be Tunechi's final gift only to be crucified by the acolytes of Wayne who know that this tape shall never be heard by the unworthy. We are all unworthy. AllNewJonasSalk fucked around with this message at 05:42 on Sep 21, 2018 |

I just listened to The Carter V and watched the Piss Tape. They were both instant classics.

Production on the new Brockhampton is crazy but I feel like it's doing most of the work here, the songwriting/verses don't feel as tight or memorable as Saturation and I don't know if they're really figured out the post-Ameer dynamic yet Only 1/3rd of the way through this Lupe album but it's super good, if the rest of the album is this good this might end up being his best to date

Lupe new AOTY for me. It's excellent. Brockhampton again great production but they've far too many MCs that don't add anything to the mix. Weight is the best song on it, the production is amazing. Gonna listen to the new Father next.

the Lupe album is incredible, god drat. reminds me a lot of KRIT's last album where it's insanely long but somehow manages to justify its length because he really has that much to say. Shockingly consistent for the length too, in terms of beats, hooks, bars, concepts, etc. It feels like Lupe was waiting years to get off of Atlantic so he could drop an album like this

I never bothered to figure out who everyone in Brockhampton was so I don’t think I’ll notice Ameer’s absence

He rapped with literally the same flow on every song in Saturation always.

New Father is good. Only song that doesn’t jive with me on first listen is “Wine.” Production is solid throughout, if a bit samey in some cases. He managed to get a decent/passable Slug Christ verse and there are only 3 guests on the whole thing. Overall, I’d say it’s his best/most cohesive project yet. I’m happy.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:So it's a lot better than Culture II and Scorpion and SR3MM and other long rap albums like that? There is really no comparison between this album and the ones you mentioned. This is a complete project with no filler whatsoever. It feels shorter than 98 minutes imo and never feels like a slog.

edit: yeah ^^ they're just not comparable at allRageaholic Monkey posted:So it's a lot better than Culture II and Scorpion and SR3MM and other long rap albums like that? Lupe is a dope lyricist and has enough to say to fill 98 minutes easily. Tetsuo&Youth is one of the best albums of all time IMHO Not to get all "REAL hip-hop", cause I gently caress with meaningless poo poo heavy, but i.e. Migos+RaeSrem have enough trouble filling a song with substance, not to mention a long rear end album.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:So it's a lot better than Culture II and Scorpion and SR3MM and other long rap albums like that? I'd start with the leaked Food & Liquor. For some reason I downloaded it whenever it came out after local radio station played the entire album on the air - so it's the only version I know and it's much better then the retail release.

I think for whatever reason I used to confuse Lupe Fiasco and Kid Cudi. Didn't they rise to prominence around the same time in the mid to late 00s? Or am I making that up and I've been confusing them for no real reason

Also, Lupe is a top 10 MC and Cudi... is not.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:So it's a lot better than Culture II and Scorpion and SR3MM and other long rap albums like that? Yes, if you want to know Lupe, listen to Fahrenheit 1/15 2 and the enemy of the state mixtape. For Albums the Cool is probably the best place to start, food and liquor is great too, T&Y is good. I gently caress with Lasers as the lyricism is still good(seriously go back and focus on the poo poo he's saying) , but he was forced to go all over poppy as gently caress beats. Food and Liquor 2 was fine, a bit of a let down and probably Lupe at his most preachyness but better than Lasers Drogas Light is filled with his takes on the current(as of 2016 or whenever it came out) hip hop sound to varying degrees of success,(Dopamine Lit, Made in USA. Jump, city of the year and Tranquillo are fire, everything else is ehhhh) But to get Lupe in one song would probably be SLR one of my favorite rap songs ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaDZyO-w9pQ Or this loving tour de force from Tetsuo and Youth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkHrPyoEtSI

I'll have to give it more time later but honestly Lupe's album kinda disappointing. I was afraid when I saw all the features but dude seriously has some of the worst hooks in history. All the generic r&b singing lady hooks make everything sound cheap and dated. Which sucks because the songs around those lameass hooks and intros are generally really good to great. Like I just start getting lasers flashbacks on some of the songs and that is not a good thing. Again, it's not a bad album, and in many ways is really good. And maybe it'll grow on me a bit but initial impressions are that it's a step back from Tetsuo & Youth.
