By the looks of Hodgy's twitter it's fake. Throwing me off though 'cause unless someone hacked other accounts, I don't see why Tyler The Creator's account has a link to Earl's twitter (which has info about new stuff).

2659640, Nevermind Posted by lakai336, Wed Feb-08-12 11:06 PM
I'm thinking considering the new song was really posted after 50k..it might be for real this time. It looks like there certainly regenerating the hype machine, being intentionally mysterious and such.

2659660, LMAO Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Feb-09-12 12:56 AM
Demanding 50K followers to release a shitty song?
WTF is wrong with these niggas?
This is how you reintroduce Earl?

2659667, I'm Digging That "Home" Joint Posted by Dj Joey Joe, Thu Feb-09-12 01:36 AM
It's that random spit that I would expect from Earl, hope this is just the tip of the iceberg for his comeback recording career.
|
2659707, Its a very anticlimactic return Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Feb-09-12 07:55 AM
>It's that random spit that I would expect from Earl, hope >this is just the tip of the iceberg for his comeback recording >career.
Like, THAT is how you return?
LOL
Its basically a freestyle that any rapper with decent wordplay could spit
And the twitter follower thing is extremely corny
|
2659709, Are you really that mad that Joey likes the song? Posted by boyoucrazy, Thu Feb-09-12 08:10 AM
|
2659732, Oh, nah, its just not a very good song Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Feb-09-12 09:31 AM
Don't be upset with me
I'm just stating facts
LOL @ this 'return'
Begging for twitter followers and releasing a shitty freestyle?
LOL

2659736, Your feelings are still hurt from a year ago?? Posted by spew120, Thu Feb-09-12 09:39 AM
OF aint shit without Earl. Now he's back, they might gather steam again.

2659739, Oh, I agree with you. But this return is Lulz Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Feb-09-12 09:43 AM
>OF aint shit without Earl. Now he's back, they might gather >steam again.
Yeah, earl is really their only hope to be musically relevant again, because right now they are a clothing and entertainment collective, which is fine
But their music has been awful in the past year
Earl is their hope to come back musically
This "song" is a bad look, though
And the begging for twitter followers? LOL
That is as Anti-OF a strategy as there is
We liked them because they gave nary a fuck about anything but being themselves

There are mentions of this return not being OF-related.
It looks like Leila Steinberg (Tupac's former mentor/manager) and Ray Luv (old-school bay area rapper/Pac and Mac Dre affiliate/etc.) are somehow involved with Earl's "comeback" through a non-profit organization named AIM (Alternative Intervention Models) which visited him in Samoa.

2659876, Honestly this is exactly the kind of return Posted by Kosa12, Thu Feb-09-12 03:05 PM
that I would expect from a rapper like earl, but you probably came in here ready to hate to be honest.....(No I'm not mad, before you post some shit like that)
|
2659916, LOL. You're a damn lie Posted by Orbit_Established, Thu Feb-09-12 05:00 PM
>that I would expect from a rapper like earl, but you probably >came in here ready to hate to be honest.....(No I'm not mad, >before you post some shit like that)
You expect him to return begging for followers to release a shitty, underwhelming song?
Well maybe I think he's smarter than that
I at LEAST expected a *decent* song
This song is literally worse than anything on the EARL album

These niggas know they have the popularity to do some shit like that AND know that mad people have been going around like "FREE EARL" and shit, So why not? That said, this song was probably worse than anything on the earl album, but I still thought it was ok.

I like the lo-fi sound and the fact that it sounds like something Otis Jack Jr. would produce.
