Bars, yo.

EDM BEEN had terrible rap opinions. You guys didn't know?

ait props to vince, he made a solid non-OF sounding album in a year when the headliners dropped disappointing or outright terrible albums (respectively i don't go outside, cherry bomb). i enjoyed it, even put my friends on to it. then you guys acted like it was some kind of album of the year, which is preposterous, so i gave you a reality check by noting that b4da$$ is actually better. even though joey's a recovering 90s jocker, his album is better than OF's last sub off the bench who you all spent last year fellating.

go make some fake gay posts in pnb or something you're floundering out here to an unseemly extent

[EMCEE DARTH MALEK]

album of the year right? let's see what he does with 2016...

[Blockhead]

I don't think Staples album was album of the year. In fact, I think it was somewhat of letdown, considering the high expectations I had but your take on his and his music is still

[seagrams hotsauce]

Why do rappers need to put out and album every year anyway? Plenty of great artists release shit every few years without getting shit for it

i'm perfectly happy for vince to take a

Vince Staples Rips Spotify During Spotify Event at SXSW

"Shoutout to Spotify. Thank you for giving me this check to make up for what you've done to me and all my musical friends."

During his performance at SXSW's Spotify House today, Vince Staples took some time out of his set to criticize the streaming service, The Austin-American Statesman reports. "Shoutout to Spotify," he said. "Thank you for giving me this check to make up for what you've done to me and all my musical friends." Later, he told the crowd, "listen to your favorite album 1,000, 2,000 times so everybody can get an album sale."

But the biggest shots he took were at Spotify itself. “Shout out to Spotify. Thank you for giving me this check to make up for what you’ve done to me and all my musical friends,” he said, lambasting the streaming service that he said pays him a quarter of a penny for each song streamed.

Later he told fans to check the roster of artists who had played and make sure to “listen to your favorite album 1000, 2000 times so everybody can get an album sale.”

I like the album but Vince himself didn't really impress me as much on this as he's done before. The production is interesting and at times it seems to be doing the heavy lifting for him, and he kinda gets overpowered by it.

[Kobe Bryant's Lazy Eye]

reviews gonna enable this fucking dude to keep making in rainbows b-sides talking about wanting missing rain. Get back to bomb squad type shit like hell can wait

Totally agree the idea that the production does the heavy lifting on the album. To keep with the theme of the album, it almost seems like Vince is drowned out but the guests and production get bigger and more clear platform. I've liked every project of his, this will fit in nicely in his catalogue.

745 and Big Fish were the only salvageable songs on there for me.

[david111]

[Blockhead]

Random shot in the dark but does anyone have acapellas for this album? in particular, "7:45" and "Big Fish". If so, hook me upppppp!
