242,000 in sales would make it the 10th-biggest debut of 2012. Second-highest rap debut after Roman Reloaded.

"Second-biggest," that is. (Minaj sold 253K in her first week.)

Schoolboy Q is def some of the most unpleasant and joyless 'smart' 'good' rap i've ever heard, can't stand that guy

Q can be boring in his lesser moments, but I don't get the "joyless" thing at all.
― thraeds of life (The Reverend), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 05:39 (twelve years ago)
Usually he sounds like he's just having fun messing around with weird adlibs and whatever.
And I've never taken him for someone trying to be a "cerebral" rapper in the vein of Kendrick.
― thraeds of life (The Reverend), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 05:41 (twelve years ago)
he makes my fav individual songs although i didnt really get into the one from this yr as much

"hands on the wheel" is one of my least fav rap "hits" of the year
― lil dirk (J0rdan S.), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 05:45 (twelve years ago)
hits? that's not even in the better half of the album at any rate. tbh "Druggys With Hoes Again" might be my favorite rap song this year and "Nightmare On Figg St" isn't that far off.
― thraeds of life (The Reverend), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 05:48 (twelve years ago)
Guys rap basically sucks now so take what you can get when you can get it, take it from the guy that's just spent the night getting drunk and listening to the new neil young record
― seasonal hugs (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 06:06 (twelve years ago)
what about that one song
― puff puff post (uh oh I'm having a fantasy), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 06:21 (twelve years ago)
what's wrong with it!
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 07:42 (twelve years ago)
i cant stand that song either tbh
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 08:01 (twelve years ago)
it's really pleasant ear candy to me
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 08:05 (twelve years ago)
It's a song I feel like I should like but don't really. Habits is a pretty good album and Q is a good rapper but I can never get all the way through it for some reason. I think the reason is that Q lacks imagination. His world is so small.
― O-Jah Da Lionmane (longneck), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 09:02 (twelve years ago)
And he raps with a frown.

Schoolboy THERE HE GO
― Raymond Cummings, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 10:37 (twelve years ago)
I prefer Q and Ab soul to Kendrick but I know I'm in the minority on this
All three will prob make my singles list this year tho
― Raymond Cummings, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 10:39 (twelve years ago)
And what about jay rock, i always thought about him as the fifth wheel, but his great verse on money trees is making me reconsider this.
― sisilafami, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 11:00 (twelve years ago)
i like jay rock, he reminds me of shouty generic rappers from the late 90s (like shyne!) that i've always enjoyed.
― "It's like death metal lyrics, but about a vagina." (a hoy hoy), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 11:02 (twelve years ago)
shyne is shouty?
― push iatee (some dude), Wednesday, 31 October 2012 11:07 (twelve years ago)
I haven't heard much jay rock yet honestly
― Raymond Cummings, Wednesday, 31 October 2012 11:27 (twelve years ago)
yeah i mean the fact that he sold 20% as many units as Taylor Swift last week is pretty remarkable for almost anyone besides Taylor Swift, especially a rap album and especially a debut album

ay, the Meek Mill is like a million times better than this.

granted Kendrick doesn't say "running shit... dihaerrea" but still
― Mr. Zone A (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 1 November 2012 01:52 (twelve years ago)
it's not
― lil dirk (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 1 November 2012 01:53 (twelve years ago)
pissed that the KL went on Spotify right on its release date but MM ain't up after two days. should just buy it anyway, my car needs new yelling rap.
― some dude, Thursday, 1 November 2012 02:04 (twelve years ago)
I got it on eMusic
― Mr. Zone A (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 1 November 2012 02:17 (twelve years ago)
I should prolly buy a hard copy tho.
his PR sent me a physical PR copy for some reason i haven't quite figured out yet
― lil dirk (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 1 November 2012 02:19 (twelve years ago)
uh a physical RETAIL copy
Posted up in the back of a Halloween party by myself waiting for Big Freedia to play.

the meek isnt as good as the kendrick but its not really that much worse either. its grown on me, i think initially i found it underwhelming but its much, much better than DC2 imo
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 14:53 (twelve years ago)
yeah disappointment made me think it was pretty bad, but it has really good moments. (i p much think the same about DC2)
― sisilafami, Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:18 (twelve years ago)
DC2 felt way emptier to me
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:21 (twelve years ago)
(don't get what you mean)
i also think the sequencing on D&N is terrible.
― sisilafami, Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:28 (twelve years ago)
the content of his lyrics felts less personally significant to him on DC2
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:36 (twelve years ago)
thats horribly worded. it sounded like his lyrical content was more detached / less personally significant on DC2
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:39 (twelve years ago)
i think he's yelling more and the beats are def meaner, which helps get that across too
