U guys like macklemore?

I love the messages in his songs and that he actually has something meaningful to say unlike most rappers. This is one of my favorite songs of his:


THIS IS MY PENIS SONG
I WISH THAT I HAD A BIGGER SHLONG
ONE THAT WAS QUITE A BIT MORE THICK AND WAY MORE LONG
ONE OF THOSE PORNO KING KONG DONGS

I WISH MY DICK WAS BIGGER, YEP, I CAN ADMIT IT
I'M ABOVE AVERAGE ON INCHES BUT I WANTED DAMN DOUBLE DIGITS
IF I HAD A BIG OL' COCK WHAT WOULD I DO?
I'D PROBABLY GO TO FLORIDA AND SHOW IT TO TRINA AND SCREW
GET BUTT NAKED AND START STREAKING AT MY SCHOOL
AND GET ARRESTED BUT AT LEAST THE GIRLS WOULD BE IMPRESSED
WITH MY THIRD LEG AND, AND THEN I'D GO TO A KEG AND
DO A KEG STAND, GET DRUNK AND DO THE RUNNING MAN
WITH NO CLOTHES ON JUST TO SHOW OFF

I met Macklemore like 15 years ago; I'd never heard of him but he was headlining a show where some friends of mine were the opening act. He was a cool dude and had this random fan base that showed up and knew every lyric to his songs. He had the flu but still performed.

Was funny seeing him suddenly blow up; now he seems to be hated.

Man, I just remembered I saw Macklemore at a grocery store in Los Angeles years ago. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

This is one of the worst parts about Macklemore, though. Jesus christ, this is not subtle or remotely clever.

Dude is a grade-A Cornball, I can't deny that.

CRINGE

 

[torre_avenue]

I get it.

So if Young Thug talks about long dicks (feat. Travis Scott), he gets hailed as a genius pushing the boundaries of hip-hop, but if my boy Macklemore does it, he's called "cringy" and a "weirdo."

[Dereck]

No matter what you do don't call me an artist
My bars' is more like an arms race
Inside voice feelin' weird to be given the privilege to concentrate

I left my wallet in Abu Dhabi
Dosing off in the prayer room
Don't shake my hand with the one that you write with
My code phrase for terrorists is flight risk
Whites gon' white but I'mma be aight like me mother say, do it anyway, do it anyway

An abundance
Living without the idea that I was born to be taken under
Black is the color of my true love's hair
All life trap, new nightmare
We on the freedom side
Royal keeper of the fire

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Anyone else peeping Complex trying to create a hip-hop First Take with DJ Akademiks and Joe Budden? A lot of it is opinionated fluff with Akademiks having to curb Old Man Joe's out of touch sensibilities, but every once in a while there's a some solid inside baseball concerning the business side of hip-hop.

Best rap album ever.

Stone cold classic, one of the best.

Anyway, what rap songs/albums do you think best portray/discuss/etc. drugs? I've been getting fascinated with drugs lately, its amazing how powerful they can be and how the fuck up so many lives. Danny Brown does a good job I think portraying how awful they can be (and, alternatively, how pleasurable they can be).

 

[Hitta93]

A Baltimore Love Thing and Smoke Break(Flatbush Zombies) for starters.

When compared to Macklemore, the best compliment Kanye could give him(another rapper) was that he was a "good person". And we all know he extra Ye is with compliments. So if Ye can't even over exaggerate your rap skills, there is a 99.9% chance you're trash.

 

[Bounceounce]

Ugh, Real (on Food and Liquor) is such an awkward beat, and I have no idea whT Lupe was doing with his flow, great lyrics, but man someone should have sat him down and fixed that, especially since it's the intro.
With a lot of the album as well, these beats are too loud and don't make for good flow/pockets.

I Know by Jay does good in portraying it as an abusive relationship, it's a really well written track.

I Feel Like Dying by Lil Wayne is the best

sweet. New Life was one of the better albums next year. expecting flames for his new one

Gangster ass. Peaceful. Lmao.

Some dude at work loves logic for whatever reason. Hates on everything new rap but I guess logic is the beacon of light. Old fart.

 

[Psychological Intellect]

Relistening to Atrocity Exhibition and this is mediocre.

A lot of the production kind of gets in the way or is flat out grating. Stuff like Ain't It Funny, Dance in the Water and Gold Dust is stuff that sounds good in concept but are just annoying to listen to. Today is fucking awful.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Logic has taken Hopsin's crown as rap's king of corn.

 

[HiiiLife]

Still haven't checked the new Gorillaz but getting tickets for red rocks. Lil nervous off impressions but I feel like seeing these dudes doesn't come often so I had to buy

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Logic has taken Hopsin's crown as rap's king of corn.

Truth. Before them both Macklemore probably had that.

Then again, G-Eazy competes with Logic, for sure.

Why is that?

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

G-Eazy pretty much competes with Logic right now for being unbearably lame, not sure what else to explain. G-Eazy is as generic and bland as they come.

 

[HiiiLife]

They're both white as well. Not a coincidence either

/s

 

[Psychological Intellect]

G-Eazy pretty much competes with Logic right now for being unbearably lame, not sure what else to explain. G-Eazy is as generic and bland as they come.

So because G-eazy is white he's be generic?

Young Thug is a failed lean wayne clone from Atlanta, he aint exactly unique.

Young Thug sounds nothing like Lil Wayne.

I've listen to Wayne for almost 20 years. His "whole thing" was singing/rapping hard to decipher melodies?

 

[QuantumSquid]

GAF can't dislike logic, he likes uncharted 4!

Logic has great taste in many things.

He still makes shit music.

 

[Ninja Dom]

Details, please.

I was in a bar and got into a brawl with some other dudes who were play fighting. I was too hyped up from listening to Infamous all day long.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Been on another youtube related video nostalgia trip and ran into Three 6 Mafia's Doe Boy Fresh for the first time in a decade. The way they chopped the hook still goes. J kills his verse too. And that outro.

Reminds me why Triple Six is my favorite rap group ever.
