Can someone explain "fake deep" to me

[Pool_Shark]

Just another term people say to feel smart.

 

[King Ming]

Dead Prez = Deep

K.Dot = Fake Deep

 

[up in here]

"Deep" is a term people use when they don't really understand you, but they like you. Like they just nod their head and say "that shyts deep".

"Fake deep" is a term people use when they don't understand you and they don't like you. Like they shake they head and say "nah that shyts just fake deep".

Both instances the person doesn't really understand you. Maybe you're for real and have a point that goes over their heads, maybe your not and you don't. The only difference between "deep" and "fake deep" is whether or not they like you.

Also "deep" and "smart" are not the same thing.

Yes one can be Pseudo intelligent. Such as one believing their intelligent, or awake when their really not. Kendrick's raps about the black experience are nothing considerably PROFOUND, and it's hilarious that people think he's rapping about a black experience, and that his raps are intricate when it's all incredibly shallow. Whether he blatantly mentions BLM or not, he's towing the media bandwagon line of the liberal left-"We gon be alright!"

Alright isn't supposed to be a super deep song though

You act like every attempt at a social conversation is supposed to be scholarly written and peer reviewed by scientists/

It's a musically enjoyable song with a positive message that served both as a banger and a rallying cry.

Kinda like what P.E. used to do/

basically when someone is pretending to be in some sort of struggle but in reality he's completely fine

like Drake, J.cole, Kendrick (that's why I hate those fakkits)

 

[mobbinfms]

yes, If its poorly done, then yes, it should be labeled as fake deep.

Can't a real deep song be poorly executed though?

Again, it seems your position boils down to whether you like the artist or the beat.

 

[tkmc]

here is a "real" deep track...

 

[mobbinfms]

Thus, YG > Kendrick

 

[mobbinfms]

Who cares if they're poets though?

I only respect successful execution

Attempts isn't good enough. Intentions aren't good enough.

Ya'll keep wanting to reward attempts..."well he's trying to share positive messages"...no one cares!

Everybody he mentioned has made classic music though. So they did successfully execute.

 

[mobbinfms]

Don't be dumb. You all would deny the validity of this SYNONYM if we used it.

Don't act like changing the word would shift the sentiment.

At least pseudo intellectual has an accepted meaning.

man, get the fukk outta here with that bullshyt.

 

[RTF]

Mainstream hip hop artists do this a lot. Especially now.

It's like a box ticking exercise. "Song for the ladies, club banger, motivational song, conscious song - album done."

These songs often sound trite.

So all i got from the thread is this.

IF you rap about the hood, you're fake deep

if you don't rap about the hood, you're fake deep.

if you rap about serious subjects in simple manners, you're "fake deep" because you're not giving enough insight

IF you rap about it in complicated manners, you're "fake deep" because you're try too hard to be lyrical


i'm telling y'all, it don't exist.

theres a quality factor you're not including. Thats why you're being dense.

Its not just the topic, its how its done.

Ya'll avoid addressing the fact that some artists just don't have any oomphf to them or swagger and why their shytty rhymes don't cut through enough.

Take this half assed criticism and keep it moving

No.

THATS BULLshyt.

This has nothing to do with "not understanding"

We can understand fake-deep people. We understand they don't know enough shyt or that they THINK they know more than they do.

Being fake-deep is when we both know you're bullshytting.

i'm pretty sure 99 of 100 people WOULD NOT label beyonce as pseudo intellect, that's always been one of the knocks against her - how "dumb" she comes across. now if you wanna call out her pandering to BLM/black pride in formation, that's cool, but her music is the epitome of dumbed down

Beyonce is a pseudo intellectual from the top of her head, down to her feet. You do realize that every aspect of Beyonce is completely manufactured, and monitored under the tight grip of her mother, and other Knowles management, correct? She doesn't write her own music, the only things she does are sing and perform. All of her interviews are scripted; as well as pre-screened. As for her "intellect" lastly, lets that that whole bullshyt of that superbowl BLM shyt she pulled, as well as the shyt in her videos. She doesn't know, or give a shyt about real black issues, just the ones her handlers tell her to speak on. I find it funny that during her superbowl performance, nobody called out the fact that she was up there in a blond weave, projecting "black pride", while natural dark haired sistas danced around her. Beyonce doesn't have any real opinion, and all you have to do is just watch her interviews. Plus anyone who would blindly get behind Hillary Clinton, or support bullshyt gun control campaigns already show me where their intellect lies.
