Others explain how it isn't actually perfect
>>72959003
it's not a Big L album
>>72959003
There aren't enough Puff Daddy backing vocals
>>72959003
Biggie is outshined by his contemporaries in lyrical meaning and production. Also the goddamn skits can frig off.

>two minute long BBBM sex skit

Rap albums can't be perfect.
>>72959082
Lily, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts goes on for like a minute too long.
>>72959993
Too many half interlude half songs like close to you and Solo reprise
>>72960041
>Edgiest lyrics imaginable in a hip hop album
I take it that this is the only hip hop album you've listened to.
>>72960085
This. Rap can't compete with the rest of music as a whole. Rap is in its own little normie world. It can be good by rap standards, but not compared to literally any other genre.

>>72960127
>wah I'm ready to die
>It's even worse than the shitty torture skit in 36 chambers or early eminem

it's comparable to Tyler the Creator and is listened to by the same demographic plus nostalgiafaggots
I used to listen to plenty of hip hop btw favs include digable planets and grandmaster flash
>>72959254
Choked on a bagel just now thanks anon
>>72960147
>half of the songs have rapping
Everyone is posting albums, but nobody is commenting. I won't comment either.
>>72960207
Except he wasn't suicidal because le depression meme, like Tyler the Creator-type rappers are. The idea is that life in da hood is shit and he wants to die so he shoots himself at the end of the album, and it happened to tie in well with his next album where he actually does die irl and his second album starts out in the "afterlife" with the opening skit. That's why it works.
And he brings wanting to die up in like two songs on the whole album.
>>72960297
damn...
>>72960102
nobody can dispute this
>>72960400
It's true, it is unironically one of the best post rock albums to date and the band is untouchable by others
>>72960207
>That Torture Skit
>Shitty
probably one of the best hip hop skits of all time,
you're kind of right about the biggie album, it's chock full of pointless shock lyrics and all the skits are trash, plus the og versions of most of the songs were usually much better. The production is too polished for his style
>>72960102
It's boring lol
>>72960224
>he thinks this makes it a rap album
>>72960285
not enough brown
>>72960731
>rap album
>>72959254
UNDERRATED POST
>>72960753
But its the most brown of all their albums. Unless you count demos and the tapes they made in high school. Those are all brown as fuck. The Pod demos especially.
>>72960761
>album
>>72960102
Inferior to F#A#
>>72959003
The song with the girl moaning breaks the mood for me, I also don't like skits (the intro) and Puff talking in Suicidal Thoughts (song would be amazing without him).
Almost perfect album though.
>>72960778
>you
>>72959003
Because of these dubs
>>72960797
Femme Fatale is one of the blandest things ever.
>>72961232

Not even trying to meme here

>>72959003
>>72961440
The instrumental adds nothing to the mixtape
>>72962416
Literally no one wants to hear a baby crying.
>>72961252
>>72961232
How can one samefag this hard
>>72961440
good songs, weighed down by instrumental interludes that have no right to be there
>>72962462
simplistic compared to art rock, complex compared to britpop. It's just a stepping stone.
>>72960102
The album is too safe, it favors tried and true shoegaze over a risky and experimental sound, which is why it will always be a worse version of He Has Left Us Alone...
>>72960105
>hating on close to you and solo reprise
>>72959003

>>72962466
10/10
>>72960102
The Arco AMPM bit adds nothing to the album.
>>72959003
Unbelievable didn't have to be there.
>>72962831
Can't dispute this, absolutely incredible and boundary pushing instrumentals as well as a great performance by Ride
>>72962831
It should've been shorter.
>>72962928
All the songs sound the same, and Stan Getz playing is... questionable.
>>72963020
>>72959003
Queue the "generic dinosaur shit" arguments. Don't care. Love it.
>>72963100
Nope, you're actually right on this one
>>72962831
The first half of big dipper is shit.
>>72963568
The solos in Breadcrumb Trail and Washer betray any sense of emotion the songs otherwise emanate.
>>72963618
I can see what you mean by the one in Washer, but I still love it. Breadcrumb trail though, that solo happens in the most intense part of the song when the other instruments are falling around it and the transition back into the end of the song is gorgeous
>>72963618
this bait is too strong even for me...
>>72963638
>the transition back into the end of the song is gorgeous
Absolutely. I can still remember when I first heard it, waiting for the bus three and a half years ago. Absolutely sublime. But the solo itself is just wankery that I feel didn't have a place in that song.
>>72963640
No bait. Spiderland has been in my top ten for years. You can dislike aspects of things you love, man.
>>72962462
All I Need is a bit lackluster, the instrumental doesn't really fit the first part of the album and the melody is somewhat annoying
The drums on Reckoner are waaaaaaaaaay too loud
House of Cards isn't as good as the rest of the album but goes on far too long
>>72963656
After having the album be my favourite and listening to it hundreds of times, I tend to listen more to the second guitar and what it's doing, especially during these moments. Definitely what keeps the emotion up for Washer, figuring out how intricate the song is blew me away
>>72963676
>I tend to listen more to the second guitar and what it's doing, especially during these moments
That's funny, I do the same thing these days. Washer is an amazing song, don't mistake my words. But even when I first heard it the solo part wasn't particularly moving. I love everything else about it. Like I said the thing's been one of my favorites for years.
>>72962934
everyday world of bodies outshines every other track too much
>>72963675
Treefingers sucked and Idioteque is overrated.
Prove me wrong
>>72964430
Madlib is not even on his beat-making peak.
Life after death is much better
>>72964430
a lot of filler
nobody took the easiest rap album lol

He made it to make his record label fuck off. It shows.
I fucking dare you.

>>72964841
What's it add?
>>72964588
One Love is incredibly out of place.
But other than that, every line, every WORD even is gold.
>>72960285
i love you, anon
>>72964859
Post-apocalyptic vibe.
Plus the "if someone approaches offering xyz, they are in no way employed by or affiliated with this facility" is pretty bone-chilling.
>>72964895
>Post-apocalyptic vibe.
Where does this come from? It is also used to describe F#A#Infinity, but these albums are clearly about the present day. Not post-apocalyptica.
>"if someone approaches offering xyz, they are in no way employed by or affiliated with this facility" is pretty bone-chilling.
Sounds like something a real store would say if it had people loitering around claiming to work for the establishment.
>>72959003
A lot of the production is samey. This, along with more darker tracks than RtD which are offset by pop tracks, is why I prefer Life After Death.
>>72964869

>>72964910
The door opening and closing makes me think there's something keeping it ajar i.e. empty cans and debris, like the place had been looted for all its food and supplies.
But they're claiming to work for them so they can rob/attack you.
>>72965369
>The door opening and closing makes me think there's something keeping it ajar i.e. empty cans and debris, like the place had been looted for all its food and supplies.
Or people are walking in and out?

Well then you'd be able to hear footsteps.

i listened to this recently and I didn't see a single thing special with it. Biggie just talked about his problems in the ghetto and how he is such a bad ass now because of it. What makes this album better than any other gangsta hip-hop album?
>>72960102
Goes on for too long, pretty enjoyable listen during the first few tracks but eventually gets tired and old
>>72961232
Thinks it's something much bigger than it actually is, instrumentals not even trying to be creative, eventually Urie's voice gets annoying
>>72962462
Was expecting much more from them after a 4 year hiatus
>>72962695
unnecessary background noises
>>72962831
only the second half holds up
>>72963100
filler galore, but still has a lot of great tracks

Shit tier east coast rap with mediocre Scott Storch beats?? Wow sign me the fuck up!
been listening to this album for over a year and it still hasn't gotten old
>>72969086
a couple of songs could've been cut and it would've been a better record, some songs there is simply too much going on. Then again, I guess you can make the same statement about Beefheart's TMR
>>72965281
this, i love this album but this is my only complaint

>>72965722

I was on Facebook

do you mean at the climaxes of each song?
they're not intrusive at all - they just push it a bit harder when the songs been trying to get there for so long

Is there any logical reason why you would fucking say that post is underrated? Has anybody expressed any kind of dissatisfaction or criticism at all against it? Are you delusional? Are you reading replies that are nonexistant? Maybe you come from communities with voting systems, but there is literally no way that you could know what other people think of that post you just replied to here. Maybe it's psychological. Maybe it's your own post you're replying to, like a 12 year old fucktard liking his own facebook posts thinking his swelling autism is going unnoticed. Maybe your self esteem depends on you tricking yourself into thinking someone out there thinks your post is worth something. Or maybe you are just a retard, the worst kind of retard, the one who thinks he's smart, the one who thinks he's the only one to have gotten the joke, to have understood the post.
