Only midway through the year but I predict Earl taking it for OF this year. Every other release has been underwhelming. I don't even listen to the Tyler project anymore. It is soo bad ...

^^ya not feelin tyler's. will give it another shot at some point but

prob doesn't mean a lot. tyler solo career with a clothing label. earl & frank ocean with their own successful solo careers
everyone doing their thing independently or sporadically collaborating with each other

Pardon my ignorance but what are the 7 letters he's referring to?

OFWGKTA

Ah...I see. So they "broke up"?

yea people are blowing this way out of proportion. friends drift apart, it happens.

BUT WHAT'S TACO GONNA DO?!?!?!?

Odd Future, Raider Klan, and ASAP Mob have all fizzled out quite unceremoniously.

where is it being blown out of proportion? the entire group hasn't been an item for years now, and its painfully obvious to anybody who actually follows their work.

ppl don't really care, do they?

the answer to both of you is 'internet'

re: fizzling out.. odd future & A$AP are without a doubt more popular right now than they've ever been

As individual artists (ASAP Rocky, Tyler, Frank Ocean) maybe, not as a movement tho. Odd Future has basically been defunct for awhile, as we have all just been discussing...

ASAP Mob's output has slowed considerably...

Raider Klan is hardly even on the map anymore.

I think he's referring to them as a 'unit' rather than the individual members, which is still pretty dumb/inaccurate

How is it dumb? Thats like saying Rocafella is still poppin, because jay-z is still popular currently.

It's more like saying roc nation is popping, but whatever. Two of the highest profile albums from OF came out this year. Ferg is still coasting. The Rocky album is getting critical acclaim. Don't know what more you want from them.

I feel you. We are both right in a sense. Just saying they aren't flooding the market with mixtapes and shit like they were before.

Not that M2C is the be all end all, but just take a look at activity of the Raider Klan, ASAP Rocky (Mob), and Odd Future threads of the past few years vs say 2012...

A$AP Rocky is more popular than ever. A$AP Ferg is more popular than ever. Nast & Twelvyy both have significant buzz. The rest of A$AP Mob don't really rap that much as far as I can tell. Check their popularity & influence on social media tho

Tyler is bigger than ever. Earl is bigger than ever. Frank Ocean is bigger than ever. Hodgy, Left Brain & The Internet all have healthy fanbases.

Rocky, Ferg, Tyler, Earl & Frank Ocean are all big enough to be significant festival draws. That shows that they're not really done by any means. (Unless you're referring to the specifically repping as a clique together)

some things pop off here specifically because they aren't that popular yet tho. for the novelty or excitement of something new. then people lose interest

they are more popular out there in the world now without a doubt. (raider klan kinda fell apart tho & collectives like teamsesh, goth money, thraxxhouse, etc. slid in)

Hopefully not wear any of those Simpson's/donut sweaters and other OF merch.

Who cares? They were B-level members, with minimal talent who contributed fuck all. Now that the group has disbanded I am sure it will be tough for them.

i don't even see how this will change anything. everyone who wants to make music will continue to do so. kinda weird to see people airing their private fights on twitter.

i wonder if twitter existed back then, would biggie have tweeted subs about pac and nas and jeru, etc.? prob right?

battlecatmeowstab212 wrote:What's Mike G up to?

He released a cool ep at the beginning of the year.

Taco, Lionel, Jasper etc. still got Loiter Squad, i guess.

For those who are into the band, new Internet album just leaked. Currently listening to it. 3 tracks in, I can't say I am disappointed.
