Re: Why I dislike the new album
I'd rather hear them preach about politics than hear you preach about your lame opinion.
But that's just me.

You get the gold star for lamest cliche with that bridge shit kid. Also that chemo comment was a low blow, just cause they do yoga and are gray haired you wanna break bad on their appearances. Wait 'til your half dead ass is all growed up and 40. You might end up looking kinda haggard. You're right though, you are entitled to your opinion. Just like I am. I dig the Beasties getting up and saying something with gravity. fuck all this played out bullshit people are rapping about these days. I will always listen to them because of their unique blend of pure emcee style, political commentary, crowd hyping, throwback rhyme style and the fact that their relationship has never strained and the result is dope album after dope album. My beef with To The Five Boroughs is the production, the switch from Caldato's production technique to more computer based work with Duro is very inorganic and a huge split from their trademark sound from '98 and earlier. 6 years was way too long to wait and the new album was an instant classic, but I'd like to see a return to that style I described. In regards to the quote in the Times from Kelefa Sanneh, that dude should be blacklisted from rap reviews, he both talks and writes about it in a very out-of-touch, mechanical manner, and never strikes me as a hip hop fan. |

Re: Why I dislike the new album
For basically any beastie boys album you have to be in a certain mood to listen to them. For example right aobut now and for the past few days i have been in the mood to listen to ill communications last week i felt like TT5B. Its all a matter of what era you are feeling

Re: Why I dislike the new album
I don't like TTFB, buts thats only because I don't care too much for how basic it sounds. If you listen to hello nasty, you notice how much shit they jammed on that album and your jaw drops (or at least it should). All that production and detail is what I expected on ttfb, but what I got was straightup hiphop with mediocre beats and a very few layers. I liked hello nasty because the music behind the lyrics were just as good as the beasties themselves. ttfb isn't bad (ch-check it out kicks ass), but its definately not as badass as it shouldve been considering how long i waited for it to come out.

Re: Why I dislike the new album
How many threads is this now, from someone bitching about the boys being 'preachy' or for having political lyrics? And again, from someone who signed up specifically to bitch about it...

Re: Why I dislike the new album
Admittedly, after the very first listen I felt a little let down for some reason. However, it has since grown on me big time as I realize the importance of their message and also their Inexhaustible tallent for innovation and humour.
Musically, they have minimalized the sound to the bare essence of early 80s hip hop drum machine driven beats, amalgamating snippets of their previous albums as well. Lyrically, they have matured just enough I thought, some songs can appear to be border-line preachy however, never cross that line, seemingly just enought to bite the ignorant and brainwashed on their arses. Two thumbs up from me as I await their next release, which I think will not take as long this time round. MD

Re: Why I dislike the new album
Hi everyone,
Come on, why so much trouble about AN ALBUM?? Don't you get anything else to do?? If you don't like it, the only solution is DON T LISTEN TO IT!! It's not difficult I'm sure you can do it!! It's too political? Go buy a Steven Seagal CD (I swear I saw this!! Wouaahaha!!!) if it's too clever for you... You know what? I have a better solution, a radical one: IF YOU DON T LIKE IT THEN HEY FUCK YOU!!! Voilààààà.... Peace all over the world Julie. P.S: go to the movie to see the new Michael Moore movie Farenheit 9/11 ... P.P.S: maybe not those who don't like TT5B, it might be too political for them... and everybody knows that politic is stupid and not useful and that we don't have to care about it ... but politicians rule the world for us don't forget that...

Re: Why I dislike the new album
If the b-boys didn't change their sound from one album to the next, they'd be the Rolling Stones or Bruce Springsteen.
You can tell that the boys are passionate about the music they make. You can hear it on every album, every ep, and every b-side. They love what they do. Thats because they are never stagnant. They make the music that they are passionate about when. If they tried to record license to ill everytime, they would have been a gimmick. Instead they are one of the most consistently innovative groups ever. As artists, change should not only be expected, but it should be encouraged. If you don't like it, put it away and fire up a favorite. |
