Albums Danny Brown x JPEGMAFIA - Scaring The Hoes (Discussion Thread)

[Piff Perkins]

This shyt is crazy. Sounds even fresher on subsequent listens too. My only complaint is some of the mixing feels off or muddy but then again that's almost certainly a deliberate artistic decision. It's supposed to be an abrasive kick in the face. Damn near the entire album would slap live too.

I Wanna know how much that MJ sample cost on Orange Juice Jones.

It’s funny you say that because JPEG got the most smoke for white people out of any other rapper. He easily say the word cracka the most and Danny brown called out folks for eating chicken sold by a white man

its like women listening to rap...
"he aint talkin about me...its them other hoes"

they dont care

Yeah this is trash.​

I don't mind that, but the problem for me with the mixing is balancing the music with the vocals. Danny's lyrics drowned out for more than half the album. After 1 listen some of the beats and sample choices are crazy. I'll see if it sounds better with the car test.

Kingdom Hearts Key is dope.

HOE is dope as fukk. But they shoulda used the voice sample part at the end as the main beat. shyt is beautiful.

Time stamped





Somebody needs to loop that

I ain’t gonna lie to you. I can’t hear shyt on this. This mastering is Blu level bad. The stuff I can hear sounds cool for what it is but I can’t hear Danny on nothing.

Agreed. It seems like this is something to perform live and have people acting a fool in the crowd. I maybe would peep if Danny does bruiser thanksgiving again this year.

Like other folks already said the balancing of the lead vocals is pretty off across the board with a few exceptions. The beat arrangements are great, the production itself doesn't have many competing frequencies with the vocals so its a little confusing why the vocals get drowned out as much as they do, especially someone who raps in as high of a register as Danny.

I enjoyed the production pretty much across the board but literally have to strain to hear wtf they're saying lol.

Is the sample in "Run the Jewels" well known? I know its a house song but I don't know if that was just popular in Detroit.

 

[JUSTIN HERBERT]

best album ive heard all year tbh

 

[JUSTIN HERBERT]

I aspire for these type of first listens.

Yeezus, early death grips, Blus No York, danny brown 30 + atrocity, tylers Cherry Bomb.

Just great original rap.

 

[NoStressB]

this is a god damn alternative rap masterpiece

the mixing didn't make sense to me at first, but the more i listen to it the more it works.

 

[LozLink]

This entire album is infectious. Good to hear Danny doing his thing, but his voice is way too low lol. Feel like Uzi would float on some of these tracks too.

 

[Mr Clean]

Running this back. Very enjoyable listen. These beats are bananas

I got the lossles on bandcamp and DB comes through a lot better
