YOUNG THUG WEEK CONTINUES, AND I GUESS FUTURE RELEASED AN ALBUM TOO?


Finally listened to Dirty Sprite 2.  It's aight, but where did this "Honest sucked" memo come from?  Honest was FUTURE'S Tusk.   Not everything was great, but it was the album where he let those cellulars breathe.

Meanwhile, the appreciation for Barter 6 grows.  One thing I can respect about YOUNG THUG and Future is that neither of 'em has ever made an AOR album for the Rolling Stone ofays.  The very title of Barter 6 pokes fun at the notion of preordained classics, word to WAYNE'S pompous Carter imprimatur.  It's a slapdash mix of great songs, which is what a great pop album should be.  No grandiose statement-making, that shit is for the CHRIS GAINESES of the world, that's word to KEITH URBAN.  And hey, rap nerds hate on Carter 3, but that was the last album you'd hear blastin outta one whip in every six, that's word to Saturn.  People actually listenin to Barter 6, and we some grassroots populist soapboxers over here.  That's word to William Jennings Bryan.
