what does /mu/ think of joji?

"Im tumblr-core but I'm not tumblr-core" core

>>74182148
eh

minecraft birthday party core

shitty reddit tier meme core. That's the second thread today. Please stop shilling this guy.

>>74182148
Not really all that into his comedy, it used to give me slight funny feels and the dude is probably a great guy, but his comedy feels very stale to me.

His music is not to be taken seriously, I don't even think that he would actually have it received as some kind of actual piece of music.

>>74182265
what about his album Chloe Burbank, it's not really comedy music, just lofi hiphop

>>74182167
unironically a good explanation

he seems to want to be taken seriously but he just keeps releasing SoundCloud-tier shit and at this point there's nothing I can think but that it's all he has to offer. I wonder how long he'll keep it up because he's getting older after all.

Haven't heard it, but I would hope that a more serious undertaking like that would yield him some good artistic results and not just an album for his fangirls to jerk off to.

Seems like a cool guy to hang out with and isn't a horrible musician but goddamn do his jokes get old fast

>>74182265
>His music is not to be taken seriously

This is such bullshit. He clearly is trying to be genuinely creative in his music but any criticism of it gets the response of "well, it's just a joke XD"

He is trying to become a serious musician and will end up moving even further away from the Filthy Frank character universe.

seeing him belligerent on stage soured him for me, he's probably a better producer than he is a rapper and he's probably a better rapper than he is a person... this is a total backseat, nah trunk opinion tho

>>74182148
smart enough to not make absolute trash music, too retarded to make good music

>>74182390
yea. I started watching him a little over a year ago and must have stopped watching within the first three weeks. It was slightly amusing at first but it's just so goddamn boring and repetitive after a while.

>>74182408
and why do you think that? I sort of thought that at first but then he just proved that not to be the case time and time again.

>>74182148

it's overly self-aware

>>74182408
Look, it's not like music with jokes in it can't be serious.

I like Oughts latest album "Sun coming down", which is filled with lyrics that are pretty ridiculous and funny, but all of the filthy music that I've heard is just joke music, like Weird Al.

If he has serious music, link it to me and I'll listen to it when I'm off work.

I want him to release Chloe Burbank Volume 1 already.

I really, really like "Thom."

seems like most people in this thread haven't actually heard joji, but filthy frank/pink guy which is crazy different

>>74182595
Is this radiohead related?

>>74182603

What you said here is probably true, but holy shit does it sound like fucking cringe.

It's tantamount to saying that LaVeyan satanists don't actually believe in a literal Satan, it is true, but you sound like a dumb teenager while saying it.

Not in the least.

If I were to describe joji's style, in that song especially, it's lo-fi hip-hop. Ever heard Habor by tomppabeats? Joji's beats sound really similar.

>>74182659
the chorus is so fucking good though

that's kind of the problem that tyler had, he started off as a meme in a neo ICP and it took him forever to get taken seriously as an artist. he's still trying to lose the edgy teen tumblr image

>>74182627
wow okay i vehemently apologize for the wording of this post won't happen again officer edgelord

>>74182167
fpbp

id appreciate him a lot more if everyone who listens to him isn't a retarded faggot spewing filthy frank bullshit, but the opposite of that is worse when they are just like "gosh this is JOJI not filthy frank, let him do his music career without you ruining it"

but music wise i guess it's alright

>>74182764
i cringe at him now, honestly. his fan base has turned me off completely to any of his content, because all it does is remind me of all his dickriders and whiteknights

he literally ruined an entire genre

random lofi hiphop playlist on spotify tier

>>74182747
eh, not really. Goblin was unironically good.

>>74183093
Nope. It was all shock value that launched his career. Even Tyler himself would admit that.

>>74183437
Doesn't matter. Goblin was good.

>>74182148
Has potential to make genuinely decent music, but you can't blame him for making cuntloads of money for acting like a fucking tard. If he pushed the Chloe Burbank album I would find myself listening to it frequently - I really enjoy the lyrics to Thom

>>74183474
if you like shitty music, sure

he sounds like literally every other lo fi producer on bandcamp. only reason his generic music gets some attention is his yt fame. lesson learned kids

>become yt celebrity
>release generic music and it gets praised

>>74183474
Goblin was not good, it only had like four memorable songs.

Bastard was good.

>>74182148
he's the final boss of mediocre soundcloud producers

there is no difference from his low fi soundcloud rap and the literal thousands of other people like him. if anything he is on the lower tier of those people.

>>74184689
every album he's made has been good except Cherry Bomb

>>74182148

>>74182148
he's alright if you ignore the amount of underages who think he's "super epic and SAVAGE"

very generic lofi hip hop

>>74187597

that beat is the shit

>>74182148
His lyrics are the writings of a high school sophomore who just broke up with their gf for the first time. I really hate almost everything about his music, it was fine until he started demanding that people take him seriously. His lyrics aren't that emotional, they are just a cryptic way of saying "I miss you babe" but super indirectly so he can't be criticized for his shallow and bottom-tier lyricism.

He has 0 talent when it comes to instruments, all he makes are shitty beats on his laptop to basically weep over. There is nothing interesting about his music to me, just another low-fi soundcloud rapper, the only difference is that he already had a fanbase.
