Ice T on music albums vs singles. Old head babble or does he have a point?

[Complexion]

For sure. It was an event. Mainly because the difference between now and then is we went to the world whereas it comes to these kids.

Subtle, but huge as the implications are immense and why engineered loneliness under the guise of false connections is the way of the walk for the coming generations like religion was for those before it. Same girl, different dress.

partly old head barbershop babble because the market determined that albums werent really getting spun all the way thru and artists simply moved to support that. ringtones, radio, and simple market growth really kicked off the landscape of singles nowadays. you cant blame artists for that. isley brothers put out that huge single with beyonce, nobody listened to their album it was attached to.

on satellite radio they'll play whole albums thru. you try that on terrestrial radio and you probably get fined.

To come back to this thread...we don't get albums like this anymore. The entire album has a theme and a concept and plays out like a movie

 

[Heafcliffe]

I agree with him.

Let's be real, can you imagine these little pandemic Zoom diploma retards writing an entire album?

01. Da Intro (grandpa said it's a requirement)
02. I'm on Xanax
03. My p*ssy/Booty is better than hers
04. I bought weed legally to go with my Xanax
05. I buss 3D printed guns
06. Interlude (I'm taking a break to check my TikTok)
07. I've exhausted all my subject matter
08. Poppin' them Xannies again
09. Poppin' them Xannies Pt. 2
10. Poppin' them Xannies Remix
11. Can we go home now?
12. It's over, On God, FR FR, No Cap, Finally

It's old head babble, but he does have a point.
