Unpopular Opinions Thread

m-muh minimalistic masterpiece

>>69421296
I agree

It Was Written > Illmatic

your opinion isn't popular

J Cole is a fantastic producer. His best beats are 'Wet Dreamz' and 'Villuminati'

>>69421296
I also agree

>>69423084

that's kind of a popular opinion

Depeche Mode is up there with Yellow Magic Orchestra and Kraftwerk when it comes to pioneering electronic music.

>>69423209
it's funny because you are wrong

>>69423324
Well, the point IS to have an unpopular opinion..

I like his beats.

>>69421296
Opus just means a work.
Magnum Opus is what you meant.
His greatest work.

>>69423347
oh shit you right. sorry anon

>>69423209
this and that his beat on Cornrow Kenny's "HiiPower"

>>69423632
I was mostly counting his solo work since he doesn't USUALLY produce for other people.

>>69423680
Word.

I respect that... I'm a Cole fan tho.

>>69423740
I AM TOO! That's what I'm saying.

Hated his first album but Born Sinner and Forest Hills were great. Some of the best beats I've ever heard.

anyone who can't see this is an inbred who cannot detect true art and quality

>>69421296
was listening it today for the first time in 2 years

and bound 2 and blood on the leaves really struck a cord

>>69423209
shit's fucking dope

>>69421296
That's not an opinion, it's a fact.

>>69421296
Next level unpopular opinion: Guilt Trip is the best song on the album

>>69421296
>let's just copy Death Grips but without everything that makes Death Grips good

>>69425621
idk Guilt Trip is pretty fucking awesome so I don't think it's that outlandish of an opinion

>>69423761
what did ya'll think about his 2 new tracks

>>69425806
Liked it a lot. Really looking forward to the album.

>>69425694
This. Yeezus sounds like Kanye took the instrumentation from NLDW and the sampling style from Exmilitary and called it a day.

>>69425885
there are 2 MAYBE 3 songs that sound relatively close to Death Grips instrumentation and even then they aren't the pioneers of in your face electronic music. It's a baseless opinion

>>69421296
Agreed

I hate a huge debate with a friend cause he thought Graduation was his best and Yeezus or 808s his worst
Clearly Yeezus is his best and Graduation is his most bland (maybe not worst though)

>>69425621
it fucking is

>Unpopular Opinions

>>69423257
This is unpopular because it's stupid. It doesn't make sense as an unpopular opinion because everyone already thinks that! Kraftwerk are a joke and no one has heard of yellow gay orchestra. Everyone would say depeche mode are way more important in pioneering electronic music you cretinous moron boy.

>>69425694
it isn't close to treading on DG's themes of isolation, occultism, raw power, etc.
I'm more willing to wager that Yeezus is more conceptually similar to MBDTF than Death Grips

Mac Demarco's persona is annoying and gets in the way of his music

Although its a great album, Twin Fantasy doesn't deserve nearly the amount of praise it gets. Teens of Denial is better.

>>69425694
lol you don't really think this sounds like Death Grips son

you little weenie fanboys crack me up

>>69421296
The fact that it was the follow-up to Dark Fantasy is what makes it so great. I think those two albums will be the peak of Kanye's career

>>69426552
>huge debate
you sucked each others peckers you mean

>>69426835
pablo is better

PROVE ME WRONG SUCKA

The most unpopular opinion itt: TLOP is Kayne's best, though Yeezus is very close. What I've noticed is that MBDTF, Yeezus, and TLOP are somewhat of a trilogy that deal with surprisingly similar themes

Iggy Azalea is one of the best female rappers of all time. When you actually listen to songs on her album, like Walk the Line and Work, you can see she's actually got a much better flow and word play than most other females rn. Also a lot better than people like lil uzi and future..

>>69426798
True but his music is nothing special anyway

>>69426890
Pablo is the best but eerrryone know it fool!
Then MBDblahblah
Yeezus
College Dropout
Graduation
Late REGISTRATION

808's gets an Unmarked, it don't qualify as a ye album

>>69427093
I actually like his music a lot, they have a nice sound together.

>>69427115
Why you hating on 808's?

>>69427057
he said unpopular not "say something so random that you dont really believe but think it will annoy ppl"

pls homo, go away

>>69427142
Cus it's the worst shit anyone's every put on an album son n you know that

>>69427221
Now now, I agree with you MOSTLY...
But don't sleep on Paranoid and Robocop. Those songs are great.

>>69427194
I'm not even lying/baiting. I genuinely believe this, hence why I named two songs to back me up. A lot of rap fans seem to assume she's absolutely horrendous which is just not true at all, there's a reason why people like Nas and T.I supported her in her early years.

>>69427434
her ass is gross though.

>>69425806
Bretty good... I like how he called out Yatchy and Uzi... He spit pretty well on Everybody Dies

Also, as a Yeezy Stan, he hit the nail on the head with that Kanye verse... While Ye's shit is better than 95% of the trash out right now, his new shit is pretty weak compared to his older stuff (MBDTF).

Basically... A 5/10 Ye album is a 8/10 album from an average rapper

A$AP Rocky is one of the best rappers ever

Graduation is Ye's best album

>>69421296

Nope, that'd be 808's.

Lana Del Rey is one of the best modern pop artists

808s was pretty bad

>>69427633
Fag

>>69430080
this her ass is nice

>>69426864
It's not. Simply listening to the albums is all the proof you need.

>>69430102
this

Goth was the last great counter-culture music based movement and an amazing genre

>>69421296

The album version / remix of All is Full of Love is better than the video / original mix.

Come at me. :^)

>>69430102
Pablo is his best.

>>69431996
Have you listened to that Life of Paul? Is that Good?

>>69432008
it's too slow imo, but more coherent than the original. a lot of it is just extended samples.

Since five or six years ago, a lot of mainstream pop music has actually been brilliant artistically-speaking.

>>69431996
Agreed. Plebs will never understand.

808s is kanyes best album.
yeezus is my favourite though.

>>69431832
why is disintegration there?

>>69425621
This is 100% correct. It's not his opus though.

>>69421296
It may be his opus, but kanye as an artist is one disappointment after another. He is so close to greatness, but lyrically and thematically he cannot keep up with his own production values, i.e. even though his production is excellent, he lacks the ability to say anything of substance.

>>69432413
Because it's meh.

>>69432432
>>69432467
*opus magnum.

opus on its own just means work (hence classical songs are titled things like op.113).

>>69432509
but what makes it meh

the wall > the dark side of the moon

>>69432629
Waste of good production and effects for lacklustre instrumentals and vocals. Why listen to The Cure when Cocteau Twins exists?

>>69432691
Well, what about Pornography then?

>>69432756
Haven't bothered with their other work yet. I will eventually though.

>>69432787
>asks why people even bother listening to The Cure
>hasn't listened to their most highly lauded album

What the fuck man

>>69431832
Y dont u like dinosaur Jr

Brand new was the best music group of the 2000s

>>69432859
>Disintegration
>not their most highly lauded album
W E W
>>69432959
It sounds like Jimmy Eat World through noise rock production.

>>69432994
It's not. Pornography is. However I do prefer Disintegration myself.

"No."

MBDTF is the most average album I've heard in my life.

"Awaken, My Love!" is incredible

>minimalistic

>>69434511
That's not consensus unpopular opinion though at least not yet.

>>69431832
why liquid swords

The tour was for sure. Literally the GOAT hip hop tour.

Yeezus is def a top 2 Kanye album.

J Cole is great rapper. His album already looks lit as fuck, the production is great too. The vibe suits his style real well.

Wet Dreamz is probably my favourite from him in terms of production. Lyrically Lights please is my favourite song from him. As a guy who doesn't particularly listen to J cole often, I'm definitley excited for his album.

>>69434649
Uninteresting beats and delivery.

>>69427715
Not that guy you replied too, but I agree, I loved pablo and it's probably AOTY for me (along with Chance and probably for your eyes only) but of course it's not that great compared to his classics. But then again, when you've made albums that are close 10/10's it's near impossible to keep producing that sort of stuff, especially if you're a "creative genius" who needs to constantly keep thinking up weird and new shit to do on songs.

>>69434857
>J Cole is great rapper.
How is that unpopular? Cole is fire.

"lil whatevea, just another short bus rapper"

Classical is better than any other genre

>>69431832
Glad to know I'm not the only who thought blonde wasn't anything special.


My unpopular opinion: Nostalgia was better than channel orange or blonde. There were actual songs. It was new and fresh at the time.

>>69434936
oh sorry, i thought the thread meant unpopular opinions (for /mu/) I was under the impression everyone was still memeing j cole is trash

Side B of Remain In Light is better than side A. Not even trolling, Houses In Motion to Listening Wind is my favorite string of songs on the album.

>>69435142
Yeah, I don't even really hate it. It's just that; it's nothing special.

>>69435575
he's not trash he's just nothing special

Joey Badass shits on K-dot lyrically
