there are like six tracks that are die hard 2 and the rest are some mix of the r worded mixture of die hard 3 + 4 with the earliest signs of bruce willis losing his mind but still feeling himself

notbrockI just can’t wrap my head around this argument
What is so interesting about Cartis vocals? Screeching, making random noises and doing goofy voices is that interesting?
People talk like Carti is one of the best vocalists oat or something. He’s not doing anything impressive. If a random no name did the stuff he did they would get clowned
I’m not making an argument lol. I’m just saying I like WLR because Carti is doing something much more interesting than he usually does
I’m in no way saying he’s an amazing vocalist, but on WLR he brings a raw energy that just works imo. And he made an album that stood out from what everyone else was dropping
I just really like when people make music that stands out, and it doesn’t sound like everything else

Everesti've been thinking about this too because to me there is a huge difference between trav's nothing raps and carti's nothing raps.
easy thing to attribute it to is that the appeal of carti's music is also just rougher around the edges and punkier etc. the entire musical presentation is different and so the threshold for lyrics is different.
WLR is a bunch of short hard ass rough songs, Utopia is lush and extremely dramatic, self-serious etc. the lyrics that each album's beats and overall aesthetic call for is much different.
but my other theory rn it's image/personality and basically everything outside of just the music
carti has a clear image, cult of personality, well defined persona, etc. whether it's even directly created by him or just built up by fans and the allure of his whole vibe, its strong. and when you bring all of that to a track where you're saying nothing, we attach way more too it and the persona fills in the gaps and becomes part of the listening experience. even if he's saying nothing, we think of the entire package and attach all of that stuff to it too.
trav obviously has a very cool image and more glossy brand but his personality is pretty dry and charismaless and so theres less to attach with and less to fill in the obvious emptiness
”carti has a clear image, cult of personality, well defined persona, etc. whether it's even directly created by him or just built up by fans and the allure of his whole vibe, its strong. and when you bring all of that to a track where you're saying nothing, we attach way more too it and the persona fills in the gaps and becomes part of the listening experience.”
exactlyi remember arguing that frank ocean does this s*** to an extent sometimes as well, frank ocean is def a great songwriter, but there’s times where it feels like he’s just saying s*** that don’t mean anything in actuality, however people are willing to fill in the blanks due to his reputation as a songwriter tied alongside with his deep, thoughtful persona etc.
obv travis and carti are way worse offenders than he ever is though

he isn’t but what he does is entertaining and engaging for sure
niggas on here just like to d***ride carti extremely heavy, so in between his aesthetic and being one of the few mainstream artists doing anything remotely subversive or “new” he gets a lot of smoke blown up his ass

Also you cannot take what a lot of these folks in here r saying as genuine. Like this is a fanbase that has actually been hypnotized lmao
They be in the Carti thread legit watching videos of him bobbing his head to white noise and going “yooo this is about to be AOTY😫”
Like they’ve already convinced themselves that whatever this nigga does next they have to like and defend

Like I don’t get it, calling out when someone isn’t getting a fair shake compared to others shouldn’t be met with such sensitivity
Aug 4, 2023·1 replyrx friendly ghosttravis scotch tape is still the rag you wipe your kitchen with after a mess in yr kitchen becuse he has nothing to say. completely empty vessel. you can't even try and fill him to make up a story - he is completely ordinary, sniffing kanye's floor for years and years to pick up a scent - which he got - which became "utoppia" - where nobody wants to go. the lead only last so long, and the money keeps pouring - you are a piece in a puzzle that never needed to be completed because if you weren't a travis scotch tape "guy"from the start, you already got siphoned
I’ve read this sober and I’ve read this high, and you are absolutely cooking.
