Kendrick Lamar will kill your favorite rapper for money

lol

posts very much in character

swimming pools is awesome gtfo

well that settles it

swimming pools are awesome but that song kinda sucks

Listen to deej, j0rdan - just this once.

lol

curious to know if goons rate chief keef above this. obviously 2 very different beasts, but i think i might

i've played keef's album more but it functions that way. i wouldn't say it's better tho.

none of the songs on this are radio songs, get this album off the radio ASAP

well "swimming pools" was a pretty big radio song

also please get off the radio ASAP rocky

What was the consensus here about LongLiveA$AP?

easier to admire than to... i'll shut up

"poetic justice" is a good radio song (even if i don't like the way they shoehorn the title in the lyrics, the janet original is better, and drake adds nothing). curious what they'll try as a radio single beyond that.

"money trees" is the next one but apparently they cut the jay rock verse

ha so they're gonna work the "ya bish" song w/ all the "ya bish"es taken out huh

First time I align with deej in weeks. Anyway urban radio here only started playing SP in the last six weeks, so I dont hate it yet.

my fav part of "money trees" are those vocal gun sounds they brought over from "cartoons & cereal"

hmm i never put two and two together

A posh upper class form of a gold digging. When a man showers a woman with expensive gifts and money for strictly no sexual flavors in return

quoting KL lyrics?

try rapping it in triplets

Money Trees was my #1 from the beginning, continues to be my fav. It's a classic. No question about it. Love how "Hot sauce all in our Top Ramen" line doesn't even sound like english

smh

ya. that jay rock verse is easily best moment on the album.

hold on

lol the entire album?

yea, for me at least

it's up there

the contrast of a voice like Jay Rock or MC Eiht cutting through the middle of the album is used to great effect, definitely think those are standout moments

it hadn't occurred to me that people who have difficulty parsing american argot/slang/accent might not be able to glean the """CONCEPT""" on this album
thanks for making me listen to z-ro again today

Enough time has passed to ask this question: Do you guys return to this album very often?

I played it a bunch for the first few weeks. Now just returning to my favorite songs a couple times a week.

I play something from this at least once a week, usually daily

haven't really returned to it at all

i let it sit for a month and am now finding it on repeat front to back about two or three times a week

Still spinning it frequently enough that putting it at #7 on my EOY already feels too low.

I burned out on it in a week (which isn't all that unusual with albums I review), and haven't really revisited it b/c of its length and blockyness.

That distance hasn't really hurt my opinion of the album, though. Some friends played some album tracks on a satellite jukebox in a bar a few weeks ago and they sounded amazing.

I still don't believe it's a "classic" rap album as much as its a "substantial" one. Those aren't quite the same thing in my mind, though they're both certainly something worth celebrating

yep. fwiw this happened to me with Section.80 as well

I do sit-ups every other day and make chicken fricassee once a week.

Section.80 is easier to break into bite-sized pieces, so it's the more re-playable album in my mind
