Chance the Rapper - The Big Day (July 26, 2019) Album • Page 43

DC Talk baybeeeeee

 

Jesus Freak goes hard tbh

 

I thought that No Malice album was solid. Lecrae has put out some great songs. But still, it weirds me out, haha.

 

They actually have a handful of really good songs I think

 

Jesus Freak was honestly huge for me when I was like 10, probably one of the first steps in me forming my own musical identity. I bet I'd still know most of the words if I heard it now.

 

I have never heard of this group or any or those songs lol

Must have not reached continental Europe

 

Did you listen to Grits?

As long as you don't say KJ-52...

 

this thing makes me feel so good, perfect 6 am commute record

 

I'm sorry, I don't know grits other than the breakfast food

 

this was my jam when i was like 12

 

this slaps

 

Damn, people are really going in on him in the comments

 

Damnnnn I forgot about grits definitely listening to them tonight.

 

Omg I remember KJ-52, I used to know some people that were fans

 

The extreme hate is definitely unwarranted but I do unfortunately think this is pretty easily his weakest project. Not because of the subject matter, it just doesn't feel as inspired as any of his mixtapes, like he's on autopilot for a ton of this

I do still plan on going to the tour and showing support for one of my favorite rappers though

 

Also seeing the real picture is super unsettling after looking at the cover for so many years

His pupils lmao

 

Gave this yet another go last night based on some of the praise it's received in here, and it's still not clicking. I officially give up with this album, easily his worst project. There isn't a single great song on this thing imo.

 

Fair enough. Even if they hate all other songs, I don't understand how someone thinks I Got You isn't great though, haha.

 

Ari Lennox is awesome, Shea Butter Baby is one of the best albums of the year. I guess I'm just not much of a fan of anything Chance does on that song

 

Question: do you not notice the references (the way he flows the first five bars for example) or do they just not appeal to you you? I'm not trying to go at you by the way, I'm just curious.

 

If I'm honest, I haven't really digested the lyrics all that much. I normally only start to dive into the lyrical content of albums once I've run through them several times. I think his flows on this album sound decent enough, but none of his raps have really hooked me in like some of his previous material.

 

I Got You specifically is referential more in the way the song sounds, the way he raps sometimes etc. (though some lines sound familiar). Earlier I called it an amalgamation of classic rap and R&B songs people have player at their weddings during the last 30 years. I personally enjoy that.

 

this is his best album *prepares to get clowned*

 

great songs: all day long, do you remember, eternal, hot shower, i got you, title track, big fish, ballin flossin, 5 year plan, get! a! bag!, zanies and fools
