And the Weeknd. Drake doesn't produce shit. I'm not sure he knows how. If he does, he has no interest in doing it. He likes to "executive" produce... re: finance ... shit. Likes to put his name on things. When his era ends, he's going to be a major facepalm for the folks who like him. And what's weird is that a lot of hip-hop fans really don't like him. I mean, I Fucking hate Meek Mill as a person and as an artist, and he's an awful human being, but his take on Drake being "buttery soft" is very common. In fact when I sit and think about it, I'm not sure who his audience really is. Also, "woes" means "working on excellence" so... that hurt my view of IYRTITL. |
you know how that shit go

It's one of the opening lines to his new song with Kanye. My reaction wasn't different than yours. Kanye definitely had the better verse on the song, by the way. |
Hey I forgot to mention this, but back in March when Kanye was changing Life of Pablo on TIDAL, and even non stop Kanye cock-gobblers like pitchfork were bitching about him trying to milk cash from the millions who signed up for the free trial of TIDAL just to hear TLOP, TIDAL actually sent me an email and said that because of the updates to the album, my free trial was being extended for another month.
I received two of these emails, one around the time he made the first change (to "Famous") and another when he restored balance to "Wolves" and threw "Frank's Track" on there and made some changes to the bass level in some parts of the album. Nobody reported on this. Pitchfork didn't. But they would have if they'd known, because they report on everything that has anythjng to do with Kanye. None of the media outlets I visit noted that anyone who joined TIDAL just for TLOP was given TWO trial period extensions, rather than being billed for the next month. I just thought this was important to point out. I originally said here that I opted to keep my Tidal subscription, and I did, but I didn't realize they hadn't charged me until later. Then the album went up on Spotify and Apple and Googlr Play and then it was for sale (and I have purchased it, and have an encrypted download link that I can access from any computer as many times as I want to.) So, I guess I should publicly say that Kanye did pretty much everything I wanted him to do, and I believe he has actually come through pretty well on this album in terms of making it available to fans while also supporting TIDAL (which should be more popular than it is, because he sound quality is bomb, and musicians get better compensation than they do through Spotify). So I'm pretty happy with he whole thing now. I just hope a hard copy is eventually available. |

No surprise there. I'm not really sure what Drake's actually good at. I thought it was punchy one liners, but apparently not. And if you look at his career highlights, most of them sound like they're direct ripoffs of something Kanye did ten years ago. Look at "6 p.m. In New York," which aside from "6 man" is my favorite track on IYRTITL... Tell me that song isn't just a grab-bag of Graduation era sounds and sentiments. The rest of the album has more of an 808's/Yeezus minimalist vibe, but that song just screams Kanye from the lyrics to the synths to the message and beyond. Don't get me wrong, I love the song, but I love it in the way I love Jedi Mind Tricks: with reservation, knowing that -- like JMT with their never ending Wu-Tang rehashes -- Drake is doing nothing to distinguish himself or add something new to the zeitgeist, and is unapologetically, and quite simply, TOTALLY ripping off another artist, who made the same sounds with the same lyrical styles in fucking 2007 and did it 20 times better. Just like how Take Care was more of a "I can do MBDTF stuff also kinda!" than any sort of unique or singular attempt to build an identity, and Nothing Was the Same was mostly 808's with a weird crooner vibe to it. Drake's goddamn lucky Kanye seems to be tolerant of him, and even seems to be his friend. |
New ASAP Ferg album soon and here's the tracklist:
![]() Chuck fuckin' D?! |
Drake is the cock gobbler Donny Osmond of rap. he's so fairy and sugary that his rhymes float to the top of the atmosphere after released from the speakers.

If hipster means huge maniacal music fan who loves Sonic Youth, Kanye, unwound, DJ Koze, aphex twin, tom waits, tons of electronic music and hates modern indie rock, then yeah I guess I'm a hipster. |
