    This. This right here. This is why I f***ing love ktt2. People are so good at slamming you with s*** you never heard of but is what you need to hear.

    i don't mind either way. but some artists are able to hit that perfect stride of making you feel s*** while also being able to hear something relatable or impressive. A lot of it has to do with artists wanting to be open with their life or not IMO.

    oh yeah dont get me wrong I balance it out hard. I was on kendrick when OD popped up on datpiff and loved jay electronica. I just can enjoy all sides if its just good music at the end of the day

    When’s the last time he’s sounded remotely like cudi

    Pink Tape actually but I was moreso just saying that’s his conceptual origin. The drum breaks and s*** from MBDTF and that subject matter and aesthetic with the Cudi hums and melody tactics and then everything he got from 2014 Atlanta lol

    I think astroworld is a pretty original album and sound tbh, doesn't sound like anybody else, although I do think he goes back to leaning on his influences more again on this project

    carti makes better music

  • Aug 5, 2023

    Diff types of music call for diff types of lyrics

    Carti on s/t, die lit and WLR had perfect lyrics. Those albums are fantastic contributions to music

    Similar to a Daft Punk record where the simplicity is part of the genre

    Travis Scott has received backlash over the lack of lyrical substance across his career and especially recently with the release of UTOPIA

    However, man like Carti has been releasing music about nothing (hide it in my sock ?? Molly my bean ????) for half a decade now but everyone seems to be okay with it

    What makes Carti’s poor content acceptable ? Is it because he works with meme producers (Pierre Bourne and wake up filthy) ?

    You got pierre f***ed up.

    if u replaced carti's vocals with someone elses there would be a noticable decline in quality of the music

    meanwhile replace travis' vocals with literally anyone elses and u will see a noticible increase in the quality

    that's the difference

  • Aug 5, 2023

    because he’s got that dawg in him.

    Travis be saying deep s*** and it comes off unauthentic.

  • Aug 5, 2023

    His lyrics in Sky kill most of Travis's lyrics.

    it isn’t necessarily just the lack of substance and lyrical content for Travis, it’s that he’s painfully generic and injects little to no personality into any of his vocal performances whatsoever

    it’s even worse because some references came out and some of these verses he didn’t even write at all, and instead just copy and pasted lyrics from it with no changes whatsoever lmao

    Carti in between his vocal pitch shifts, ad libs and changing inflections, it’s all very unique and standout and you can tell that it’s Carti just how he utilizes his voice alone, which makes up for his lack of lyrical content

    i still think he gets a lot of grace on this site anyways though cause niggas like to d***ride

    "it’s that he’s painfully generic and injects little to no personality into any of his vocal performances whatsoever" most pretentious argument against Travis music ever
