Albums Dom Kennedy - Los Angeles Is Not For Sale, Vol. 1 (Discussion Thread)

[Cadillac]

This shyt is garbage

nikkas wanna call troy ave average.

This nikka is the embodiment of that.

And i thought nothing could put me to sleep like a Cole album. But boy was i wrong when i heard this

Production alright but i need more. U cant make me a fan by just production

 

[Medio]

heard some bad reviews about this
i'll listen eventually but he fell off after yellow album ...

tried to go to mainstream and it killed him
you know shyts bad when your old album is trending on twitter and your current one isn't

Dom sounding like 50 Tyson on here. Its really over for him

 

[NSSVO]

linkage?

 

[blizzard man]

This is pretty much how I feel.

My problem is not with the flow, even tho he sometimes sounds sloppy, its the voice. Who mastered this shyt, he sounds different sometimes
But on another note tho...ya'll nikkas were even in the Get Home Safely thread when it dropped also complaining about the flow Its been this way every time Dom drops a project

this is the most glaring difference i see

like listen to the quality of the mix and doms voice here:





then listen to the quality of the mix and his voice here:


its not just a difference in the beats and the energy each requires. bruh sounds markedly different and off

like, dom was already the low energy chill rapper, and now he like, tryna be even chiller, which is basically sounding dead

 

[WavyHair ChippedTeeth]

Say it aint so guys...

 

[OGBobbyJohnson]

Listening to this again..He really sounds like a low energy Riff Raff on the opening track

Polyester's tapes been better then Dom's for the past 3 years

 

[crush_sumpin]

They have. I guess I just want to see dom win too.

 

[aceboon]

Same story as the last few projects, his flow is completely gone, now I gotta search twitter to get a good laugh at the slander

 

[BlackDynamite310]

They have. I guess I just want to see dom win too.

Dom don't even want to see Dom win. It's over.

 

[HabitualLineSteppa]

they played passcode on power 106 last night that shyt was

i can't believe this is the same man that recorded the yellow album


either there's something wrong or he truly gives no fukks

i was a HUGE stan a few years back this is just shocking

Breh...So true...Something happened to Dom fam cause there is no way this dude is the same person...

California is nice but I'm so at the first 6 tracks I can't really let it breath right now

 

[HabitualLineSteppa]

How does one go from Watermelon Sundae to Platinum Chanel to 1997 to Been Thuggin and some mo shyt to.......

This.



After the third track I was ready to give Dom the same excuse as Spitta on Pilot Talk 3 (specifically "Search Party") cause it was clearly an error in mixing but as I listen to the OG Search Party with said bad mix it sounds waaaaaaaaay better than 4/5 of this Dom's album...

He's done brehs...
