On most rap songs the beat stays relatively static with maybe a few slight changes or a switch after a bit, and the vocals are the point of emphasis with more fluidity.

For the vast majority of songs on this album, Peggy is clearly, intentionally, doing the inverse, making his rapping the consistent thing and letting the beat, the point of emphasis, change. You don’t have to like it, in fact I do think there are some songs where he should have put more emphasis on his vocal performance, but to act like this is not a deliberate choice and that Peggy simply forgot how to rap with a different flow is insane.

I highly doubt that this approach to song construction is permanent, because when has anything he’s ever done been? Here’s to next album being a lyrically dense, vocal-centric masterpiece. If he wants it to be. But the constant bitching about this is getting old, man. It’s literally called Experimental Rap, he’s not going to be treating the rapping on Experimental Rap the same as on the hit album Normal Rap Songs.

I'm convinced 97% of y'all don't know what the fuck a triplet flow is. The majority of his flows on this project are not triplet, just straight double time

Iv been a huge fan of jpegmafia since veteran and consider him one of the best producers in music at the moment, that being said this entire album just felt very phoned in. So many of these songs just feel uncompleted and theres almost no melody in any of them. compair this to an album like cornballs or ghost pop tape, where each song has something to grab onto, which made the experimentation work, on this album however all the songs just kinda blend together, dubstep drums/bass, sometimes guitar, and the same flow over and over. This album just kinda bored me to be honest, which sucks because up until now peggy has consistently made genuinely freash, unique attention grabbing music, I dont know maybe it will grow on me but i cant help but feel he just kinda stopped caring while making this album. also the album cover is really cringy.

Any of yall who are bitching about the kirk bar yall piss me the fuck off. Kirk was a fascist, racist, white ethno-nationalist, homophobic, transphobic piece of shit. Peggy has and always will be a leftist rapper this fanbase used to reflect that but since he collabed with ye yall alt right bitches have come in here dressing up your christian nationalist racism as "family values". If you like kirk fuck you you're not welcome here peggy isnt the best person but yall really come here acting all high and mighty while supporting a guy that said that abortion is worse than the god damn holocaust no wonder theres a thing about peggy fans getting no women if this is what yall are like. Yall are fucking disgusting hope yall start hating this guy so i dont see your racist, misogynistic asses at a show.

I’ve been a fan since Veteran, I was absolutely obsessed for a long time, but this has been a baffling listen for me so far.

Every single track, he has the same exact energy, the same exact flow.

Listening back to his older work, he let the beats breathe, he sung on that shit, he switched it up constantly.

I feel like I’m listening to the same predictable song over and over again, no matter how good and different the beats are.

I don’t know what happened, and I don’t know how he listened to this album front to back and thought it was diverse enough.

I’m open to hearing other opinions, and I know people are enjoying it; but I really don’t get it here.

THIS JS GAS EVERYONE WHO WAS HATING NEEDS TO SEND HIM A HANDWRITTEN LETTER APOLOGIZING FOR NOT TRUSTING HIM

Veteran could legit be called experimental rap because that’s self explanatory… and experimental rap could be called veteran because of how long he’s been doing this.

Haha just another layer to ts.

Or at least that’s where my mind is at rn.

I’m really enjoying the album fr but his flows are just so so boring and repetitive. The fast rap thing is just kinda uninteresting when it’s used a dozen times. Beats are amazing tho I like the direction

lowkey just feels like black art cannot be respected at all in a constructive way LOL tbh tbh!
