When listening to his albums usually around the 3rd or 4th track I begin to fall into some sort of haze. It is similar to sleep paralysis. I usually am conscience and get really scared but when I think about earl a certain euphoria overcomes me and I feel at peace. If I let the fear consume me I begin to sense what I believe to be a demonic presence; usually Ra the God of sun in Hitlers flesh. I kind of think of it as Ying and Yang the ancient Asian symbol. where Earl is good with a small amount of evil in him(because he is a drug addict) and the foul omen his music brings are the bad with a small amount of good.
Can anyone else relate?, Thanks.
As someone who has read extensively on it, I think its so tough that his mom is a critical race theorist🔥💪. That's it.
so last night i was fried as per usual, and i deadass thought me and earl were ex homies that stopped talking. i remember hanging with him so vividly its almost scary, and i swear i had him added on snap too. now i just have to decide if i need to put the spliff down or take a break from earl, but both are a large part of my routine, so i think im just cooked.
At 2:37 into solace, is that a smoke alarm beep, or am I losing my mind?
It’s my first time doing a mashup so don’t hate me 🙏
I've listened to some of his albums (Doris, foc, and voir dire ) in the background while doing things, i really like his style, and i want to get more into his music. How should i approach it ?
some rap songs was the first earl album I listened to when I first got into him a few months back and I almost gave up on him after that ngl. I loved ontheway! and shattered dreams enough to give his other work a fair shot though. since then his discography has become one of my favorite but I still just can't get into a lot of srs no matter how much I get used to the sound.
I feel like a lot of his music you need to both be in a similar deteriorated mental state as he was, as well as give it multiple listens in order to fully appreciate it. idlsidgo and solace are two of my favorite projects of all time because of that and I didn't like either of them very much on my first listen. but I've heard srs in full 3 times now and my opinion is still relatively the same with a few more hits than my first listen. if I had to rank it in terms of my enjoyment of his projects it'd be below Doris, idlsidgo, solace, and maybe even sick. despite that I know this is a lot of people's favorite project from him and I really just don't get it. to me it seems like he captured those feelings of depression better in solace and idlsidgo, with better beat selection and rapping on both but especially on idlsidgo. solace is more similar to it and I adore that project, but I feel like the beats on each part succeeded more with me than on srs.
anyone have any ideas why I don't fw a lot of this album? not saying it's bad by any means I just could never seem to get into it
Voir Dire is Earl's best album and one of the best hip-hop albums ever.
I love Earl the mixtape, and I was wondering if there were any songs or albums from anyone similar to it (besides Bastard and other early OF stuff)
their pretty cool tbh
Saw as a listing but cant see any other times when he signed 3x. Is it legit?
Which one do you think is the better lyricist
I see a lot of people saying that MIKE is the best but personally I think Earl and MAVI are both better, but when it comes down to picking THE BEST it literally goes back and forth depending on which song I listened to last.
I'll hear "EL TORO COMBO MEAL" and be like "Shiiiit, MAVI really just bodied Earl" but then I'll listen to "Woah" and think "Nope, nobody is better than Earl, he is literally the best rapper to touch a mic" but then I'll hear "Miracle Baby" and go "I dont know, maybe MAVI is better"
What do yall think about these 3? They are all very similar but who do you think is the best lyricist? Who do you think has the better pen?
any sad situation leads me to earls music but is there any specifics i should know of for relationships
I see him around the city and even heard he’s working with Ka$ei noko. What’s going on ? 👀
I gotta go with
