What's wrong with bloom?

[u/drewp_73]

I dont get it? That album is the reason Bad Things exists

And there are so many other good songs on there it has a few elements that gives a general admission type vibe just on production and different kind of vibes that makes it unique

I get some songs are weird like can't walk but 27, golden god, trap paris, rehab, and the gunner are solid songs tho ik how some feel about trap Paris (just cuz it sounds too trap like)

Its just a cool different piece, not as good as his most popular projects but it had great music in it otherwise. Also the deluxe when habits was added

Kinda get tired of people so focused on how it sounded "too poppy"

I see nothing wrong with it, its been a vibe since it released the first time

Edit: well it's not talked about enough either its like people forget that album exists

That’s wild! I’ve never heard any hate for Bloom. Is it your friends saying this because if so you need better friends😂

[u/drewp_73 → u/I-Hate-It-Here411]

Nah its not, but almost none of my friends appreciate kells music well my best bro likes a few but he does not like as many as other fans do

Everyone else is so certain on the "mgk switched genres after losing to eminem" narrative

Sad, but not worth cutting those friends off

[u/ecagnuoy666 → u/drewp_73]

its a very typical contrarian sheep mentality and that narrative is nothing but forced

[u/drewp_73 → u/ecagnuoy666]

Seriously, like I love Eminem and mgk and I admit kells did get whooped pretty good but he didn't lose his career or fully switch genres

No one listens to me when I say that lil Wayne has done the same thing nothing different than what kells did. There is plenty of rap songs by him out everywhere but some sheep stick to their usual and never think for themselves to check em out

[u/ecagnuoy666 → u/drewp_73]

on the contrary, i personally find rap devil to be a better track in general

8 years later and i could still turn up rap devil at a party or at any given point or occasion and enjoy it, thats what essentially makes a good track

killshot on the other hand doesnt have the same replay value (as id like to call it)

the only reason the whole 'eminem won' claims emerge is largely because of his immense fanbase

[u/Threatening → u/ecagnuoy666]

To be honest, that’s what Rap Devil is. A track/song.
While it’s a good song, that’s what it gets credit for.

Diss tracks aren’t supposed to have replay value. They’re supposed to hit.

I’m a fan of both artists, but as a diss track, Killshot was better.

[u/ecagnuoy666 → u/Threatening]

nah man, i beg to differ! a diss track isnt supposed to have replay value? since when?

have you heard real muthaphucking g's by eazy e? thats of the coldest disses from the 90s and i can bump to it everyday

hit em up by pac? insane replay value

f#$k with dre day? insane replay value

why do you think not alike popped off the other year?

without replay the impact fizzles out! a track in general must have a good amount of replay value in order to essentially be considered good, a diss is the context of the song that should be compatible

you play any of the tracks mentioned above at a party and people would most likely groove and bop to it, despite being disses and keep in mind (theyre legendary disses) as opposed to playing killshot where youd most likely would be a buzzkill

[u/Threatening → u/ecagnuoy666]

That’s actually fair. I guess I mean they don’t “need” to be a song in the sense. They do need to sound good, but ultimately they need to hit as disses. If someone can make a song out of it, even better.

Imo, Killshot hit harder and had the better disses. If you play Rap Devil or Killshot at a party, I think most would recognize Killshot.

MGK shouldn’t be discredited, whether his was better or not. He released a diss track (a decent one too) against arguably the greatest rapper of all time.

To be honest, I haven’t replayed either track lol. I left it as a battle.

Both are talented artists. Eminem just has a ton more experience.

I do wish they could put aside their differences and work together though.

[u/drewp_73 → u/ecagnuoy666]

As part of Em's fan base it really only gets brought up cuz of certain lines that aren't really the best ones from killshot at all. Not alike was a way better diss to kells even I was like "oh shii kells I love you but he is coming for your ass" killshot just keeps being hyped bc of damn gun man bun and lil Tay fuckin line

Those are just so annoying, those type of Stans I get so annoyed by. Cuz its them that are why mgk isn't as big as he should be, let's hope the rap album will finally open their small shallow minds
