Can't say I expected anybody else to want this album
cant expect that on srf :o I am downloading it but im wondering if i'd like it as much since im listening to odd future shit right now and the sounds are totally different ._.
I think its stupid to judge artists based on only listening to the shit that makes it on the radio, which are obviously more pop-oriented. judging kanye west after only listening to songs like heartless, stronger, without going deep into his albums such as all falls down, gorgeous, murder to excellence, which comment on social issues and self-reflection..

Been listening to the tracks on that album for a while. Really into the G.O.O.D music crew lately. Tracks like Clique, New God Flow, I Don't Like, Mercy, etc. are gold.
P.S: I like how Watch The Throne had a similar cover but gold.
Yeah it's definitely different from Odd Future. I wish I knew enough about music to describe what type of 'rap' it is, but for now, I'm just going to say Odd Future is more underground oriented and Cruel Summer is more mainstream/radio oriented. Not that it's a bad thing, but you're gonna find more rap hipsters on the internet that are more into the raw rap flow.
I think there's a fair range of variety in the album, one side being Clique, Mercy, Cold I Don't Like, and the other being To The World, Higher, and Bliss.
Quote:
The album stars Pusha T, 2 Chainz, Big Sean, Common, Cyhi Da Prynce, John Legend and Teyana Taylor.
What do these acts have in common? Not much, actually.
And yet, even though everyone has a different style, background and shape, each piece fits perfectly into Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Music puzzle.
Pusha is a loud, brass criminal-minded rapper; Common is the calm, thoughtful veteran with dense rhymes; 2 Chainz is the goofy one with loud, exaggerated style and fine comedic timing; Big Sean is the slick-talking underdog; And Kid Cudi, well, Kid Cudi just belongs in Other.
Add that in with leader Kanye West, who basically contains every one of these traits, and you have G.O.O.D. Music and their debut album — and what a debut, from the crew that, for the most part, gives everyone equal opportunity to shine.
Kanye has his moments, often happily stunting on the competition (like in the celebratory “To the World,” which features R. Kelly.) Pusha, as usual, wonderfully keeps things in the gutter, like on “New God Flow,” where he brags about being Shyne to Kanye’s Puff.
G.O.O.D. Music’s newest member, Teyana Taylor, gets to show her chops in a duet with John Legend, which sounds like it's from the '80s. Even Cudi comes through with his rap/rock style (again, he goes in the Other category.)
The only one who unfortunately gets shortchanged is CyHi Da Prynce, who only has one standout verse, on one of the album’s deeper cuts, “Sin City.”
With only 12 tracks, Kanye still finds ways to mix in some outsiders, with legends like Jay-Z, Raekwon and Ma$e, who all bring their A-game.
They're both (OFWGKTA and GOOD) unique but in different ways. That review nailed it pretty much though. Pusha-T does have that aggresive flow (dat verse on mercy), Big Sean has a comical approach to his flow ("Boii Boiii", "Oh god, Oh goooddd"),etc.
I'll even listen to 2Chainz now because of that trap influence his tracks have. His lyrics are usually shitty but the way he'll rap them is extremely catchy. Love his southern accent.
2Chainz ft. Kanye West - Birthday Song ; Weak lyrics, good sound.
Many of the artists who makes the mainstream rap terrible in one single album? Only a nuclear bomb could be worse then this.
I would recommend the producers Snowgoons newest album Dynasty
Spoiler!
Termanlogy's flow is fucking insane
The fact that Freestyle is in many of their songs makes it even better, he has never dissapointed me.
I own every Snowgoons albums legally. Real quality hiphop.
Respect, this is legit rap.
I love every kind of rap, I can enjoy raw talented lyricism such as Eminem's oldest stuff (his new stuff is still great but still) or Slaughterhouse. (Not going to talk about pac and big, no need for)
I also like more "entertaining rap" when you just want to hear a catchy instrumental with a catchy flow on top.

Common, Pharrell, Mos Def, Ghost Face killah & Raekwon (both Wu Tank Clan), The-Dream..calling Good Music too mainstream is just ignorant. Most of these are either underground or conscious rappers. Ofcourse theres Jay Z (who is farking amazing btw), R Kelly, 2Chainz (She gotta big booty so i call her Big Booty )
So far I like Clique a lot, To the World is good aswell. Other than those the others dont really stand out to me much (other than the already released singles), but i have a habit of liking songs more as i listen to them.

Im startin to like The One and the Morning too. Ofcourse New God Flow is the best.. funny how they are all produced by kanye west
And what is the point of DJ Khaled exactly? Apparently he didnt even produce Cold (Hit-boy), neither does he rap in it( Kanye)..but it says its his song..~,o''

I hate DJ Khalid, he makes beats, sure, but he has to scream his name, say "WE DA BES" or some shit, and then give shoutouts to a list of like 50 people.
Hit Boy destroys Khalid, but you don't see him introducing himself in every song.
He's decent? He's supposedly the master of flow...
I haven't really listened to him very much, but to say he's "decent" is an under-statement.
He used to be slow and boring but I guess that's his "signature" lazy flow. Guess that's why I don't really like Biggie. His (Jay's) rhyme schemes and flow definitively changed in Watch the Throne and Cruel Summer.
