Are you talking exclusively about rap albums? Seems to me you're making a point about albums, of all genres, in general. Not to mention, your well established stance about TV being too long and film being superior in that regard.LoathedVermin72 wrote:You clearly don’t listen to a lot of rap albumsdurdencommatyler wrote:The attention span of the average consumer has grown dangerously short.
You really think my comments about this have to do with me having a short attention span? I just appreciate brevity and efficiency. Things are only too long when they have unnecessary filler, which is almost always the case with albums and TV shows.durdencommatyler wrote:Are you talking exclusively about rap albums?

No, I don't think they have to do with a short attention span exclusively. Not at all. But it's a factor in the average consumer culture, in general. Absolutely.LoathedVermin72 wrote:You really think my comments about this have to do with me having a short attention span? I just appreciate brevity and efficiency.

As someone who appreciates Kanye and his production skills far more than he likes Kanye and his voice/performances, I gotta say, this is pretty fucking exciting.LoathedVermin72 wrote:Holy fuck, Kanye just tweeted that he produced a new Nas album dropping in June as well. Goddamn.

1. Focused and consistent.
2. Everything but the kitchen sink
I find his albums of the first variety to be amazing, and of the second variety to be quite shitty.
