this artist is saying something we dont like "I would like to remind you he has worked with sprite and is a millionaire"

As I slip out the back unscathed. Hell yeah lol

artist doesnt speak out politically "he is a millionaire he doesnt need to speak ou the isnt in our class"

artist uses their voice but its on a product we dont like "this s*** sucks get back to rapping"

artist speaks on their own work "we dont like how you are speaking on your own work"

again telling a black person how to express about their own work and how others speak on it is insane

regardless of what he says you can still speak on it however he isnt copyright striking reviews

he is saying his opinion and expressing

It’s all subjective. I think art critics are funny as hell though. When you think about certain eras of music, the pioneers are usually people that were experimental enough to step into new territory, s*** just so happens to click. There are no rules to this s***.

Would it be worth revisiting Dark Times or Vince Staples LP?
Never really gave those two many spins

RPBMH got a fair few spins tho, especially Aye

This cry baby joint was a slog man

idk what this is about

"Both have blocked the other at least once, but neither have stopped replying"

you've been acting like this the past couple of weeks. this thread is just another in a long line, and you're just gonna be a d*** to me and every other poster for like 3 weeks then we're gonna talk about f***ing spider-man and you'll be nice so can we just save it and not fight about the fact that we disagree about the way vince staples is handling the reaction to his latest album?

And How did they make him infinitely more money?

Because the fact that he was a great Musician/Rapper. He wouldn't be able to get this deal if he was a regular degular person

I'm of two minds with it...

I do think that artists are allowed to clap back at reviewers if they say some s*** in a review that's inaccurate, or is just plain hating ass s*** that is barely related to the music.

I do also think that artists need to get the f*** over it if someone says a particular creative choice on a song or album wasn't good and it made for a bad moment or track on an album. The reality is, not everybody is gonna think a choice you made was brilliant and like it. Tough. Take that, learn from it, and move on.

Take niggas tryna sneak a Teezo Touchdown feature onto an album by not putting the features on the tracklist. That's a creative choice that I'm always gonna s*** on artists for cause it's both deceptive and ass.

many of you dont genuinely care about art and thats okay but inclusion is a hell of a d*** when you discuss artist random quotes from soundbites of interviews more than art. Tweets of clips. Stream clips. Then when it comes to post summaries of what you listened to at the end of the year nobody does . Album threads empty from actual discussion of songs and how art made you feel.

That's an assumption and who argued otherwise? I'm saying it's impossible for a nigga who has deals with Sprite, Apple and Converse (+ movie placements) (all off of the rap music that you're saying is slavery) to be a slave lmao

You can say streaming royalties aren't fair without just saying something ridiculous like that. Them niggas blinked and it was white men with guns telling them to get on a boat. This nigga made hundreds of conscious choices to be able to "flip burgers" via rap music lmaoo. Nobody stopping dude from working at a factory or legitimately and going to flip burgers

brother I havent responded to move all day at all. He liked a troll calling me a crackhead and talks crazy about me.

Good try cracker but focus on the topic

-Anybody with a mouth will talk

-Artists can talk back. Plenty have in the past (Axl Rose, Morrisey, Kanye, Halsey, to name a few)

-Sometimes you're just ahead of the curve and people go back to reevaluate your masterpiece.

-Other times, you just made some bullshit that no amount of ranting and raving after the fact can change.

rather than respond to what I said you tried to act like what I said to you was crazy. If he was saying "he loved all critics"

you wouldnt mention him being a millionaire.

Like what is he talking about

Lmaoo Sprite and Apple "saved" him from the slavery of being a rapper...by only being interested in working with him because he's a rapper? LMAO

I never really connected with those. Honestly, that's when I kinda stopped listening to his music all together. It just felt like music that was supposed to placed somewhere like in movies or shows

Back when I was tryna figure out the difference between Earl and Jack Mushroom, Vince was making some of the hardest music of his career. It's just so evident he doing this as a job, s*** is disheartening fr

i'm talking about you subbing me all over this thread...

you literally live in a rich home in California brother you arent some class conscious warrior you are white.

You're just making up your own narratives for no reason, it's not necessary

Leave it fam, cool it
We are all ktt2 fam
The discussion doesn't need to be this way

I see countless posters in the past few pages alone who I know love art & several who even dedicated their own time & resources to make art alone & with others

you are white.
you are upper middle class.

Its not a sub to you when it applies TO MANY USERS

if you feel personally attacked by me saying some white people and black users on this site police how black artist can express thats a YOU problem.

Crackagpt

lock thread

why do you think i'm rich? i'm sorry i don't really get it.

like i'm doing fine, but idk i'm not that
