Posted by Big Kuntry, Fri Apr-08-16 11:59 AM

Posted by BrooklynWHAT, Fri Apr-08-16 02:42 PM
if he even has a 2nd track.
fetty wap had months worth of hits just sitting on soundcloud when trap queen blew up.

13001456, They like the song. I don't know if they ride for him like that.
Posted by micMajestic, Fri Apr-08-16 02:52 PM
I could tell people were really riding for Bobby Shmurda & them, even though their sound was somewhat derivative of a sound from a different region.
I think people need to hear more songs from him before they decide.
|
13001489, am I the only one who remembers Future was a copy when he started?

Posted by tomjohn29, Fri Apr-08-16 08:41 PM
and I'm not even a Future fan...but Chainz is more off the block of wayne than Future is
and pain actually sings.....
|
13001667, at the time future started they owned the style

I have no idea why you'd minimize that, but *shrug*

13001669, influenced...yes, copy no
Posted by tomjohn29, Fri Apr-08-16 09:00 PM
all I'm saying
Future was not a copy
influenced yes
Future was and is unique
which is why the designer shit is so flagrant
|
13001670, he wasn't even unique on 'Racks'
Posted by Rjcc, Fri Apr-08-16 09:10 PM
arguing that he was overall unique when there was a dude rapping just like him on the same track is bizarre

13001675, you do know Future wrote that whole record?
Posted by tomjohn29, Fri Apr-08-16 09:31 PM

13018243, wrote WHAT?!
Posted by infin8, Mon May-09-16 10:37 AM
slermed-out gibberish and near-rhymes?
c'mon man.
when you say 'wrote that whole record'....thass like Ja-Rule writin'
baybeeeeeeh over and over again.
are they hits? hmmm okay.
are they 'of substance'? prolly not.
|
13001672, To be fair, Cher used Autotune at that distorted level....
Posted by The Wordsmith, Fri Apr-08-16 09:18 PM
....even before T-Pain. I'd say that Pain using it fully throughout songs/albums instead of partially and making it popular is the only claim he can make.
Since 1976
|
13001673, Copy and fusion are two diff things
Posted by Heinz, Fri Apr-08-16 09:28 PM
I agree he's a fusion act. He's not a copy of anything tho.
It's like Bryson Tiller is a copy of PND. PND is a fusion of Drake, 40 and even Future sometimes. *shrugs*
But your og statement about Future is entirely wrong
|
13001714, ^pretty much everything you said

13018853, he's definitely not original
Posted by Rjcc, Tue May-10-16 10:43 AM
the handwringing over whether or not desiigner is ripping off something that's not even the original of its own style is hilarious.

13018198, Hmmm it's interesting
Posted by 13Rose, Mon May-09-16 09:35 AM
He clearly jacks Future's flow but hearing him speak it seems that his voice is the same. This is what happens when we lose regional pride. The only thing Brooklyn about this guy that I can see is "That's A Fact".
|
13018206, he talks like he was roommates w/ dudes from ATL, STL, & PG county

13018591, This dude...smh. New single (link)
Posted by PimpTrickGangstaClik, Mon May-09-16 07:15 PM
Future probably heard this and thought "When the fuck did I record this?"
I'm so fail thirsty right now lol. Kanye better not mess around and make this the song of the summer

13019886, "panda" video
Posted by bearfield, Wed May-11-16 03:23 PM
if you have tidal: http://listen.tidal.com/video/60260840
else: http://pitchfork.com/news/65009-watch-desiigners-panda-video-co-starring-kanye-west/
fantastic video. i may be on board. goddammit
there is something about the juxtaposition of classic gritty NYC rap video shit (dudes in leather jackets and hoodies smoking blunts outside of project buildings, dimly lit hallways, various acts of violence) and desiinger's goofy dancing and dabbing that makes this work for me. it's also possible that i'm being tricked into thinking it's a good video because off how well shot it is

13032863, His inspiration for "I got broads in Atlanta" was Facebook
Posted by atruhead, Sat Jun-11-16 07:39 PM
http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/magazine-feature/7400285/desiigner-on-panda-difficult-past-kanye-west-advice
“I’ve never been to Atlanta,” he admits sheepishly. Barely old enough to be called a millennial, the Brooklyn rapper born Sidney Selby III, 19, cites a more prosaic inspiration: a girl he met on Facebook. “We never met in person,” he says. “She just said she was from ATL, so I was like, ‘All right — I got broads in Atlanta.’ It’s real life, you feel me? I put real-life sh*t in my songs.”
|

dwindling seems premature.
if/when a second song, or full album, or appearance flops, then sure, but even the bit part on that Champions song seems to be working out so far
