You're not open minded, I doubt you listen to much "alternative" or "indie", it's 2015 and no one cares that the album isn't hip hop, the shyt is just bad. Coming from me a Cudi fan who admittedly lied to myself about Cudi falling off for so long, this album was ass.

I don't want the nikka to die though :mjcry:

Nah breh, my taste in most forms of music is pretty extensive. It comes from hitting up venues in the city and spending winters getting high and browsing music when I was living in the North. Everything from Sonic Youth to At The Drive-In to Wavves to Defeater to Deafheaven and so on stays in my playlist, in addition to all the Hip-Hop I consume. This isn't bad at all, people just didn't expect it on a major release.

I'll let that one slide, but when it comes to indie culture, I know my shyt. This is chill music to vibe to late at night, and it fits the vibe. You just gotta be in a certain state to listen to it.

I listen to everyone you just mentioned and way more and this is trash. Why listen to this when "Im in a certain state" than listen listen to way better alternative music whenever I want?

This is by far the worst body of music from a major artist in years. I thought WRZD was bad but this is another level.

The fact that your knowledge is so extensive and you're actually fukking with this got me like :mjcry:

I know how it feels when a dope artist goes off and tries to conquer another sound but until he gets it right, I can't cosign this bullshyt.

No this is a bad Nirvana impression with none of the variety or pop sensibility that made Nirvana so good.

Well if someone forced me to listen to that album again I might be on suicide watch.....

I didn’t think anything would be worse than that Dom Kennedy mixtape or Master P's new album. But his shyt was easily the worst album that dropped this year

:yeshrug: WZRD was trash but I like to keep up with new releases and if an artist's doing something different, I'll give it a fair listen. A lot of these new indie bands are just trying to copy LPs like Loveless and Surfer Rosa, but I feel like this is more like when Black Flag dropped My War, where most people won't fukk with it, but a few people will and it'll influence that part of the population heavy.

This definitely isn't the best music I've heard this year, not by a long shot, and it plays more like a collection of demos than an actual album, so I can see why people don't fukk with it, but I like lo-fi stuff because sometimes when songs are too overproduced it takes out the rawness and authenticity.

No this is a bad Nirvana impression with none of the variety or pop sensibility that made Nirvana so good.

Oh Cudi's definitely trying to ape Nirvana here, obviously Nirvana's much better but there basically aren't any bands that have maintained the level Nirvana were at besides artists like Led Zeppelin and the Velvet Underground. It's funny because a lot of this shyt reminds me of With The Lights Out - he's obviously trying to do a Kurt impression and some of it's off and some of it's on, but overall it's really not as bad as people are trying to say it is.

I'm clearly not going to change anyone's opinion which is fine, people have their own tastes and I can dig that. These pills are starting to kick in anyways so I'm going to drift off and see how this holds up in the morning. Later :deadmanny:

I hate how topics on non-rap in The Booth turn into jerk off sessions about how cool and different and diverse everyone's music taste is, it's corny

Breh you wanted to see my credentials, there they are lol. I'm not on that pitchfork "my music taste is cooler than yours" ego trip, but you can't tell an actual music lover that they don't know what they're talking about and not expect them to come back. No worries though, I'm going to bed so there's no need to keep it going. Night.

He should just dedicate himself to acting

He's completely shot when it comes to music
Or he should stop producing every goddamn project by himself :dahell::dahell::dahell:

I thought that shyt was a quaint, one off experiment. But nah, he only raps over his own shytty ass beats

And if hes trying to do the rock thing, shouldnt he collaborate? Since rock was played by bands, not single individuals
