“Im gonna give my family a better life, and explore my artistic creativity, and now... I HAVE SEX WITH WOMAN FROM ATLANTA” Truer words shall never be spoken
@marcbrown6582 If you think those 2 things connect, then you need to go back to school. Also, all his broads from Atlanta couldn't stop him from jerking off on a plane to a flight attendant and basically putting the nail in the coffin of his already zombified career.
I think this song is dope. I like lyrical and more complex hip-hop too, but shit like Panda is meant for blasting through the speakers and getting pumped.
sometimes you will want to blast Joey badass or Kendrick Lamar and sometimes you just need a little young thug,a lil yachty and hopefully in the future a desiigner
I don't think DEsiigner would call himself a lyrical genius, and i don't think that is how he wants to be portrayed either. So far his image has been the crazy guy who jumps around and dabs and makes weird mouth sounds. Panda is a hip hop club song, and that is what works
jp kinsella Totally agree! Kanye Just threw his name on it so he can bum off Desiigner's......I can't say creativity because he sounds exactly like everything else out there!
Yeah, I thank you for bringing that up. There are breaks in between where Lupe wonders what drink he'll get and it's funny that a Chinese food place in a food court gets a parody
Here in East Africa, to Swahili speaking people "Panda" translated to English is "Climbing"...so if you listen to the song with our understanding of "panda" which is "climbing " it makes more sense that way...hehe
i mean, if you're driving a fresh white x6 and other fun things Desiigner does in the video, it would look like you're climbing, making and spending more money, so it would still work
Desiigner's flow and energy project fun, which is a problem I have with most "party rap" or trap rappers, they sound kind of bored. His lyrics are pretty standard, but just like Ace Hood when "Hustle Hard" came out he gets me fairly hype.
It sounds to me kinda like revving up into the verses if that makes any sense. The beat fades out and gradually comes back in leading into the verse like a gear shift. It feels like there was at least some thought put into it.
About the X6, he's actually talking about the black Rolls-Royce Phantom X6. "Black X6, -Phantom. White X6 look like'a panda." It's more or less a brag about having 2 of the same expensive car in 2 different colors.... like a panda. One presumably to "pull up" and handle his business in as it were. Then the other that's either just for show, or for blending in with during the day. I think it might also be a double entendre as well. There's a stylized panda ski-mask (like the one at the end of the video) that's become popular with the "weird looking thug aesthetic" crowd. Especially amongst those that frequent sites like Tumblr, where rappers like Future and Desiigner thrive. As a side note, even though he didn't say it, "Life Designer" could be clever if he used it in the proper context. Especially within a song that's as braggy as this one. Example: "Influential like a god, I'ma a young Life Designer Greatest all time, all time bend to me... Bitches take a knee on'a cypher with the sire, Catch a gut check, cash it in like retirement." He'd have to slow down his flow to something more akin to Pusha T's on "Unbreakable," or even make it choppy like Migos' on "Chinatown," but it would still work. :)
I'm thinking he was right with the choppa being gun, and oscar tying into being grouchy, and you're right with Grammy being a gram. So it in essence means "I shoot people who try to steal my drugs" or something like that.
Here's what Desiigner has to say about the meaning of that lyric. _"The “choppa go Oscar for Grammy” was more of an exaggeration. It was just life. I don’t even know life. It was thinking about Grammys. I can’t even explain. The man above blessed me. I can see now the Grammy. Everything I’m saying in my song is coming to life."_ Source: genius.com/8664533
I think he's referring to "Oscar" as in the South African athlete Oscar Pistorious who gunned down his girlfriend. Hence the "choppa" reference. Not sure if that makes the line make any more sense but I'm sure that's the Oscar he was referencing.
It could have been in reference to Oscar Wilde, so the line basically saying that he would shoot up the Grammy's. Yes it's stupid but that's the only meaning I can give it
this song is living proof of rap hegemony (look it up) and how hype and social media following are more important than the music nowadays. this song brings nothing new, same trap beat, generic trap lyrics of money, drugs, women, same fake ass gangsta video. seriously people, ask yourself: how did this song actually reach #1
you can tell hes a biased socially stupid guy cause he said gangsta video .... wtf is a gangsta video and what about that video reads gangster to anyone
i actually like panda. i love the beat and i like this guys delivery way more than future's(it remembers meof young thug a bit. both are really not lyrical but they are just fun to listen to)
I hope that's what he means by Panda, because the only "Panda cars" I know of are Ford Anglias used by the British police in the '60s and Fiat Pandas. Maybe he's just really into hideous vintage cars?
Good call on Desiigner falling off. Especially in 2016 when everyone thought he was the next big thing. You probably got cained for that at the time but you had the last laugh.
4:46 "...because I actually look at their mouth and look at the actual consonants when they speak." **in the background** "Drrrrrrrrrrrt! Drrrrrrrrrt!" (I have no clue how to phonetically spell that sound, lol)
Chopper go oscar for grammy. So like hes using wordplay with grammy's like grams of drugs. And the chopper going oscar is like its lighting the place up its what I got. Pretty dope line for him
I like this song.....but I don't really like rap music so take that as you will. Also, Panda is UK slang for a police car and that's honestly what I thought the song was referring to.
I think the transition between kanye and desiigner was supposed to go along with the theme of Family Vs the celebrity life that is sprinkled all over tlop. It's supposed to be a hard twist between the 2 worlds
+Piña ColAda that's understandable. I heard $Ave dat money is a poor man's thrift shop. while that is true, it has a different approach to the topic of being cheap in rap music.
but him making fun and silly music is how he wants to change the genre. Most rappers take themselves to seriously. we have rappers who make deep thought provoking music, and we have the generic gangster rappers. So I think the thing that he is trying to portray that is missing is just relatability.
You'll be lucky if he reviews anything he thinks is good seeing as he's on the wavelength of a Hopsin who thinks "rap today fukin sucks bring bak reel rap!" but only focuses on the weaker parts of hip hop and turns a blind eye to the good, which there's a lot of. Anyway, he probably thinks Denzel Curry isn't "reel rap" because he doesn't rap about the guy who invented college
He's been a writer for 5 years with a few hits under his belt. He's also been working on this particular song since 2 years ago. He bought the rights to this beat from the original UK producer so his publishing appears to be in order.
I think "choppa goes Oscar for Grammy" might be referencing the need for rappers to talk about using guns in order to further their musical career. Hear me out: So violence and action in movies is generally well-received and leads to a movie doing well, and the "chopper" mentioned the song is being used for violence much like the way one would make a big impact in a movie. Now why is it going 'oscar'? For grammy. So to translate it's being used in this way for the sake of obtaining a grammy by talking about this action in the song. However desiigner isn't very bright in most of his other lyrics so I know this might not be his intended point, but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
Jeez, that whole bit about being worried about where this guy will end up now that his career has flopped and he was convicted and added to the sex offenders register for masturbating on a commercial flight.
@christopherdavidson368 Yeah, I think I saw it was on all the big blog site's social media pages (like The Source and HipHopDX, etc) the first time it made the rounds was when it first happened and then they reported on it again once he was officially charged with indecent exposure. Quote from TMZ: "According to the docs, Desiigner said he was aroused by the flight attendant and "kind of showed her, showed her, un, 'the magic stick. ' ... thinking it would give her "encouragement." BTW -- Desiigner claimed he wasn't under the influence, saying he was prescribed meds in Thailand but hadn't been taking them." Which is one of the more bizarre stories I've heard. Guy straight up MeToo'd a flight attendant in front of a plane full of people.
Here's my interpretation of Father Stretch My Hands Part I having the Panda verse wedged in: He's trying to get money for himself, but he's drowned out by commercialism. He can still occasionally get out some statements (as seen by Kanye interrupting the verse repeatedly with goofy noises)
I may be wrong here, but w/ roddy ricch: he's a member of the park village compton crips, and compton crips will often put an extra c in words that already have a c in them
I love how serious you sound at "I mean, there's this video of a panda..." xD Bless you and your commitment to letting us know what the hell goes on in most of these songs.
I can't help liking this song, the beat's the kind you can't get forget and the energy is powerful. I know there's no real meaning to it, but I still enjoy it
Exactly... it's only a bunch of ignorant hip-hop listeners who like that song. People who actually know what it means/who performs it dont listen to that shit at all.
Calm down, it's a vicious beat. People are listening for the sound and cinematic lifestyle he's emoting. You might as well hate on Dr. Octagon, NWA, or 3-6 mafia.
Maybe on pt2 it wasn't supposed to be looked at for lyrics but the way how Kanye was talking bout stuff, but then he said I'm coming back right. And if we look at Desiinger's song it's a turn up song. So we can...kinda...say that Kanye's turn up now
I like to do this thing where I imagine the filming of shots for a music video being done in complete silence apart from the sounds of shuffling clothes and the wheezing that comes with twisting your upper body roughly. Picture it from the point of view of someone standing by the side and filming the filming while standing completely still. Try it out yourself with those shots of Desiiiigner spazzing out in the street.
He's clearly done mixtapes. And in "father stretch my hands" the narrative is that the father destroyed his family in the pursuit of wealth and Desiigner's verse in this context is about how a younger man (the son) is pursuing money with gunplay and drugs and he's going pretty good for him self. But that is of course destroying his life in another way. And how he's rhyming is pretty clever and unique. His subject matter isn't anything new but he has a real style that makes ut very clear that he's written many songs and done mixtapes. He's totally beyond Future in lyrically.
Gonna be honest here: until I heard "Tiimmy Turner," I didn't ever think Desiigner sounded like Future. In fact, the first time I heard this song, I thought he was British. To this day, I don't think he sounds like Future on this song, aside from being mumbly and having a deep voice.
***** if you are going to listen to the song then listen to the song, but under the excuse of "its a party song" is fucking pathetic. the fact people need an excuse to listen to a song and not feel judged just screams sheep.
The choppa goes Oscar foe Grammys The gun goes clap- (the audience in for the Oscars clap alot)- for the Grammy (for the grams of drugs). In essence that line means he shoots people for drugs.
7:23 TLOP is about faith/family/good life vs. drugs/vice/bad life, so for father stretch my hands part 2 to contrast father stretch my hands part 1 makes sense in the context of that album.
The choppa goes oscar for grammys is a reference to the sounds a gun is making when its shooting...the oscars are about movies which are getting shot and grammys are about music because metaphorically his gun is making "music"
when he says 'wake up, versace shit, life desiigner' he means he wakes up in versace, which makes his life designer. Point I'm making is he says life, js. lol. p.s this is a party/turn up song, who cares for the lyrics anyway ;)
5:00 Did Rap Critic study linguistics in college? O.o Cause the way he’s talks about what Desiigner is saying sounds like how a phonetics professor would analyze them.
"one of the few", I disagree. There are millions of generic underground rappers, yea. But I wouldn't say "a few" aren't, unless you're going by comparison.
Well life determines your taste in music like growing up in a nice neighborhood (with mostly whites) will usually mean you like hip hop and basically white music. Hanging with black people (the hood) usually means more fast type song like rap.
Michael Arballo I heard him talk about the impossible kid on a podcast on youtube, apparently he likes his stuff. I'd like a more indepth look into stuff like Float, Music for earthworms and even daylight, or the blob.
"Chopper goes Oscar for Grammy" Means that his fully automatic weapon will "act" for "singers." "Act" meaning the gun will fire and "singers" is also what you would call a "snitch" or someone who does a crime with you and tells the police what you were both doing.
Thought it might have meant the choppa (street life) goes Oscar (main stage/blockbuster production) for Grammys. Like being a street thug has been glamor-ized and become so Hollywood just so musicians can get respect and rewarded. But I doubt he put that much thought into it. You're probably right
Maybe “the chopper go Oscar for Grammys” could be a really complicated wordplay, since the Oscars and Grammys are both prestigious awards, but then Oscar could also mean angry like Oscar the Grouch, and Grammy could mean a gram of something i.e. getting in a shootout over drugs being a high-risk-high-reward situation
Just a thought at 5:57 maybe he referring to oscar pistorious, the paralympic athlete who shot his gf. His chopper was shooting for the grammys? Idk it still doesn't make sense but just a thought
He should've called his second album "DesIIgner".
I don’t think he’s even released a second album
Wait what? He has two albums?
@@RahmaNHb It's called "L.O.D.".
@@canadmexi that's an ep lol

The reason panda became popular because half the people thought this was future
lmaoo truee bruh

That and Kanye

I dont think desiigner actually uses auto tune if you listen to him talk he sounds the same
ROYAL DR1FTER lol

Which is why I didn't believe he was from New York
“Im gonna give my family a better life, and explore my artistic creativity, and now... I HAVE SEX WITH WOMAN FROM ATLANTA”
Truer words shall never be spoken
He literally explained how it connects while simultaneously complaining about how it doesn't connect

It's crazy that his 'mumbling' rap.... is more coherent than his natural speaking. He practically speaks in cursive😂
I think that the meaning of Father Stretch My Hands Part 2 was that he tried to make money for himself, but he caved into materialism.

Whole buncha carrot-es.

He's right about the fact that a lot of underground rappers sounding the same. I have to hear a lot of that shit in Florida.
The only underground rapper from Florida I know is SpaceGhostPurrp, and his weird-ass production makes him unmistakable.
That's the nice thing about living in Sweden, our underground rap sounds different.
i have yet to find a swedish rapper that is not whack (btw är svenne)
Well, then we are listening to different rappers! Personally I love Promoe, Roffe Ruff, and more.

Kodak Black is technically underground, but he's hit the mainstream recently. His stuff is complete garbage.
I've always thought that desiigner had a stroke while recording but just said "Fuck it let the internet decide what the lyrics are"

Desiigner did copy Futures style, but you gotta admit his flow is 10x better than Futures.
Desiigner's flow and energy project fun, which is a problem I have with most "party rap" or trap rappers, they sound kind of bored. His lyrics are pretty standard, but just like Ace Hood when "Hustle Hard" came out he gets me fairly hype.
Panda. Panda panda. Panda panda panda. WE DEM BOYS!
Seriously, this song is giving me Wiz flashbacks.
It sounds to me kinda like revving up into the verses if that makes any sense. The beat fades out and gradually comes back in leading into the verse like a gear shift. It feels like there was at least some thought put into it.
Unlike We Dem Boyz however, the beat to Panda is FIRE
How about the Versace song from 2013?
Seriously, this song is giving me vietnam flashbacks.
To be fair, this song is way more complex than HOLL UP WE DEM BOYS.
About the X6, he's actually talking about the black Rolls-Royce Phantom X6.
"Black X6, -Phantom. White X6 look like'a panda."
It's more or less a brag about having 2 of the same expensive car in 2 different colors.... like a panda. One presumably to "pull up" and handle his business in as it were.

Good info..
ur dumb he is talking about a white bmw x6 with black tinted windows
Too bad his analysis is more plausible since he put more thought into his comment. You're probably right though.
The song is about a BMW X6.
Thank you. That makes a lot of sense!
An Oscar is an ounce, so I'm assuming a, "Grammy," means a gram, but that still makes NO sense in the context.
I'm thinking he was right with the choppa being gun, and oscar tying into being grouchy, and you're right with Grammy being a gram. So it in essence means "I shoot people who try to steal my drugs" or something like that.
I think it's a reference to Oscar Pistorius, the Olympic Athlete that shot his girlfriend a couple a years ago...
Here's what Desiigner has to say about the meaning of that lyric.
_"The “choppa go Oscar for Grammy” was more of an exaggeration. It was just life. I don’t even know life. It was thinking about Grammys. I can’t even explain. The man above blessed me. I can see now the Grammy. Everything I’m saying in my song is coming to life."_

Given what's happened to Desiigner in the years since, he probably should have watched this video, as a warning. Oh, well.
Boy howdy...and it somehow got worse..
I hope that's what he means by Panda, because the only "Panda cars" I know of are Ford Anglias used by the British police in the '60s and Fiat Pandas. Maybe he's just really into hideous vintage cars?
Now that would be a game changer.
Pandas are not hideous lol. James May drives his Panda more then all the Ferraris he owns.

You'll be lucky if he reviews anything he thinks is good seeing as he's on the wavelength of a Hopsin who thinks "rap today fukin sucks bring bak reel rap!" but only focuses on the weaker parts of hip hop and turns a blind eye to the good, which there's a lot of. Anyway, he probably thinks Denzel Curry isn't "reel rap" because he doesn't rap about the guy who invented college

+Mint Bren Hmm, probably the guy I replied to
Desiigner is not from the South tho. He's an East Coaster biting trap music.
he's from bed-stuy brooklyn
his parents are from the south tho
+Carlo Emoticon so the fuck what? He's an East Coaster biting a sound from an area he doea not know well.
My dad is from Chicago but I don't rep drill. Also I'm white... and I don't rap.
So we can say the South is biting the East Coast for having rap at all?
I thought he was saying "insufferable" in there somewhere, and was like "oh cool, a trap rapper with an extensive vocabulary." I was wrong.
I love when rap critic gets so into the stupid lyrics and then frustrated that there's nothing deep to be found. it never gets old.
He's been a writer for 5 years with a few hits under his belt. He's also been working on this particular song since 2 years ago. He bought the rights to this beat from the original UK producer so his publishing appears to be in order.
I think "choppa goes Oscar for Grammy" might be referencing the need for rappers to talk about using guns in order to further their musical career. Hear me out: So violence and action in movies is generally well-received and leads to a movie doing well, and the "chopper" mentioned the song is being used for violence much like the way one would make a big impact in a movie. Now why is it going 'oscar'? For grammy. So to translate it's being used in this way for the sake of obtaining a grammy by talking about this action in the song. However desiigner isn't very bright in most of his other lyrics so I know this might not be his intended point, but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
Jeez, that whole bit about being worried about where this guy will end up now that his career has flopped and he was convicted and added to the sex offenders register for masturbating on a commercial flight.
Wait seriously? And also eww
@christopherdavidson368 Yeah, I think I saw it was on all the big blog site's social media pages (like The Source and HipHopDX, etc) the first time it made the rounds was when it first happened and then they reported on it again once he was officially charged with indecent exposure. Quote from TMZ: "According to the docs, Desiigner said he was aroused by the flight attendant and "kind of showed her, showed her, un, 'the magic stick. ' ... thinking it would give her "encouragement." BTW -- Desiigner claimed he wasn't under the influence, saying he was prescribed meds in Thailand but hadn't been taking them." Which is one of the more bizarre stories I've heard. Guy straight up MeToo'd a flight attendant in front of a plane full of people.
Here's my interpretation of Father Stretch My Hands Part I having the Panda verse wedged in:
He's trying to get money for himself, but he's drowned out by commercialism. He can still occasionally get out some statements (as seen by Kanye interrupting the verse repeatedly with goofy noises)
Why does he have two “i’s”? Same reason Roddy Ricch has two “c’s” and Megan Thee Stallion has two “e’s” , no reason at all
I may be wrong here, but w/ roddy ricch: he's a member of the park village compton crips, and compton crips will often put an extra c in words that already have a c in them
I love how serious you sound at "I mean, there's this video of a panda..." xD Bless you and your commitment to letting us know what the hell goes on in most of these songs.
"Man, The Life of Pablo is a weird-ass album"
Sums it up pretty well
Can you do Ill mind of Hopsin 8?
Song is perfect
THERE"S AN EIGHT!!!!!!!!!!! GIMME GIMME
Gay
+Luis Cumplido hopsin is pretty decent dude
Matt Bueron no
4 years on since this video came out, time to check up. Does anybody still know who Desiigner is? I know spellchecker certainly doesn't.
screw it. I'm gonna keep calling him "Des-eye-eye-ner".
The whole "trying to make a better life but being taken down by the materialistic forces of society" is what I got from Father Stretch My Hands.
You should do Ultimate by Denzel Curry. Or just about any song from Imperial. Or the whole Imperial album. He's like a blend of trap and lyricism
Imperial was fire, best hip hop mixtape so far this year imo.
+CarthAnne by far. Sorry Chano
+CarthAnne true
He isn't a blend with Trap his beats are Cloud Rap beats
I think denzel curry is the shit
I can't help liking this song, the beat's the kind you can't get forget and the energy is powerful. I know there's no real meaning to it, but I still enjoy it
Plus, the new video just added even more energy with Desiigner just throwing verses like a crazy man
Exactly... it's only a bunch of ignorant hip-hop listeners who like that song. People who actually know what it means/who performs it dont listen to that shit at all.
Calm down, it's a vicious beat. People are listening for the sound and cinematic lifestyle he's emoting. You might as well hate on Dr. Octagon, NWA, or 3-6 mafia.
Anon Brah Lol...
Yeah, and I bet your ass never heard of Dr. Octagon... sit down kid.
Maybe on pt2 it wasn't supposed to be looked at for lyrics but the way how Kanye was talking bout stuff, but then he said I'm coming back right. And if we look at Desiinger's song it's a turn up song. So we can...kinda...say that Kanye's turn up now
9:04 *Slowly rising in sound*
"And now...."
panda,panda,panda GRRERRRAAHH
I like to do this thing where I imagine the filming of shots for a music video being done in complete silence apart from the sounds of shuffling clothes and the wheezing that comes with twisting your upper body roughly. Picture it from the point of view of someone standing by the side and filming the filming while standing completely still.
Try it out yourself with those shots of Desiiiigner spazzing out in the street.
Certainly a fitting avatar to describe such a thing with.
There are edited music videos just like what you described. It's hilarious.
+MyAccount217
what are the edited videos called?
Michael Anderson look up Music Videos Without Music
He's clearly done mixtapes.
And in "father stretch my hands" the narrative is that the father destroyed his family in the pursuit of wealth and Desiigner's verse in this context is about how a younger man (the son) is pursuing money with gunplay and drugs and he's going pretty good for him self. But that is of course destroying his life in another way.
And how he's rhyming is pretty clever and unique. His subject matter isn't anything new but he has a real style that makes ut very clear that he's written many songs and done mixtapes. He's totally beyond Future in lyrically.
This song has tons of problems, but it's a great song to just blast with your friends and hype up a friday.
father stretch my hands part 2 sounds like some weird fetish porno.
Gonna be honest here: until I heard "Tiimmy Turner," I didn't ever think Desiigner sounded like Future. In fact, the first time I heard this song, I thought he was British. To this day, I don't think he sounds like Future on this song, aside from being mumbly and having a deep voice.
everything you say is correct, but it is a party song soo the lyrics are not meant to be taken seriously
I guess a majority of chart songs are party songs then haha
Of course man.
the worst excuse in the book.
"party songs"
pathetic
*****
if you are going to listen to the song then listen to the song, but under the excuse of "its a party song" is fucking pathetic.
the fact people need an excuse to listen to a song and not feel judged just screams sheep.
+Hachi Roku Yeah, party song is not a good excuse bc even you can do party songs wrong. if it bangs hard asf I'll listen to it regardless.
this aged incredible well r.i.p desiigners career
What happened? Was he friends with Epstein?
@@richardgadberry8398 No, he just wasn't necessary after the one hit so he was ejected
The choppa goes Oscar foe Grammys
The gun goes clap- (the audience in for the Oscars clap alot)- for the Grammy (for the grams of drugs). In essence that line means he shoots people for drugs.
for*
I'd be surprised if that's what he meant, because that's lowkey lyrical.
The Grammy has to be a reference to drugs.
i believe that coz i remember the battle rapper qleen paper having a line like clap so much like i brought a grammy in which is kinda similar
check what he said it was on genius...it wasn't lyrical
7:23 TLOP is about faith/family/good life vs. drugs/vice/bad life, so for father stretch my hands part 2 to contrast father stretch my hands part 1 makes sense in the context of that album.
The choppa goes oscar for grammys is a reference to the sounds a gun is making when its shooting...the oscars are about movies which are getting shot and grammys are about music because metaphorically his gun is making "music"
Vladimir Klizschko that’s awesome
when he says 'wake up, versace shit, life desiigner' he means he wakes up in versace, which makes his life designer.
Point I'm making is he says life, js. lol.
p.s this is a party/turn up song, who cares for the lyrics anyway ;)
5:00 Did Rap Critic study linguistics in college? O.o Cause the way he’s talks about what Desiigner is saying sounds like how a phonetics professor would analyze them.
Never heard of Rap Critic before.
*watches video*
annnnnd subscribed.
The “ii” in his name uses Roman Numerals to symbolize the number of songs he made prior to his number one single.
He looks like Julius from Saints Row
AniGAWD Yuriki oh my gawd
You should check out $uicideboy$, one of the few underground rappers/rap groups that aren't offensively generic.
same w/ pouya
bones
+Slashwit dat808 #TeamSESH
"one of the few", I disagree. There are millions of generic underground rappers, yea. But I wouldn't say "a few" aren't, unless you're going by comparison.
they sound the same as every other rapper tho
I hate and love this song. It's so weird. It's like I know it's bad, but I still cannot stop listening to it. It's like a guilty pleasure.
"Listen to the underground rapper in your city, bet they sound the same as future"
Well, i actually live in the same state as Joyner so, 1-0 there pal
joyner isn't underground anymore
And the same state that produced Marky Mark.
I live in California everything has a Latin or funk sound.
Damn Rap Critic predicted the Desiigner fall off
"Man, Life Of Pablo is a weird ass album."
You ain't lying.
I'm glad I'm not the only who doesn't get or like this song.
Well life determines your taste in music like growing up in a nice neighborhood (with mostly whites) will usually mean you like hip hop and basically white music. Hanging with black people (the hood) usually means more fast type song like rap.
Hope that wasn't racist
+Gabriel Luke So you say that hiphop isnt rap?
+Gabriel Luke Rap is a big majority of what I listened to. I'm half black.
I like the beat, and that's my reason for listening to like 90% of the shit rap these days.
Two reviews within seven days??? Thank you. (:
We don't have a hip hop station where I'm from. :'(
If they are anything like Columbus radio stations, you aren't missing anything.
where do you live?
dayton is worse lol
+N/A Cleveland is good tho
+Deo LeBrundo I'm from Ireland and we have NO famous rappers but if you know could you recommend
4:16 what in name of all that is good, is this
Please do Aesop rock... I'd be really interested in what you have to say.
Shaun Fowler Mccreight I feel like he would actually get aes.
Michael Arballo I heard him talk about the impossible kid on a podcast on youtube, apparently he likes his stuff. I'd like a more indepth look into stuff like Float, Music for earthworms and even daylight, or the blob.
"Chopper goes Oscar for Grammy" Means that his fully automatic weapon will "act" for "singers." "Act" meaning the gun will fire and "singers" is also what you would call a "snitch" or someone who does a crime with you and tells the police what you were both doing.
Thought it might have meant the choppa (street life) goes Oscar (main stage/blockbuster production) for Grammys. Like being a street thug has been glamor-ized and become so Hollywood just so musicians can get respect and rewarded. But I doubt he put that much thought into it. You're probably right
Jayden Land I think we're both right have a great day
finally I been waiting for this critique
"That Choppa go Oscar for Grammy"- his gun will act out for drugs. Wordplay.
Maybe “the chopper go Oscar for Grammys” could be a really complicated wordplay, since the Oscars and Grammys are both prestigious awards, but then Oscar could also mean angry like Oscar the Grouch, and Grammy could mean a gram of something i.e. getting in a shootout over drugs being a high-risk-high-reward situation
The chopper goes oscar for grammy.
The gun acts for him to get the prize
1:33
damn. i like the song but man that was spot on
Life of Pablo is good tho...
***** How, sway
While I personally like tlop....... If someone were to say to me "that shit's trash" i couldn't really argue
+J Storm you not wavy
Well to be fair, he didn't say it was good or bad, just "weird."
His reaction to FSMH P2's beat change was my exact reaction
Just a thought at 5:57 maybe he referring to oscar pistorious, the paralympic athlete who shot his gf. His chopper was shooting for the grammys? Idk it still doesn't make sense but just a thought
Desiigner may have only 3 songs recorded but he apparently wrote/sold hooks for other rappers, watch the before desiigner was famous
