uhhh...
at least he isn't paid for reviews like Pitchfork??

doesn't surprise me, he gave Skid Row a 4 because of the instruments being "out of synch" as if it was unintentional

Between the shattered fragments of existence that collapse and appear

Because they fuck you in the mind; boy, they fuck you all the time"

Hello, reddit!
>Album by a band / artist he does not like
>Low score
what a surprise
had it been a dg album it would have gotten an 8 at least
>>61555037
How is this relevant?
>>61555045
listen to fantastic damage its not really pandering to backpackers nor was he on company flow's first album
>>61555053
>>61555065
Third Side of Tape got an 8 I think
>>61555037

>>61555070
not so much pandering, more so defining I guess
def jux is like the seminal backpacker label though get wise to your history son
I like the music though
finally the melon is right
LUM is garbage
>>61554786
Lol last year Fantano gave everyone the green light to put Third Side of Tape on their aoty lists and now the same people are butthurt he doesn't like lum any more.
>>61555096
good one.
>>61555073
don't worry guys watch me rustle this trips jimmies.
*ahem*
Jai Paul sucks.
>>61555149
>>61555136
honestly third side of tape was like one of his weakest projects of last year and it was pretty annoyi g seeing people who hadn't even heard the rest of his music sucking its dick then ignoring trick dice and AO

those sucked also

i bet you look just like one of these cacks
Fantano got BTFO by Columns and panned the whole album.
>>61554786
It really seems like he has a fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of a lot of choices ugly made
OA was highly anticipated and he took the 6+ minute center-piece and had a text-to-speech reading of what was clearly the most central verse on the project. Somehow How Much a Dollar Cost, which is an actual played out story-trope, comes across as innovative, but somehow the lo-fi and warped sampling all over OA is supposed to be some anti-socialite's hipster horrorcore?
But Fantano didn't even listen to Ugly until Weeping Worm so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>61554786
SPOILERS
FUCK
>>61555215
>lol trick dice and OA are bad

Remind me why the opinion of someone who can be immediately noticed glossing over the actual inter-textual significance should have a respected opinion here? I think Fantano must have gotten sore after listening to Columns and IAPD a few times

None of this necessarily makes him /good/ though.
And tons of professional producers use FL Studio these days, DAWs don't really mean anything and don't have any inclination of skill.
>>61555031
>current year
>>61556034
>None of this necessarily makes him /good/ though.
Why would you not quote the part where he's specifically addressing Fatano's criticism that LUM sounds just like an edgy kid? He's not telling you to like it, he's telling you to address it on it's own terms.
>death grips fan
>complains about LUM being "le edgy"
>complains about cringe worthy lyrics
>gives TPAB a 10

this thread
>>61556034
>>61556091
Precisely. And beyond that, so WHAT if it were what you'd imagine some goth kid's diary sounded like? Does the context of ugly posting embarrassing childhood stories of loneliness while fucked up and then deleting them get lost somewhere along the line? How do songs like On GP (and I say this as a grips fan) become more significant than ugly musing about killing himself on hideous disfigurements? No matter how ugly feels about musical critique and comparison, he's engaging in an artistic form, which necessitates statements about the artist whether intentionally or not. Even when done through a caricature of a persona made up as a joke.

lmfao third side of tape got an 8 and your entire post is void just like that you fucking idiot
He gave james ferraro a 4 too because he didn't understand it. Why do you guys take him serious again?
>>61556639
he thought lum was just memeing at first. i guess he needs you to start off subtle.
>>61556677
what is the to understand about skidrow?
>>61554786
fuck off with your shitty Fantano threads, how I wish I could filter every one of these fucking threads
>>61556677
yea but he gave dean blunt a 8. both ferraro and LUM dropped weak releases

>but dean blunt is god.

for starters it turns pop music on it's head into a totally abrasive sound, colliding with different sounds into a collage of some of the most forward thinking music of last year. Easily his most conceptual and best work.
>>61556824
>it's bad on purpose!
Trenchant insight pal
>>61556566
Not all simply French or turn of the century, but notable: Eliot, Wilde, Blavatsky, Sade, Beckett, existentialists are really a free space all things considered.
You could arguably write up another list for sample sources and whatnot since ODAEDB is fairly explicit about his feelings regarding that. Hence the engine 143 outro
What the fuck
>>61556860
So he looked up some random quotes by philosophers, shoehorned them into his songs and now he's a genius with deep lyrics? LMAO
>>61556824
thats facking crazy yo
>>61556860
okay so you just admitted to making that up.
can't even show not one fucking example of his references
>>61555053
HE SAID THE REDDIT THING WOWEE
>>61556995
>and now he's a genius with deep lyrics
Who are you quoting?
What now LUM fangays?
ive enjoyed music more since i stopped watching the melon
I can't believe LUM paid Fantano to pan him.
>>61557267
chances this actually happened though
>>61557035
in ts eliot's the hollow men he quotes the end of the poem "this is the way the world ends"
not saying it makes ugly mane good, but if fantano ate up the shit that was TPAB he most definitely should have ate up this
>>61557306
Look at his smug fucking face, he knows what he did.
Even YouTube knows, just look at the id of the video.
its a 9/10 for sure
fuk u anthon
this made me visibly angry
the people calling this "edgy", "tumblr" or "hopsin inspired lyrics" or saying he took el-p flow are obviously trolling. stop responding to them
So aside from Cucktano what's the general consensus of this album, what are we looking at here boys?
Strawpoll or nah
lmao this nigga makes it sound like he fucking hates LUM as a person by the end.
>>61557765
almost everyone fucking loved it when it first dropped
check the archive if you don't believe me
Why is he making it seem like a negative that the dude just made some music for fun and it happened to become popular?. Why does he call him antisocial in a negative way so much when Death Grips are 200 times worse when it comes to that?
this review is all sorts of retarded and he didn't even mention Slugs what the fuck.
Why are there so many children on /mu/?
The naivety in this thread is harrowing.
> Everyones getting mad at the truth being told
>>61557765
thought it was trash at first but i keep coming back to it and after so many listens i can appreciate the overall tone and lyrics much more
>>61557901
also, it does have pacing issues (specifically in the middle) which stops it from becoming a great album
>>61557859
stop comparing dg to LUM thats how I knew you're underage
DG tours, thats not even antisocial
>>61557947
Antisocial != sociophobic.
>>61557947
I know you're underage because you're riding DG.
>>61557926
How does it have pacing issues and how is that a bad thing?
Can't wait till LUM pulls a lcd soon and charges another $200 for ultra #rare boxsets for another album
>>61557988
theres a lot of dead time where not much interesting is happening, ruins the flow of the album
>>61557859
If fantano doesn't understand the motivation behind something, the music just confuses him and he starts projecting that they're trying to trick him. He puts almost no effort into understanding if he doesn't get it the first time.
>>61558062
probably the result of him reviewing so many records per year.
>>61558062
thats not true. he gave sophie's produce a 8
just face the fact this album isn't good.
if you like it great for you. it's his opinion
>>61558094
I've seen him do it in plenty of reviews
>>61558083
Sure but his misunderstanding can come from something like not reading the lyrics
>>61558149
*reading into
>>61557343
>JEW
kek
>>61558190
No, like actually not reading the lyrics. The example that comes to mind is when he reviewed Duality, he was like "why is he talking about smelling virgins". Gee I don't know. Maybe because the lines right after that talk about virgin sacrifice. He's pretty much retarded if he doesn't do research
It's ok I still like it even if he doesn't c:
>>61558261
> He's pretty much retarded if he doesn't do research
Who isn't?
>watch?v=JEWru_PBRoc
>JEW
hmm, ok den
Both this and tape are a 6/10 at most and babbys first experimental hip/hop plunderphonics
>>61558342
Regular people don't need to research to understand the motivation behind a band unlike fantano
"Forcefed myself with blow but now i settle for sedatives
No longer in the street, I belong in the crevices.
Positively negative. Popular I've never been. Hard to be a person when you lack the metal requistes.
Emotionally deficit. Consumed with all the wretchedness. Not optimist or pessimist.
My politics are in Exodus. Spouting countless fountains out while drowning in the brine.
My life's the foulest algorithm science can't define.
They trap you in these systems that are phallic in design, because they fuck you in the mind, boy.
They fuck you all the time."
5/10
"YA'LL NIGGAS BOO BOO."
"THIS DICK AIN'T FREE."
"I GOT A BONER PIC."
10/10
NICE MEME FANTANO
Why do you cuck faggots listen to an artist called "lil ugly mane" ?
>>61558426
Are you the same guy who posted it on youtube?
I screenshotted it, funny stuff anon, funny stuff.
>>61558455
> artist name = artist quality
flawless logic.
Reminder that he gave Macklemore's album and MMLP2 a 7.
How the fuck can you think Kendrick's lyrics on To Pimp A Butterfly are 10/10 and Ugly's are shitty goth-diary-core? Jesus fucking Christ Fagtano.
Also, loving the double standard going on between Ugly and Death Grips (I love both, by the way), where he loves a lyric like "I LIKE MUH IPOD MAW DEN FUH KING" but hates a lyric like "sex has never given me an ounce of satisfaction".
And not even a mention of Grave Within A Grave? The fuck is that?
>>61558062
this is the worst thing about him. dude can't think critically about art at all, all he ever makes are surface level observations
It's probably why he thinks TPAB is super complex and deep, because that album openly explains it's entire narrative and message at the end in a way that any idiot can understand on the first listen
>>61558485
holy shit is this true
i'm kind of a poptimist fag but macklemore is still bottom of the barrel shit
>>61558480
yeh i am. thanks dude if you aren't being sarcastic
>>61558426

>>61558518
Lyrics are not a separate entity from the music. They're a part of it.
>>61558495
Fantano is a white guilt cuck
Black rappers = deep
White rappers = piveleged
Prove me wrong
>>61558511
ahahaha relax mate, its not bait, I actually found it funny mate.
Do you mind if I use it against my kendrick dick-riding friends who use Fantano as their justification?

definitely man, spread it around as much you want

I know that, ride takes on different characters all the time.
but I dislike why LUM fans are dragging dg into this. OA was personal and about himself
where as dg roleplays
>>61558981
>implying that it matters
>>61558981
naw man, dgs more about being completely raw and exposing your own id. not about characters and shit

dude stop memeing I love james ferraro
but hi-fi wannabe keith sweat james is terrible. nyc,hell was better than skid row

im being serious, you should be posting this under his videos. he said he's learning how to review better as he goes along in an interview and tries to avoid threads about him b/c its distracting.
he might act like an ass but maybe you can get through to him. more likely to be read on youtube. i hate lum btw but i thought i should try to help anyway.
what are the all time worst reviews from fantano?
>>61559704

someone else post my one (>>61558495), already posted huge comment under video
>>61559704
All of them
when you look at anthonys thumbnails these days you can usually tell if an album is a 6/10 or less.
>>61559325
More like what were my least favorite tracks: Opposite Lanes, Slugs, and Leonard's Lake. Everything else I thought was great, hard to even pick favorites.
>>61557808
A lot of people hated it, I listened to it ASAP and posted in the first threads. I love it, but Its pretty polarizing.
>>61560084
man u trippin, those were three of the best tracks boi
