Posted: **Thu Sep 13, 2012 1:49 pm**

Yea, don't like any of those artists.

Posted: **Thu Sep 13, 2012 6:09 pm**

Nah... I'm not excited at all

Posted: **Thu Sep 13, 2012 9:17 pm**

Can't say I expected anybody else to want this album :giveup:

Posted: **Thu Sep 13, 2012 10:17 pm**

Many of the artists who makes the mainstream rap terrible in one single album? Only a nuclear bomb could be worse then this.

I would recommend the producers Snowgoons newest album Dynasty

Spoiler!

I own every Snowgoons albums legally. Real quality hiphop.

I guess I should mention that I rarely listen to rap for the meaningful lyrics :roll:

cant expect that on srf :o
I am downloading it but im wondering if i'd like it as much since im listening to odd future shit right now and the sounds are totally different ._.

I think its stupid to judge artists based on only listening to the shit that makes it on the radio, which are obviously more pop-oriented. judging kanye west after only listening to songs like heartless, stronger, without going deep into his albums such as all falls down, gorgeous, murder to excellence, which comment on social issues and self-reflection..

Posted: **Thu Sep 13, 2012 11:32 pm**

Been listening to the tracks on that album for a while. Really into the G.O.O.D music crew lately. Tracks like Clique, New God Flow, I Don't Like, Mercy, etc. are gold.

P.S: I like how Watch The Throne had a similar cover but gold.

Posted: **Thu Sep 13, 2012 11:42 pm**

Yeah it's definitely different from Odd Future. I wish I knew enough about music to describe what type of 'rap' it is, but for now, I'm just going to say Odd Future is more underground oriented and Cruel Summer is more mainstream/radio oriented. Not that it's a bad thing, but you're gonna find more rap hipsters on the internet that are more into the raw rap flow.

I think there's a fair range of variety in the album, one side being Clique, Mercy, Cold I Don't Like, and the other being To The World, Higher, and Bliss.

The album stars Pusha T, 2 Chainz, Big Sean, Common, Cyhi Da Prynce, John Legend and Teyana Taylor.

What do these acts have in common? Not much, actually.

And yet, even though everyone has a different style, background and shape, each piece fits perfectly into Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music puzzle.

Pusha is a loud, brass criminal-minded rapper; Common is the calm, thoughtful veteran with dense rhymes; 2 Chainz is the goofy one with loud, exaggerated style and fine comedic timing; Big Sean is the slick-talking underdog; And Kid Cudi, well, Kid Cudi just belongs in Other.

Add that in with leader Kanye West, who basically contains every one of these traits, and you have G.O.O.D. Music and their debut album — and what a debut, from the crew that, for the most part, gives everyone equal opportunity to shine.

Kanye has his moments, often happily stunting on the competition (like in the celebratory “To the World,” which features R. Kelly.) Pusha, as usual, wonderfully keeps things in the gutter, like on “New God Flow,” where he brags about being Shyne to Kanye’s Puff.

G.O.O.D. Music’s newest member, Teyana Taylor, gets to show her chops in a duet with John Legend, which sounds like it's from the '80s. Even Cudi comes through with his rap/rock style (again, he goes in the Other category.)

The only one who unfortunately gets shortchanged is CyHi Da Prynce, who only has one standout verse, on one of the album’s deeper cuts, “Sin City.”

With only 12 tracks, Kanye still finds ways to mix in some outsiders, with legends like Jay-Z, Raekwon and Ma$e, who all bring their A-game.

They're both (OFWGKTA and GOOD) unique but in different ways. That review nailed it pretty much though. Pusha-T does have that aggresive flow (dat verse on mercy), Big Sean has a comical approach to his flow ("Boii Boiii", "Oh god, Oh goooddd"),etc.

I'll even listen to 2Chainz now because of that trap influence his tracks have. His lyrics are usually shitty but the way he'll rap them is extremely catchy. Love his southern accent.

2Chainz ft. Kanye West - Birthday Song ; Weak lyrics, good sound.

Termanlogy's flow is fucking insane

The fact that Freestyle is in many of their songs makes it even better, he has never dissapointed me.

Respect, this is legit rap.

I love every kind of rap, I can enjoy raw talented lyricism such as Eminem's oldest stuff (his new stuff is still great but still) or Slaughterhouse. (Not going to talk about pac and big, no need for)

I also like more "entertaining rap" when you just want to hear a catchy instrumental with a catchy flow on top.

Dang...where have this alum been hiding?...Lyrics off da hook. I love hip hop and thought it was dead...at least this type of hip hop...old school flava... Time for me to crawl out from under the rock and stop believing that the tru hip hop era died..

Posted: **Sun Sep 16, 2012 5:57 pm**

Common, Pharrell, Mos Def, Ghost Face killah & Raekwon (both Wu Tank Clan), The-Dream..calling Good Music too mainstream is just ignorant. Most of these are either underground or conscious rappers. Ofcourse theres Jay Z (who is farking amazing btw), R Kelly, 2Chainz (She gotta big booty so i call her Big Booty :palm:

)

So far I like Clique a lot, To the World is good aswell. Other than those the others dont really stand out to me much (other than the already released singles), but i have a habit of liking songs more as i listen to them.

Only Clique is good.

Fck this, I want a new Watch The Throne

Posted: **Tue Sep 18, 2012 11:46 pm**

Im startin to like The One and the Morning too. Ofcourse New God Flow is the best.. funny how they are all produced by kanye west

And what is the point of DJ Khaled exactly? Apparently he didnt even produce Cold (Hit-boy), neither does he rap in it( Kanye)..but it says its his song..~,o''

He also took Wish You Would -_-

I hate DJ Khalid, he makes beats, sure, but he has to scream his name, say "WE DA BES" or some shit, and then give shoutouts to a list of like 50 people.

Hit Boy destroys Khalid, but you don't see him introducing himself in every song.

Posted: **Wed Sep 19, 2012 1:16 pm**

I'm really starting to like Jay-Z more and more, especially since Watch the Throne. his flow just insane

Feel the same. Although he's always been decent his flow used to be way to slow for me. Kanye was def a good influence.

Posted: **Wed Sep 19, 2012 4:29 pm**

He's decent? He's supposedly the master of flow...

I haven't really listened to him very much, but to say he's "decent" is an under-statement.

He used to be slow and boring but I guess that's his "signature" lazy flow. Guess that's why I don't really like Biggie. His (Jay's) rhyme schemes and flow definitively changed in Watch the Throne and Cruel Summer.

Posted: **Wed Sep 19, 2012 5:12 pm**

@ Skyve

You just summed up my thoughts, it's exactly why I don't like Biggie at all.

Check this one out, one of their best songs.

Posted: **Wed Sep 19, 2012 7:19 pm**

Its impossible not to like this song.

The way he turns this happy pop tune into a hit rap is just genius.

Also the lyrics... Damn.

Posted: **Wed Sep 19, 2012 8:30 pm**

^

really don't like his style. I listened to almost all his songs, only one I like is Spit Yo Shit.
