@Abel if you listen to his songs they're not much different from how he speaks

2018-10-12 16:12:06 UTC  

But maybe that's because he's just being honest

2018-10-12 16:12:09 UTC  

i listened to a few

2018-10-12 16:12:28 UTC  

and often times stream of consciousness is not the best way of speaking and even less so with writing

2018-10-12 16:12:38 UTC  

until you put it in the format of song or poetry i suppose

2018-10-12 16:12:44 UTC  

His songs are written like poetry sometimes

2018-10-12 16:12:55 UTC  

Especially Jesus Walks

2018-10-12 16:13:16 UTC  

he seems to do a better job structuring his songs than what he says

2018-10-12 16:13:20 UTC  

Stop talking about universes lol

2018-10-12 16:13:21 UTC  

im not a huge fan of his music though

2018-10-12 16:13:26 UTC  

"I'm afraid because we haven't talked for so long, so long, so long"

2018-10-12 16:13:34 UTC  

@Baal yeah man he went on a couple weird tangents

2018-10-12 16:13:50 UTC  

Sounds like he's simply repeating himself, but he's using so long under different context

2018-10-12 16:14:04 UTC  

First about time, the second about saying goodbye

2018-10-12 16:14:07 UTC  

I understand the complexities that some of his songs have

2018-10-12 16:14:14 UTC  

i just don't like the music itself

2018-10-12 16:14:29 UTC  

ive been told listening to it has layers of meaning under it

2018-10-12 16:14:31 UTC  

I don't like rap, but I'm a huge fan of Kanye

2018-10-12 16:14:39 UTC  

I rather like Audioslave

2018-10-12 16:14:42 UTC  

Hell, dude even sings well

2018-10-12 16:14:59 UTC  

unfortunately that band, much like Chris Cornell, is dead af

2018-10-12 16:15:22 UTC  

I've never seen Kanye as a rapper

2018-10-12 16:15:24 UTC  

personally

2018-10-12 16:15:37 UTC  

the ones i like are lyricists almost exlusively

2018-10-12 16:15:50 UTC  

Kanye isn't doing that necessarily

2018-10-12 16:16:14 UTC  

he seems to want to use words in a way to have multiple meanings within the same line which lyricists dont typically seem to do

2018-10-12 16:16:23 UTC  

sure there's metaphor but not layered the same way

2018-10-12 16:16:42 UTC  

This is one area I'd like Ben Shapiro to stfu about

2018-10-12 16:16:50 UTC  

Rage against the machine were basic but powerful to the point the us gobt had to silence them

2018-10-12 16:17:12 UTC  

Their message was anarchy tho

2018-10-12 16:17:22 UTC  

Kanye sounds even better live sometimes

2018-10-12 16:17:44 UTC  

@Baal when did they get shut down?

2018-10-12 16:18:02 UTC  

i mean shit they were at the Republican National Convention performing

2018-10-12 16:18:09 UTC  

which was an... interesting choice

2018-10-12 16:18:22 UTC  

How the hell did that convo even go.

2018-10-12 16:19:00 UTC  

"Hey Frank, you know what seems a great idea to me? Let's bring in a band that genuinely hates everything we do and have THEM perform at our RNC. Winning idea right?"

2018-10-12 16:19:10 UTC  

"My god Joe! THATS AMAZING!"

2018-10-12 16:19:48 UTC  

I used to watch Morning Joe

2018-10-12 16:19:53 UTC  

does anyone still watch that?

2018-10-12 16:21:43 UTC  

also RATM never was able to admit they themselves are part of the machine.
