Lemme specify PT 2
This guy said that I am wrong for saying I like “artist yeat” and not “rapper yeat” because
- That’s like saying DS is some masterclass introspective and 2Alive is not
- That means I don’t like 2Alive because it’s “just rage” (I make rage music btw but enough about me)
- That means I don’t like rap
Here was my response to him and I think this will help you 2Alive fans realize why some of us Yeat fans consider 2093 a masterpiece
I am talking about 2Alive vs 2093 for context
DS is not a masterclass introspective. 2093 and Afterlyfe were masterclass introspective. So for people to call his LEAST MEANINGFUL ALBUM greater than his MOST MEANINGFUL ALBUM outragous to me
Yes, because it’s “just rage”. I like rage when it has:
A. Good meaning and story behind it
B. A good emotional presence to match the meaning or story
C. Good production quality(vocals, beat, etc)
IN THAT SPECIFIC ORDER OF IMPORTANCE. An example of rage that I like?
- Sayso Says by Che
- Winners Circle by Rexv2
- Miley or Live Ya Life by Xtsy*
- Pretti by Prettifun
- Halfblood Deluxe by Slayr
Examples of rage that I dont like?
- Any 2Slimey song
- Uhh most Bleood songs
- Promoting Violence by Che
So yes. I am “picky” when it comes to rage music.
- I like rap, but not in the way you think. I like rap that has meaning and tells a story. Gives a perspective of life that relates to me while masking it behind a futuristic or ambient production quality. THAT is why I like artist like
Yeat
Che
Juice Wrld
Rexv2
Prettifun
Because they each have something I relate to.
Yeat: being backstabbed and betrayed and manipulating people(2093 and Lyfestyle)
Che: being backstabbed and cutting people off(Sayso Says and Rest In Bass)
Juice Wrld: being alone and used(every album. But for me it’s either Death Race for Love or Goodbye and Goodriddance)
Prettifun: depression(Pretti and Funhouse)
You see you are a music CASUAL a music ENJOYER. I am a music CONNOISSEUR a music ENTHUSIAST.
So the “flow” or “vibe” is quite literally the LEAST of my worries in a song because it is BRAINLESS and doesn’t require much thought.
Now production DOES matter(I can’t stand 90s rap because of the production) but the meaning matters so much more.
