isolation

surely not evolution

MF Doom influence
gratuitous drug abuse
depression/anxiety
being one of two actually talented members of OF (not counting Frank Ocean)
hype/backstory from being awol in samoa on rehab

who's the other? dom?

i count tyler because he's a good producer even if his actual rapping is hit/miss

genuinely charismatic, funny, bathos, funky sounds

'I don't like shit...' isn't as good as 'Doris' , it gets too near 'fuck u nigga' territory and the music doesn't have the fresh edge either, sort of ends weirdly , like it's half finished

but Doris is a fine record,

I'm a follower

solace one of my favourite "hiphop-ish" things of all time

What went right?
the free earl hype after this dropped youtube.com/watch?v=78_loMbmKJ8

Nothing, his music is boring as fuck.
I deadass can't even tell if he makes good music or not because I fall asleep whenever he starts rapping.
And people think J. Cole is bad.

Forgot to mention being extremely "Hip" at the right time.

Nothing, really. He fucking sucks.

He's better than Gucci Mane or Thug,

Gucci isn't good, but I'd listen to Gucci way before Earl fucking Sweatshirt.
At least Gucci has Lemonade. I can't name a single good Earl song or verse.
I could even name a good Tyler the Creator song, and Tyler is ass.

I went psychotic at 5am with some paint in my town to Doris, it was crazy man

wouldn't get that with Gucci

I go crazy with Slipknot, can still be objective about their musical quality.

are you trolling or do you want to name your favorite rapper so i can disassemble your invalid opinions?

i disagree, doris feels like an inbetween phase whereas "i dont like shit..." feels a bit more confident in what its trying to say

nothing

he's an awful rapper with bad lyricism, an average flow, crusty beats, and a shit personality to match

sick and tired of these niggas using thesauruses to make nonsensical rhymes as an attempt to appear "deep"

is it boring or do you have a weak attention span

id say its the latter

his rapping often crosses over into territory that is just blatantly child like ignorance waving the middle finger to his parents

its charming and fun sometimes but you cant continuously listen to some of his "hype" tracks without eventually questioning if maybe you are a little too old to be liking his bastard/punk adolescence

at his best he is a solid empowered fuck you that feels justified

Of course, my two favorite rappers are MF DOOM and Quasimoto.

Just trying to see an end and some steadier hands
Who you callin' your mans
Bet you thought he was solid
When he really just sand
Washing away with the water
I'm a land mammal
Staying away from the altar

in this verse he uses very plain english, nothing to claim as thesaurus worthy

its rather his creative symbolism that he paints with to cover issues of betrayal and faith throughout the album that best portrays his poeticism

>sick and tired of these niggas using thesauruses to make nonsensical rhymes as an attempt to appear "deep"
THIS

Fuck dictionary rap and anyone who listens to it. The definition of pretentious.
Fuck Earl. Fuck DOOM. Fuck Immortal Technique. Fuck Tech N9ne. Fuck Aesop Rock.

Excuse me, DOOM is actually cultured, unlike all others you mentioned.

MF DOOM is one of my favorite rappers too

i enjoy earl sweatshirt's creative association the gothic/nihilist viewpoint and his ability to conjure verses with odd rhyming schemes and alliteration

There's no subject matter. I don't give a fuck about how good you are at rhyming and how good your flow is if you're not saying anything.

Aesop Rock basically shreds your favorite rapper to pieces

who is it yachty?

like it or not, the roots of hip hop come from poetry and as a poet aesop rock is a literary savant, verbose or not

you dont like dictionaries because you cant read and your ADD doesnt allow you to actually listen and interpret what the rappers are actually saying

you have a peabrain

SWAG NIGGA BITCHES OOGA BOOGA

how is EARL THESAURUS RAP. LOL 99 percent of what he says should be in an average university educated person's lexicon. are you retarded?


I'm a problem to niggas
Pop artillery, the carbonates with him
Starving to hit 'em, spar with a nigga
Just watch, I'mma kill 'em all in a minute
It's the ticket-dodging aristocrat
New bitch, whip with the system slaps
Mister slide in and skimp the sack
Nigga hit the function with a pick and axe
My nigga, miss me with the bullshit
Right here, right ear got a Pesto blunt
Why that shit got a young nigga Velcro stuck
Why your bitch go down when the sess go up
Hard as armed services, y'all might have heard of him
Escobarbarian, best call the lawyers up
Bruh, the broad Aryan, know the squad loiterers
Not with the grain and these bitch niggas' wishes
Dealt with addiction, fell for the bitch with the
Pale butter skin who just packed up and dipped
In the land of the rent-less, stand with my chips
In a stack and a grin, fuck 'em
this verse is hotter than anything your favourite rapper has written and requires literally zero thesaurus use.

By candlelight my hand will write these rhymes 'til I'm burnt out
Mostly from experience, shit that I learned about
Topics and views, generally concerned about
With different ways to come up and earn clout
I take a look at my life and pace the trails
From Tablik and savage females with fake nails to face veils
You out your frame but still bagging 'em too
You know I know, these hoes be asking me if I'm you
Like my twin brother, we did everything together
From hundred raka'at salats to copping butter leathers
Remember when you went and got the dark blue Ballys
I had all the different color Cazals and Gazelles
The "SUBROC" three-finger ring with the ruby in the "O", ock
Truly the illest dynamic duo on the whole block
I keep a flick of you with the machete sword in your hand
Everything is going according to plan man

this is a verse about doom's deceased brother

pretty strong subject matter by anyone's means

also, regardless of the song, mf doom has many prevalent themes and above all, he is such a skilled poet he does not need concrete themes as he uses the art of creating scenarios and storytelling, which is truly lost amongst this generation of drugged of nigger rappers

your opinion is shit and you should be hung by the neck until death for posting your bullshit comment without having actually LISTENED to the music you claim to be debasing

LESSON TO NEWFAGS: this is a music board you fuckheads listen to the music before you share you opinion or ill molest you in front of everyone

Yachty is HOT garbage, fuck you for even insinuating I could like him.
And Aesop Rock being a "poet" doesn't mean I need to like him.
>the roots of hip hop come from poetry
Not really.

>I'm racist but I love hip-hop

...

why are you even responding to me I'm not the one that called him a thesaurus rapper

Thank God I don't take the average anonymous poster seriously because you sound like a stupid cunt.

>compains about thesaurus rap
>is actually retarded
makes sense I guess.

im not saying you need to like anyone bud

you dont have to like anything, then just kindly state that you do not prefer it, aesop rock's "float" is a hip hop classic and nothing short of it

have you listened to it?
no, so fuck off with your weak ass opinions

if you do not prefer prominent wordsmithing and heavy lyricism in your hip hop that is fine with me, but you should appreciate the art form for what it is

and yes really, rap is spoken word which is the topic in question since we are debating lyricism, if you would like to argue semantics hip hop is just a subgenre of techno and has nothing to lyricism

Spare a match for the most distorted orchid in the patch
Assorted orphans coursed in a morbid orbit torward the traps
I make a tentative promise to flash frequent
The most sacred abrasive based in allegiance to the makeshift mason's secrets

I rung a life's worth of saturated costume gear over hell's balcony
To nullify the drought and still the martyr farmers shout at me
And so the epic went and every cirrus hung
The bow breakers turned a cradle fatal, every spirit clung
Croon for the slick Icarus brain children busy splitting the givingtree
Building fresh canoes for freaks to cross the spill in

This is a horrible verse.

Why even post the first 8 lines? They have nothing to do with his brother.
Storytelling rap is garbage, and again,
>I'm racist but love rap music

>tfw like Aesop and Earl
Best of both worlds.

>i love rap but i hate storytelling
>im a nigger

>aesop rock's "float" is a hip hop classic
Sure.
>but you should appreciate the art form for what it is
I won't because it's dumb as fuck and pretentious.
If you think rap and poetry are interchangeable or should be, you're retarded.
>hip hop is just a subgenre of techno
Hip-hop is a culture.

Jesus man just kill yourself. I'm glad I don't know people like you in real life.

why is it a horrible verse user? what is a good verse?

>Pretentious = I'm too dumb to understand

Well, maybe it's not horrible, but I dislike the rhyme scheme and it feels aimless to me.
The bars don't interconnect for the most part.

I'm glad you don't know any black people either.

Incorrect.

Rap quite literally is a form of poetry you closed minded twat.

Young Thug is legit great, Gucci Mane is hype for being original for what he has started and the dumb shit he puts out is genuinely hype in the right setting. I've found Earl to be super boring because of his monotone voice which is obviously DOOM influenced and his flow as well, but he's nowhere near the level of clever or funny that DOOM can be which makes him interesting and one of my favourites. And you can't use low attention span as an insult because someone doesn't like what you like if the artist is trying to come out lazy, hazed and boring, which sure can be an appeal but it requires a strong lyrical play to work like DOOM's.

That's an opinion. Just because it's popular doesn't mean it's fact, kid.

so basically aesop rock is over your head because you are stupid?

we're not talking about the culture we're talking about music dumbass

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_hop_music

name your favorite rapper little cock

Explain how rap isn't poetry.

That must be it, it's the monotone voice. Same reason I despise Nas.
J. Cole only gets away with it because he has dynamic beats.

This can't be a serious post.

This isn't a valid retort.

>name your favorite rapper little cock

>first line is ambiguous, doesn't really mean anything i.e what needs ending, what are "steadier hands"
>typical "don't trust your friends cliche" expressed through child level metaphors which don't even make sense given that sand is a granular material
>doesn't care to elaborate on what "water" is
>random lack of cohesion by saying "land mammal" , unclear what point he's trying to make beyond a truism
>assumably some edgy shit about how he doesn't relate to organised religion or society

He doesn't "paint with" shit he's a fucking hack

He's quite obviously saying how people around him are disappearing, similar way of explaining it like most rappers.

both wrong
literally about marriage

evidently it's not "quite obvious" given that three people disagree on its meaning, and that he doesn't actually give a name to whatever it is he's talking about. Making a verse hard to understand does not make it intellectual

well it was shit

flying lotus taught him how to produce

>theme of betryal
>staying away from the altar
>altar
hmmm i wonder who he could be talking about????

Gorilla down your cavalry
Infantry, those who would bring harm to me
And power me in the tactics lack agility
Naturally steps ahead in this path
The millipede, disasterpieces scoped
Though my pen is on it's killing spree
Scheming on some rapid eye movement type
Philistine and ancient like
Turf box to hurt cops for buddha mics
Who consumes lives and spikes the why's
And sees pockets tied so discretely
We immediately accept the lies
Coming out our own traps
They murder from the flats to cul-de-sacs
So I fashioned a birthing sac out of burlap
Nestled within not one ounce of turn-back
Or contemporary doubt of which I've lost count
We bomb it all caps to dwarf you
Supergiants, black stars to pulsars and swarm through
New alliance, same cold wars
We still murking fools for less than the kicks that can bless
Then stretching desperately, measurements cease to carry these histories
Some encourage the seedless root to kill the future Rouvière
Malnourished they perish beneath the weight of my soliloquy
Chilling mean, like your average ice cream with an arctic heart
To rip the common auto plugged digits we call hard parts
Dismantling anger but save the schematics for reinstallation
Crippling in the nature of time could be standing solid so far
Dented sorrow nonetheless and useless data mashed status shifts for black heads
Invisible as rhythm split from tounges spilt with congress fuggums
Peace, salaam to some or the next native tounge
Perhaps not, correspondent to any dialect your memory detects
Aimed assassinations at the prefect
Conflict for the droves who lack the patience for intellect
Moshpits to those catching record vintage
Maxilla sets the relevance much unlike your record store or text messages
Embedded in a sedative season with nano-tech weaponry
Asphate especially, spitting red spectrum to blues melodies
And migrated through Hades to woo Persephone

>thesauruses
Just because you have a limited vocabulary it doesn't mean everybody else should speak or write like a kindergartner to make you feel comfortable.

come away from that man Earl

lol have you even heard the song, the bars flow hard
youtube.com/watch?v=N99PulN7xSY
you literally don't know what you're talking about

reminder that everything before I don't like shit was immature bullshit like anything by tyler

>I'm glad you don't know any black people either
>All black people like the same music GIT TURT UP CRUNK HOOD SHIT SKKR SKKRRR SKRR
Get the fuck out of here. You sound like one of those faggots who makes fun of a black kid for trying to speak English correctly.

not him but I think liking aesop rock type shit is fine as long as you don't be like "fuck young thug this is real hip hop"

Earl is relate-able

a lot of rap is covered in jewellery and plastic and enhanced women, bragging all the time

Earl plays GTAV, walks round the block

makes sense to the locked-in-an-apartment generation

Snoop reminds us he sold 80,000,000

I'm only going down the pub for a IPA

"I'm glad you sold 80mill, my favourite player hasn't got over 1,000 listens"

...and?

Anyone who does that shit is an idiot. The ones who do that are the ones who just discovered some of the more eloquent rappers and is surprised they aren't talking about slurping lean or popping xanys.
