anyway kevin isn't totally wrong -- the problem isn't the simile-simile style it's just that there haven't been many very good punchline rappers in forever, which is why like fabolous was the second most successful east coast rapper of the 2000s aside from jay-z
― nagl wayne (J0rdan S.), Monday, 15 February 2010 04:46 (fourteen years ago) link
and which is why when ny-centric rap heads & press throw their weight behind people like papoose and saigon and juelz satnana and lloyd banks the rest of the country rolls their damn eyes

i think it's referring to sosa (& mcgwire) hitting a billion homers and revitalizing baseball

You know as much as you guys make fun of Slaughterhouse, those guys are basically just good punchline rappers
― oh, wrinkle... pause (Whiney G. Weingarten), Monday, 15 February 2010 04:48 (fourteen years ago) link
i didn't listen to the slaughterhouse record but i can confirm that joe budden is about as far from a "good" punchline rapper as can be possible with someone who has any sort of talent
― nagl wayne (J0rdan S.), Monday, 15 February 2010 04:49 (fourteen years ago) link
I'd totally stan for the slaughterhouse album if the beats weren't lame as fuck
― oh, wrinkle... pause (Whiney G. Weingarten), Monday, 15 February 2010 04:50 (fourteen years ago) link
my problem with punchline rappers nowadays is that the songs date themselves so much bcuz those have pissing contests over who can get the most lines transcribed in the nah right comments section... so if you wanna enjoy a joe budden record that was put out 8 months ago you still have to able to lol at like taylor swift & kanye west

or you have to be ryan dombal so you can earnestly enjoy gudda gudda verses

budden's rss feed writing style is part of his problem but not the sum total, don't get that too twisted

oh i'm not even talking about the lame phrase-pause-punchline, even relying on similes in every other line grates on me--vag gangsta (k3vin k.)That's pretty known as "rap music"

this is even dumber and more reductive than when i was talking about how i like rappers to have personality and a sense of humor and you were all "you don't want rap, you want peanut butter jelly time internet memes"

joell ortiz is by far the worst member of slaughterhouse. at least budden has personality
crooked i & esp royce are totally defensible
as a unit tho the group is corny

besides being a saddo
oh come on dude hes by far the most outlandish character in the group. i mean im letting his youtubes & shit get in the way too, & im not saying its a personality i admire or anything, but hes definitely got a style that suggests he acts a certain way

I don't get this punchline from mimaj's verse on "lil' freak":
The girls want a Minaj yeah they wetter than the raininUsher buzz me in... EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND
never watched much ELR. do people... buzz him into their homes a lot?
― original bgm, Friday, 5 March 2010 18:34 (fourteen years ago) link
i like these being termed as "grocery bag lines"
"bout to set it off in this bitch...JADA PINKETT!"
what does this even mean
― HOOM gang (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 March 2010 18:35 (fourteen years ago) link

aaaaaaaaaah, thanks. :-)
my working theory was that it was a ref to this ep:
When Frank's late-night buzz sawing and Marie's persistent meddling bother the neighborhood, they meet with Ray to discuss how he'll inform his parents of their complaints.
― original bgm, Friday, 5 March 2010 18:44 (fourteen years ago) link
also his new album is called Raymond Vs. Raymond
on the Minaj poll thread i was talking about how Big Tigger thought she was saying "everybody loves reindeer," which still cracks me up
― some dude, Friday, 5 March 2010 18:45 (fourteen years ago) link
haha -- even though that show is garbage, i would def respect nicki more if she had an encyclopedic knowledge of ELR episodes
― HOOM gang (J0rdan S.), Friday, 5 March 2010 18:46 (fourteen years ago) link
"everybody loves reindeer" would be a way better show
― original bgm, Friday, 5 March 2010 18:46 (fourteen years ago) link
it's nice to find out that she's saying "Usher buzz me in," though, since she delivers that line in such a retard voice that it sounds like DURR DURR DURR DURR DURR

really like the song, tho. chorus sounds like it belongs in a late period bathory song.
