Dec 10, 2015

@Mike Tyson and Justin Bieber are having a civic union, @ODB is presiding over the ceremony, and all of JCN is invited.

@Bliss is releasing a concept album titled "Rock Bottom's Up: The Plastic Bottle Chronicles" featuring such legends as Kanye West, Jamie Foxx, and David Hasselhoff.

@KLD3816 caught a charge after he assaulted IB backstage at a Cole concert and stapled his Dreamville merch receipt to IB's forehead.

@CarolinaFiend still can't get a ride and Kobe still can't make a shot.

It's always important to post this s--- right here


First blog. First post. On the real, I have no clue what this blog is gonna turn into. I debated whether it would be hip hop based, or more social/political. I decided though, to let go of any expectations and just let s--- flow however it may. No rules, restrictions or guidelines.

On that note, an introduction is necessary.

J. Cole. Rapper and Producer out of Fayetteville, North Carolina. I spent my college years in NYC at St. John's University. I used college as the tool to move closer to the music industry, as music has been my dream since 13. Now graduated (Magna c-m Laude, holla), all energies are devoted to the steady climb to the top.

I still represent the Ville in all of my music. It's important that I give all due respect and loyalty to the city and state that molded me through all of my experiences. It's my ultimate dream to see my city shine along with the many other talented artists coming out of the region. No doubt it's gonna happen. I'ma see to it.

My first mixtape is now out and available for download. It's called "The Come Up" and is hosted by DJ On Point. download here for free http://www.zshare.net/download/1065071662ed466f/

With that said, stick with me. It's gonna be a crazy journey.

Sorry to single out Future but this covers pretty much all new school rappers like Lil Uzi Vert, Young Thug, Lil Yachty, Future, and Desiigner to name a few are very weak lyrically. Now, don't get me wrong I like these artists and have listened to Future, Thug, and Lil Uzi discogs front to back but they aren't real rap at the end of the day. Take Free Bricks 2 as the most recent example, look at the lyrics Future is spitting:

"I'ma pour out this lean like Ace of Spade, it's on me
Used to sip out the Texas, lightin' up, I'm on fleek"

"I did the transaction, 10 M's this week
Made a film, now I got to eat
I got a dealership at the crib"

"Zone 6 n***a, rob you for your bricks n***a
Hit a lick n***a, f--- your main b---- n***a"

"Young a--- n***a ridin' in a Flying Spur
Young a--- n***as out here drinkin' on the syrup
Young a--- n***a and he cookin' up the work
Young a--- n***a servin' white, T-shirts"​

I mean not to take away from the okay sounding music but these lyrics are pretty awful, and not only that but they aren't creative at all. Not only has nearly every other trap rapper spit almost the exact same bars before (how many times has lick been rhymed with brick?) but Future himself has used things like the Ace of Spades bar half a dozen times in the last two years alone. Any of us could write these lyrics and it's embarrassing because this is the same genre that produced lyrical masterpieces like Liquid swords, Illmatic, Can-I-Bus, MMLP, and even the oft ridiculed Knock Madness

And although some will call troll or something else because of the title, you know I'm not exaggerating. Check out for example the theme to American Dragon, Jake Long. At least there is some attempted wordplay like "he's cool he's hot like the frozen sun" and the actual 2 line rap part, although relatively cringy is lyrically not much worse than any of the Future bars I just posted.



Or to go for an actual more rap example check out this disney movie, Lemonade Mouth. At 2:11 the rapping starts. Not only are his lyrics far better and actually on topic to the song, but his flow and rhyme schemes are far more technically impressive than anything Future has put out since Pluto 3D. I'm honestly embaressed for the genre because this is not only from a Disney movie about a ROCK band, but this dude is just a random white actor and he's out performing Future's rapping on any of the "7peat" with lyrics probably written by some 40 year old white executive.



Honestly I don't want to hate because I like what these guys are doing but lyricism is dead and flow is dead because of autotune turning talented people like Future lazy. They just put out the same cookie cutter music over and over until they oversaturate and the next guy comes along, in-fact I heard him and Gucci made Free Bricks 2 in a couple of hours.
