Opinion: RTJ is extremely cheesy.

>>70029587
>cheesy

Fact: OP is incredibly retarded.

Yes, but they do their thing extremely well so it works out for them

Anybody who denies it is in denial or just stupid

Not half as cheesy as any of the metal bands /mu/ is a fan of.

that first one is a struggle to get through

Yeah but it's a real good cheese like pepperjack

I like it that their songs switch between cheesy stuff to something like that Christmas Miracle track that's at the end of that first one which is kinda serious and in a way kinda poignant as well.

>>70030171
Idk I just thought the lyrics were really cheesy. "Put your hands in their pockets so they can get sliced."

You're right
>white boy on the beat hurrr
>yeah we dgaf about race no we kings

listening too: https://youtu.be/G-S9mtYowPY

>run backwards through a field of dicks

I've never cringed harder at a song until I heard that and I can't believe most publications praised and mentioned this line as a highlight of RTJ2.

Their themes, particularly political are always a self-righteous and blue-pilled cringe fest. I wouldn't really expect much else from a New York Jew and a fat nigger that endorsed Bernie "can still win and here's how" Sanders

Yeah, by today's standards they're pretty good though. RTJ 1 was great, second was alright, and I'm not a fan of the third.
>>70031341
I feel like R.A.P Music was good, it's just as political but not to a stereotypical point.

>>70029587
>>70031341

agreed. killer mike has "one year into a social science degree" tier political opinions. fucking embarrassing coming from a middle aged man

>>70031341
I forgot to mention the manner in which they try to have this image of faux-edginess when their pseudo-intellectual political themes and messages are not edgy at all, it's the status-quo in fact. They are also essentially preaching to the choir with their messages. It's all the same as most other (((conscious))) hip-hop, just with some more considerably interesting production.

>(You)

where is your argument telling him why he's wrong?

>>70031341
>blue pilled
Mike's verse on the final track in the first RTJ was about how his mother chose not to get him aborted when everyone around her was telling her to, using her as an example of not selling out in life. What the hell are you talking about?

>>70031512
there's no need for an argument or for him to be wrong. politics are off-topic on a music board, so telling that guy to go to the right board to discuss politics is the proper reaction.

remember to keep posting quality high!

>>70031427
Adding onto this, I would much rather listen to kill whitey extreme left Antifa stuff. At least it is somewhat edgy and exciting, not the equivalent of reading r/Bernie4President, Shawn King's twitter account and occupy democrats in music form.

>>70031524
Okay so the meaning of the song has significance. For sure. But as far as the imagery goes, it's fucking cancer.

>>70031576
What imagery are you talking about?

>Skrillex's earlier songs are great
>/mu/ has shit taste in music
>concious hip hop can fuck off

>>70031626
From First to Last isn't that bad.

>>70029587
when will they finally stop ripping themselves off and start creating something different?

>>70031667
Gonna tell you again. Fuck off back to /pol/, you knuckle-dragging worthless memeing piece of shit.

>>70031612
A lot of the analogies and stuff that i picked up on are ridiculous.

>>70031667
Adding onto this, anti-abortion is seriously just a pussy level blue-pill milk-toast cuckservative position and strong advocates on either side are retarded because there are so many more important issues like immigration and demographics.

>>70031626
>>70031703

is there a single board /pol/ hasn't tainted? One of the obscure boards has to be free of this shit

>>70031738
Hahaha have a crywank you fucking nerd. I have every right to be on this board and have probably been on /mu/ for far longer than you.

>>70031778
/a/ and most other boards that have mods that regularly frequent the board. Small boards as well like /po/, /asp/, /out/, /3/, etc of course.

Really, if it's even moderately high in traffic, /pol/cucks have shat it up. The reddit infestation from their board is drawn to popular boards.

>>70031778
We're going to make /mu/ great again tbqh it's been shit since 2014.

>>70031802
No, it's been shit since 2010 when odd future and MBDTF hype turned this board into a haven for nu-males that overrate mediocre rap music

>>70031745
Most of the non-serious stuff on RTJ is meant to be stupidly ridiculous and overthetop. It's Mike and El-P's fun, do whatever the fuck project rather than say...El-P's usual stuff which is intricate production work combined with a very syncopated approach to rapping in relation to the beat, or Mike's usual stuff which has his aggressive machinegun flow.

>>70031929
Ok, but when they do get serious it comes off as very juvenile and cringe inducing

All hip hop is cheesy.

>>70031949
Like...?

>>70031949
Truly.

>>70032059
yeah i really don't care enough to dig through the lyrics of an artist i don't even like. basically every time they stop boasting about their rapping superiority and joking about physically assaulting "fuckboys" and venture into neo-progressive shite

>>70032169
Another good point. Couldn't put it into words.

>>70032169
Like...? Not even asking for lyrics, song names, themes attached to them, etc. I wouldn't think a guy, who has a line shitting on Planned Parenthood, was among the first to try to move the talk to questioning police brutality rather than "muh racists!" before BLM and msm made it about racism, is really about that neo-progressive life.

>>70032261
You're the only one still dragging on about politics.

>>70032287
You brought them up first as your main point for finding them cringe. I just want an elaboration or an exact example.

I was a huge fan of RTJ when I was 23 and thought it was so edgy and cool.

>>70032313
I never brought up politics. I gave my opinion on an album and somebody else stepped in about them being pro Bernie and shit. I'm hella liberal but that isn't relevant.

>>70032352
Okay. Still wanna know what it is that's cringe inducing. Like an example. I'll be honest, I am less interested in this for the sake of defending RTJ and more interested in the idea that at least to me that the concept of people finding something cringe, lame, or cheesy in music often stems more from the aesthetic than the music itself.

>>70029587
suck my fucking dick nigga, you probably listen to ab-soul and eminem all day

>>70032453
I literally just told you. Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of electronic in general. And their comparisons and lyrics were weird. It makes new cringe. What else explanation do I need to give to you?

>>70032507
I was hoping for something with a bit more depth, but I guess I got what I wanted.

>>70031903
prior to 2010 this board was filled with cheetos-stained fingered neckbeards and nu-males that almost exclusively discussed meal, dadrock and anime and video-game osts it was far shitter back then cunt

>>70029587
maybe but it's fun so who cares

I think they're pretty self-aware with their corny lyrics and are usually purposely bad and done for laughs like >>70031341 but shit like El-P saying "notice me, senpai" is just plain bad.

To me "run backwards through a field of dicks" is goofy/cheesy in a good way. Its dumb funny. Its the political shit that is just 2cringe4me

I'm listening to RTJ3 for the first time. I enjoyed RTJ2, still go back to it sometimes.

Production seems much more interesting on this one! It's good so far
