2904284, ILOVEMAKONNEN - anybody listening!?
Posted by zephyr, Mon Oct-06-14 06:48 PM
MAKONNEN is DOPE!

Has anyone explored his music and videos apart from Tuesday?

He has great production along with a unique voice and lyrics that vary from intensely romantic to jovial.

He also sings some soulful shit. His pitch may not be perfect, but his voice has a Jimi Hendrix/Bob Dylan semi shitty/awesome quality to it.

Aint been this hype on an artist in a minute.

His affiliate "Father" (look up fatheraintshit to find him on Soundcloud, IG whatever) is also super dope.

These kids are coming hard w/ some music that sounds different!

This is the type of shit I used to find out about on The Lesson.

Where yall at?

Apparently Makonnen has been signed to Mike Will this entire time and finally came up w/ Tuesday.

Listen To:
- Father (feat Makonnen) - Look at Wrist
- Father - Nokia
- Wishin you well
- Don't sell molly no more
- Maneuvering
- Too Much
- In the Bity

2904298, it's not totally for me but if i'm off the greens, i'd be down

2904304, Drake signed him to OVO not too long ago
Posted by SeV, Mon Oct-06-14 08:11 PM

2904324, He's dope. Took Lil B's vibe and went accesible
Posted by mrshow, Mon Oct-06-14 10:09 PM
His voice reminds me of the Killers dude.
2904326, There was a post in GD a while back

what makes you say that? whats the lesson supposed to be about?
2904328, Tuesday is dope
Posted by will_5198, Mon Oct-06-14 10:40 PM
nearly everything else I've heard has been utter garbage, however

I like some of his ideas but the execution is not enjoyable at all
2904339, Not a fan of the little bit I've heard....
Posted by Crash85, Tue Oct-07-14 01:31 AM
Plus, Pigeons and Planes trying to shove this dude down everyone's throats is kinda annoying...

...which has nothing to do with him, but makes me feel like people are just latching on to dude just to be like, "This is fucking good! You don't listen to him??! Your loss! FIRST!" dumb shit like that...

Dude is alright...but I'll probably listen to his project, still, just based on the hype...

2907046, look at wrist is great, i ain't mad @ father
Posted by bucknchange, Sat Oct-25-14 02:21 PM
ofwgkta + basedgod + 5 points + gucci = awful records
and i ain't mad at that
2907066, Can't do it.
Posted by JFrost1117, Sat Oct-25-14 03:45 PM
i can't even put him in the bucket of "It'll grow on me". Everything I've heard has been absolute garbage, and I'm not putting forth anymore effort into tryin to understand the appeal.
2907079, his shit is...interesting.
Posted by SHAstayhighalways, Sat Oct-25-14 05:07 PM
when i finally heard that tuesday song i was like 'oh'
def wasn't blown away but i don't hate it either
just listened to another song of his just now "i used to sell molly"
on some random shit on youtube
and i'm still like 'oh'
didn't hate it but don't love it lol
i can see the appeal tho

his shit is catchy and he's the most original star out right now, so I respect it on that level
2907138, His hooks make him

2907142, RE: just left faderfort. he's liveshow is trash
Posted by bucknchange, Sun Oct-26-14 12:15 AM
awful records is pretty bland live too
2907183, I think Awful Records is the pits
Posted by atruhead, Sun Oct-26-14 12:48 PM
but Im semi-cool with some of their extended family, so Im forbidden from saying it anywhere else online
2907171, definitely interesting but i'm not sure where this sits
Posted by Mash_Comp, Sun Oct-26-14 09:36 AM

2909638, DJs: How does the crowd react to this?
Posted by Stadium Status, Mon Nov-17-14 01:45 PM
Obviously this song is in but I'm curious as to how people physically react to it? Swaying around? Or are there uptempo mixes and whatnot you play of this more?
2909664, RE: DJs: How does the crowd react to this?
Posted by double 0, Mon Nov-17-14 04:47 PM
It definitely pops off...

There is a Dj reflex drum remix that has harder drums but the Drake version goes..

Let's be real though.. it's a Drake song with an ilovemakonnen hook. i've never played anything past the hook following drakes verse.
2909659, tuesday rmx w/drake is my shit...the rest tho??LOL some of the worst
