Is The Powers That B a kanye diss? The intro sounds like a Yeezus track, particularily similar to I Am A God and Send it up, along with the Kanyesque flow, then all the stuff like IM ON THIS SHIT YOURE NOT and IM NOT ACTING LIKE LIKE IT oR NAWT , implying kanye jacked his style but isnt a crazy fucking hobo nigga? share your thoughts and memes /mu/
where do you people keep drawing these conclusions from
>>64496113
nigga u dumb
>>64496113
Back to posting your memes on social media you fucking faggot
I suspect 100% of the cancer part of the fanbase believes in this Kanye shit
>>64496161
Yeezus was very death grips influenced and this was DGs following album. Ye caught some flack for "taking" elements of their sound
>>64496229
What memes are you referring to, you cunt?
>>64496113
Who the fuck cares
>>64496436
Yeezus was influenced by Chicago Industrial and Electro due to Daft Punk producing it fuck off
>>64496553
>Chicago Industrial
Not a thing
>>64496436
Death Grips didn't invent industrial rap/sound. That blazing, dark shit was around since forever. You don't see anyone saying Kanye jacked Prodigy. Stop going for this DG meme.
>>64496553
>chicago industrial
dont you mean chicago house?
>>64496553
Do you seriously think it's merely a coincidence that Kanye made an industrial hip hop album a couple of years after Death Grips made industrial hip hop trendy?
>>64496616
oh fuck off prodigy aint been relevant for years
the timing of yeezus and the whole no album cover rebel bullshit is clearly influenced by dg
>>64496630
>a couple of years
try a couple of months
>>64496681
I'm not saying Yeezus isn't influenced by DG it clearly is. But it isn't jacking his style when they didn't invent that genre . You can't say that anyone from now on who does industrial sound is biting Death Grips.
That scream in Birds ( I got higher, I got fake ) seems like a Ye reference
>>64496723
Oh yeah, I forgot that Kanye began working on Yeezus in 2012. Anyway, that just makes it even more likely that Kanye was influenced by them. He probably saw them blowing up and knew that industrial hip hop would become a trend.
>>64496778
i mean I would give him credit if he gave some kind of shout out to DG, or like let them open for him on his Yeezus tour or something, but he pretty much passed Yeezus off as "yup this was all my idea" so fuck him he aped it
>>64496630
How did DG make industrial hiphop trendy? They're the only one and they have a cult fanbase of neckbeards.
>>64496867
>They're the only one

As much as I think Kanye is kind of biting DG with Yeezus, both artists are heavily influenced by B L A C K I E, suspiciously so.

>>64497064
B L A C K I E lives with his mom
>>64496436
Yeezus was influenced by European fashion show culture. The only people who ever drew the comparison to DG is /mu/ because we were riding MC Rides dick particularly hard when Yeezus came out. Yeezus is electronic and industrial sure but Death Grips didn't invent that. None of the songs really attempt to sound like Death Grips outside of New Slaves and I Am a God.
>>64497107
And? He's had DG's style and sound since like 05 when he was 15 or something. I love DG way more than I like B L A C K I E but I acknowledge he definitely had some influence on them
Holy memerap
I like DG and I don't really care too much about Kanye but this is cancer
>>64496436
>>64497113
On top of that, the stand out songs on the album (Blood on the Leaves, Hold my Liquor, Send it Up, Bound 2) have absolutely nothing in common with Death Grips.
>>64497113
>None of the songs really attempt to sound like Death Grips outside of New Slaves and I Am a God.
>what is on sight
>what is send it up
>what is im in it
>what is guilt trip
god that album is so fucking bad
>>64497179
Those are industrial and electronic but they sound nothing like DG. They don't own the entire genre.
>>64497036
>>64497039
>lmao DG drones really think this
>>64497197
>but they sound nothing like DG
yeah you're right
they sound like a bad attempt to sound like DG
>>64497197
It's not the music they tried to copy. It's the aesthetic.
you realize kanye had nothing to do with the production on yeezus right?
hudson mohawke,evian christ,arca are responsible for that sound
>>64497203
>Kanye drones really think otherwise
>>64497214
The aesthetic is industrial. The way Kanye approached it isn't even similar to how Death Grips approaches it though. Death Grips is very busy, very spastic, and very harsh. Kanye went for a smoother, more methodical style. It's sharp and industrial yes, but the idea that he was trying to be Death Grips is absurd. If you take a look at the fashion shows he was going to at the time (in 2013 that was basically his life), the aesthetic and vibe of the album fits that culture way more.
>>64497080
Yeezus was inspired by the aesthetics of fashion designers of the likes of Rick Owens. Kanye's production team said they were aware of Death Grips but the album wasn't inspired by them it was inspired acid house and electro.
>>64497179
But anon, those are all good tracks.
I'm not even hating on DG but Yeezus is better than anything they've ever done, so I dont even care if it was influenced by them or not
>>64497277
>Kanye's production team said they were aware of Death Grips but the album wasn't inspired by them
they're lying
>>64497278
>But anon, those are all good tracks.

Please go die in a hole
>>64497301
Why would they lie?
>>64497328
yeah weve gone over it, it doesn't sound like DG
it sounds like a failed attempt to sound like DG
>>64497343
>anything that sounds slightly
>slightly
try, like, 85% like them
Wow DG must have their heads up their asses if they think Kanye even so much as knows who they are
If they think that, that pretty much confirms they read /mu/ at least. Hey guys!
>>64497388
did you even listen to yeezus
>>64497301
How does it feel being a contrarian faggot?
>>64497348
This. Why would somebody like Kanye, who's never been secretive about who he was influenced by, suddenly decide not to give any credit to Death Grips despite being influenced by them? Must be a goddamn conspiracy, I tell you
people compare YEEZUS to DG stuff because they are jealous, they realize that DG can't never make a better album.
DG FANS ARE JUST MAD BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT FINALLY SOCIETY WOULD LIKE THEM FOR THEIR SHITTY MEME BAND
BUT SINCE KANYE NEVER CONFIRMED DG WAS GOOD
THEY COME HERE AND SHITPOST FOR PITY POINTS

Well, I see where you're coming from. This reminds me of a silly anecdote: When I masturbate I rarely do so when my penis is fully erect. I prefer to do it when it's a combination of semi-rigid, yet still a firm enough engorged mass that is easy to manipulate. You really have to choke down on the shaft, I mean, to a near agonizing degree where your tip has begun to turn red and it seizures up and down like it is starving for oxygen and desperately gulping for a breath.
Sometimes if I overshoot my mark I will beat my dick against my desk, since it's a hard surface and tends to always work out. I keep slapping my dick until it reaches a preferable firmness that I can work with.
I enjoy stroking my dick and watching the tip flop back so I can witness my pulsating urethra mouth to me how bad it wants me to punish it further. "Please finger fuck me ", it moans. I'm not really into that type of thing, unless it was forcibly done to me, like, I was on all fours and someone was milking me from behind with latex gloves. I digress.
When I am about to cum I use my free hand and knuckle down on my tip and begin to rock my knuckles back and forth. It feels incredible. I eventually reach the point where I can no longer hold back and my pleasure has built to such a degree that I would only be senselessly teasing myself if I didn't release it.
I spray my thick pungent load all over a carefully placed sheet of printer paper. After I have squeezed out every last drop I carefully roll the piece of paper into a funnel, taking great care not to spill a drop. I then proceed to place the end into my mouth and drink my own cum.
By this time I have become greatly ashamed of my behavior and have crawled into bed debating whether or not I should kill myself.

Every song of from Yeezus is better than anything MemeGrips ever done.
People think that it's avant-garde to blurt random clauses and shout like retarded dog to edgy beats.
Yeezus sounds like an upgrade to their music, the instrumentals are more complete, it's filthier where it should be and beautiful on the moments. While MemeGrips just slap around same shit for 3 minutes on every song.
>>64497618
this so much holy fuck

This article is about how he might of ripped off Saul Williams, it mentions Death Grips once, in one sentence.

that's not the point im trying to make and u know it
>>64497660
The day they make one complete song like "I'm In It" that's the day they will become more relevant to anyone other than neckbeards and Memethony Gripstano.
They've been going at it for more than 6 years now, you think that they wouldn't make more noise if they were trully that good. Each of their albums is a hit or miss even for hipsters.

>>64497856
poo in the loo?
If anything DG should be counting their lucky stars that Ye moved on from the Yeezus sound. Instead of using Yeezus as a blueprint on how they should be making their music, instead they carry a grudge try to drag Ye down.
Childish. Ungrateful.

It's funny because there was almost no marketing for Yeezus, they reliad on the fans to spread the word. Kinda like some other band that's frequently mentioned in this thread

>>64497912
DG don't owe Kanye West one fucking iota of thanks
for anything
fuck off
Kanye went in and set the benchmark for how it should be done with Yeezus. Why do you think since 2013 anything from DG didn't recieve high praise as The Money Store.
Kanye now moved on, and fat neckbeard basement dwellers are still salty about him completely dominating DG on their own turf.
>>64498038
>Kanye went in and set the benchmark for how it should be done with Yeezus.
is that why the album fucking bombed
This board needs to definitvely come to terms with the fact DG has made numerous disses to Kanye. I'm sick of all these people being in denial about this. it's the worst. This must be how 9/11 truthers feel
>>64498058
>topped the Billboard chart
>went platinum
>bombed
Yeah, it didn't sell nearly as much as his previous albums (or albums by the big pop stars nowadays) but he's clearly not about sales anymore, just look at TLOP's release. Still, it turned a profit for sure, it hardly 'bombed' in any sense of the word
>>64498082
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
>>64498101
>topped the Billboard chart

>implying anyone bothers to revisit Yeezus any more

>Kanye's next album has a meme title
yeezus was the beginning of the end unless kanye realigns his priorities
>Kanye makes a song "Niggas in Paris"
>Death Grips makes an album "Niggas on the Moon"
>Kanye says "I'm doing 500, im outta control now" and "I keep it 300, like the Romans
300 bitches, where the Trojans?"
>Ride says "You call this speeding turn the door off" also "Meet you in our next fetus Romulus and Remus"
>Also that same Kanye West song is called "Black Skinhead"
>Ride says "skinhead skinhead inna dublin" on inanimate sensation
>Kanye West says "I'm aware I'm a wolf, as soon as the moon hits"
>This also further alludes to the "Niggas on the moon" album title as well as the fact that Death Grips are known to be active around lunar events
>>64498058
> Over milion copies sold worldwide
> Universal acclaim by both critics and fans

If that's bombing, Meme Grips would kill for one of these bombs.

I'm sure they would, doesn't change the fact that those standards are well below what he set for himself with his earlier work, because not that many people really felt Yeezus
also all of that acclaim was fucking bought by his PR team

Death Grips did not invent industrial hip-hop.
Yeezus does not sound like Death Grips.
Death Grips have never dissed Kanye and if you think they did you are autistically reading into arbitrary details to draw conclusions that aren't even there.

yeah Death Grips often use soul samples, autotune, reggae, and acid house amirite?

but i kinda feel kanye embodies the state of the art in terms of rap and music production.
death grips dis that on the regular.
I don't really know if Kanye copied DG and DG dissed Kanye. Honestly I would not be surprised if Kanye stole shit after what happened with him and AFX. Either way this is probably the worst thread I have read in a while, reminds me of /b/. 122 post 33 posters, hmmmm.
>>64499327
>after what happened with him and AFX
AFX was totally bullshitting in that interview, he loves to lie in interviews.
>>64496976
chicago house, acid house, dancehall, soul, drill. that's literally it. The house influence even translates into Pablo in the form of Fade, and into some of his productions post yeezus like sanctified with rozay. I dunno where you armchair critics get "industrial influence" have you guys never heard of acid house?
Another question is why discuss music you dont know anything about?
>>64497418
everything DG did, even Fashion Week, is better than Yeezus

You people can't seriously think Kanye west is good. Y'all still in high school right?
goddammit you assholes im not saying i think kanye stole their style, but that was a meme going around and for a while it was part of /mu/'s take on the album. Im saying ride might be addressing that. Fantano compared yeezus to grips in a video which got half a million views which might have influenced peoples tendency to compare the two. Just wondering if maybe you guys think this could be Ride lashing back. You guys are keyboard warrior beta males that love to get aggressive cause it makes you feel empowered.

Yeezus sounds a lot like NLDW. Granted, Yeezus is way better produced and mastered but the similarities are there. Come up and get me especially sounds a lot like On Sight. DG were getting a lot of buzz around the surprise release of NDLW and were being praised for their sound.
>implying Kanye himself stole from DG
You know it was probably his team who realized industrial was bubbling and guided him towards that sound. After reading what happened to RDJ i wouldn't be surprised if that hack hires a team to fish out and steal all kinds of ideas
>>64500976
To answer your question, it's not so much a diss as it is Death Grips trying to leech off of Yeezy Season. It's cute, but it doesn't really work well.

>>64502011
Wrong. Death Grips just has a bunch of edgy fans that won't admit that Kanye is good. Kanye has a lot of fans who thinks he's GOAT. I thoroughly enjoy both.
>>64502403
they're noise-hop
there's a pretty big difference
>>64502462
Kanye is for children with terrible taste. Death Grips are for autistic children, but damn if it doesn't get me hype as fuck during workouts
