I was trying to write a pancake type of verse the other day.

for some reason I felt like describing emotions as unusual colors was the key


it wasn't sad enough though. I need some JD

u r not on my level

My buddy is a brewer for Kona, I like their beers. I don't have the palate to appreciate craft beers I don't think. One of my brothers is a beer snob (spade=spade @Certain), and I've gone out with him and his friends before, trying to play the part like "is that a subtle hint of plum I detect?" And they were all like stfu no. That's when I knew I'd be stuck with King Cobra for the rest of my life.

King Cobra da Goat

The key is to not have emotions at all and, rather than venting (a la sad Zen or angry Genocide), simply to measure the void using unique rhyme combinations.

Sad Zen is sad...

I wanted to write a Pinot Grij style verse about Snow as an actual informant

Don't know if any of these have been used before but I seen these and thought this would be some good topics......@whoever is running this now

http://inspireamaze.com/these-29-cle...ith-the-world/

I used those for the final week of last season, actually. The results were less than spectacular thanks to the decreased effort that often comes in the final week.

O ok. My bad.

That sounds like a leeky-boom-boom GREAT IDEA!

@El Pancake, do you like Pallbearer?

to emulate pancake you need to tighten up wording and masturbate

Specifically to Katerina Hartlova, Amy Reid, and Annisa Kate. Only then can you emulate Cakester.

@Certain I have one of their albums in my iTunes but haven't listened to it. It seems scary. Is good?

They get compared to Deafheaven because they kind of combine metal and shoegaze, but they're not really like Deafheaven. It's a little boring but very downcast. I'm not thrilled, but I've only given them one listen.

The Alchemist mixed that to run right over Domo Genesis, in particular. The pitch of the beat was way too similar to his voice, and the beat is louder than the vocals. It's a great beat, but Prodigy's the only one who really shines on it.

@Certain I have a bunch of ideas for AOWL season 4 that I want to run by you. Need feedback.

Pitchfork's top 100 albums from 2010 to the present. Here's the top 10:

1. Kanye West, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
2. Kendrick Lamar, Good Kid, m.A.A.d City
3. Deerhunter, Halcyon Digest
4. Frank Ocean, Channel Orange
5. Beach House, Teen Dream
6. Vampire Weekend, Modern Vampires in the City
7. Tame Impala, Lonerism
8. Kanye West, Yeezus
9. Sun Kil Moon, Benji
10. Fiona Apple, The Idler Wheel ...

@El Pancake will like that list.

how would you order those 10 albums?

Those 10 or my own 10? I own and really like eight of those 10, but Random Access Memories is No. 1 on my list.

I mean those 10 specifically. Any big departures from their list? I've only listened to 4 of those albums so I really can't weigh in on the list

though I'm shocked that the top 20 didn't even have RAM now that you mention it. AMG>Pitchfork

I don't care for Tame Impala. I'd go:

1. Frank Ocean, Channel Orange
2. Kanye West, Yeezus
3. Kendrick Lamar, Good Kid, m.A.A.d City
4. Fiona Apple, The Idler Wheel ...
5. Kanye West, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
6. Vampire Weekend, Modern Vampires in the City
7. Deerhunter, Halcyon Digest
8. Beach House, Teen Dream
9. Sun Kil Moon, Benji
10. Tame Impala, Lonerism

But this is my top 10:

1. Daft Punk, Random Access Memories (2013)
2. Frank Ocean, Channel Orange (2012)
3. Kanye West, Yeezus (2013)
4. The Weeknd, House of Balloons (2011)
5. Kendrick Lamar, Good Kid, m.A.A.d City (2012)
6. The National, Trouble Will Find Me (2013)
7. Fiona Apple, The Idler Wheel ... (2012)
8. Deafheaven, Sunbather (2013)
9. St. Vincent, St. Vincent (2014)
10. Killer Mike, R.A.P. Music (2012)

Not bad. I don't like Tame Impala.

Benji is good not great. Gkmc isn't #2 probably in the teens. Wasn't as big a fan of Channel Orange as everyone else seems to be.

Have One on Me would be in my top 10

My imagined @El Pancake 2010-2014 list:

1. Deerhunter, Halcyon Digest
2. Kanye West, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
3. Vampire Weekend, Modern Vampires in the City
4. Deafheaven, Sunbather
5. Joanna Newsom, Have One on Me
6. Death Grips, The Money Store
7. Beach House, Teen Dream
8. Fiona Apple, The Idler Wheel ...
9. Swans, The Seer
10. Danny Brown, Old

guys I know im going to face a firing squad for this but


its hard to take a best album list since 2010 serious

if it leaves off Katy Perry - Teenage Dream


with her 5 billboard number one singles from that album

Adele's 21 (which I shamelessly love) and Taylor Swift's Red are better examples of enormous pop hits that should be on a list like this.

21 was the top-selling album of both 2011 and 2012, joining only Thriller and the soundtrack for My Fair Lady in repeating.

But Pitchfork is Pitchfork. Their embrace of Nicki Minaj shows some progress off the elitism bandwagon.

Pitchfork gives good reviews to some pop acts.

I, too, greatly enjoy 21. Made a topic a long time ago about it.

In other news, I've been wearing out this song lately (just for the first verse, it loses some tenacity after the hook comes in)

Hooks ruin so many underground rap tracks.
