Rolling Stone trying so hard to stay relevant; resorting to something as outlandish as ranking Invasion of Privacy as the 16th best hip hop album ever just for attention
Here's the thing when someone says they don't like a certain artist (Adding onto the first bad take that Kanye West isn't good.) Most of the time, it's either they don't have a good reference point to jump into an artist and understand where they're coming from artistically, or they are just lazy to do the work and are closed minded. I was a diehard rock/metal fan before I started getting into hip-hop/rap. But rock even to this day is my reference point. In order to transition into the hip-hop/rap realm I had to get into artists that helped me transition into that understanding. For me coincidentally that was the Grammy's performance with Imagine Dragons & Kendrick. Somehow down the grapevine of getting into the genre I finally started getting into Kanye, despite me always hearing him on the radio. Yeezus especially was a great transition point of my understanding. Another important factor that helps me understand an artist is knowing their backstory. 99% of the time if I didn't like an artist it's usually because I didn't know their backstory yet either through investigation or watching various video essays on them. So liking and getting into an artist really does depend on reference point, and how much the individual is willing to accept something different that they're not yet used to. I remember countless times when I was getting into certain artists having a feeling that I initially didn’t like what I was hearing because it was so different, but knowing deep down there was something there, something I was missing. So I’d often force myself to keep listening and digging until I understood and liked it. Nowadays I refer to this feeling as being on the same wavelength. Once that switch in your mind clicks, when it goes “Oh, now I get where this artist is coming when they make this type of music”, it’s much easier to listen to their music because you’re coming at it from an angle where you can understand and appreciate it. Of course it does take a lot of time commitment and understanding, but if you really like and are curious about the artist it shouldn't feel like work. Using this type of thinking when getting into artists has really allowed me to broaden my music taste over the past few years, and fully appreciate the importance of an artists work, as well as their certain place within music’s history and niches.
Agree. When I first started listening to rap (Biggie, Wayne, etc), I disliked many rap artists like Kendrick, DOOM, etc without ever listening to them, let alone the 'mumble' rappers as well. It was ignorance and unwillingness to accept. Then I realized it was pointless to hate on them & now I'm huge fans of Kdot, DOOM, Uzi, 21 Savage, etc
I agree with u, liking new artists and new music to u depends on reference points and getting used to these new sounds. And as u said, it takes a lot of commitment on your part as a listener to really start accepting this new taste let alone loving it, and tbh I suffer a lot with these points even though I'm aware of them, I find it really difficult to start liking genres that haven't appealed to me in the past even though I try all the time to get used to them.
7 months late to say I disagree. If you said saying an artist is bad I would understand, but you can understand plenty about an artists and still not like their music. Death grips is praised. I tried to listen to their music multiple times and just don't like it.
The worst take for me was the Invasion of Privacy one. The other ones were from every day people that may or may not have been trolling. Rolling Stone is a major music publication outlet that supposedly prides itself on keeping the integrity of music alive for their consumers. What made the take even worse was that it was a collective/consensus opinion, not just one writer with an extreme bias towards Cardi. A group of people that get paid to write about and critique music really came together and agreed that Invasion of Privacy was a better rap record than Illmatic (using influence as the criteria as if Illmatic isn't arguably the most influential record of all time). It could be due to baiting for engagement like Luc said, which is sad considering they should't have to succumb to click bait material given their already global reach.
The 2 worst rap takes I’ve heard (both within the last couple months) we’re 1. Denzel curry has not made anything good since 2015 and 2. Kendrick’s new album was just “trying to do the Kanye thing”
@@dr.stanley4317 if you can think of a single other justification for anyone to think Tom Macdonald is better than Kendrick Lamar, let me know. Kendrick objectively clears Tom in every single category. Tom spouts a very different political ideology than Kendrick though.
Been the most underrated podcast since the beginning they finally getting a little recognition can’t wait to see what’s to come next!! Keep thriving and making a loyal community on the way!!
"CLB was a good album" hahaha, no It's not, but it ain't bad either, Just boring. Poorly executed by the leading artist, filled with fillers, carried by the features and lacks cohesion. It's okay to like the album, tastes are subjective, but to classify it as "good", damn that's a reach. No wonder why the artist keeps declining artistically...
@@mohammadali-ud8ye Because people like the guy I replied to kept saying it was good after multiple listens so I was trying to see what I was missing, turns out I was missing nothing and I can confirm it’s a bad album no matter how much you listen to it, you know music isn’t hard to consume right? Did you know can play it 24/7 while doing anything in your normal day to day life? It’s not the same as watching a tv show, listening to an album 7 times is nothing for me
@@spiderjeff5845 we clearly consume music differently cause any Album I’ve played 7 times is good if not great. If I think something is that mid or even trash it’s not getting more than 2 spins from me unless something Happens to catch me in a diff vibe. Either way I’d call CLB a decent Album but def not great
Please do some content on Dave from the UK. I think you would both really enjoy it and it would diversify your content well. I believe he is the next Kendrick and will reach the global stage after his next album
Love your content, keep up the great work guys, always a great day when nfr drops. PS: that Ben Shapiro take is honestly top 3 dumbest thing I have ever heard (not just music, just in anything), I hate when people say hip hop isn’t music because they don’t like it. You don’t have to like the genre but don’t go around discrediting it and saying it isn’t music and it’s worth nothing.
I would even argue that Rap is rythmically (I hate this word) more interesting than most genres, and far more versatile than rock for example. In Rock you will always hear a guitar, live drums and a base guitar, but in rap you can include violins, also guitars, synths and etc. Rap is far more boundless. And since 50 Cent it became normal to incorparate melodic elements in delivery, and those melodies are literally harmonizing with the melodies within the instrumental, so there you have your "3 core elements of music" And when it comes to lyrics rap is far more dense than other genres, making it lyrically more valuable. Rap might not be music theoretically complex as other genres, but complexity doesn't equal being good. I would even argue that it's far more impressive that Rap achieved such mainstream success, while being this "simple" or rather while focusing on the most important parts of what makes a song good.
People will trash on Hip Hop for being "simple" but will praise The Beatles for making songs like Yellow Submarine and Oblidabla which have like 3 chord progressions lolol. Playing an instrument doesn't make music any more complex
I completely agree with you but things like synths and strings can also be included in rock music, anything off of angles by the strokes and Tonight, Tonight by the Smashing Pumpkins are the first examples I thought of.
I love rap and I also love rock since I grew up on it. But your comment leads me to believe you haven’t listened to much rock other than what’s in the mainstream to be forming an opinion like this. Saying you’ll always hear guitar, bass, and drums in rock is like saying you’ll always hear someone spitting over a beat in rap. That’s what differentiates the genres. Rock can also contain strings, synths, and a wide variety of experimentalism much like rap can
Hot take: female rappers are overhated. Throughout the past 30 years, there have been so many clever and insightful female mc's such as queen latifah, lauryn hill, and most recently little simz. Mainstream female artists like cardi b and megan thee stallion make ppl think that every female rapper is like them when theyre not
There is some really good female rappers I agree, but most of these female rappers that are amazing are usually not mainstream as more mainstream ones are usually the meh ones. I think that because of that people assume most female rappers do the same thing as the mainstream? I don't think there is currently a female artist who's ever been more influential as some other male rappers, but I do think that they is a lot of good ones! Like Little Simz, Lauryn Hill, M.I.A, Noname, and much more. I do agree tho, there should be some female rappers that should be getting more praise for their work, and I do think there is much more hate on female rappers
That rolling stone take is most likely as a result of filling ethical quotas. But then again not having nothing was the same in top 200 could also just mean that they’re stupid
I really want another lil wayne album funeral and carter 5 have grown on me immensely since release. The dudes a straight up goat and has bars for days also I've been listening to him since i was a little kid he is definitely a legend imo.
Worst take I’ve ever heard is just horrible So my friend was asking what my favorite songs were by my favorite artists cuz he wanted to start getting into music. I tell him my favorite Kanye song is Devil In A New Dress. He comes back to school the next day and told me “that song sucks, it’s like a 3/10.” I still can’t get over how bad that take is
There is no point trying to argue with a YB fan their impossible, just know that literally only his fans believe his better then Kendrick and that the general public knows Kendrick’s better
My friend refuses to listen to Kendrick Lamar because he says his music is “boring” and his voice sounds terrible. Keep in mind he’s only listened to HUMBLE out of his entire catalog (still a great song)
Music definitely doesn’t need melody or harmony. Music doesn’t even need lyrics. But rhythm 🥁 is very subjective, and that depends on your taste in music.
When people say Kanye has bad music it just means that they have never listened to a single Kanye song in their life and only see him as a celebrity and not an artist.
Never been a big fan of Kendrick but I still respect him and see some of his songs good. But when I listen I can tell how people can enjoy it. It’s just never been my favorite but I still think he’s a top 10 rapper of all time because of his influence and the respect I have for him.
The worst take I’ve ever heard is my Dad saying “Tom Macdonald is a better rapper than Kendrick because Tom can ride a beat better, has better flows than, and has a better voice then Kendrick.” I think he went 0-4 on that lol
The guy that said “Lil Wayne has forgettable Music” I think is confusing the Lil Part with another Lil. Lil Wayne is the #1 Rapper in my opinion, other can say he’s not which I can’t disagree it’s a matter of opinion, every has their right to it but man don’t got forgettable music sorry, he don’t!
@@natsumemika8434 yeah my bad I made this before it released and it’s safe to say I liked it a lot, however one good album doesn’t make you Kendrick Lamar or some shit. If stays this consistent then he’d get my respect
this my hot take that ppl consider it’s bad take: juice wrld and lil peep overrated. juice wrld is good at freestyles, but music is mid af and ppl be putting him with the goats. lil peep maybe not my genre
Most People Who Say Kanye Doesn't Make Good Music Is Simply Because They Have Never Listened To His Music, That Was Case For Me I Used To Be A Kanye Hater, Now He's My Favorite Artist Of All Time
Also Ben Shapiro: "Listening to Mozart. That some people listen to rap rather than Mozart is objective proof that some people are stupid." I don't think one can get any more pretentious than that when it comes to music unless they've time traveled from the late 1700's. Also like people from the 1700's, he's pretty much showing he's racist without explicitly saying it.
No disrespect to Yachty but I agree with the take in the video. For me, his voice does sound like a frog is in his throat and it makes listening to most of his music impossible. I see his appeal but I personally can’t enjoy music when the voice is that distracting.
I think a very true statement is that Kanye is not a good rapper and performer, the only thing he's good at is sound selection, production and genre bending, and he's influence is known only because he kept repeating it, that's a classic PR model, ye brainwashed you into stans 💀
I genuinely don’t care for Kanye’s rapping or singing. I think his voice is annoying and his actual ability to rap is mid at best while his singing is worse. I will agree that he’s a fantastic producer but I’ll listen to lots of other artists before him.

Saying clb is a good album is another example of a horrendous take
The worst take is saying NFR Podcast has skips
Man yall and bobbalam are the two best people that talk about music in my opinion on youtube
I question Kanye's sanity, but I can't question his musical talent. He objectively has one of the best discographies in all of music.
This one guy said Damn>>>>tpab, tpab has only 2 good songs, mbdtf has one good song which is overrated and graduation is the only valid Kanye album
Nothing Was The Same a Classic? Lol No 😭 that's one of the worst takes I've heard
Luca’s Ben Shapiro impersonation is underrated 🤣
🔥video guys. Congrats on almost 100k.
Besides Lil Wayne, the take about Lil rappers ain’t bad
Extremely common Ben Shapiro L
I like when they don't fight 🤝💖
The guy that said “Lil Wayne has forgettable Music” I think is confusing the Lil Part with another Lil. Lil Wayne is the #1 Rapper in my opinion, other can say he’s not which I can’t disagree it’s a matter of opinion, every has their right to it but man don’t got forgettable music sorry, he don’t!
When you got artists like blueface out here you cannot say logic is the worst
I have a hot take, I can't listen to Lil Wayne because of his voice. I get his influence and talent but his voice is just horrible for me.
Well, my friend has the incredible take that is: Kendrick, ye and abel all suck. Ironically he also refuses to listen to any albums by them.
Because he thinks they suck
Love your vids. Keep it up 🙌
Give Yachty his respect
Fax
Why, he’s mid at best and I don’t think that’s a hot take, he makes boring commercial rap over boring instrumentals
what do u think about his new album
@@Prodbyjah464 well now there’s there his new album
@@natsumemika8434 yeah my bad I made this before it released and it’s safe to say I liked it a lot, however one good album doesn’t make you Kendrick Lamar or some shit. If stays this consistent then he’d get my respect
Your vid’s are mad entertaining high af 👍
That DOOM take is trolling ain’t no way. DOOM has at least 2 perfect 10s
Bro most of madvillainy is just talking
@@brickburger8362 when you think about it, most music is someone talking Into a microphone 🤯
this my hot take that ppl consider it’s bad take: juice wrld and lil peep overrated. juice wrld is good at freestyles, but music is mid af and ppl be putting him with the goats. lil peep maybe not my genre
juice is definitely overrated
Dude definitely was clout chasing with the Tom McDonald comment 😂😂
Most People Who Say Kanye Doesn't Make Good Music Is Simply Because They Have Never Listened To His Music, That Was Case For Me I Used To Be A Kanye Hater, Now He's My Favorite Artist Of All Time
That’s the Laval Rockets hat? If so what a gem
I hate that Kanye argument, so what I don’t like his music? I can say what I want ab anybody it’s my opinion?😂
2:34: Lil Yachty, Lil Tjay, Lil Skies, Lil Keed, Lil Gotit, Lil Baller 4L, etc. Many Lil rappers who I enjoy a lot
"yeat is playboi carti's son" - fantano
Ken Carson and Destroy Lonely are his kids
Lil durk named himself lil because his dad was big durk a cocaine dealer
Also Ben Shapiro: "Listening to Mozart. That some people listen to rap rather than Mozart is objective proof that some people are stupid."
I don't think one can get any more pretentious than that when it comes to music unless they've time traveled from the late 1700's. Also like people from the 1700's, he's pretty much showing he's racist without explicitly saying it.
We don’t claim Alijah as an E*lijah
My friend said lil baby is a better lyricist than j Cole
Valid + real + ive never heard either
@@nickelwrangler446listen to pi, Johnny P’s caddy, the climb back, middle child, and you will understand how crazy it is
I mean, I don't personally enjoy Kanye West's music but I wouldn't say it's bad.
Of course that Kanye take is bad. Best discography in rap man
No disrespect to Yachty but I agree with the take in the video. For me, his voice does sound like a frog is in his throat and it makes listening to most of his music impossible. I see his appeal but I personally can’t enjoy music when the voice is that distracting.
Wym yachty is fire
i will die on the hill that JIK is a good album
I think a very true statement is that Kanye is not a good rapper and performer, the only thing he's good at is sound selection, production and genre bending, and he's influence is known only because he kept repeating it, that's a classic PR model, ye brainwashed you into stans 💀
You’re Eternal Atake and Red and White takes better be on here
Eternal Atake did get poor reception tho
Hot Take - ready to die is better then illmatic
Agreed
Valid take.
But Yachty does kinda sound like Kermit
Agreed. But I like it. He makes it work well.
I genuinely don’t care for Kanye’s rapping or singing. I think his voice is annoying and his actual ability to rap is mid at best while his singing is worse. I will agree that he’s a fantastic producer but I’ll listen to lots of other artists before him.
Kanye is not good😂 with no explanation… funniest take
