What Happens When OFWGKTA Sells Out?

Post by knell » Sat Feb 12, 2011 9:51 pm

they're gonna be on jimmy fallon this wednesday (lol) and they make no secret about being ready to get big.

i personally think they dont know what they're in for, since i work with people like that all the time, and they dont realize what the industry is all about...

anyway, do you think they're gonna hold their own?

yeh, i like how the beat makes you focus on the lyrics. far from overproduced.

after seeing their live shows, i just cant imagine them on Jimmy Fallon.... that'd be like having early eminem on there... we'll see how much they love selling out when everything is censored and they have to re-write everything

They'll probably just go with it.

I doubt they care. They don't seem to be too concerned about selling out, artistic integrity etc.

Just a bunch of kids who try to say shocking things.

Some of their music is great though.

Or they'll be like the Doors and say "girl we couldn't get much higher"

...except for them they'd have to say something like "If you wanna get higher you gotta get choked with a wire while the whole fuckin crack rock catches fire"

This is the first time I've heard anything from any of them that's impressed me much.

Always thought they were trying too hard. Image over substance and shit

but the beat on this is sick and the rapping fits damn good on it

tyler's new album will be on XL.
apparently its a one album deal where he gets full creative control and will eventually receive his masters back.
take from that what you will.

hmm?

speculation does not equal over analyzing. grow the fuck up and drop the high horse internet pseudo-art-deco bullshit. it's just a curious question, not a damnation one way or the other.

i'm listening to it either way, progression intrigues me. maybe selling out will be the best thing to happen to them, maybe it will change hip hop forever.

i know it's tough to gather a standpoint from a forum, but you two delving into that state of mind because you assume i think selling out is a bad thing speaks volumes about your characters
