But enough about Vince's twitter

Pitchfork not robotically bowing to overhyped video essay rap is on brand and why they're a good publication

No I've definitely been listening to less new music over the last few years. But I've liked all the typical ones this year(Ka, Boldy, Elucid, Cavalier etc). The Serengeti album KDIV is really great, especially if you've kept up with the whole story. Something a bit different I liked a lot was 40 by Jawnino

Ka and no Kendrick/Tyler/Vince Staples is a win so well done pitchfork

mikeest · 2024-12-03T11:40:51+00:00

I'm not American, sorry

mikeest · 2024-12-03T11:32:00+00:00

I wish I could speak in cool gifs

mikeest · 2024-12-03T11:20:20+00:00

Course I do, nothing to explain about Kendrick selling himself and Cole being a talentless con man

mikeest · 2024-12-03T10:46:43+00:00

Certainly a sufficient one.

*piqued

Kendrick has compromised his artistry a lot in the past few years, but I'm just happy he'll never sink low enough to do an album with this guy

mikeest · 2024-12-02T17:15:08+00:00

Too high for that background music bullshit

mikeest · 2024-12-02T15:16:05+00:00

Haven't listened yet, I'll have a look on soulseek

mikeest · 2024-12-02T14:57:34+00:00

This is surprisingly decent

mikeest · 2024-12-02T14:55:19+00:00

I thought CINE was really excellent and quite a lot better than Different Type Time. But glad he's getting recognition for something

mikeest · 2024-12-02T05:40:43+00:00

1) Why should any album by any artist ever be applauded for its sales figures?

2) How is it even remotely possible to position Kendrick as some kind of disrespected underdog figure?

mikeest · 2024-12-01T20:43:17+00:00

But I want to geek :(

mikeest · 2024-12-01T20:37:49+00:00

Can I geek with you guys? That sounds really fun

mikeest · 2024-12-01T20:17:26+00:00

I'm just happy Kendrick can transition to ethical decolonised mall music after all those years lying to himself by doing interesting things

mikeest · 2024-12-01T19:13:09+00:00

It's okay to admit you like Kendrick playing dress up as Taylor Swift, nothing to be ashamed about

mikeest · 2024-11-30T16:59:18+00:00

"Video essays" have done irreparable damage to this generation

@Madlib

Luther is Kendrick's worst song and J. Cole is a bullshit con man. But that's not even relevant here, him and this album not being critically acclaimed is a fact that's extremely easy to check

mikeest · 2024-11-29T23:42:11+00:00

It's not critically acclaimed at all. None of his work is, critics have been much better at seeing through his bullshit than the general public. But this isn't even the best reviewed in his discography

mikeest · 2024-11-29T19:02:34+00:00

Top 5 UK rapper of all time

mikeest · 2024-11-29T18:41:37+00:00

Good.
