It's like stand up. You don't laugh at all the jokes; you pick out the ones you like. It's the same with poetry. Some lines land more than others.

How much do you know about hip hop, really
He gets paid like 100k a piece for those collaborations, so artistic integrity doesn't really enter into it. That's how it is with every rapper. I also thought his recent collabs were pretty good. He had some really weird/hilarious ones with Gucci, but I guess if you don't like Wayne, you probably don't get him either.
Macklemore is a wankster.
Eh, this was a shitty album, but there are some redeeming qualities. The singles had me really excited for the album. "Love Me" is his best track in a while and has some scorchers like when Wayne says he "hopes his name tastes like sardines" to his enemies. The song with 2 Chainz is actually dope, and he put out this…
This show is so fucking lame. I can't imagine that people on Capitol Hill are so gullible that Spacey's character can manipulate them as effortlessly as he does. Also, I find it really funny when a character says the name of a fictional politician that people in the House of Cards world are all familiar with: "Get me…
I was in a bar in DC, and this coked up finance bro was screaming at me, "PHOENIX IS. THE BEST BAND. YOU *HAVE* TO LISTEN TO THEM!"
The scene where she makes him beg her made me laugh a lot. Kind of a sweet moment.
Football's not dull Kelly Rowland rules you suck!
Hey, AVClub yucksters - the rest of the world got its A$AP Rocky/Aesop Rock jokes out of their system a year ago.
I feel like a lot of albums on his list seem to be by people who are not at their creative peak anymore, and he has just been a fan of those people for a while.
The whole thesis of the AVClub is old shit > new shit (as in the case of Lee Fields and Frank Ocean).
You should be called TheTastemaker.
Haha, Aesop Rock suuuuuucks…
Premature? The album came out 6 months ago. Really timely, this article.
Nerds are nerds, man. Film nerds and sci-fi nerds alike should get their faces pummeled. I mean, not that they deserve it, but I'm saying an 80's teen romp bully should beat up movie buffs too, if he truly hates nerds.
I don't think it fills up half their year end list. I think Pitchfork doesn't represent that kind of music as comprehensively as a lot of other publications do. That's like the main criticism against them, that they just report on what's hot with their readership - kind of like how they did "Best Albums of the 60's"…
Yes, I very much an activist.
But really though, "gots"? Not all black people are Dolemite, dude.
Senor, it's really bold of you to use your real name on an online forum.
