Great projecT. Didn’t age as well as I would’ve liked but some of my all time
Favorite frank songs on there

Hip-hop isn’t just rapping, its a kind of energy (hence the 5 core elements). Gunner Stahl photos have hip hop energy. Virgil Abloh’s designs have hip hop energy. Even other musicians can have hip hop energy, like Dean Blunt or Thundercat.

Id go as far as to say that Yves Tumor even has a lil hip hop energy in his music (check noid if u disagree).

Basically, it’s a special sort of edge, where the art in question takes pride in being out of place, among other things. This album doesn’t really have it.

Now this can still be a 10/10, but I’m probably not going to listen to it again.

this thread is so lame lmao why do you guys even post on a music discussion website

Good album

Personally wouldnt say 10 and i prefer tidal but its pretty in line with the rest of their tens before dark fantasy

Side note

This decade is gonna be annoyin as people will continue to downplay mbdtf even more than they have the past couple years to be different and seem higher iq

you just mentioned a bunch of artists that associate with hip-hop artists all the time. of course you're gonna look at virgil abloh and dean blunt as more "hip-hop" than fiona apple

also i feel like yall never heard a fiona apple song if you think thundercat is more edgy and out of place

He is for the hip hop audience. Him and flying lotus occupies that space for hip hop.

damn and i was gonna listen to this last out of the friday released

i thought p4k was irrelevant to yall

all i see in here is dudes worked up and saying p4k is racist and that this album is trash

sounds like p4k still have that control they did in 2010-12 lmao

well, no, thundercat isn't more edgy or out of place, but he still carries more hip hop energy, at least in my opinion.

Look, there's nothing wrong w this album, maybe when I'm feeling more into rock or something I'll appreciate it more

Pray For Paris OUT NOW

Fiona apple lowkey more hiphop than most of these new gen hiphop artist. For her is her rapping.
plus she is a fusion of jazz, blues and soul

so is this on the idler wheel and when the pawn level then?

Didn’t know a Fiona Apple album was supposed to have hip hop energy

Lol y’all wait on needledrop and pitchfork to tell you what’s a great album it’s a shame.

That’s a real good interview and reminds me that Kanye wasn’t always an a******

wow ur so cool for not listening to music that isnt hiphop wooooowwww

aight quarantine might be saved

So many sheep.

They’re right this time

Trash

Sounds like English teacher music

Wow some of these comments are really exposing y'all. Just say you don't listen to any other genres besides modern hip hop and move on. Fiona is a certified GOAT in music and the album is incredible. So many of you guys don't even know that she's one of Kanye's biggest musical inspirations.

This quote from the Kanye-Fiona interview lmao:​

FA: It’s the same thing, but there’s a new song on there. I don’t want to talk about me.

KW: Well, I want to know. You don’t understand. I hold you higher than Lauryn Hill in my eyes.

FA: Oh, s***.
