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.

And he raps with a frown.

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

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) link
i like jay rock, he reminds me of shouty generic rappers from the late 90s (like shyne!) that i've always enjoyed.

I haven't heard much jay rock yet honestly

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

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) link
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) link
DC2 felt way emptier to me
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:21 (twelve years ago) link
(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) link
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) link
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) link
i think he's yelling more and the beats are def meaner, which helps get that across too
― Mr. Zone A (Whiney G. Weingarten), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:41 (twelve years ago) link
maybe it's all the deflated early responses but DAN is sounding pretty awesome to me atm
― some dude, Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:42 (twelve years ago) link
i even like the not-the-point songs like 'layup' and that R&B joint near the end (actually that might be one of my favorite tracks)
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:43 (twelve years ago) link
"Young and Gettin It" is really really terrible tho
also the like diarrhea / i'm the shit lyric is offset by following it up with the line about how he hasn't given a fuck since his dad was killed :-(
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:44 (twelve years ago) link
i was about to say even "young & gettin it" sounds good in album context, compared to as a single. verses on mary j song are great too.
― some dude, Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:45 (twelve years ago) link
i think i just hate meek mill sex raps
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:45 (twelve years ago) link
i like the mary j joint
― fanute da croupier (D-40), Thursday, 1 November 2012 16:46 (twelve years ago) link
john legend joint should've taken a cue from kanye's "blame game" and had an extended outro of a robot girl voice going "rozay calls my pussy maybach curtains"
