The coli is such a weird fickle place. If you conplain about a lack of lyricism, concept, or thought in todays rap music but you didnt like Big Fish Theory then YOU ARE the problem.
nikkas complain about everything sounding the same but when you give nikkas something different its a fukking outcry.

A lot of Hip Hop fans are just unsophisticated...

Big Fish Theory was godly

Legit can’t believe I liked a Tyga verse :wow:

When he wants to, Tyga can rap well. Hella Good remix with iAmSu and Problem is a good track but Tyga’s verse is probably the best on there

I’m not with this.

At all.

You complain about people who want lyricism, content and concepts then complain about albums like BFT?

How about the people who automatically equate different to good. Different isn’t always good. Unique means not like others, not better than others. Doing something different is to be commended, but if it doesn’t work to the ears or eyes of some people that stands.

The same kinda people who say shyt like you said are the same kinda people who used to prop up any random underground emcee in the early to mid 2000s as the antidote to mainstream rap music but in hindsight (or more specially, if you take off your bias) the MUSIC they made wasn’t good.

nikkas who would tell you Elohim Marino, Papoose or Immortal Technique made better music than [INSERT MAINSTREAM RAPPER] because they had bars or a message.

And this coming from someone who really likes Vince, trolling and all, and wants him to win. I think we need more people who think and express themselves like him in rap TBH, but that doesn’t mean that when I put on Crabs in a Bucket it only gets good when the beat really drops and Kilo Kish is singing/talking. Or the fact that Big Fish with Juicy J is by far and away the only song that had any kind of impact because it was structurally and sonically the best SONG on the album.

If you like BFT that’s cool. Rock out to it. I am a fan of a lot of stuff that some people wouldn’t be. My library can go from drumless loop Griselda rap to fukking Massive Attack to Hiatus Kaiyote.

But don’t be one of those people who equates having eclectic taste to having superior taste.

Facts. You articulated your point perfectly.

The fact that a lot of the posters in this thread who aren't big on BFT are also HUGE fans of everything (lyrics, conceptual projects etc) that he's claiming we're complaining about is laughable.

:dead:

3 lame posters on this page just need to take their L and bounce. They just want attention at this point.

Thank you for negging me @brownsugah since I now have a reason to get this off my chest.

Room 25, an album I really really like by an artist that is one of my favs.

We disagreed on it being AOTY, or greatest album since the invention of modern music or whatever soap box you were/are standing on.

Maybe since we had similar taste or we hadn't interacted much before then I didn't notice this, but since that disagreement I have noticed you are an utterly insufferable poster. Not on some innanet beef or forum shyt, you are overwhelmingly intolerable, petty (in the literal, not colloquial sense) and shady. I haven't taken your bait - you've subbed me a couple times, even once in another thread quoting a post but then deleting it from your post so I got the notification.

The only real reason I feel the need to address it this one time is because we are actually fans of the same artists and (sub) genres, so our posts intersect and will intersect in many threads.

I just want you to know this one time that I hear you and I see you.

You've been seen. You've been heard.

I’m shady and an intolerable poster yet you keep posting in my threads with hate and negativity. If I suck so much, why don’t you put me on ignore? Because you really don’t think that.

You have been pressed since I called your ass out on bullshyt in Room 25 thread. Y’all intentially tried to start shyt with me because i called Room 25 my album of the year.

You can take your paragraphs elsewhere. I don’t like you.
