good idea. itt we talk about these bad lil teenage rappers from l.a. i've only listened to Earl Sweatshirt's album Earl, but I went on a downloading spree last night. it's all gleefully offensive in a very adolescent way, but i like some nihilism in my rap sometimes and they can spit.

so glad bear x3 fux w/ these dudes :D

promo & tyler's video for VCR

<3 these dudes but its both hilarious and ///// that both tyler and computer magic have songs called VCR

fort thunder 4ever or something idk

idk abt "gleefully offensive" but taking a battle rap route of being more evil & twisted than the opposition and post-horrorcore & post-eminem and adding it to male teenage outcast loser nihilistic aggression over undie rap beats maybe

what the hell is computer magic

anyway French just got me to drag skateboard out to the street and try some tricks that i know better than to try anymore

xx have VCR too right? :D

love this shit good thread

really like those first two videos/songs. like, a lot. very cool.

man those liquid swords synths on EARL

damn i had no idea that earl (of) sweatshirt was only 16

different coast, different era but these guys kinda give me a "fondle 'em" records vibe in a way

why is no one complaining about another band with wolf in the name

it's not a band, or even a group

it's an animal collective a rap crew

not another rap crew with wolf in the name

that earl song is awesome tho

these kids are from cali right?

yeah, l.a. hence the refs to hating jerkers. and hating gangbangers i guess. they also seem to hate teh gays, i'm afraid, tho i guess more or less casual homophobia doesn't tie them into any particular region.

also they're 16, so i'll give them a bit of a pass

This is a picture of me and Tyler taken today in front of supreme in LA

http://a.yfrog.com/img830/6228/ow4m.jpg

Kicked it with them for a couple hours. coolest, friendliest most hilarious dudes. Fucking Awesome.

Golf Wang.

lol surfboards you look exactly how i pictured you, down to the sunnies. also :D

lmao

Loving this. Makes me nostalgic to cut class smoke a blunt then watch CKY

totally!

always pictured surf as some scrawny adhd manchild for some reason haha

no offence

btw lol at:

apparently earl got sent to boot camp haha

Rev the only thing you got wrong is the scrawny part. I have the body of a Greek god

lol

yeah when i read the article by noz in the wire about them, and it going on about how he wanted to interview earl except his mums sent him to boot camp made me LOL

lol at "his mums"

Earl got summer school, that's all

SMOKING WEED
FUCKING BITCHES
AND EATING CEREAL

so rolling papers is pretty much 16 year olds taking on 'madvillainy'?

definitely traces of wiz khalifa here too

the prod is def like what madlib does on madvillainy and then of course in the clipped rhyming about weed you can see mf doom

but there's also 2000s pop rap swagger & shit talking that is a huge part of wiz's music & some songs have that airy sort of quality that a lot of his mixtape tracks

it's not like the music is POST-wiz or anything but that's what it reminds me of in terms of shit that's popping right now

ha on this track where domo & ace creator go back and forth dissing each other ace creator says that his shit sounds like knock off wiz khalifa

lol and at the end they steal arizona ice teas

this is really good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH2_HW7HVvE

i really reall hate being this guy but for the record Tyler the Creator is 19 years old. not sure how old Domo is. obv Earl is very young.

I AM FUCKING WITH "ROLLING PAPERS"

swag this whole tread the fuck out

it's okay to say how old ppl are for the record

glad to know that OFWGKTA aren't anti-swag

ayo j0rdan

yeah this shit is ill

tyler's gonna move like 85k this week, pretty impressive

i bought one

I saw these slouching cretins on Letterman the other night. Very disrespectful young men, too stuck-up to let Paul and the boys spruce up their shitty little rap song with a rockin' keyboard solo. I wish them ill.

new earl, nice vince staples verse

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FcDXL5Aw0o

good track

"guild" is a great song, have come back to that a few times

hm yeah this goes tough

what is the story with DORIS? do we have a target release date?

August 20

Earl is so damn good.

other recommended vince staples?

his new tape (produced by mac miller) is pretty good : http://www.datpiff.com/Vince-Staples-Larry-Fisherman-Stolen-Youth-LP-mixtape.501544.html

will try

hardly a novel observation, but this makes me think that earl is an amazing writer, but def not the most charasmatic rapper around. staples brings a lot more personality to his (much less distinctive) verse.

great video though.

earl definitely seems less charismatic since growing up, there's a weird dead-eyed quality to his raps that wasn't there before

it's pretty doom-ish i think crossed with an overt depressive vibe

US Rapper Tyler The Creator unleashes a torrent of hate on Sydney activist

I’m a 23-year-old psychology student from Sydney and in June this year, I was subjected to a horrific torrent of abusive tweets from fans of touring American rapper Tyler Okonma. I challenged Okonma’s lyrics which encourage rape and violence against women by vocally supporting a petition on change.org that suggested he shouldn’t be playing all-age shows.

At Tyler’s concert in Sydney the next day, he told his fans he hoped my children got STDs, and “dedicated” songs to me that included lyrics like “punch a bitch in her mouth just for talkin' shit”.

The abuse started almost instantly. First a drip, then a rush, then a flood. I felt physically sick. He had 1.7 million fans, and it felt like every single one of them had some violence stored up for me - a promise to assault me, the threat that they would rape me, an expression of hatred for my life and my freedom.

It was terrifying at first, and then I started to feel totally disconnected from myself. When one of them said he was going to mutilate my body, I couldn’t comprehend that he could be talking about me. The messages were coming at such a rate I couldn’t keep up.

I received threats from Okonma’s fans constantly for two weeks and I still get the odd tweet of abuse today. In a tone eerily similar to Okonma’s lyrics they sent messages like: “shut the f--- up cuz if I see you on the streets I’m gonna snatch u in a alley and force this d--- in you,” “how’s that for promoting rape? I’m f---ing DOING it! So watch ur back, but ur families will be first” and “you know you secretly want @f---tyler to forcibly penetrate your anal cavity”.

Daily Life

This is why i could never get on board with odd future. This shit is the furthest thing from harmless or funny.

ugh. thought this was bumped cause of the earl album. what a dipshit.

can't read

fuck school

lol

i'm in to this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28JAS1ZUUqw

yeah syd's really more comfortable on this album and you can hear it in her performances.

i really like that song

unfortunately the rest isn't quite as good as this, but there are a few songs that approach this

It's really chill for sure

I need to revisit the debut to make a good comparison

New Tyler streaming

is this where we talk about The Internet's Ego Death? because searching for a thread about The Internet is impossible and this album is terrific.

who needs Frank Ocean?

Fucking amazing album 🐋

agreed! great album.

"ego death" is A++++++++

Good p4k piece on 10th anniversary of first OF mixtape: https://pitchfork.com/levels/found-family-how-odd-future-changed-everything/

But more than clothing and cover stories, the collective’s greatest triumph is just being here in the present, still actively participating in the musical conversations they helped start. From the days of that first mixtape 10 years ago, or even when they wowed critics and fans in the years that followed, there was no indication these scatalogical teens would see such levels of notoriety, let alone the Grammy stages they dreamed of. (Tyler, the Creator, the Internet, and Frank Ocean have all earned nominations in recent years, with Channel Orange bringing home a trophy.) Like N.E.R.D. and Kanye West before them, masses of artists and fans alike found belonging and freedom in how Odd Future chose to create and live. Their legacy is one that demands we bask in complicated truths, reminding us that nurturing the parts that don’t fit is how any culture moves forward.

too bad none of them ever actually made a great front-to-back album. Ocean came closest I guess.

I think Blonde and I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside qualify, but yeah, I remember how much excitement there was for Goblin after "Yonkers," and how deflated everyone was when the record came out.

honestly Earl's first album is great too

I still think the person who benefited most from the rise of Odd Future was Nardwuar.

Tyler has been quietly making some pretty cool records lately

xp lol

(also 'The Internet')

y'all are shortchanging the whole crew. Earl has made 2 excellent albums, Tyler has been up and down but at least is interesting, Syd/Internet's made a couple excellent albums, Frank is obviously on his own journey, but 'nostalgia, ultra' is a classic and 'channel orange' is good, and the rest of these dudes do their thing. 4 big-time, relevant artists out of a crew of 8-10 is pretty good. never mind both the short- and long-term impact they had in terms of the industry, the internet, youth culture, etc. they altered things forever!

i'm not even a huge fan, but given what they were when they started and where they're at now, the story of OF is one of major success and influence.

I can agree that they were successful and influential and still believe, as the article itself notes, that the actual music was never consistently impressive

our culture is in a post-music place now, and they had something to do with it. I don't like the outcome, but I can't deny that that's what happened either.

Doris is possibly my favorite album of the 2010s so far.

earl is consistently impressive. they only need 1 ringer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nytpYtLtHpE

The logical conclusion of the original Odd Future trajectory. (Thankfully Tyler's actual solo output has turned out to be much more interesting than I'd have anticipated.)

Of course. Given Tyler's admiration for Pharell and the Neptunes it was only natural that he would eventually go the same direction as Pharell would.

a few months ago I was just drifting around my digital archive via sonos and ended up listening to, and enjoying an ep by 'hodgy beats'.
I had no idea as who/where/what I was listening to and sonos gives no indication as to the directory in which the files are located.
came as a shock when i came to realise the source.
basically many years ago i had 'found' a folder on mk1s laptop of odd future related releases and nicked them off him, and had completely forgotten about them.
