Is El-P an insufferably wack CAC or a genius?

[Big Mel]

This is the beat that sways me towards the latter....especially when it switches. But I DON'T KNOW WTF HE'S TALMBOUT, EVER.

I think that you're overthinking something as simple as music.


Also, I agree with the opposite of whatever @SirBiatch says. Dudes cornier than fat b*stard shyts

 

[noumena]

He's one of those no middle ground rappers... you're either gonna love him, or think he's fukking awful....aint no " he's iight" with El-P.

When it comes to Run The Jewels, I just listen to the Killer Mike verses.

Funny you say that, I came in here to post that I don't agree with the options in the thread title. I don't think he's genius, and I don't think he's insufferable. He's pretty middle-of-the-road. When he's on, he's on, at least production wise.

I don't think El-P's music was ever intended to be simple. Hence my confusion.

Fukk El P for ruining killer mikes career. cold vein was sick tho.

Ain't Killer Mike a grown man? He made the choice to do the RTJ thing iwth El-P, no one forced him.

And regarding El-P I only really check his instrumentals, he has crazy beats...FanDam is dope indeed, and the production on Cannibal Ox...

I prefer RTJ2. I was actually really into that album for like 2 weeks. Thread aside, I do like El-P....I guess. Like, I hear his stuff, and find it impressive. But I rarely clamor to hear it again and again. There's rarely the "Wu-Tang again? Aww yeah again and again" factor. But I feel like he's gonna land on lists above the Havoc's and Extra P's, possibly even the Q-Tip's if we don't watch these hipsters and check 'em.

I never heard of him before killer mikes "Rap music" album. I loved rap music, RTJ first album was good but I never got into the second one. It was too geared towards their cac fan base in my opinion, which made sense since most of their fans are cacs.

I hope killa focuses more on his solo album and looks out for his core fans. We need that monster, pledge, militant killa mike back.

Monster was trash. But bammas gon' bamma.

Lies. I recall when a cat brought it over the rib, amidst the OC, Jay Z, De La, even Nas. He put that wack shyt on and it didn't make it past 3 songs.

Wack that you base your opinion of Fantastic Damage on the first 3 tracks of a 16 track album smh. You missing out breh... Some exquisite shyt on there...

I was talking about Funcrusher Plus. I fux with FanDam.

 

[GoonbergScandal]

Honestly, Mike's stuff was wack beat wise for the most part pre El P. I bought all those Grind albums after the RTJ boom and save a few cuts they are noisey, southern bogus.

Killer Mike's very first album under Dungeon Family was absolute underrated fire. Monster was released on a major label, and yet was still slept on.

Monster???? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL. BABBAGE. I bought that wack shyt off the stregth of him murdering Stankonia. Slimm Calhoun album looks like Illmatic by comparison.
