  • My Unpopular Rap Opinions III:
    Music opinions. I have them, you have them, and some of the ones we have would be considered to be unpopular. And in this video, I'm gonna be sharing some of my own unpopular opinions with you guys for the third time!
    Some opinions are easier to measure the popularity of than others, and with some you just have to go by what you generally see in online hip hop discussions, but I think I picked some pretty solid ones here. So what did I have to say about Nicki Minaj, Lil Uzi's Eternal Atake album, Kanye's Donda album and more? Well, this is CDTVProductions, and watch the video to find out!

    Donda came at such a pivotal time in my life, I was dealing with the same emotions Kanye was, I had just gotten out of a 5 year relationship and had no one to turn to. I had listened to that album start to finish time and time again and it helped heal me so much, I felt a part of me in every song on it. Whether that’s being grateful and excited for the future listening to Off The Grid, making bad choices while I was in denial (Jail) deep introspection with Jesus Lord, or even feeling heartbreak on Come to Life. The rollercoaster of raw emotion and spirituality leaves me no choice but to put Donda as my 2nd favorite Kanye album

    Venetia from Eternal Atake is easily one of my favorite songs from 2020, that beat hits hard and the way he flows through his verses (especially during the start of that second verse) is so clean. I need to get more into Uzi but if Venetia is any indication, I'm going have a great time listening to him.

  • @nbabackcourtmedia

    1. I agree. I don’t think it’s completely irrelevant, but it’s more about how you say it rather than what you say. You can rap about typical themes but if you say them in a creative way or at least a catchy way then it works well. So basically I agree with you lol.
    2. I’ve never been a huge fan of future but I also haven’t really dove into his discography too much, but based off of how I feel about him I think I would agree.
    3. I definitely agree. It was such a beautiful experience and a near perfect listen for me. Yes I understand that there’s a ton of tracks but most of them really work for me, even the ones that people don’t like such as remote control. He was amazing as a curator, producer, and when he did perform he performed pretty well. On top of that it has a top 20 maybe top 10 Kanye song in heaven or hell.
    4. I agree, I think she’s an insanely talented rapper but her material just doesn’t reflect that most of the time imo, especially this year. Do we have a problem was decent but she kept killing the momentum, the song with Fivio was just bad, so was bussin, and everything else I’ve heard this year from her has been subpar.
    5. I agree, eternal Atake has grown on me a ton since I’ve first heard it. It has some of his worst tracks (pop, you better move, urgency,) but the highs on this album are insanely good. Prices, Futsal shuffle, I’m sorry, celebration station, bigger than life, baby Pluto are some of his best tracks.

    I don't really have that many unpopular opinions regarding rap, but I do have one that applies to all art INCLUDING rap. While it is important to change up your style and subvert expectations, some people take innovation too seriously, not EVERY artist or creator has to break new ground with every new project they release, they can play it safe every once in a while.

    Easily the best take on the "Do lyrics matter?" question. It seems like everyone on the Internet either falls into the "lyrics are irrelevant" or "lyrics are the only thing that matters" camps, and nobody is bothering to take the middle ground. And since this video used modern-day trap rappers to demonstrate this point, allow me to explain it in a way fellow old-heads with too much time on their hands might understand.
    Lyrics are an essential aspect of the genre, but they aren't the only aspect. If they were, Snoop Dogg would've never taken off. His lyrics aren't anything special - just standard bars about sex, drugs, and guns - but his delivery, flow, and production are more than enough to keep people coming back to "Doggystyle". On the opposite end of the spectrum, MF Doom had bars, but his unorthodox delivery and bizarre production were major stumbling blocks for plenty of casual listeners.
    However, that doesn't mean lyrics are totally irrelevant. Most pre-Rakim rap is basic, first-grade rhyming with lyrics that would get you laughed out of a cypher nowadays. And if it's not the wordplay that matters... Ice Cube is a great rapper, but I dare you to listen to "Black Korea" without cringing at the subject matter.
    Bottom line - a rapper "not having lyrics" isn't a new phenomenon. Quite a few well-renowned classic rappers weren't particularly skilled in the lyrics department. So if you don't like a trap song (and there aren't any lyrics that stand out as particularly bad), the "no lyrics" argument isn't a particularly good one. Just say you think the production sounds cheap or that the rapper has low charisma. Or just listen to something you actually like.

    • @Phosphor_Sco
      @Phosphor_Sco 2 роки тому +1

      I think the issues lies within people not understanding a lot of modern rappers too whether it be the effects or their lazy mumbled delivery, it doesn’t help
      I’ve said for time Snoop wasn’t lyrical but he had that edge and character that personally I feel a lot of rappers miss these days

    • @samt3412
      @samt3412 2 роки тому +2

      The problem with trap for me isn't lyrics, it's the production. To me at least, a great beat can save a so-so verse, but not the other way around. Something that I really don't like about trap is that every beat sounds similar, especially on percussion. It gets old, fast. That's why I prefer stuff like WLR over a lot of Future or Migos type tracks, because the "hypertrap" style on WLR is simply more inventive. Don't even get me started on Kanye, DOOM, Dilla, etc. The older, more sample-heavy kind of beats are what I personally enjoy a lot more than the more hollow sound of trap because those samples still carry a lot of soul and flavor than the trap style of today.

    Literally watched the first episode of this series earlier today hoping for another sequel, let's get into these takes!
    1. Absolutely agreed, you don't have to be a conscious rapper to put some thought and effort into your lyrics, and having a distinct lyrical style will always make your music stand out.
    2. Haven't listened to DS2 yet unfortunately, so I'll have to stay impartial for now.
    3. I personally think Donda is just too long and contains too many mediocre songs to be considered an amazing album. But the highlights on that album are truly incredible, and if he'd cut it down to about 15 tracks it would probably rank much higher in his discography.
    4. Haven't listened to Nicki's singles either, but I did enjoy her feature on Blick Blick and Coi did a great job on that song as well. (Sidenote: I think Coi Leray is super underrated and gets way too much hate)
    5. I relistened to Eternal Atake a few days ago, and while I do still love the intro and the last two sections of the album, I think the "Baby Pluto" section has grown off me even more. I used to enjoy Silly Watch and POP quite a bit, but now they just come off as stale and repetitive even for Uzi's standards. Overall only 10/18 songs have really stuck with me, but I enjoy those songs enough to at least call it a good album.

    The point you made about lyrics mattering is a good one too because I feel like peoples perception of it is that writing can only be clever if it’s about deep stuff which isn’t necessarily true. Some rappers write about frivolous things but do it in a clever and interesting way which makes it fun to listen to. Lyrics don’t have to have a deep meaning to be clever and well written.

    Yo I 100% agree on the Uzi take. I love EA, & even tho I think Luv is Rage 2 is a little better, it’s my most listened to album on Spotify. Imo Celebration Station & Venetia are two of his best songs, and some of my favorite songs oat.
    I know it’s technically part of EA Deluxe, but I see Luv vs. the World 2 as its own separate mixtape, & I think that’s Uzi’s weakest project. It’s not bad at all but has the most amount of skips out of all his projects. Myron still goes crazy tho 🔥🔥🔥

    Nicki Minaj knows what her fans like, she doesn't make music to prove herself anymore. She just makes music to drop and give her fans something new to listen to. She's already established herself as one of the greatest rappers in our generation. So in my opinion, I think she has the right to have fun and make music as she pleases.

    Nicki is an excellent rapper but she definitely hasn't learned to be a PERSON like her master Lil Wayne, she only cares about fame, #1 etc, lashed out at Travis for passing her, lashed out at Iggy and Cardi for showing up and maybe" take" the place of a woman in rap, instead of her just caring about rapping like Wayne, I commented this on Twitter her idiot fans attacked me, as if I (Em fan) didn't know what stans are like. She should follow her Sensei more and focus more on the music than on the top of the Billboard, after all it is the billboard that needs her and not her from the billboard, she is one of the GOATs.

    I can agree with your lyrics point to an extent (although oftentimes I'll still listen to a song if the beat and flows are nice, even if the lyrics are lame af). Even if you're just talking about the typical rap topics it can still be done in ways that are interesting and aren't void of personality. Young Thug's lyrics are often considered trash, but I personally think it's pretty entertaining how random and outlandish his lyrics tend to be and they're part of why his music has so much personality (and it's also part of what makes Thugger more interesting than the rappers that are clearly influenced by him). Same with Future to an extent,, some of his lyrics are so cartoonishly toxic that they're kinda funny. Even though Travis' lyrics are often pretty basic on the surface, they often don't fail to stay stuck in my head lol.

    I completely agree with the Donda opinion. I got into Kanye because of the Donda rollout and I have to say his other albums are amazing. But for some reason I come back to donda with a greater listening experience because the music just strikes a certain part of me whether is the transition on Off The Grid, the beauty of Come to Life, or the emotion I can feel through 24 or Never Abandon Your Family. I just don’t see any music that comes close to the listening experience and “replayability” that Donda had to me. That’s why I personally have Donda as my favorite Kanye album.
