Is that right?

YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He's back!

the kids from the suburbs must be ecstatic.

It's pleasantly warm so I don't need a sweatshirt, thank you

track's lo-fi as fuck.

Absolutely killed it.

fucking swag
excited

Well the best part about Odd Future is finally back.

Well the best part about Odd Future is finally back.

If they top BLACKENEDWHITE I'll be very impressed.

I couldn't care less.

I am so fucking stoked.

You stocked dude?

blackenedwhite wasn't that good dont be dumb

i'm so stoked.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuck yes

@ Hawks yea man Im "stocked"
I edited my post as soon as I pressed enter. I was so "stocked" I couldn't spell right.

new song is POWER-quality

Well the best part about Odd Future is finally back [2]

can odd future stop sucking now

Swag is over 9000

wag wag wag wag wag

How valid is this??

how valid is it?



really?

I didn't know he was gone.

cool

tyler seems pretty pissed about this idk why prolly his time of the month

cuz earl is better

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

siiiiiiick

lol at tyler being shitty bout this. thought earl was his "only friend" or sometin

lil kids screamin odd future is back

No way Earl's back. Hodgy said on his Twitter that Earl's not back and this is probably just another Tyler trolling using old Earl recordings.

who

woooooo stoked

lol@People thinking Earl is the best part of Odd Future.

But yeah thsi is great and I'm happy about it.

Also this song sucks (generic technical "battle rap"-type lyrics) and his flow sucks. But I don't mind
since he probably made it in like, five seconds.

Only member I REALLY liked from Odd Future. Awesome news!

gabe what the fuck are you talking about

The song isn't very good. I like Earl and I'm sure his other stuff will be better but the flow is fucked/sloppy and the lyrics are just really generic shit to make sure he has as dense rhymes as he can.

it's basically like hearing what white teenagers record when they learn that technicality is a thing in hip-hop.

i have no idea what youre hearing

Let's just say if it was anyone else but Earl, people wouldn't think it was very good unless you're someone whose mouth is left gaping by that kind of stuff easily. In which case you also probably like Twista.

gabe do you ever just sit back and enjoy a song? Not everything needs to be analysed to that degree man. And I don't know why you'd lol at people thinking he's the best part of OF either

I sit back and enjoy plenty of songs, but not when I don't enjoy them?

I'm not even deeply analyzing it lol, I'm just noting why it's less-than-great.

I just read a lot of your posts and think "wtf is this guy on about?" : )

Can't wait for him to drop a brilliant piece of shit

Well this is sweeet

m/

Tyler is so much better than Earl IMO, and I don't even think Tyler is spectacular. I'm on team mellowhype, hodgy is the only rapper in the group who doesn't try too hard.

new song is sick.

lol sweatshirt

i for one agree with gabe

white kids are too into rap

"i for one agree with gabe"

rly?

cuz im laughing my ass off @ him as usual

"his flow sucks."

lmfao

it wouldnt be nearly as funny if you didnt jerk of asap rockys rapping so much

lmfao

Because he's rapping exactly like you do in this track.

lmfao

he's rapping well on this track

your ear for hip hop is terrible

etc

Sigh.

Okay.

Earl is a dwag...good shit..now lets see some good EarlWolf hit the streets

I didn't have my hopes up for his return so something like this would happen.

I think Gabe raises a good point and I respect that. Hip-hop needs strict analyzation these days.

i'm glad there's a period in this news title

i'm glad he's back but this track isn't very good

regardless of what's really going on with him and the rest of odd future, this song is sick

fuck yeah, best member of ofwgkta hands down.

FUCK YES

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

if this isn't tyler or someone else trolling, this is great news.

SWEET!

Earl is definitely my favorite part of ODD FUTURE

elaborate troll imo

get that period out of the news title what the hell guys

well the other one had a question mark so it like corresponds

keep it movin' like a pumas lunch

he flows so nice on this fuck

it sounds like he's just trying to jam as much as he can into the bars so it fucks up his flow.

lolwut

Like he just kind of shoves so many words/syllables in each lines and it overflows until it kind of sounds sloppy. But like I said he probably even recorded it in like one or a few takes. It's not like he can't flow amazingly (see: Kill)

and I just realized he name dropped Lil B in that song. Can't believe I didn't catch that before #Fresh as fuck

lil b's new shit is so real. "February's Confessions" had me in gay tears

him and mellowhype is the only OF i still listen to occasionally

God's Father is going to be legendary. I'm kind of on the fence about his blurring the lines between Based and conventional hip-hop, but I still can't wait for it.

If February's Confessions doesn't make you feel something in his pretty bitch pink socks, then u aren't allowed to listen to music. And he kills David Banner on I Got Swag then makes up with him and tells everyone to go post positive stuff on his Facebook page. What a god amongst men.

lmfao

this is a discussion about the king of hip-hop, Lil B and if u aren't going to contribute then gtfo son cuz I will come to ur house with 9s and smoke u.

agreed. I like you now gabe

wtf is going on here?!?!?!?

Rumor is he's working with AIM until he's 18 because that was a contingency of his release. I'm guessing he'll start working with Odd Future again after that. I fucking hate Odd Future rumor rhetoric, but I wanted to know...

goddamn

fuck

HAHAHAHAHA

remember guys, those are just typical "battle-rap" lyrics that dont flow well..................

;)

i definitely wouldnt say theyre typical

but a lot of them dont really make sense

anyone else think this sounds like a mf doom track

yeah you can tell earl is influenced by mf doom a lot. He's rapped over some of his beats

"this is a discussion about the king of hip-hop, Lil B"

i almost got mad at you until i read that, now i know you're actually alright.

lol

they should re-release liquid swords w/ lil b saying "WOOP" and "SWAG" in between every other word

i agree hip hop and its history should be shat on as much as possible

made better*

i saw a few comments from people on other sites saying "OH THIS IS OBVIOUSLY AN OLD UNRELEASED TRACK".

yeah, after reading those lyrics, i sincerely doubt that.

Nice!

"HAHAHAHAHA

remember guys, those are just typical "battle-rap" lyrics that dont flow well..................

;)"

They kinda are. Not literally typical in the sense of "these EXACT lyrics could be found in any 'battle-rapper turned recording artist'" but yeah, I feel like I could hear this on any amateur "technical rapper" with good-to-mediocre wordplay, which isn't what I enjoyed Earl's other stuff for and the flow does suck..........

;)

also Liquid #Based would be an amazing remix but what would be so beautiful I'd cry is if someone remixed Reasonable Doubt with WOOs and SWAGs. I mean...just imagine...

well the other one had a question mark so it like corresponds

I kinda like this one cause you can read it like:

Earl's back...period

kids say the darndest thangs

conscious hip hop vs swagrap

RIP Earl's flow...

good joke

he just lost it

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2012/02/odd-futures-earl-sweatshirt-is-free-and-releasing-music.html

"We've reached out to Odd Future reps to confirm whether Earl is in fact in Los Angeles or posting music from elsewhere. At press time, his reps were unable to confirm his whereabouts."

goddamn this is so good

^Method Man ruled on Garden State.

can't understand those who say his flow is gone like are you fucking kidding me

cuz it sux

I just laughed because I was thinking how it would be if Earl tried to use a Curren$y flow.

"anyone else think this sounds like a mf doom track"

thought that from the very first second of the song till the end

I think Earl is forever destined to have the voice of a thirteen year-old white kid.

"can't understand those who say his flow is gone like are you fucking kidding me"

its only two people tho and theyre both criminally handicapped when it comes to evaluating music

lol

"I think Earl is forever destined to have the voice of a thirteen year-old white kid."

Goddamnit man just take the cocks out of your ears for 2 minutes and give it a real listen

yea gabe you tard

"Goddamnit man just take the cocks out of your ears for 2 minutes and give it a real listen"

lol it was a joke. I wasn't saying that had anything to do with the quality of the song but the fact that he's almost (if he already isn't) 18 and he had this little white teen voice is kind of funny.

This track sux for the reasons I said it sux.

I don't like this kid as much as most of you. I actually like Tyler more; Earl's got a lot of growing up to do before he becomes relevant.

lil B fucking sucks

^^ Wrong, friend. The best thing to happen to modern hip-hop.

Maybe to the homosexual minority, but not to the rest of us.

lil b is terrible

"lil b is terrible"
ya if you're a plebeian who hates music.

oh i get it now you like lil b

Yeah but I wouldn't even listen to Lil B in the same context as listening to Earl Sweatshirt so I don't see how that'd be a valid comparison. Lil B goes usually past hip-hop conventions and Earl Sweatshirt usually stays tucked nicely in the confines of "for hip-hop heads" rapping. Not that that's a bad thing.

and Earl Sweatshirt usually stays tucked nicely in the confines of "for hip-hop heads" rapping.

im not gna lie, ofwgkta are sooooooo over rated and over hyped. Sure goblin was aight, but fuck. Everyones goin on about how these guys r writing hip hop. I rekon the only reason theres such a hype train surrounding these guys is due to the fact of tylers image with the whole skater supreme hardcore cunt.

The first time I read this I thought it said "Earl Sweatshirt is Black" and was a bit upset at how far down the pooper Sputnik's newspage has gone. But anyways, I could care less but I have friends who do.

That was inaudible as fuck. Im back! Great, your brothers and all your friends got signed while you were gone. Maybe they should let you use some of their fancy equipment?

pretty easy to understand

exactly, he needs to continue to grow. you can't be a 'who gives a fuck' kid for your entire life.

"i listen to all rappers in pretty much the same fashion. if one is bad he/she is bad in every context. i try not to make excuses or attempt to legitimize a rapper because of his unique flow or lyrical subject matter."

But not all hip-hop has the same goals or are trying to do everything at all because not all of them just have the goal of "going as hard as possible". I can't imagine listening to Koopsta Knicca in the same context as I would Reasonable Doubt-era Jay-Z nor would I listen to Kendrick Lamar in the same context as I would Waka Flocka or any Brick Squad member (maybe Gucci Mane cuz he can go hard but yeah)

"but this, this is bad even when you compare it to based god."
Basically all hip-hop is.

if this was a year ago i would give a shit

If this was a 4.5, I would give a shit.

OH WAIT IT IS

"(maybe Gucci Mane cuz he can go hard but yeah)"

No.

Yea.

The kid can flow, but as a whole and pretty much individually, OFWGKTA is a huge gimmick. Only Eminem can pull off the "fuck you, kill you, rape you" lyrics successfully.

Overrated rappers are overrated.

^ I'll wait for someone else to tear that comment apart.

lol gucci mane goes hard

lol

lol death grips

good idea

@planewreck: Lil B's flow wasn't SUPPOSED to be on point, though. His entire POINT is how he breaks these boundaries so criticizing his flow is like criticizing Steve Reich for being repetitive but I'm not going to get into that. I think I'm just going to write an essay on Lil B's appeal and just hand out .pdf links at some point.

"lol gucci mane goes hard

lol"

Yea.

He's had a lot of new songs. His new release with V-Nasty was pretty bad and his newest mixtape he just released a week or two ago was ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Some beats/songs were good but it's just meh overall I guess.

GIRLS WANNA FUCK ME ON THE FIRST DATE

yeah this song isnt really good tbqh

lol you should listen to gabe
