Lemona... oh shit you're right

It literally deserves all the praise it gets. Are you deaf?

Try me, fucker.

>LITERALLY

Non argument

it's only praised for non musical aspects like lyrics and his death connected with the lyrics

>it's only praised for non musical aspects like lyrics
Lyrics are half of a song. it's very important
>his death
Oh you mean the concept of the album is not important when discussing it?

the lyrics are not really important since it's literally not music
the concept is cool, but it's also not music

my beautiful dark twisted fantasy, channel orange, good kid mad city, anything by death grips, run the jewels 1/2.

literally any album considered "Sup Forumscore" from this decade, DG especially

>the music
Not relevant. See Lyrics are half of songs. That would explain why you think it's over-rated: because you are not properly listening/judging the art in the first place

Is hating this album a meme now?

>it's literally not music
oh boy it's a big one

i gotta go with this desu... this album was mediocre at best

>Lyrics are half of songs
wrong
a song can exist without lyrics even if it has vocals, you can even make a concept album without lyrics

>you are not properly listening/judging the art in the first place
i liked some lines, but even lyrically overall this album is not something that deserves to be praised this much

he's right though retard, do you think a retarded wizard in the forest scraping chimney is music too? define music you fucking faggot

>implying text is music
>not vocals that perform this text

sure you're smart

>a retarded wizard in the forest scraping chimney
Literally the best release of 2016, kill yourself if you haven't heard it. Also music is just like anything. It's pre much undefinable at this stage.

ikr fucking retards would literally believe retarded wizard in the woods scraping chimney is music too!

hey these are all the best albums take that back!

>a song can exist without lyrics
merriam-webster.com/dictionary/song
>a : a short musical composition of words and musicb : a collection of such compositions
>a : a melody for a lyric poem or balladb : a poem easily set to music
It is the literal definition. If it had no lyrics, it wouldn't be a song, it woudl be instrumental music.

You clearly haven't copyrighted any of your own songs before, have you?
>i liked...
Not relevant

>he hasn't heard retarded wizard in the woods scraping chimney yet
>still considers himself a fan of music
keeek

>do you think a retarded wizard in the forest scraping chimney is music too?
Why wouldn't it be? Do you think modern art isn't really art?

You should cease discussing music immediately

shut the fuck up you dolt you probably think retarded wizard in the woods scraping chimney is music!!!

because there is no implication that the artist considers it to be music retard, if you know anything you would know what defines "art" is the intention of whoever creates it, dipshit

Why wouldn't it be?

this definition is not relevant, you can perform gibberish, and put it on your album, and it's still song, it's still music
lyrics are literally not important to make music with your vocals

>if you know anything you would know what defines "art" is the intention of whoever creates it
Literally not true, that's only one of several ways to look at a piece of art

^read this shit for brains

>because there is no implication that the artist considers it to be music retard
Nice backpedaling
>The meaning of words is not relevant but lets discuss them anyways
You are smart!
>and it's still song, it's still music
50% music.
>lyrics are literally not important to make music with your vocals
But f the artist intended them to be there, who are you to ignore that?
Backpedaling

so in other words if someone coughs you consider them a musician? you DUMB retard

how is it backpedaling you dip? I was explaining why without any prior knowledge of an artist's intention you cannot call something "Art"

It's just shit music

you still would consider them to be a musician, though? sure any sound CAN be music that doesn't mean it IS music until you know the intention of whoever created it. I wouldn't call them a "shit musician" for coughing until they release it as an album kiddo

>artist intended
>artist intention.

Ho boy. Let's just clear this up right now. The value of art depends on the values of the art critic. Most art is born as imitation, not innovation. The critic, not the artist, is the one who defines innovation and rates it, and because of this the artist is merely a vehicle for the aesthetic/ideology of the critic.

The critic is the real artist. To argue "artist intent" is pointless because the "artist" is irrelevant.

>how is it backpedaling you dip?
Because that wasn't initially a part of the scenario. The man's intentions were not specified.

Because it's equally as possible he intended it as music.

>The meaning of words is not relevant but lets discuss them anyways
>implying that's what i said
you're smarter than me that's for sure
the meaning of lyrics is literally not music, blackstar is praised for the meaning, not for the compositions of the songs, which are nothing new even in david bowie's discography (except for the complex title track, but this shtick was used even by beyonce)

>50% music.
there're usually lots of other thing in music, even on that album there are lots of instrument
That would explain why you think it deserves all the praise it gets: because you are not properly listening/judging the music as an art form in the first place

>But f the artist intended them to be there, who are you to ignore that?
there's nothing wrong with discussing lyrics, but praising music for not a musical aspect is not good

if you think that there is a 50% possibility that a retarded kid is trying to make music when he scrapes a chimney I think we know who the real retard is here

But Bowie did release an album and his lyrics are part of that album. His intention was certainly to create music.

Also with the cough thing, I would certainly consider something music if it was only performed but never released as an album. If we accept that the audience has a say in what is and isn't art, then it's the audiences right to decide what is and isn't a performance too. Hey ho, someone coughing in the street is producing sweet sweet music for you, free of charge.

in the wise words of fat albert "hey, hey, hey, you're gay" fuck off with this crikey shit thing head. I know you have a spiff for retarded wizards scraping chimneys of whatever bullshit you wank to well I don't (and neither does majority of residents on christmas island, a-hole!) so fuck off and shit a brick

>you're smarter than me that's for sure
ikr
>the meaning of lyrics is literally not music
But that irrelevant since the album Blackstar consists of SONGS, which is 50% music, 50% lyrics. if you choose to pretend the lyrics aren't there, or just listen to the music, you are missing half of the art
>there're usually lots of other thing in music
That's nice
>That would explain why you think it deserves all the praise it gets: because you are not properly listening/judging the music as an art form in the first place
No I am also judging the high quality musicianship and production and arrangement and performance. What's the reason you ignored all of this?
>there's nothing wrong with discussing lyrics, but praising music for not a musical aspect is not good
We are praising the songs, which includes both music and lyrics.
Yes, mathematically speaking it is 50% possible.

show me the mathematical equation that determines probability of artistic intention pls

oh hey man. looks like you got me

>he still hasn't listened to retarded wizards scraping chimneys of whatever bullshit you wank
>he thinks he's welcome on a music discussion board

This is Sup Forums for /music/, not Sup Forums for /art/ or /songs/

It's supposed to be a place to discuss the music, not the whole package

I mean you can also argue that the album cover is part of the album as much as the lyrics (they say an image says more than a thousand words). But that would not be exactly what this board is for.

t. not the guy you were replying to before

>What's the reason you ignored all of this?
can you read? i said in my previous post that i don't ignore them, there's just nothing to praise about it

>We are praising the songs, which includes both music and lyrics.
you're praising mostly lyrics, because outside of it this album is a dull throback that only people who've listened to lack of music in their lives (including bowie's discography) can praise

I mean, it's not bad, but my point is that it's not something that deserves to be praised this much
Even if I agree with you about your point that lyrics are 50% of music, that somewhat interesting lyrics are not enough for an album to deserve all this praise

ITT: butthurt classicfags

i don't know who are you talking about
bowiefags are clearly not big fans of classical since they care about the lyrics more than composition
bowie haters are either beyoncefags or scaruffi drones

shut up, faggot. I can tell you're another one of thiese false drama eat shit and it's art bullshit lovers. why don't you go shit a brick and head out

I mean all the people insinuating that lyrics shouldn't be considered part of the music

Oh yeah you're right man you don't seem mad at all

Since it's a yes/no choice, the probability is 1/2
>This is Sup Forums for /music/
lol
>Sup Forums - Music
>Discuss music, artists, and instruments here. All images should relate to the topic at hand.
Nice try though
>said in my previous post that i don't ignore them, there's just nothing to praise about it
Chart out the songs and show us.
>you're praising mostly lyrics
Quote me where I did

...

/thread

what is there to be praised lol

agreed pretty much

lots of scaruffi drones here

>check these dubs
>no dubs
I don't get it?

...

hot desu, source?

I love blackstar. I think it's incredible.

probably every song or album you like is related to a non-music context that plays an important role of it. It can go from memories evoked to the cover of the album, so it's pretty stupid to diminish the praise of an album trying to cut of the connection between the context and the music (music you probably don't remember because you only could hear your sobbing)

>Sup Forums doens't care about the music itself

do you like lemonade?

sorry i don't like to listen to trap

so, neo neo Sup Forums hates Blackstar, loves Oasis, and lana del rey is cool again
lmao u guys
what about Grimes? where is she now?

blackstar was pretty good though. lazarus is depressing af

grimes is confirmed proto-death grips, so i guess she's still mostly hated

there's like 3 trap songs

never listened to this or Bowie in general, but my friend boasts it's the best album of 2016.
Tempted to listen to it, but I dont think I'll get to appreciate it without listening to his stuff before.

>MBDTF

I agree. It's not good. I thought it was shit and thought it was another Thursday album of contrived music no one would like. Then he died and my opinion changed on the actual new tunes. The rehashes are total shit though.

a moon shaped pool

what's your motive op? I see this thread every time I come here and I don't get it cause it seems like such a safe opinion. No discussion of value ever comes from threads like this. Do you get some satisfaction when the idiots get up on arms about this mediocre album?

I doesn't really seem worth it to me.

Virgins is actually a glorious experience.

Lemonade collectively convinced hipster fucks that Beyonce is legitimate artist for making pop songs about being cucked by her husband.

weakassopinions2k16.txt

I'm in the same boat. Only album I've heard from him, thought it was just ok, best song Lazarus.

>caring about lyrics

Bowie was never a good music artist.

>muh bangers

what's wrong bith bangers?

>turns Death Grips on

[1]

I haven't liked a Death Grips project since Exmilitary.

Overrated, yeah, due to the context and the course of events.

But there are a ton of albums with more hype due to more bullshit reasons.

It's not often we see an artistic horcrux of this magnitude, so just let it slide.

Could you please explain what should Lemonade be praised for then?

i guess it sholdn't because she didn't die

this

this is much !!
how could we praise her if she's still alive !!!

this but unironically
Blackstar is aoty desu desu aoty

for the actual music maybe?
