I feel like jpeg always throws in demos and dumb interlude tracks when he can, it's kind of part of his charm

unbelievable these are this guy's b-sides. legitimately better than most rapper's career best and quite frankly better than most of the album they were initially cut from

listening to the directors cut in full rn... honestly flows so much better than the og
was reading apparently this is what the album was supposed to be before fucking kanye persuaded him to "cut the fat".

Kind of interested in a discussion about "cutting the fat"
"the fat" is a big part of what made me love Veteran and Cornballs so much

@wildcard disc one already has the new tracks sequenced in with the originals. i take that as the "directors cut".

very white of me I know but this is legit one of my favorite rap albums ever. Best rap metal combo ever too, I always thought most of it was corny but he really pulls this sound off so fkn well
I didn’t think he’d ever top Veteran but he might’ve done it with this one. This is gonna be a Peggy week

the key to being a fan of this guy is to just listen to his music and ignore literally anything else he does
that being said, kinda funny to proclaim all that shit and then drop the most redundant sounding single of his career
would love to see a proper diss track from earl tho lmao

The funny thing is he’s right about Earl and the alchemist. It’s just that he doesn’t see the irony in his production being at best a carbon copy of the 2011/2012 experimental sound all the while being totally incapable of writing a meaningful verse.

Not wrong reich. I enjoy this guys music when its on but it hardly has any staying power imo

What’s worse is so many people who knocked death grips for being too “out there” (I think experimental was the word they were looking for) heap praise on this dude like anything he’s done is novel. It was “haha black man unintelligibly yelling” on here when dg did it but when this guy did it was somehow unique and fresh. There is nothing original about this guy down to his very fanbase who rn are on twitter having the same arguments about not being 99% white anime loving parasocial weirdos like death grips fans were 15 years ago!

Imagine how well Kendrick's control verse would've went over if he instead made a press release while dressed up as 2014 kanye
And jpegs talented and carved out a niche for himself but likee, he isn't particularly groundbreaking as a producer and lyrically he lacks substance. Anytime a peer brought him up it was 'well he's kinda like () and ()' not 'oh hold up you need to hear this.' energy goes a long way tho and he's got that going for him
Never got too heavy into earls some rap songs onwards era but he's earned his respect/place rather than demand people acknowledge him a la peggy. I wouldn't call either of them experimental unless we're using it as a generic label rather than an ethos("alternative" is the more accurate blanket term.) But yeah he should just do his thing(even if it involves being off-putting), and not worry about comparing himself to others.

Agreed with you both. Both Death Grips and Earl have pushed the hip hop genre further than JPEG I agree. Peggy is a great producer but you can definitely tell he's wearing his influences on his sleeve (Kanye, Death Grips, Baltimore club shit). The other two constantly are trying new things whether they land or not and I find that more respectable. It's no surprise a terminally online rapper has a terminally online fanbase

idk kinda got to defend my guy here. i don't think his production sounds similar to death grips in particular at all... same way i never thought death grips sounded like dalek or whatever the lazy comparison was 10yrs ago lmao.
dude has been pretty unassailably the most interesting hip hop producer since 2018 and for the most part every album sounds pretty different from the last. def feel like he might be starting to tread water a bit and maybe getting to a point his mouth is writing checks his music can't cash anymore... but its been a pretty dominant run. if you wanna say its because death grips being largely absent the past 8yrs allowed him to swoop in and fill the void that's probably true but the large majority of this guys' music isn't anywhere near as loud or aggressive as the average death grips song... hell this guy's music is arguably at its best when he's abusing the autotune.
