TLDR

I think most of us usually agree with what he has to say but are turned off by the fact that if a joke doesn't land he immediately gets pissy at the audience instead of reflecting that maybe his material isn't always that great.

Lol I agree with everything you said but damn a TLDR on two sentences!

Yeah, when Republicans get caught saying heinous shit they just write it off as "locker room talk" and all is forgiven.

No, looking at the numbers Obama did in key counties in rust belt states and assuming she could do the same without putting in the ground work is "lazy bullshit". The media giving Donald Trump dozens if not 100's of free passes for things that would have ended any other candidate's campaign on the spot is "lazy…

But he isn't doing anything new or different. Look at the Top 50 right now. It's full of "mumble core" rappers like Uzi, Migos, 21 Savage, Desiigner, Kodak Black. Yachty doesn't even do anything to stand out from THEM. And on this album he is just doing his same schtick over more traditional and polished beats and it…

Kendrick just sold 600k first week lol. Run the Jewels and Danny Brown are doing well. Of course the underground will never be popular consistently that's why it's the underground.

That's an overreaction. There are A LOT of really talented young rappers. I'm an old head and Yachty isn't for me so I ignore him but I don't ignore all young rappers because then I'd be missing out on Vince Staples, Joey Bada$$, Denzel Curry, Kendrick, Jay Rock, Earl, Flatbush Zombies, Underachievers, Freddie Gibbs,…

That isn't entirely true. Plenty of old heads enjoy new guys who are all about positivity like D.R.A.M. and Anderson .Paak. Lil Yachty just makes objectively bad music. Which is fine, every generation has popular artists who made bad music. Ten years ago it was ringtone rap and the "old heads" then probably said the…

That's just it! Not everyone has to be super lyrical, the second coming of freakin' Nas. There are plenty of "simplistic" MC's who are enjoying success because personality and flow can make up for a lot. Migos, Travis Scott and even Future aren't exactly lyrical masters but they're enjoyable to listen to for the most…

But there was never any payoff! Ooooh the door creaked a little further this time! The only thing that was genuinely creepy was Katie standing over Micah watching him sleep for hours. Everything else was a waste of time. The first couple of times the atmosphere was creepy but after a while I was just rolling my eyes…

I agree with most of that. Budden comes across as a jackass most of the time but at the same time I can understand where he's coming from. I just think to sum up an MC who has/had undeniable skills by one single from like well over a decade ago is disingenuous.

I'm excited to see Simmons play. I remember just in Summer League last year some truly amazing court vision for someone his size.

Partied like rockstars ayy bay bay

Budden may be an angry old meme but his Mood Muzik series and a lot of the stuff he's done with Slaughterhouse is legit as Hell so to still paint him as "the Pump it Up guy and not much else" is doing him a huge disservice and kind of encapsulates why "old heads" get pissed off.

It was really not scary in the theater either unfortunately. That was one of my most disappointing movie going experiences ever.

I know that's why I ended my comment the way I did!

You guys get to add someone like Josh Jackson this year too. If Embiid can stay healthy, which is a huge if, you are gonna be one hell of a talented young team.

I like 82 games but a shorter season might give teams less incentive to rest their stars to keep them fresh for the Playoffs so we don't get a slew of Saturday prime time games where none of the stars are even playing. That was terrible this season.

I'm fine with that. The best of 5 worked well in the first round.
