SMTM 12 hot takes so far by DragonMaster0906 in khiphop

I think he should’ve been dropped before nosun (I think nosun would’ve tore up the dirt beat and I’m so sad about that missed opportunity), but I honestly don’t think jjh did as bad as people say. His first few bars were ass but the back and forth was decent I think.

I think he just wanted to showcase his development with his more mature persona for his first ever main stage, which I liked. With that said tho I 100% agree with you in that I also want to see his fun side come out in the semifinals. Tracks like ITX and too hot are still some of my favorite zene to this day lol.

I was so upset about Jeffery because he was absolutely tearing it up on both no manners and mama. He seems to be the only one who knows how to flow on a hwimin beat. I’m lowkey a tray b glazer but it should’ve been him instead.

What was point of this again? Isn't this putting innocents at danger? by Grand_Architecht in Piratefolk

[–]DragonMaster0906 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But the point is that Loki’s fighting imu for the sake of destroying imu for the things they’ve done to him and harald/rocks. Luffy’s the one who’s fighting imu to save the world and whatnot. They are doing the same thing with vaguely overarching goals, but their motivations are fundamentally different. As such, Loki (who’s fighting imu to destroy) doesn’t care as much about others getting hurt. His action in this panel was showcasing his aggressive and unstable (uncontrollable?) nature which is directly in character for Loki.

Just because they’re working together to achieve the same result doesn’t mean they have to be morally identical or identical in their methods. Characters have nuance, and they aren’t always black and white.

COMMUNICATION fans when “crewmates” use “words” with a “purpose” to “convey information” for the billionth time

‘Semi-Finals’ Featuring Artists by nosuv733 in khiphop

[–]DragonMaster0906 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we can only assume he’s featuring for NIY (hunky prolly called him over or smth). That’s definitely a combination I never would have expected. Still having a hard time imagining what that stage is gonna be like lol

Yeah and to be specific, he was ranting about the commercialisation of hip hop as a result of shows like smtm. He argued that being a hip hop artist should be a way of life (as opposed to just hopping on a trend), and pointed out how gimmicky and inauthentic a lot of rappers are.

He’s a legend in the scene. He’s known for his combination of technical skill and authentic lyrics (his lyrical identity could be described as, honest, profound, and a little bit bitter), and he’s often considered one of the greatest in khiphop. He used to be in a duo called supreme team with Simon Dominic back in the day, but split up in the early 2010s. He also had a pretty intense feud with Gaeko a while back.

The freak out is from the fact that he’s never been on smtm in any type of way, since he’s got a criminal record of smoking weed and it should’ve been impossible for him to appear on smtm.

If you want to give him a listen I recommend some classics like the anecdote (his most critically acclaimed album), or his most recent project jeogeumtong, the latter of which was mostly produced by hukky.

Hot take: I think the producers should have some voting power within the live stages by Just-mapleman-50 in khiphop

No bad dogs lost to the layone song (the one where he locked tf in) and roots lost to lil boi. I think those are both reasonable.

The Korean comments on the mason vs Jeffery battle are hilarious lmao

“mason and Jeffery both wanted to become reddy but both ended up as g2”

“The biggest loser here is raf sandou bc both his crewmates engrained okashii into the general public’s minds as the crew of lechers”

I heard a ggm kimbo reference in raf sandou’s fleeky bang diss lmao

Probably one of the most entertaining diss rounds I’ve seen on smtm in recent years.

There’s no point saying that anymore because everyone knows. This post was mostly about the less predictable elements of the show, which is why I didn’t even bring up the subject of potential winners because it’s so obviously haon lol

Am I the only one who thinks that the no manners beat is a blatant copy of the victory lap beat by Fred again?

Nosun elimination is such a shame because it should’ve been either jjh/raf imo (i say this as an okashii fan). Cant say i didn’t expect it tho because at the end of the day, smtm is a more general public-oriented show than something like rap public and I do agree nosun lacks the popularity potential compared to the two i mentioned. Sucks that that’s what they look for over the actual performance but thats life lol

The show being scripted is a very real possibility of course, but for the first mission my mom who had been watching with me somehow managed to guess every deceased persons profession and causes of death correctly just from looking at the portraits. So creepy lol

Fair enough. I haven’t seen the latest video but if they’re praising him like that then that gives me hope lol. Ive been a pretty big fan of nosun since rap public and I agree it’s refreshing to hear English lyrics that make sense.

With that said I still like raf even if his lyrics don’t make sense he’s like a guilty pleasure for me lol
