Lmaoo this is what I’m trying to do as well

I hear that method is not the most conducive to translating into learning how to make your own original compositions

But it just seems like the most fun way to learn

no i genuinely think trying to draw a line between "real" music and street rappers is rooted in white supremacy. even if rappers front like they don't care abt music, if they have found enough success to be known by you, they care. its up to them to claim or discard labels like "musician" or "rapper" bc it's part of the image building. part of being a cultural figure is putting on an image, and even the denial of such labels is an artistic statement in itself.

like if some 70s/80s rock guys went into interviews talking about how they're really just all about partying and being crazy, and they're not even really musicians, everyone would chalk it up to just artists talking abt themselves in weird ways. or in other words, artists being artists. the reaction would be like "that's so metal!" or some s***. but no self-respecting critic would then use that to say they shouldn't be counted as musicians, right?

but when a black artist does something like that, it's taken purely at face value and they're s***-talked and ridiculed, at least by weird pretentious guys like Tyler.

How come he was allowed to have that phase and grow out of it? The artists he's talking about haven't been rapping as long as him. Someone who used to be a meme artists should be empathetic to people coming up doing the same thing.

I think it’s just because the whole interview is out now and before it was just a snippet, might as well keep all the quotable from it in this thread

Tyler never said this was about street rappers though

It’s lowkey racist of you to assume that that’s what he was talking about
