He said he just literally stole the beats off of YouTube and shit. And then later when people found out he jacked their beats they just gave him props. *shrug*
If I was dude who made a beat, I'd at least want some credit.

Damn you know now that I think about it. He kinda did lol
The exposure is good enough. I see what TJ is saying there.

Yeah but how will people even be able to hunt down the source of those beats?

I just watched All Gold Everything (I have seen it before however) to make sure i didn't miss anything and no it still sucks balls. Have a free palette cleanser on me which i don't believe i've seen posted although admittedly i have been out of the loop the last couple of weeks or so. Kinda Money On The Floorish, kinda so good.

Fair enough.
It was posted. K.R.I.T. always deserves a re-post though.

Last drunken hating style post for the day (hopefully). Trinidad James is what would happen if Lafayette from True Blood decided he needed to be a rap star one day.
Big Boi's Vicious Lies and Rumors - After listening through the album this is how I think the project came about: During his performance at Pitchfork, Big Boi sat in on a bunch of bands and wrote down a bunch of names to contact later with the hopes of snagging them for a new project. Big Boi who was desperately looking for fresh ideas decided that he'd just call up every single person on the list and whomever contacted him back he'd put on the album.
The album has some good songs on it for sure, but the cuts that work best are those that are the most reigned-in. Little Dragon works well on a few tracks, but I believe the old-school collaborators are the ones that still prove to mesh the best with Big Boi. And once you get past the luster of the tracks, and begin to examine the album as a whole everything falls apart. It is a messy,directionless amalgam of over-produced brain-mush that lacks any sort of emotional impact. Everyone involved is quite talented, and they all work well when examined singularly, but there are just too many people on stage and the spotlight is overwhelming.

Sir Luscious Left Foot was a popular album because it was hip and fresh, so why not take that concept to the next level, he thought to himself. I'll just throw everything in, order it somehow so that the composition isn't too jarring and call it an album. I'm going to steal B.O.B.'s swag, give it a little soul, and actually succeed in selling some units. Shit I might even get a grammy, bitch I was in Outkast.

I thought Andre was the weird one in Outkast. It turns out both of them are weird, and Big Boi spent way too much of the past year going to Pitchfork writers' parties.

I always thought both were "weird" but in different ways. Basically Big Boi is a weird pimp while Andre is a weird lover? Although dre was a pimp on the first album

Trendy evolutionary mutualism may have to go on my gravestone just to fuck with people. Weirdness has led to some fantastic music but sadly this was not the case with Big Boi's latest in my opinion.
I finally caved and bought a high-quality rip of Antwon's End of Earth...Gonna be revisiting that and Jonwayne's Cassette, which needs more exposure for sure.
I see Rocky's album going similarly, but being slightly more successful.

Is his high quality rip off his bandcamp?? I fucking loved the songs he did with shawn kamp
Yeah...I finally coughed up the seven bucks.

Oh haha my bad thought you meant he re-released it. But yeah he needs to do a full release with shawn kemp
I'm not gonna repost my review a second time, but I think the consensus is that it's good, and I personally think it is his second best album, though I don't know if it will make my top ten...

To people who donated. Everyone else next year
It's good, and if you've ever had a passing interest in Game, you may like it. It's something different from him, and it's his most cohesive album outside of Documentary.
If you don't like Game, it won't change your mind, a lot of the same mannerisms are peppered across the album.

That last 'Compton' is the desperate attempt to start a convo
This last post was a desperate attempt to shit on Game after a good album

All that with wayne and big sean. I noticed that shit the moment it played but I love brown sugar. I surprisingly don't mind wayne verse on it too

What else is there to say after people said it was good?
Also did people check the Game mix?
Haven't listened to it yet and I like all of Game's album, I enjoy his style a lot so I'm excited to hear Jesus piece.
Does the leak have the Dre tracks?
Deleted that shit the moment I played it and listened to Brown Sugar later. My second favorite D'Angelo song behind Devil's Pie.

Haha the first time I listened I ended up doing the same thing cause the sample is way too obvious. But I really don't mind the song. Problem is that I end up just listening to the beat and not what they are sayin

What I thought the deluxe had two Dre tracks
Sad to see his last album on Aftermath doesn't
have a beat from Dre
Hard copy album has none
itunes has a Dre beat
Also his last Aftermath album was documentary
The mix was better than Jesus Piece, no doubt. I have to give it another listen, but I felt the album was definitely worse than Doctor's Advocate (and of course galaxies away from Documentary). I love old Game, and don't even know why. Probably the goofiness of it all...

To me, with some of the shit that comes out now, Big Boi's album isn't that weird. I feel like uniqueness isn't as accepted in hip-hop as it should be. Like MBDTF, it broadened hip-hop's somewhat narrow scope and it is often called "Too noisy" or "Too out there". It seems like anything slightly out of the ordinary is frowned upon.

Don't really like Game anymore but I enjoyed the mix. Actually recommended it to a friend who's a fan of Game.

Being mastered shitty is not an artform
Yeah, I felt the same thing. I'm not a fan of that direction at all... Maybach Music shout outs felt wrong...

Can't argue against that even if you liked the album. The mastering is godawful.
Wasn't Cruel Summer's itunes version mastered and not the others? Is there a version of MBDTF that is mastered or mastered better?
