And most are garbage, man. Why do we want more from him? He needs to take 4-7 years out
I understand perfectionism Kevin Shields is the ultimate perfectionist but he at least has a body of work he can own up to even Jay Electronica does Jai Paul does not

Do you think he’s insecure about releasing music officially? Why did he release BTSU / Jasmine originally and then rerelease it on vinyl recently? Or do you think his fear was living up to the extreme hype and standard we set for him?
He’s a perfectionist like D’Angelo*
D'Angelo??
A Written Testimony is not even Eric Benet level

I’m comparing Jai to D not Jay to D. Keep up
Also Eric’s in my top 25, keep his name outta your mouth

I think he knows his music isn’t that great and that a machine and a series of very fortunate events lead to his breakthrough but he knows all it takes is one album to ruin all of that hype look at Chance the Rapper so he keeps writing all of these excuses

You actually think Jai’s music isn’t good?

What about HIRA, A.K., Reinen, etc.‘s output?

Same with them too I just don’t like their style or music it isn’t futuristic or innovative contrary popular to belief but Hira has the most potential out of PI

I don’t think it’s futuristic or innovative - I don’t think that’s their intent - I think it’s good music
I fear this is a personal expectation thing: you’re critiquing their popularity and praise over what you’re hearing - in my opinion
Outside of ANY context, Reinen makes good music, so does Jai. I’m not saying it’s the best to ever exist, but it’s good
Very similar to PND. Outside of everything, he makes good music

Yeah if they were complete unknowns of course their music is good but I think based on the standards I rate music it isn’t great but I only listen to very great music from a wide range of periods but compared to today’s s*** their music is great

Yeah that’s a fair conclusion
I will say: I don’t keep up with Jai or PI - outside of Safe’s thread here - but I’m confident when they release music, I will listen, I won’t think too much about it, but I’m confident I’ll enjoy it. To me that’s enough
Imagine you're at a house party and Jai Paul is there and you approach him and tell him "yo dude your demo was amazing I'm a huge fan" and he reacts with a slight smug and says "oh you're on my d*** huh" and you're like "what bro I don't even know you I just thought your music was nice" and he's like "lol nah you were on my nuts.. d***rider" and you're like "hol up chill" and then he pulls a Yugioh deck out of his pocket and challenges you to a fight as you wake up in cold sweat shaking

if Party released PND1 and never released again the same dudes s***ting on him itt would be praising him and his influence

that’s how it go

2 is better than 1
His popularity came from his writing and Drake affiliation post-PND1
You’re admitting he’s declined in quality over the years. No one is saying 1 & 2 aren’t classics. No one is saying he isn’t influential. The question is who makes better music? Not made
If he never released after 1, we’d talk about him every other Month and repeatedly say “Yo remember this guy?” “So much potential” and that’s it...
So even if I agree, what’s your point?
