Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[Hahahaha]

You skip only 3-4 songs total out of all three projects? That's crazy as hell but that's cool

 

[jus3]

AK shouting out the Trilogy again . Thursday slander though?

To this day, all 3 mixtapes stay in rotation.

Yelling Joe always wylin. Son stays sweating when he goes ham. Who pulling up to the pool party

 

[a blinkin]

The Trilogy is classic in my book. No way on earth would I ever skip more than 3 (and that's being generous) tracks on that entire body of work.

 

[Hahahaha]

Wayne doesn't have a classic. Carter 3 is DUMB TRASH

808s is not a classic, saying Kanye has 3-4 classics always makes me laugh. So many skippable songs on all those albums.



I agree with Joe. You can have a great or amazing album but doesn't make it a classic.

 

[delete1234]

Even HOB which is classic, has one skippable track. Or atleast half of it (y'all know which one )

Thursday got more skippables than EOS TBH

The Carter 1 is undoubtedly a Classic.

3 definitely isn't good. Had a road trip with the homies a few weeks ago...and we ran Wayne from Dedication to Carter 4. The drop off was something serious. Could barely get through C3 :x

 

[Deleted member 107398]

HOB Weeknds best joint

edit: I always mix the titles

 

[str8drop]

Yeah C3 was terrible, I'm judging anybody propping that up

Dedication 3 and No Ceilings are both better

 

[VARNELL HILL]

Classic topic was dope. Weeknd can sing but no way can you tell me the entire Trilogy is a classic. That's like 30 songs and no way you're not skipping 10-15 of them. I'm not rolling.

I think it depends on how you view the music. I view The Trilogy as the 3 separate albums that had 9 songs a piece. IMO, for each album...he didn't have too many misses out those 9 songs. I get with it being packaged into one big album, it may effect how someone digests the music. But for me...it's the nostalgia going back to that year when I feel like he put out 3 separate projects and each one hit. If you skip 10-15 songs...you basically saying at least one of those whole projects was trash. 

 

[Gordonson]

Same, when I break the Trilogy down into the three original tapes (which is actually the only way I ever listen to them), I'm skipping maybe 1 song across that 27 track span. I guess by default, that means that I skip 4 when combined (because of the additional song added to each.) Needless to say, it's a classic for me.

I've yet to ever listen to Carter IV now that I think about it. Carter III aged like milk for me

 

[VARNELL HILL]

I dead ***...to this day...have never bothered to listen to Carter IV. Not once. I couldn't quote you a song off it. 

And I can probably quote everything he did from the Squad mixtapes up to Drought 3.

Yeah. You don't even like the Weeknd though right?

Bought the Trilogy, Kissland and Starboy. I'm a fan, great voice and seen him live. I skip probably half of Thursday and Echos. Hated the album with The Hills. I'm an R&B guy though, I listen to mad R&B and Weeknd doesn't have any classics to me. I would consider House of Balloons but I don't play it all the way through.

My n****... You skip half of Thurday and EOS and you don't even listen to all of HOB.


Of course you wouldn't consider them classics. I don't even know how you can be fan of his and not **** with his first 3 projects.

 

[a blinkin]

Never listened to the entire C4 either. In fact the only thing I remember from C4 is Wayne SPAZZING on the ad libs on the end of She Will.

Son, if you've never listened closely to that joint, peep it.

In undergrad, me and my ****** used to stay saying
"And she did!
YES... she... did

... I think I love her" whenever we got new cheeks.

Don't think I've even seen a n**** get as red as Joe was discussing Dark Fantasy.

 

[goledensilence]

I wouldn't call C3 a classic, but I damn sure put it in my "good" projects. Think I can rap every single song on that joint.

Can only repeat 4 tracks off the Carter IV. (Blunt Blowin, She Will, 6 Foot 7 Foot, & How to Love)

 

[P C H]

HOS, Thursday, and EOS are 3 of the greatest albums i've ever heard. Bonafide classics, all three of them.

I don't think, in my time that i've heard and witnessed such a flawless, symmetrical execution of an aesthetic that bled into the music the way Weeknd did it with those 3 projects. Each project was like a trip into that world.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Joe thought Graduation had 19 songs.

 

[Hahahaha]

Had to go back and look through the Trilogy. HOB is a classic for me. I remember being so disappointed with Thursday. I skipped like 4-5 songs on that album but the other 4-5 on that album were dumb good. Then when the third came out, I expected average and it's what I got.


There's a few other R&B albums from that time period I would take over Weeknd though.

 

[ace rawstein]

Man Joe made this episode a home run.... like everything was comedy!

Graduation vs MBDTF... Graduation wins to me!

And I hate they cut off Jay list before American Gangster... thats a classic to me... Jay has 4!

Y'all boys got it. God bless.
