we need to get Frownland higher. Or Ella Guru

How the fuck did this get to 10 at Genius?
I've never seen a nigga interested or even aware on the genre itself

>MY SMILE IS STUCK

lul

Was Frownland featured or sampled in anything recently? This makes zero sense

What makes even less sense is that its not even available to stream anywhwre.

>>71624131
I thought this was fake. wtf?

Some normie bastion with a relatively large platform clearly referenced it or otherwise exposed it to their normie fanbase thereby prompting a lot of random people to suddenly look it up because "le epic wacky fishface record"

>>71624518
Not true

Fantano did that almost three months ago and this didn't happen

>>71624131
No, it's definitely a glitch in the system. They've had a lot of problems with viewcounts before.

>>71624518
TMR is normie proof, they cant even bear it long enough to make memes about it

>>71624582
>implying normies are ones that make memes out of music albums

Did you just confuse /mu/ with normie-platforms?

>>71624587
I guess i should have said "enjoy memes about it" but cmon /mu/ is pretty normie

>>71624621
Wait, do people (normies) go to Genius primarily to read the lyrics or to primarily to read the interpretations of lyrics? Because the amount of shitty songs with mindless lyrics on that list would make the second option really confusing

>>71624600
>/mu/ is pretty normie
So then what's non-normie?

>>71624638
Mostly to read the lyrics, but a lot also to read the interpretations. The annotations can be pretty good sometimes. It's not always just interpreting the line's meaning explicitly. Also, they have a lot of verified lyrics and annotations (i.e. the artists themselves explaining their lyrics.)

WE WUZ NORMIES AND SHIET

>>71624638
they go for both

Genius started out just to interpret rap lyrics (second option), but as they grew and then covered all genres they've grown into the first option as well.

they don't just do music, they do news articles and documents too

>>71624652
Yeah, a good example is the new Fleet Foxes song. No one except for the frontman himself could have interpreted the song correctly.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that.

for two sentences, this is a great psychoanalytic interpretation of a young thug line

>>71624916
Can someone explain to me this album lyrically? Does it have meaning? Is there any consensus?

not until you give it one

Like I'm reading this interpretation mentioned here >>71624916 and I'm not understanding how they got that from the lyrics. How the fuck is Europe "Frownland"?

>>71624974
This one is actually correct though

nvm i'm retarded

>>71624131
The only possible explanation I can think of is someone from here with hyperautism has forced this to the top 10 through repeatedly looking at the page. I can't think any other reason a Beefheart song with no annotations and only 6 contributors could be this high up.

they also provide context. lots of references in songs and shit that you won't know just by listening to it, especially if it's older. not gonna understand every cultural reference of a song from the 80s if i was born in the 90s, for instance, ya feel?

>>71624131
>It's real
What the fuck how

>>71624621
Who the fuck makes their artist name "Kyle". Why feature Lil Yachty. Fuck you.

Didn't know there was a new Frank Ocean single, how is it?

What site is this from?

>>71627996
Found it, its from Genius.

>>71624638
I go to Genius because it tends to have the most accurate lyrics
Also fuck you its not a normie/pleb thing, its actually a good site

The first thing that pops up in Google when you type in "tro" is trout mask replica. This shit must have been referenced somewhere

is it weird if i dont know any song from the images posted
