This song isn't about lyrics at all, in fact the lyrics are retarded, but the vibe, the sound, and the kid's voice are all awesome. This song will blow up. http://youtube.com/watch?v=316BF17k5d8
Sorry, I like some rap and all, but this kid just plain sucks (no offense). WTF IS HE SAYING?! Repetitive and not very good beat at all. I was actually flipping through the channels and saw this live on stage... completely horrible. And this kid makes a TON OF MONEY?! I seriously, SERIOUSLY am suprised as hell that he actually got onto TV.... 1 hit wonder for sure.
But whas worse is fools like this that think they cool. <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/62eEQlyM9gY"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/62eEQlyM9gY" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
AH YOU ARROGANT PEOPLE, PLEASE OPEN YOUR LYRICAL BLINDERS!! Let's face it, Scarface sounds like jackshit compared to this dude. Scarface is definitely the way better "Rapper" but his music just doesn't sound as good. If it did, my friends who have followed rap their whole lives would actually know who he is. I'll say it again for emphasis, Scarface does not sound nearly as good as this and I'M not an idiot for thinkign this. No, I am just able to seperate the two styles and enjoy them both for what they are. Alls I'm saying is get down off of your critics pedestal and enjoy the vibe of that song. I think the beat is bomb and his voice is sick. It's not taht the song sucks, no, it's just enertaining fluff. Understand intelligent ones, you can be enertained by songs that aren't deep, or reflective. It's fluff. But it's damn good fluff.
No, no, no, getting MONEY is COOL. Always has been, always will be. If that style makes you money, it makes you cool. Nobody can deny it. What did Ice T say before, "what really gets your respect in the industry is money. sales." or something to that sort. I know dude is garbage lyrically, i even put it in the title of this topic... but he sounds damn good. His style is tight.
Fuck this shit. It's almost as bad as Hurricane Chris. And you know what's sad? It probably WILL blow up, like a-bay-bay. Shitty as hell. Expand your musical horizons to REAL hip-hop and other types of music. To quote the Streets: "You say that everything sounds the same Then you go buy them! There's no excuses my friend Let's Push Things Forward." So let's push things forward....say NO to commericalized rap!
i should -rep you for even mentioning face in the same sentence as soulja boy j/k but for real, face is the most critically acclaimed rapper of all time, 4 classics under his belt and prolly another one in the future, please dont disrespect legends i agree soulja boy makes good club music and he has an alright flow but he aint sayin nothing
Ay bay bay! When I want to sit down and appreciate music as art, I throw on some of my favorite albums by the Roots or OutKast. But when I want to get crunk and stay crunk, I want something with some skull-vibrating bass, a fresh beat, and some crazy "gangsters" yelling random shit so I can laugh and have a good time. Of course they aren't saying anything, but when I'm downing my 10th Bud Light I'm really not that concerned with "the message."
Im sorry you cannot crunk to good music. I can. When im drunk and i have to listen to shitty rap or fucking emo or indie I just get super pissed. If Im sober its just annoying but I got to have something listenable when Im fucked.
This is why I dont listen to rap. 90% of commercialized/mainstream hip-hop these days is just the same old tired shit. "Look at me, I have a nice car and lots of money and bitches and ho's and a pimp cane and a hat with a flat brim and the sticker still on it." Same old shit.
Excuse me.....................Let me get this straight. You had the nerve to say that Scarface sounds like "jackshit", and that Soulja boy......SOULJA FUCKING BOY sound better than him? Scarface has more classic albums than this dude has Videos. Soulja boys sound is just horrible, He's got the most annoying voice ever, and hes constantly yelling "OOOOOH" OR "YULE" or whatever the fuck hes saying to the point u can barely understand what hes saying. man...........
Then listen to REAL rap. From what you wrote you obviouslly know it exists. Fuck this bullshit like soulja boy. Shits terrible.
haha damn lots of soulja boy haters. but for real the point isn't to be lyrical its about makin music to dance to and shit not to just sit and vibe to. like soulja boy said himself "i'm on some different type shit, i'm on that snap yo fingers do ya dance shit" for real the kid is 16 and the song is pretty hot. you can't really compare lyrical rappers to club rappers. its like comparing comedy movies to drama movies. alot of people don't like alot of the just for laughs no plot comedies that come out, they bitch that there is no good plot or acting they want all movies to be like the godfather. these people just aren't seeing the point. the point of a comedy is just to have some laughs and a good time, drama movies stimulate the mind and make you comtemplate shit. rap is the same way. there are the artists that make songs to stimulate your mind and make you think bout shit then (ie. scarface) there there are the ones who make music to let you have some fun and get dumb with your people (ie. soulja boy) haha sorry if none of that made a bit of sense i'm hella faded
WOW, this thread is just sad. Its pretty funny how "rappers" can just come up with a "club" style beat and yell random shit and be "amazing". Again its just sad when you look at the rap industry these days almost 100% of all this main stream shit is just dumb fucks like this guy. Thanks to them they've made a lot of people look at rap as a HUGE joke.
I get what you're saying, but I don't think Artie Lang is rolling in hos and rims, nor is the cast from Mallrats. My point is, people recognize that those movies are just for laughs for the most part. People actually RESPECT this shit, and subsequently throw money at those who create it. Its just another example of how the music industry is fucked up and turned on its head. You're supposed to reward those who contribute and respect music as art, not defile it. This music is essentially made for money, that is to say, all the wrong reasons.
