    This mid tbh

    Love earl but this one sleepy verse song structure is just boring now..
    Only like Tisk Tisk and the Mavi song and 74

  • Nov 2, 2019

    Mavi verse was the only good thing on this.

    It’s just a soul choir loop. I feel like every rap album got a beat like that nowadays 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Cuz Alc permeated?

    Also thanks to Roc Marci too

  • beflygelt

    what was it he's trying to do? Lowkey didn't f*** with that style at all lol but I fw his energy in the vid

    Befly, hello!

    He on vacation in the video titled EAST wearing a Red Sox hat. I assume he either spends a lot of time away from home (LA) in NYC (the East) either hanging or recording with sLums (who's base is the Bronx who's home team is the Yankees who's rivals are the Red Sox). I think he mostly f***ing with them. Notice how he passing the hat around and no matter who is wearing it it always faces the camera.

    I could be just a paranoid New Yorker talking but it feels deliberately like a slight towards us. And plus we just lost the American League Championships so it's fresh in my mind

    ... bro there’s literally not a choir in that beat anywhere you’ve actually exposed yourself as not knowing what you’re talking about at all. It’s a soul song with singular male and female vocals in the chops... and if you’re saying every album has THAT nowadays wtf are you even talking about lmao that’s been a fundemental kind of hip hop beat for 25+ years now the guy this site is named after made a name for himself chopping up soul samples 15 years ago

  • beflygelt

    that said Earl is taking it far on 4N, sounds like he wasn't even talking into the mic at all lol, I'm surprised the objective mixing committee hasn't put out statements about that one yet from what I've seen

    Anyone that doesn’t enjoy how that verse makes them feel doesn’t understand human emotion

    No can't be because he just makes unfinished songs with no hooks. He doesn't completely express his thoughts

    I f*** with the heady music but I really do miss when Earls music was more playful. I understand completely why his music has evolved the way it has but I do miss the days when you could still see a bit more of the light in his darkness.

    ? You see more light in him now more than ever. He actually became vulnerable and surprisingly expressive of love and forgiveness. 09Earl would've said 2019 Earl is hating and p****.

    Honestly I think he at the level where he mastered dread so that it overcasts a lot and is very easy to lose

  • Nov 2, 2019

    This s*** been on repeat bro.

    If you listen, Earl goin off the whole tape this s*** is hard as hell.
