Re: Spark Master Tape
to me, the appeal of smt is very much in the 'sum total', not just in him as a rapper. he's good, no question, but it's the combination of him AND Paper Platoon's production and the weird arrangements of the songs and how it all adds up on #SS is what really makes the final product as good as it is. i'm not sure taking him out of that contained environment would work to his advantage; he doesn't seem like the type of dude that can just rap on anything and make it sound dope, especially considering how processed and warped his music is. he wouldn't necessarily sound bad on another producer's beat, but they would need to create a really strong dynamic to match what he's doing now.

Re: Spark Master Tape
agreed about the sum total. i dig the music, but i also dig the persona they've built up, as well as the whole mystery surrounding the cew. that in addition to the dope visuals as well and its a cool full package.
i just asked about SMT and LUM working together as a means to help bridge the LUM connection in the thread to something concrete, so we weren't all just going back and forth on who likes what more

Re: Spark Master Tape
I prefer Ugly Mane's rapping. He's funnier. SMT is not pulling off anything like "Slick Rick".
Re: Spark Master Tape
neither is ugly mane, anymore, though.
i still think "polo right" and "serious shit" are his best.
a few weeks after hearing SMT, i figured "this sounds like a journey in production techniques, like a class project for a music school, almost."

Re: Spark Master Tape
sleazy, you really think LUM's whole last album is going to be like "on doing an evil deed blues?"
I'm sure there's going to be a bunch of different types of joints on it.

Re: Spark Master Tape
that 'on doing an evil deed blues' song is sick. i like it better than a lot of older stuff even
Re: Spark Master Tape

Re: Spark Master Tape
it's dope without a doubt. I just don't think he's going to be ditching the persona entirely for his last release.ackbar wrote:that 'on doing an evil deed blues' song is sick. i like it better than a lot of older stuff even

Re: Spark Master Tape
^^ this idea has been said over and over and denied at every turn but that might actually make it even more credible
smt is generally a much better rapper than kai tho

Re: Spark Master Tape
damn, it took them long enough to release that. some anonymous source sent me a BTS video shoot back in August.

agreed...but his race being half something non-white and white made me think Shot in the dark really.

Re: Spark Master Tape
plus the fact that stylistically, they both sounded exactly the same on that joint.
maybe the whole shit is a conspiracy and the whole point of the song/video is to kill off the kai skywalker dude so he can go full-speed as smt
regardless, i thought it was dope. props to both dudes

Cargo shorts with visible ankle socks? Fantasy ruined.
Re: Spark Master Tape
sample in "Been Laydin". not sure how he got the tune without the talking over it, though.

Re: Spark Master Tape
probably used the original rather than sampling directly from the commercial. sounds like he sampled a different version of that song though to me.sleazy_j wrote:

found this a while back, it's on the end of Mutual Fund:

Pretty much going to check for everything SMT or Paper Platoon related now.
