Somebody bless me with a link

If you think this is a blessing

shyt isnt as bad as I thought. I see the song he got falcon punched to is on here.

Need a live version of that shyt

 

[DonKnock]

Multiple songs under 2 minutes, and no songs over 3 minutes



"So ARTISTIC and powerful" they'll say.

I say... just a lazy muhfukka. He been putting out throwaway songs that are like 1 minute for a year now. You would think his actual release would actually have full length songs on it

He taking business advice from Broward legend Stugotz

 

[JetFueledThoughts]

Be so uncomfortable with a young black male creating art that departs from the hypermasculine aesthetics on which you've build the foundation of your entire identity that you can only point and giggle at anyone secure enough have a listen and even enjoy music like a preteen meathead bully, brehs.

Lame ass devli's advocate post in hopes of some lames dapping it. But I see zero

Maybe. If so...maybe dip?

That's all good and well Ima definitely dip, but that doesn't stop someone from posting their opinion on this shyt, on a hip-hop messageboard.

I'm sure plenty of people like it and that's a bet, people should enjoy what they enjoy. But let's be real the percentage of people in XXX's fanbase that are avid hip-hop (before 2014) listeners is small, so stop trying to make sense of it, just let these teenagers get their angst off and STFU.

Jocelyn Flores is nice, but that's it brehs

I Love X but these rock songs is hot garbage juice. My favs is Jocelyn Flores & fukk Love. Overall, this album is wack as fukk, this shyt basically the spiritual succesor to Sppeding Bullet To Heaven. These nikkas wanna be Kurt but they fail to realize that Kurt had great music and production on them Nirvana albums. He was more than just a depressed nikka screaming over acoustic guitars

They don't have the songwriting skills for it. But that's okay. Hopefully they get better and improve. Gonna give it a listen in a little bit.

edit: this shyt isn't bad at all. most of it isn't rap at all, though. I kinda fukk it. he knows his lane and talent. the short songs have to stop, though. his fanbase is gonna eat this up.

I actually fukk with this. Gives me something to listen to on those dark cloudy/rainy days

 

[L. Deezy]

He makes me appreciate ODD Future more...

Thus guy is just too weird and emo for me..

 

[RasNas]

Personally I think it's quite refreshing in the mainstream however some songs are just way too corny & emo... Would say a solid 6.5/10 tho

did you like garrette's revenge or any of his slower shyt before this tape?

just curious because this tape nailed that. I was gonna be disappointed if it was gonna be a lot of dark rapping.

I guess my main issue is that it's too depressing, lol. I get that's his gimmick, but his song writing has to be expanded on more because he has a solid foundation. he needs to leave his corny antics and shytty hype songs alone.

since I saw the comparisons, i'm listening to speedin' bullet 2 heaven right now. can't lie. i'm liking 17 more.

I got Ka, Earl and cudi for that

 

[YouMadd?]

Album is pretty terrible... Trippie Redd was the only redeeming thing... Hypewave will die down soon...

Top 2 album on iTunes
