pizza face Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 This seems a little more reasonable than the price tag for stoney that I've see close to $50 at retail. Probably will buy if I see it in store for $30 or less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethereal Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 this is one dude where I do not get the hype at all.. yet people flock to him every new release like he’s actually talented.. is it because he plays 3 chords on an acoustic guitar when the auto tune gets dull? we will never know... danmpie7 and texan4life 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good dude and a good songwriter. I'm not in love with his music, but he manages to drop good singles and can really drop gems every once in a while. Stay for example I think is his best song he's made, but as a whole I'm not a big fan of this album. I know a lot of people who are though, and I'm sure some VCers want this on wax.

I've been waiting for this for a while. Will likely wait for the Amazon PO, though. 2 hours ago, V3XED said: I havent clicked the link yet.

B-dosia Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I lost all respect for this dude after he was throwing shade at Earl Sweatshirt and more spesificly Doris in some twitter rant. That album is a classic. Post better cash in now, nobody will care about him in a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll just leave it at to each their own. Earl has bonified talent, and has been a prodigy since he was in his young teens. Post got taken on tour to open for Bieber off a one hit wonder song. I guess we shall have to wait and see who is still relevant in a year or two. Edited August 17, 2018 by B-dosia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said we don't have to see who's relevant in 2 years because Earl has fallen off already due to his lack of music output. Also, sho cares who's relevant, Doris is a timeless record and will forever be remembered, Post has timeless songs like Rockstar and Stay. Fuck relevance, just make good music and you'll be remembered. NorrisNuts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-dosia Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 The great ones don’t feel the need to constantly put out albums and mixtapes every year or multiple times a year. Earl is still very busy but on the producing side. Most of the bands/artists who make good music their albums are years apart. If Post gets another opening slot for Bibes maybe he will be relevant a year from now. I’ll give you that, but most likely he will go the way of Riff Raff, Asher Roth, Vanilla Ice, and Wacklemore. I like a lot of white hip hop artists. Atmosphere , Brother Ali, Eyedea, pretty much the whole Rhymesayers roster. Action Bronson got skills. My home town boy G-Eazy .And Mac Miller are all good artists. And I’m sure I forgot many more (Beastie Boys the OG’s for one ) I would not put Post on the same caliber as them, but maybe they will let him open a show for them.

I think he's the next Drake. Edit: Keep in mind that "Stoney" went triple platinum and "Beerbongs and Bentlys" has already gone double platinum. Neither of the Earl Sweatshirt albums have even gone gold. Edited August 17, 2018 by thedillon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say your theory is flawed. Besides how many songs can you make about smoking weed and drinking? That shit is played out. We’ve had legal marijuana for 20 + years here in California. Maybe where your from it still is exciting and new. I also forgot to chime in on your “The next Drake” comment I don’t even like drake but I find that statement hilirous , after he tops Drake maybe he will run for office too. we can only hope. I’m deep in the hip hop community in my area and I don’t know one person who listens to Post, or at least admits to it. Keep bumpin that top 40 rap, just cuz he gets radio play don’t make it good, just means palms got greased. You want to go off numbers. I’m talking about talent there is a big difference. I look forward to taking your $$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-dosia Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 It all makes sense now your a Texas girl. You better learn about real rappers from Texas like Pimp C , Bun B , UGK and the Ghetto Boys. They put it down. Not studio gangsters like your boy. Do your homework. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSchwimmer Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I will literally make a bet with anyone that wants to take me up, Post will have 3 or more singles go top 5 on the charts in the next year not including any of the songs he has on the charts now. I’m addition his next album whenever is comes out will go platinum. I am 100% serious. I’ll put $200 up against $100. I get the hate and I’m not a huge fan or anything but he is an absolute superstar with staying power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedillon Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 This guy getting all butt hurt calling me a Texas girl Hahaha. You take a friendly bet and turn it into an insult. What an asshole You can act all pretentious and shit if you want but I don’t even listen to hip hop and if I do it’s j Cole or digable planets. I love how you just jump to conclusions assuming I’m a post malone fan because I think he’s a superstar. I couldnt care less about him I just think you’re completely delusional if you think post Malone is going to be irrelevant in 2 years. I set a reminder on my calendar and will come back in a year asking for your Venmo account to request my winnings and you better man up and pay! also I’ve worked in the music industry for 12 years now and have seen a lot. It’s MUCH harder to go platinum now than it used to be. That’s why you don’t hear about ALBUMS going platinum very often. Singles sure all time but we’re talking about him selling 5 million albums in an age where people don’t buy music anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude surely won't pay up. That said, don't take anything he says seriously because I'm not sure he can actually read. In the thread for that MuggsxDDOOM single I said I wasn't crazy about a song and that it was stupid to charge $50 for a single and he lost his damn mind acting like I'd personally insulted him and attacked DOOM as an artist (one of my favorite rappers). There is no impulse control there. I'm with him in that I don't love Post. I'm just in here because my lady likes his music and I thought she might want this record. I do on the other hand realise that there are people beyond the underground hip-hop community who listen to music and can see how he would remain relevant.

B-dosia Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I. Always keep my bets, $100 is nothing to me. I make 8K every week.

timsimmons Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Has he "sold" 5 million albums or are we counting streams? Because I assume his fanbase is made up of teens and college kids who stream more than buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
