ITT: Rap for fedoras.
>>63228775
good album
>>63228863
Thanks!
>>63228775
Fair statement. Not saying its bad but it is pretentious as fuck
>>63228943
how is it pretentious? its about comic book characters
>>63228943
maybe the way people talk about it is but the record itself isn't. it's 2 guys getting stoned sampling old records talking about cartoons and whatever else. how is it pretentious at all?
>>63228775
Fedorap
It's a good album though
>>63228943
not pretentious but corny music for enlightened high schoolers. aka fedoracore
>>63228961
>>63228970
not him but when people are subjected to things outside of the norm and can't get into it, they call it pretentious as a way to convince themselves that it's not their fault. i would not be surprised if that poster liked kanye west and earl sweatshirt
aka itt: good rap albums
>>63228981
>for enlightened high schoolers.
have you ever listened to it? nothing about it is enlightening
>>63228993
This
They're the same people who think "hipsters" actually exist.
>>63228993
I dont like Kanye, and im neutral to negative torwards Earl.
Not everything outside the norm should be good.
Good hip hop concept albums should be down to earth. Listen to a Kool Keith album from Dr. Octagonecologyst to Elvis in Space. They surpass Madvillainy in every aspect.
>>63229013
no shit i mean enlightened by people who think they are enlightened because they discovered r/atheism and suddenly are better then all spiritual or religious people because they looked at some atheist memes.
>>63229095
I don't see how you can even compare a second-rate artist like Kool Keith to Earl, Kanye, or Madvillain. You got a classic case of the shit taste what a waste to think that you enjoy black elvis lost in space.
This thread is going places
>>63229121
If you love reddit atheism so much, then go to it. You're not even discussing music. R/atheism isn't even remotely relevant to this thread.
>>63229362
Have you even heard it?
Why do yo think Kanye, Earl and Madvillain are better than Kool Keith?
>>63228993
Earl Sweatshirt is really good, I don't know why it's so hard for /mu/ to admit it.
Madvillain is a really cool album, and just because autists call it "intelligent rap" or "artistic" or whatever other meaningless string of words that makes them look superior, that doesn't mean we can't still enjoy it.
(:
This whole thread is cancer.
>>63229095
what the hell are opinions
>this is what happens when /mu/ tries to actually have an earnest discussion
>>63229457
I like sweatshirt because he sounds a bit similar to DOOM for me.
>>63228993
>it's not a fedora album
>posts a fedora explanation why
All rap is for fedoras. You have to listen to it with a degree of ironic intellectual detachment; the music itself is just stolen bits of other songs and some guys preaching racial hatred.
>>63228775
If only fedoras had ears...
>>63229045
Except as a cultural grouping and phenomenon they do, it's just incredibly overused to describe anybody with vaguely obscure taste in anything
A better term would be corporate indie "counterculture"
Fedora rap
I like Madvillainy because I like the way it sounds, that simple
Piss off senpai
>>63229045
Im the person you're replying to and hipsters do exist
>>63229095
>Listen to a Kool Keith album from Dr. Octagonecologyst to Elvis in Space.
Already have and I agree that they're better than Madvillainy. You seem to not be into Madvillainy and there's nothing wrong with that, but to assert your opinion that it's shit or average as if it's fact is wrong.
>>63229121
Nice projection
>>63229457
Earl sweatshirt is not good.
>>63229447
For starters, they're all better producers than whatever man put together that album. I listened to about a minute of each track and the writing was not impressive in the slightest and the same drum sounds are used from track to track so there's that.
>>63229752
>Earl sweatshirt is not good
He's not good cause he's great :)
>>63229884
hes a contrarian just ignore
>>63229095
>Elvis in Space
That's not even the correct name of the album; some fan you are, retard.
>>63229457
earl is an angry and confused teenager who needs to chill the fuck out
>>63229121
you want to explain to me how the fuck you went from MF DOOM to r/atheism?
>>63229701
you shut your goddamn mouth. Aesop Rock is amazing.
>>63228775
All of it
>>63229121
What the actual fuck are you talking about? They're talking about fucking comic book characters.
The only people that are doing pretentious over-analyses of the album are you faggots claiming that other people are doing so.
>>63232474
Low quality shitpost
>>63228775
>>63232184
I'm proud to be a fan of these albums.
>>63229121
MF DOOM is muslim, not athiest album at all
>>63232184
Does fedora mean white people now?
>>63229884
>>63229362
please never talk about hip hop again
>>63229362
>second-rate artist like Kool Keith to Earl, Kanye
>second rate
tell me when has Earl done anything even as remotely ambitious as even Keith's shittier albums like Sex Style
>>63229701
this, may as well include literally every backpack rap album
>Anti-fedora rap
>>63234154
>MF DOOM is muslim
wut
>>63235681
>Metal-faced terrorist
You didn't guess earlier?
>>63228775
<<< This one
>>63235681
tribe called quest are muslims too
>>63235874
also Jedi Mind Tricks
what is up with that?
>>63234113
are u a terrorist
>>63229095
>Elvis In Space
>>63229884
kanye west is utter trash when it comes to be a musician. his drum patterns are below amateur level. it's absolutely evident that he is self taught and not very smart. his albums start to shine when other more talented people who actually studied the craft are involved, starting all the way back from jon brion.
>>63239007
Yep and that's why i can only enjoy Late registration out of his shitty discography. Sure Jesus walks and All falls down are good songs, but the rest of that album is snooze-worthy
>all these memevillainy fans getting the hurtbutts
>>63229701
>calling anything "fedora rap"
>>63229457
>Aesop Rock is amazing.
>Earl Sweatshirt is really good,
i want r.eddit to leave.
>>63228775
There isn't a single rapper alive that can write better than DOOM and Madlib is an amazing producer; also Bas sampled Madlib on Too High to Riot
>>63235758
lupe is one of the greatest artists of the 21st century, consider suicide kiddo
>>63239273
newfag
how come no one posted this yet
>>63239301
this
Madlib is 3rd best producer ever
Behind El-P and RZA of course
>>63239489
Lolwat, you serious? Bomb Squad and Prince Paul blow El-P and RZA out of the water.
>>63235758
This album is just amazing all over. Has to be the most underrated album in 2015. Lupe finally did something right after The Cool
>>63239536
bleh
>>63239670
it's actually one of the most overrated albums I can think of
>>63239782
is it even that overrated? it's just. there, being mediocre
>>63239896
yeah maybe the fans are just loud about it
definitely has too many 5/5s on RYM anyway, I'd give it 1.5/5 honestly it just offends me
>>63239959
any rappers in this thread?
if so follow my reply
