Faded Llamas out of touch? Lmao I'm 20 years old, I am part of the prime demographic of his audience, and all the people I know including me think his music is fucking awful, but with that said I constantly see him being used as a meme
God's Child 84 You really tagged me for a difference of a year ? It takes 2-4 years to record an album especially an album like Illmatic, which means Nas was under 19 recording Illmatic. Please think
Different times though. Back then a 18 year old was working, and tryna stack paper for him and his family . Now, 18 year olds need space because someone on the internet had a different opinion and offended them.
Kinge is right. He's not formulating it perfectly but he's right that Lil Yachty is more meme than musician at this point. He seems bigger than he is because everyone has something to say about him and a good portion of his buzz comes from ironic teenagers rather than honest-to-god fans. They know the music isn't good but it's sort of like hip hop "camp" in that its lack of quality is what you derive pleasure from. And I think Kinge is just generally correct about there being more controversy around Yachty than actual, tangible popularity. A cause cèlebré with no content.
"What is the appeal of this guy?" As a friend told me, "the average listener does not give a shit about rhyming skills, lyricism, or narrative. For them, it's all about the novelty of the image, superficial controversy, the sound of the rapper's voice, and the sound of the beat. That's what determines whether a song will be a hit or not."
I'm 19 and I just say no, all my friends said the album was trash. So yes please keep this stigma of us young bucks liking this bullshit to a specific demographic. Thank u
At 17:25 I envisioned Kinge on a mountaintop with his beard and some stone tablets: "Fetty Wap, OUT! Trinidad James, OUT! Lil Yachty, OUT!!!!" *Lightning flashes*
What Myke was saying towards the end is what I was trying to say for awhile. Hip hop isn't just "boom bap", there's so many different "sub" genres to it. & ppl just gonna have to accept it. Don't have to like it but it's here. That's why I hate the term "true hip hop head" or whatever.
lpward90 that's what I'm saying. I don't think it's because it's a new sound in hip hop, and we're just getting old. It's just that artist that are making similar music but better aren't getting the spins.
I'm 16 years old in London and I for one hate lil yachty. All the people I know that associate themselves with that type of genre in hip-hop believe this album is terrible. Its not an 'young' thing anymore, everyone have realised that he is rubbish.

When Kinge was talking about Yachtys brand is bigger then his music i also think he was talking about Yachtys endorsements with Nautica, Sprite, Target and ect. like Kinge said its never about Yachtys music it's about him and the hype and controversy with him.
i actually feel almost enlightened after watching this video, specifically after Myke's rant in the middle about yachty and alike being new punk rock; its so eye-opening and makes perfect sense, strange how i missed it in Fantano's review because now i think that is exactly whats going on with this type of music
"Nah FUCK that!" [pulls out gun] "WHEN YA'LL NIGGAS GO START GIVIN' REAL HIP HOP THE CREDIT IT DESERVE 'ROUND THIS BITCH!!" Crew: "KINGE COOL IT BRUH!" Ken (crying): "THIS AINT REAL HIP HOP!" [falls to floor] "This ain't hip hop fam!!"
Ay but take y'all time and review albums that deserve too though. Goldlink - At What Cost Smino - blkswn Talib Kweli & Styles P - The Seven And if y'all do R&B albums do Bryson Tiller's new album and SZA's.
I don’t think you guys are getting old, it’s just bad music. I’m in his target age range and can’t stand this. (And the people I know who do like this don’t think of music in the same way. It’s just background at parties or for social media trends (like the bad and boujee line)
lil yachtys appeal was more aesthetic on his Lil Boat tape, it was new and fresh and I loved it. But imo he has regressed ever since then and this long ass album only haa a few even listenable tracks. Im sure Yachty can do better, i just doubt ge cares to.
It's really people who were in elementary school when Soulja Boy, Lil B etc. came out.. they're old enough to make their own music now and that's who their inspirations are
I'm at the 15 minute mark, and y'all got a few things twisted. First off, Lil Yachty doesn't speak for the youth as much as you think. Go to any high school, & this album won't be playing there. 💯 But his Lil Boat mixtape was actually appealing for the vibe & feeling it had throughout. Teenage Emotions was so non-cohesive, it was hard to get through. Not to mention it was 20+ tracks long. It's a chore to get through & about 10% is actually listenable. This album is NOT what Myke explained as "the music the old people don't understand". Nobody likes this shit. Second, Ken didn't exactly lay out Lil Yachty's "brand bigger than music" comments well. (which I thought made sense) So let me lay it out better. People see him on Sprite commercials & shit, and the damn near entirety of the hip hop community shits on him, but how big of a fanbase does he actually have?? I personally think that the success of the Lil Boat mixtape was attributed to it being a free listening experience. If Lil Boat was released solely on iTunes, I doubt it'd be as successful as it is. (in terms of numbers) So there's more people talking about him than listening to his music. Sorry for the long post, but I just thought I'd clear that shit up, because I was cringing super hard. Hope y'all read this. Peace
Yeah, this is a good explanation because I was cringing too. Myke was lowkey giving Yachty a pass for this bs of an album. As much money as QC has put behind this fool, and he only moving 46k out the gate? And it's 21 tracks worth of nondefendable trash? This album exposed Yachty and his fan base, and I think Ken and lil boat are spot on with their assessment. I think Myke just lumped this album in with all the other "young music" he listens to and didn't feel credible enough to shit on it, but the "younger generation" as a whole ain't messing with this album.
Mattwashere2013 Exactly. I'm not mad at Myke giving this album a pass, as much as I am mad that he would say that this album speaks for the youth. It doesn't. Kids in high school & middle school right now are not playing Teenage Emotions. They're playing DAMN. They're playing T-Wayne. They're playing Lil Uzi VS. The World. Hell, they're better likely to be playing the new Playboi Carti album, than Teenage Emotions. I agree with Ken. NOBODY LIKES THIS SHIT
BowditchXD yeah that's like the one thing i don't like that they still do.. they make it a black and white issue as opposed to actually talking about.. they kinda chuck it off as " oh it's just a young thing"... no... it isn't... just like how fetty wap, trinidad james, and the rest of the 15 minutes of fame rappers weren't just for young kids.. t-wayne and silento are more for young kids... they had dance songs that get them jumpin... yachty doesn't do that... i wish they would actually stop generalizing so much
BowditchXD only thing that was bothering me was ken being mad for no reason.. feefo and mike said it.. it's nothing new.. you had soulja boy, hurricane chris, yc, kreayshawn, trinidad james, fetty wap etc etc... yachty, kodak, etc are just a continuation of that.. mike was 100% right.. you were cosigning lil b but you're mad that a lil yachty showed up.. that's like giving rick ross a pass on the CO shit but then getting mad at future for saying that the whole percs and molly thing is a gimmick and he isn't actually addicted to any of it
Alexis Quintana since you made this comment I feel like you can give me some insight on this question. I don't understand a lot of the new generation music, so what makes this Yatchy project trash and the other artists good? I ask because as far as I know the new gen have made it clear they don't care about rapping. So what is the new bar then? Is it the way they can make a melody?
Yeah, a lot of it has to do with the melody and mood of the songs. Their music feels like an expression of their feelings during when they were recorded. While you're listening you don't need to worry about complex lyrics and metaphors, just about the vibe it gives.
Bruce Kent Well not a really a fan but the appeal of his Lil Boat album was that it was a breath of fresh air and had sum simple light hearted but good catchy songs. This album is way too long, sounds expensive and has a lot of his throwaway tracks. Compared to his previous projects it really sounds like he sold out lol
I am 24 now and just finished graduate school so I think i can shed some light on the rise of Lil B and Yachty type music and artists. You can split their audience in two areas. One area is the younger generation who are in middle school and high school who really don't give a shit about Kendrick-esque rappers unless they hit mainstream and concentrate on rappers that are easily accessible and to be honest everyone else is listening to so you wanna fit in and not get left out. They are easier to listen to so that is a major plus for the younger generation. However at the same time I would argue that I have met many kids in high school (Juniors and Seniors) who enjoy Yachty type rappers but listen to different rappers that actually make you think and have bars that force you to pay attention (clearly not the majority but I would say a good 25%~30% of them). This is where the second audience comes in place which is essentially my generation that appreciate Yachty and Future because hey man it bumps in the whip no matter what non sense they are rapping about. Sometimes you just wanna listen to ignorant ass rap music which nasty ass trap beats because you just wanna feel good without expending too much energy in trying to decipher what the hidden message could be at either parties or anywhere else. However my generation recognizes Kendrick, Cole, Vince, Freddie Gibbs, Run The Jewels, Gambino, and Chance are clearly the better rappers in almost every way and deserve to be applauded and given awards for their hard work in keeping hip hop more diverse.
ok but you know you're generation could listen to just the intrumental versions of yachty and future songs and spare all the people around them the headache they would get from listening to their horrible rapping ...just saying or just listen to better artists who use trap beats ...if there are any ????...Idk .You don't buy thier music do you? I should hope you are not giving your money to bad mumble rappers who don't deserve it ..and I'm 25 and I REALLY don't get how anyone can see future and yachty as "fun" .. I just listened to one of his songs and immediatly wanted to puke ...that's not fun...I guess I'm too old to understand it lol ..the only people who should enjoy this are 11 - 17 year olds who have never heard kendrick,cole and RTJ like how can anyone go from listening to those artists and then go and listen to yachty and future without being discusted by their lack of effort ? I don't get it . and you say they just wanna listen to it to feel good and not expend energy in deciphering the messages but once you get the meaning of the songs by good artists ..then wouldn't it be fun? like it doesn't take long to figure out the meaning they are going for. and no offence by any of what I'm saying but I just don't get it.
I am the black wizards my guy look at this way. There are loads of people like me that listen to future and kendrick but to us it all depends on the setting and the mood we are in. Trust me nearly all the people that listed to future and yachty know that their is music if we really sit down and think about it is really bad but say you're at party, at the gym, or driving home from stressful day at work you are gonna put on that future hendrix and bang with it because it just makes you feel better and move your body. We also understand that rappers like kendrick are 50x better than yachty but imo you need to really be in the mood and right set of mindset to truly appreciate those artists. Putting on To Pimp A Butterfly at a party or a social gathering would be really awkward imo because no one really wants to dance and turn to that type of music. Some days you feelin some future and some days you want to listen to atmosphere and run the jewels. A little mix of both and appreciating both types of hip hop music wouldn't be the end of the world
I listen to Future, Migos, and Kodak song or two, Black Youngsta and even a song or two from Playboi and Uzi and then some....but this nigga Yacthy is just some trash bruh. Nothing about his voice, the way he rhymes or anything is appealing to the ear all he got is the beats, he is the definition of a artist being carried by the beat with this mumble shit. Anybody bringing he makes happy music his "happy music" just doesn't offer nothing, niggas like Kyle and D.R.A.M. and etc know how to give off good vibes and still musically sound appealing. Don't get it twisted tho i got more Kendrick, Rick Ross, Dave East, Tech N9ne, Joey, Kevin Gates, Cole, RTJ, Tory Lanez, K.A.A.N., Joyner Lucas, some Anderson Paak, some good shit from the early 2000's and 90's and more in my playlist but they all have something in there songs i want to hear for whatever reason.....but i don't see nothing about this guy Lil Yatchy that brings that feel good shit other then from a feature or two he's in and in those cases he's just in the way and the song can do without him and still do good.
He listens to a lot of differeny hip hop and isn't afraid to look at things from someone else's perspective despite not liking it himself. Too many people view music through the lens of "I hate it so no one else does either and anyone that does doesn't know what real music is."
Sami Ali speak English. Why should I have to complain about how lyricism should matter? That's like asking a singer to stop complaining about off pitch singers. It's the same shit
I was an old head at your age too then I grew up and got into other genres and understand music more, I dislike this album but I enjoy the "Lil Boat" album because I love the way it was mastered, love the melodies, love the instrumentals, love the positive energy/message, this is feel good music that's all it is
javion pierce well done. They already know some young people don't like it you headass. Also bars don't mean shit if the cadence and flow isn't there. What good is it to be like hopsin or watsky and on average don't have good flows or have the skill to construct a good song. Also quality is subjective.
In my opinion, I think why this album is such trash is because was it went against what made Yachty appealing to me in the first place. The Lil Boat mixtape was incredibly charming, because you had this goofy kid rapping/singing over bubblegum trap beats. It let his personality shine through and covered up whatever faults he had. It was short, simple, and unpolished. He was unique. Now you have this shit, where there's 21 tracks and it's over an hour long, the beats are uninspired garbage and the production is top notch. This albums screams wanting to be popular. It sucks out all of the charm Yachty had and gives way for his flaws to be shown up front to the listener. There are moments on the album where it tries to capture that sound Yachty had on "Lil Boat", but it sounds like a cheep knockoff than an actually Lil Yachty song. It'd be like if Ramones went from their first album and straight into this 80 minute slick prog rock epic. It really sucks that this album ended up the way it did because I really wanted it to be decent, but instead I'm let down by a really shitty album :(
I guess what I meant to say was it sounds like how a mainstream record would sound like, like it's more cleaner than "Lil Boat" but the actual beats he's doing his shit over sound bad. I just couldn't word it properly lol
The First Smooth Jazz is one of the worst sub-genres of Jazz. I don't care if other people like it or praise it, but it lacks thought, improvisation, and character. It's not terrible music, but for such a diverse and well-rounded genre as Jazz, it's not up to par.
Nah, knowing Myke and his music taste its quite understandable why he wouldn't gravitate to smooth jazz. Doesn't mean he won't like other genres of jazz especially the free/avant-garde/fusion styles of jazz like Peter Brotzmann's Machine Gun or Mahavishnu Orchestra's Inner Mounting Flame for example.
Interesting discussion - we gotta stop writing off terrible music as something young. I often speak to college students about hiphop and there are more young people with standards than you think, so we should give the youth some credit. The previous generations didn't like our music because they didn't get it - hiphop was brand new at the time. We grew up with hip-hop so we should still understand it enough to understand the basic fact that rappers should at minimum be able to rap well. Saying "we're old, it's not for us" is an easy copout that doesn't hold people accountable to contributing quality content to this culture.
mike has never been so wrong. not a single young person listens to yatchy and thinks "i can do this too". the people who like his music just think is a fun sounding dude.
this video has more replay value than the album.
Louai Shalabi yes

Nope, it was Beezy who said that lmao!
That was funny as shit
Xeon People sleep on Beezy. Beezy is the funniest guy.
Nas dropped the classic album Illmatic at the age of 19 which means he probably recorded between the ages 17-19. Age is not an excuse.
MyOwnBoss he dropped it at 20 but I get what you're saying
MyOwnBoss Illmatic came out in 1994, which Nas was at the age of 20-21 at the time, not 19.
God's Child 84 You really tagged me for a difference of a year ? It takes 2-4 years to record an album especially an album like Illmatic, which means Nas was under 19 recording Illmatic. Please think
MyOwnBoss I guess you're right, perhaps i've looked over the fact that it does take years to make an album. My bad.
Different times though. Back then a 18 year old was working, and tryna stack paper for him and his family . Now, 18 year olds need space because someone on the internet had a different opinion and offended them.
Lil Boat wrote, "She's my stepsister so I guess thats incest." He wrote that bar down and actually recorded it. No.

"What if he is just ushering in a new style of rap?"
NO NONONONONONONO NO
unfortunately...
You can fight all you want. But its happening.
Myke trashing Lil Yatchty ? entertainment guaranteed!
Ken on Ken mode doing a rant of how horrendous this shit is? I'm all for it!

As a friend told me, "the average listener does not give a shit about rhyming skills, lyricism, or narrative.

Is it me or does it look like B was mentally and physically drained from listening to this 😂😂
Review is 27 minutes, but i feel like Beezy is only going to talk for 30 seconds about this one loool
Ahmed Ismail You were right lol
the fact that myke brought up the iconic lil B review 6 years later>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
All these years, lil B still breaking this friendship up !!! 😞
What Myke was saying towards the end is what I was trying to say for awhile. Hip hop isn't just "boom bap", there's so many different "sub" genres to it. & ppl just gonna have to accept it. Don't have to like it but it's here. That's why I hate the term "true hip hop head" or whatever.
lpward90 then why isn't Isaiah rashad, RTJ, SZA, etc getting spins like that then. Those are new comers too
You're absolutely right and I have no clue why they aren't getting more spins because they should
lpward90 that's what I'm saying. I don't think it's because it's a new sound in hip hop, and we're just getting old. It's just that artist that are making similar music but better aren't getting the spins.
lpward90 I doubt anybody fucks with the "trash" genre doe
I CAN'T believe they reviewed this one haha. Bout to strap in for a classic DEHH trashing!
It's good entertainment
I'm 16 years old in London and I for one hate lil yachty. All the people I know that associate themselves with that type of genre in hip-hop believe this album is terrible. Its not an 'young' thing anymore, everyone have realised that he is rubbish.

Coming back to this video in 2024 after Yachty dropped Let’s Start Here. Myke deserves an award
Why do old heads always try to push this kids like Yachty narrative? A lot of us dont. We have other great young artists that we listen too.

Thijs van asselt that dude is trash. He likes 21 pilots
Thijs van asselt I can't even stand to listen to that dude talk for two seconds.
Thijs van asselt future isn't trash to me... Yachty is tho
Started laughing as soon as I saw y'all actually took the time out to review this album. Lol
Ay but take y'all time and review albums that deserve too though. Goldlink - At What Cost
Smino - blkswn
Talib Kweli & Styles P - The Seven

Larry Whitworth Jr. yo I'm 15 and I don't fuck with this either. so I feel you.
I don’t think you guys are getting old, it’s just bad music. I’m in his target age range and can’t stand this. (And the people I know who do like this don’t think of music in the same way. It’s just background at parties or for social media trends (like the bad and boujee line)
Okay you guys need to relax he only alludes to being mixed like 4 times!
.. oh shit wrong review my bad
whoops!!!
Beezy was pissed!
Marco Gomes Rodrigues lmao "but y'all agree to the shit" 😂
This is about to be the funniest DEHH review of the year
lil yachtys appeal was more aesthetic on his Lil Boat tape, it was new and fresh and I loved it. But imo he has regressed ever since then and this long ass album only haa a few even listenable tracks. Im sure Yachty can do better, i just doubt ge cares to.
2:39
"he can sound ok"
*everybody bursts laughing*
It's really people who were in elementary school when Soulja Boy, Lil B etc. came out.. they're old enough to make their own music now and that's who their inspirations are
I'm at the 15 minute mark, and y'all got a few things twisted.
First off, Lil Yachty doesn't speak for the youth as much as you think. Go to any high school, & this album won't be playing there. 💯 But his Lil Boat mixtape was actually appealing for the vibe & feeling it had throughout. Teenage Emotions was so non-cohesive, it was hard to get through. Not to mention it was 20+ tracks long. It's a chore to get through & about 10% is actually listenable. This album is NOT what Myke explained as "the music the old people don't understand". Nobody likes this shit.
Second, Ken didn't exactly lay out Lil Yachty's "brand bigger than music" comments well. (which I thought made sense) So let me lay it out better. People see him on Sprite commercials & shit, and the damn near entirety of the hip hop community shits on him, but how big of a fanbase does he actually have?? I personally think that the success of the Lil Boat mixtape was attributed to it being a free listening experience. If Lil Boat was released solely on iTunes, I doubt it'd be as successful as it is. (in terms of numbers) So there's more people talking about him than listening to his music.
Sorry for the long post, but I just thought I'd clear that shit up, because I was cringing super hard. Hope y'all read this. Peace
lol Also, Beezy, you're the man. XD "I don't got much to say about this album, other than this shit's fuckin horrible"
Yeah, this is a good explanation because I was cringing too. Myke was lowkey giving Yachty a pass for this bs of an album. As much money as QC has put behind this fool, and he only moving 46k out the gate? And it's 21 tracks worth of nondefendable trash? This album exposed Yachty and his fan base, and I think Ken and lil boat are spot on with their assessment. I think Myke just lumped this album in with all the other "young music" he listens to and didn't feel credible enough to shit on it, but the "younger generation" as a whole ain't messing with this album.
Mattwashere2013
Exactly. I'm not mad at Myke giving this album a pass, as much as I am mad that he would say that this album speaks for the youth. It doesn't.
Kids in high school & middle school right now are not playing Teenage Emotions. They're playing DAMN. They're playing T-Wayne. They're playing Lil Uzi VS. The World. Hell, they're better likely to be playing the new Playboi Carti album, than Teenage Emotions.
I agree with Ken. NOBODY LIKES THIS SHIT
BowditchXD yeah that's like the one thing i don't like that they still do.. they make it a black and white issue as opposed to actually talking about.. they kinda chuck it off as " oh it's just a young thing"... no... it isn't... just like how fetty wap, trinidad james, and the rest of the 15 minutes of fame rappers weren't just for young kids.. t-wayne and silento are more for young kids... they had dance songs that get them jumpin... yachty doesn't do that... i wish they would actually stop generalizing so much
BowditchXD only thing that was bothering me was ken being mad for no reason.. feefo and mike said it.. it's nothing new.. you had soulja boy, hurricane chris, yc, kreayshawn, trinidad james, fetty wap etc etc... yachty, kodak, etc are just a continuation of that.. mike was 100% right.. you were cosigning lil b but you're mad that a lil yachty showed up.. that's like giving rick ross a pass on the CO shit but then getting mad at future for saying that the whole percs and molly thing is a gimmick and he isn't actually addicted to any of it
So we just going to disregard the incest line?
I can't believe you guys did this
I'm dying already
you guys really make my tough times non-existent with these videos, please keep this up. people count on you for good days and vibes!
Oh man! I should've grabbed some popcorn.
This low key y’all best review 💯
from someone who likes uzi, carti, kodak, and a lot of the new generation, this album was trash. nobody fucking with it that's why it sold terribly
Alexis Quintana Yeah
Alexis Quintana since you made this comment I feel like you can give me some insight on this question. I don't understand a lot of the new generation music, so what makes this Yatchy project trash and the other artists good? I ask because as far as I know the new gen have made it clear they don't care about rapping. So what is the new bar then? Is it the way they can make a melody?
Yeah, a lot of it has to do with the melody and mood of the songs. Their music feels like an expression of their feelings during when they were recorded. While you're listening you don't need to worry about complex lyrics and metaphors, just about the vibe it gives.
That being said, Teenage Emotions was fucking trash
Bruce Kent Well not a really a fan but the appeal of his Lil Boat album was that it was a breath of fresh air and had sum simple light hearted but good catchy songs. This album is way too long, sounds expensive and has a lot of his throwaway tracks. Compared to his previous projects it really sounds like he sold out lol
I am 24 now and just finished graduate school so I think i can shed some light on the rise of Lil B and Yachty type music and artists. You can split their audience in two areas. One area is the younger generation who are in middle school and high school who really don't give a shit about Kendrick-esque rappers unless they hit mainstream and concentrate on rappers that are easily accessible and to be honest everyone else is listening to so you wanna fit in and not get left out. They are easier to listen to so that is a major plus for the younger generation. However at the same time I would argue that I have met many kids in high school (Juniors and Seniors) who enjoy Yachty type rappers but listen to different rappers that actually make you think and have bars that force you to pay attention (clearly not the majority but I would say a good 25%~30% of them). This is where the second audience comes in place which is essentially my generation that appreciate Yachty and Future because hey man it bumps in the whip no matter what non sense they are rapping about. Sometimes you just wanna listen to ignorant ass rap music which nasty ass trap beats because you just wanna feel good without expending too much energy in trying to decipher what the hidden message could be at either parties or anywhere else. However my generation recognizes Kendrick, Cole, Vince, Freddie Gibbs, Run The Jewels, Gambino, and Chance are clearly the better rappers in almost every way and deserve to be applauded and given awards for their hard work in keeping hip hop more diverse.
coolyouification you can keep your ring
ok but you know you're generation could listen to just the intrumental versions of yachty and future songs and spare all the people around them the headache they would get from listening to their horrible rapping ...just saying or just listen to better artists who use trap beats ...if there are any ????...Idk .You don't buy thier music do you? I should hope you are not giving your money to bad mumble rappers who don't deserve it ..and I'm 25 and I REALLY don't get how anyone can see future and yachty as "fun" .. I just listened to one of his songs and immediatly wanted to puke ...that's not fun...I guess I'm too old to understand it lol ..the only people who should enjoy this are 11 - 17 year olds who have never heard kendrick,cole and RTJ like how can anyone go from listening to those artists and then go and listen to yachty and future without being discusted by their lack of effort ? I don't get it . and you say they just wanna listen to it to feel good and not expend energy in deciphering the messages but once you get the meaning of the songs by good artists ..then wouldn't it be fun? like it doesn't take long to figure out the meaning they are going for. and no offence by any of what I'm saying but I just don't get it.
I am the black wizards my guy look at this way. There are loads of people like me that listen to future and kendrick but to us it all depends on the setting and the mood we are in. Trust me nearly all the people that listed to future and yachty know that their is music if we really sit down and think about it is really bad but say you're at party, at the gym, or driving home from stressful day at work you are gonna put on that future hendrix and bang with it because it just makes you feel better and move your body. We also understand that rappers like kendrick are 50x better than yachty but imo you need to really be in the mood and right set of mindset to truly appreciate those artists. Putting on To Pimp A Butterfly at a party or a social gathering would be really awkward imo because no one really wants to dance and turn to that type of music. Some days you feelin some future and some days you want to listen to atmosphere and run the jewels. A little mix of both and appreciating both types of hip hop music wouldn't be the end of the world
coolyouification listen to Westside Gunn, Conway, & Benny and thank me later. They got signed to Shady Records recently too. They are fire!
I listen to Future, Migos, and Kodak song or two, Black Youngsta and even a song or two from Playboi and Uzi and then some....but this nigga Yacthy is just some trash bruh. Nothing about his voice, the way he rhymes or anything is appealing to the ear all he got is the beats, he is the definition of a artist being carried by the beat with this mumble shit. Anybody bringing he makes happy music his "happy music" just doesn't offer nothing, niggas like Kyle and D.R.A.M. and etc know how to give off good vibes and still musically sound appealing. Don't get it twisted tho i got more Kendrick, Rick Ross, Dave East, Tech N9ne, Joey, Kevin Gates, Cole, RTJ, Tory Lanez, K.A.A.N., Joyner Lucas, some Anderson Paak, some good shit from the early 2000's and 90's and more in my playlist but they all have something in there songs i want to hear for whatever reason.....but i don't see nothing about this guy Lil Yatchy that brings that feel good shit other then from a feature or two he's in and in those cases he's just in the way and the song can do without him and still do good.
Yachty's just an industry plant
Why is Myke always right?
Geedoh he's not. he believes in white privilege.
Geedoh I usually agree with myke but I can't agree with him on this
Because He likes more music than hip hop
He listens to a lot of differeny hip hop and isn't afraid to look at things from someone else's perspective despite not liking it himself. Too many people view music through the lens of "I hate it so no one else does either and anyone that does doesn't know what real music is."
Because he uses logic and reasoning to support his claims, so even if he isn't totally right, he sounds right
I'm 17 and this album was trash
Ken didn't disappoint, especially during "If You're Watching This" 😂
I'm 17 and this shit is ass asf. If this is the future of rap i'm definitely an "old head" even though i'm 17
nate lopple no you're lewrongeneration. You will always bang on about how le lyricism mattered. You're not special or unique for not liking this
Sami Ali speak English. Why should I have to complain about how lyricism should matter? That's like asking a singer to stop complaining about off pitch singers. It's the same shit
I was an old head at your age too then I grew up and got into other genres and understand music more, I dislike this album but I enjoy the "Lil Boat" album because I love the way it was mastered, love the melodies, love the instrumentals, love the positive energy/message, this is feel good music that's all it is
I loved beezy's review 😂😂😂 sums my opinion up perfectly
I'm 19 and would rather have quality and bars. It's a young thing, but it's not for all of us.
javion pierce well done. They already know some young people don't like it you headass. Also bars don't mean shit if the cadence and flow isn't there. What good is it to be like hopsin or watsky and on average don't have good flows or have the skill to construct a good song. Also quality is subjective.
Sami Ali the hell you get mad for punk ass. I simply was giving my opinion of the topic they were discussing, I have every right to do so.
the punk rap epiphany was the best part of the whole review, had me in tears how Myke just parted the red seas with that fam
In my opinion, I think why this album is such trash is because was it went against what made Yachty appealing to me in the first place. The Lil Boat mixtape was incredibly charming, because you had this goofy kid rapping/singing over bubblegum trap beats. It let his personality shine through and covered up whatever faults he had. It was short, simple, and unpolished. He was unique. Now you have this shit, where there's 21 tracks and it's over an hour long, the beats are uninspired garbage and the production is top notch. This albums screams wanting to be popular. It sucks out all of the charm Yachty had and gives way for his flaws to be shown up front to the listener. There are moments on the album where it tries to capture that sound Yachty had on "Lil Boat", but it sounds like a cheep knockoff than an actually Lil Yachty song. It'd be like if Ramones went from their first album and straight into this 80 minute slick prog rock epic. It really sucks that this album ended up the way it did because I really wanted it to be decent, but instead I'm let down by a really shitty album :(
You hit the nail on the head.
weirdfish how are the beats garbage if the production was top notch? 😂
I guess what I meant to say was it sounds like how a mainstream record would sound like, like it's more cleaner than "Lil Boat" but the actual beats he's doing his shit over sound bad. I just couldn't word it properly lol
Ken had me rolling. Y’all are the best
DIS GONE BE GOOD * pulls out chair*
Can't believe Myke can't understand smooth Jazz though
he's a metalhead. Of course, he doesn't.
The First Smooth Jazz is one of the worst sub-genres of Jazz. I don't care if other people like it or praise it, but it lacks thought, improvisation, and character. It's not terrible music, but for such a diverse and well-rounded genre as Jazz, it's not up to par.
Eden Hines True man true. It ain't Winston Marcellus or Lee Morgan.
Nah, knowing Myke and his music taste its quite understandable why he wouldn't gravitate to smooth jazz. Doesn't mean he won't like other genres of jazz especially the free/avant-garde/fusion styles of jazz like Peter Brotzmann's Machine Gun or Mahavishnu Orchestra's Inner Mounting Flame for example.
Smooth jazz is awful. I say this as a jazz head.
It's 3.30 I just finished my night shift, I'm eating some good ass pizza , let's fucking go!!
karma delivery *clap clap*
karma delivery omg same!!!!

“Yo ass old, that sums up this album”
If it don't bump in the whip, the music ain't shit.
Bullshit. i Wouldnt bump to pimp a butterfly in the whip and thats one of my favorite albums.
Roy King. Hood politics is one of the dopest songs to ride to.
Joshua Sutton Opposites Attract is better than most of the trash rap that's been released in 2017.
Loved this review. Funny as hell with an interesting conversation. Great job crew.
Time to enjoy a good old roast
yo i love how you guys debate your musical choices and outlooks. I feel like you guys would like starlito and don trip step brothers album
Y'all should review the new Brockhampton project btw
SomeonePunchedMe please DEHH
SomeonePunchedMe I'm bumping that in the whip rn
Best message to the artist. 27:20
I've never clicked so fast to look at some opinions.
i know what Ken's saying; the actual quality of the music he puts out doesnt deserve the amount of talk/discussion he actually gets.
I'm just here to hear myke's rant
Interesting discussion - we gotta stop writing off terrible music as something young. I often speak to college students about hiphop and there are more young people with standards than you think, so we should give the youth some credit. The previous generations didn't like our music because they didn't get it - hiphop was brand new at the time. We grew up with hip-hop so we should still understand it enough to understand the basic fact that rappers should at minimum be able to rap well. Saying "we're old, it's not for us" is an easy copout that doesn't hold people accountable to contributing quality content to this culture.
Bruh...This should be good!
mike has never been so wrong. not a single young person listens to yatchy and thinks "i can do this too". the people who like his music just think is a fun sounding dude.
