the more i think about the batman the more i think it’s the best batman movie since TDK and is a top 5 superhero movie

it's true and false at the same time

i mean on sight beat is a tribute to chicago acid house and i don't think i ever heard someone rapping on this type of beat

Besides the fact that rock is in desperate need of fun music (which doesn’t strictly mean lighthearted; a lot of the greatest rock music of all time is dark as hell in temperament but fun as hell to listen to), it may need to let go of the puritanical adherence to live instruments - in both performing and recording

Low synths have replaced electric guitars; why do you think white boys who would have been rock fans in a different time are now fans of Mike Dean collaborators? And this is a small ass example

Oooor we can go with the hope that playing instruments becomes as in demand for the kids as being a rapper…but I doubt that will happen any time soon

cosmogramma is a great album tho ain’t gonna hold you

havent heard it in years but i dont find it very similar to yeezus at all lol, thought you were gonna link some underground experimental s***

Love flylo but there’s a massive difference between someone in Kanye’s position in 2013 making Yeezus and flylo making cosmogramma

also creative =/= experimental

ill listen, that cover is fire tbh

Yeezus the 2010s AOTD

Curren$y >>> 100%. Wiz is a weirdo to me, I fw his mixtapes heavy, but personally?

Exactly. It was always impressive from the perspective of mainstream music and nothing else

Word choices in lyrics have more to do with a melody sticking in your head than melody

the last of us part 2 is the greatest game of all time and the best narrative told across the video game medium

Nah i don't fw this

maybe in some cases

but when people like Lupe and Cham got screwed over by their labels and leaks there are examples of people that should've been more succesful that just weren't. We just saw JeenYuhs and saw all the work Kanye had to do when he obviously was going to be a star. The people making the decisions are often not making the best ones.

There's also cases where independent/underground rappers just simply couldn't market themselves to the nation, at least not like they can now. Bringing up Cham again people outside of Texas only know his studio releases when him and Paul Wall have southern classics together or that Cham has an incredible mixtape series.

But you can also look at other forms of media, where Family Guy was cancelled. Plenty of execs don't know what they're doing. Arrested Development was a show that got high praise but didn't get many viewers, and the network put it in a timeslot where it was destined to fail. But when Netflix streaming blew up it ended up as one of the most popular shows. Freaks and Geeks and Twin Peaks are more series that didn't get it's recognition during their time.

They said Moby D*** was trash when it released and now it's widely regarded as the best English novel of all time.

There's many more reasons why artists weren't successful or didn't get the recognition they deserved than just "it didn't appeal to the masses."

Bully has the best original soundtrack for a video game ever

Yup. I honestly don’t get the early backlash.
