This reminds me of a time in highschool: my friend, who had gotten me super interested into music, told me to listen to "Kid A." I listened to it, predictably fell in love with it, and then wrote this long pseudo-intellectual-wank as an essay about how "Kid A" actually created IDM, or something nonsense like that. My friend predictably tore into me about how stupid I was, and that taught me the importance of knowing your shit. For every good year on the internet, there's always one bad day that makes you feel stupid & worthless. Today was one of those days. But, you live and you learn, especially not to talk out of your ass on things you don't know all too much about.

It just might be.

Anyway, Frank Ocean is aware of JPEGMAFIA's existence. While probably not indicative of a collab, it's cool to see Peggy continue his rise:

Is all good homie. At least you were mature enough to say "my bad" and keep it moving, unlike others who try to spin things here and there. Anyway.

Imagine someone coming into this thread like "I haven't listened to hip-hop in a while, I guess i'll check out what albums all these regulars recommend!" And the first thing they hear is fucking Nav

In fairness I just saw the album and didn't see the poster. Taste is taste ,do you, you like what you like. All my snark is reserved for OT stuff*, we all have a deep love for the genre here, no offense intended. I was just laughing because it just feels so random for Nav to be the first artist that happened to be listed.

* Ex/
*Anytime rap is discussed on the gaming side
* Anytime Em is brought up
* Anytime a trollish question is somehow asked with 100% sincerity. Such as " Did the Heist deserve to win over GKMC?"
I had to try really hard to hold back on that last one

You'd probably go back to making Eminem threads and liking Kanye's tweets.

Also what up what up, let's hope 2019 is a good year for BestGenre

coming from the Etcetera thread of MKIX, I am reminded of something.

I am looking for a Bone-Thugs N Harmony song...but god i can't remember it. It is definitely not Crossroads, but it is definitely around that time.

hahaha I can not remember a thing about it. I know the song is a bit on the slower side..very 90s..almost like an rnb song..like really slow and mellow..and very calm rapping haha idk if that helps..i was thinking it was pretty popular but I am looking at spotify and i can't find it in the Songs pane..shouldn't the Songs tab sort the tracks by most popular? I see Crossroads but not that song...

that mortal kombat thread is absolute bullshit. it's like you know shit like "rap is actually a niche genre because I don't listen to it" has no basis in reality but you can't get through to people like that.
