Honestly JPEGMAFIA, he’s way more exciting and fresh imo
they gonna cook you for this but you right and im not even a jpeg fan
Reminder this is the game guy who went on a whole rant about how you should “just like what you like and not what people think you should like” a year ago
id honestly rather hear from Peggy than Tyler rn. Idgaf
Maybe whatever Tyler comes out with next will change my mind but for the time being I’m not really interested
L
why would tyler of all people say this. acting like people didn't perceive odd future as "meme music".
if u make music ur a musician! if u make music that many other people like to listen to, u deserve some respect for it! does not matter if ur deathly serious or if ur joking around the whole time.
just another instance of tyler being pretentious and exposing his lack of appreciation for hip-hop
Idk I didn’t perceive odd future as meme music, I saw them as counter culture and a breath of fresh air in a genre that was turning to more pop type records (wiz khalifa went from a street rapper to pop rapper with rolling papers, Mac miller went from boom bap/sample to blue slide park, etc). There was a real negative sentiment towards mainstream rap.
Then odd future broke and it was like all hell broke loose.
But also odd future came out when I was in college so maybe I have a different perspective on it. I lived through it as a grown ass adult lol
This performance pretty much sums it up for me. This was before rappers were really raging on stage again

For sure; the way FIND YOUR WINGS is slept on is f***ing insane as well
100%
There were some flashes on Wolf but FIND YOUR WINGS, the production on BLOW MY LOAD (even tho I dont know what he was thinking with the mix or some of the lyrics) & 2SEATER (I looooove the end of that s***) was when I started realizing he was gonna be different production-wise.
nah he's actually right lol you just don't get what he's saying and think he's wining about the new school but that's not the case. We have literal rappers who don't care about music in any form but use the genre to establish or expand themselves as a brand.
Some obvious examples: Yung Miami, Every single reality TV star with a tiktok hit
You can say Odd Future were maybe considered meme music but at the end of the day most of them were still musicians.
When they came out, I wouldn’t say they were meme music, they are just perceived as that in hindsight
Back in the day when they came out, they were more counter culture. Mainstream Rap was in a very bubblegum place back then

Honestly the old old s*** like VHS/wheels showed mad potential too

agreed
Op came through and added depth to the title
It’s literally night and day lol
“Tyler The Creator says rappers of today aren’t musicians”
vs
“Tyler The Creator says rappers who ‘don’t care about music’ aren’t musicians”
Those aren’t even close to the same statement lol
Tyler thinks because he knows what a chord progression is and tossed a group of violinists in a room he can start looking down on the genre that made him. He has a history of this weird elitist mentality - by far the most obnoxious musician.
he is a spawn of kanye after all
It’s literally night and day lol

Yeah, the state of KTT threads are in life support
feel like hes said this twice a year the past decade with a different funny hat & shorts on each time
Honestly JPEGMAFIA, he’s way more exciting and fresh imo
idk why ppl are disagreeing, tyler and peggy are some of the greatest producers of this gen
Honestly JPEGMAFIA, he’s way more exciting and fresh imo
Anthony Fantano and his boys really tricked y’all lol
He not wrong. If you don’t take pride in your work it’s hard to respect that person in that field. A lot of people ain’t musicians they’re just trying to find a sound that will make money. They’re businessmen.
It’s not exclusive to music or elitism either. If you a chef and don’t give a f*** about the food, chefs won’t respect you.
Tyler is making KTT choose between their hatred of Tyler and defending absolute garbage 😩
