Vince Staples - Summertime '06 (Discussion Thread) *Stream*

[Dirty D]

This is the first time I've ever listened to Vic Staples

...A LongBeach youngin GOin HAM on that 90s Westcoast sound/NIN production

I feel like fukk Versace, they rapin' nikka's pockets
And we don't get acknowledged, just thank me for the profit
A prophet just like Moses, if Moses look like Shaka
Zulu, my .44 loaded, I'm aimin' at Nirvana

Just started listening to this. These bars literally came in as I was reading them.

A few songs have come up on my shuffle over the last few days but nothing memorable. i like Lift Me Up to kick off the album though. More thoughts later...

Vince is definitely talented. This is a solid album. He's a better rapper than he is a song maker. The monotone chicks singing can go. Will be keeping an eye out for his future material.

Yeah, I feel like Vince needs a mentor to help him channel his raw talent into great songs. He can rap his ass off, but there wasn't a song on this album of three 16 bar verses. And his hooks were hit and miss. But he's so fukking good at rapping that you don't really care.

Kid is incredibly talented. He needs a real team behind him that will invest in him and help develop him as an artist.

Yeah man Vince is a beast, he went a different direction with his latest album but I ain't mad at him for experimenting and he can really rap though. People be sleeping.

You gonna be disappointed with his latest project. Prima Donna he started switching up his style... Big Fish Theory has some good songs, but the rest is forgettable

Well the thing is he was rapping over Electronic music style beats so he watered down his lyrics considerably. Check it out for yourself, don't let us convince you not to.
