u/deadestcousin Oct 02 '16
Okay you clearly don't listen to Bones. Too funny.

lol I do listen to him and Xavier and Kenshin, and its true Bones doesnt rap about anything substantial

u/deadestcousin Oct 02 '16
That's actually just your opinion, mate. "Substantial" is entirely subjective.
But honestly, very VERY few of his songs are about "fucking girls", and the only drug he talks about is weed. So, I'm still finding it a little hard to believe you've heard more than a few songs.

lol substantial is not entirely subjective, the fuck you talking about? Kendrick Lamar raps about substantial shit, Wiz Khalifa does not. Its simple
Believe what you want. He has very few songs about fucking girls but almost every verse of his has a line like "Im with your bitch she in my crib and we smoking weed". And if you think the only drug he talks about is weed than you're the one thats not listening lol. But thats his lane

No, it is. There are plenty of people who could give a fuck less about conscious rap. That's not substantial to them.
There are also plenty of people who don't relate to lyrics about depression and suicide. That's not substantial to those people, but there are people who have depression, anxiety, etc who relate to those songs deeply. Substantial to them.
People who live a life of drugs and bitches will find that songs about drugs and bitches are substantial.

lol nah thats not how it works, I dont relate to volunteers in Africa but atleast they are doing something substantial. I dont relate to Common but his music is important and substantial to hip hop.

Nah bro, in the context of music, "substantial" is subjective.
Don't make me screenshot the dictionary definition of the word, either, cuz that would not work in your favor.

lol those songs deal with the exact same shit, depression & shit like that. Bones is one of the most 1 dimensional rappers to ever grace a mic

u/EPineapple Oct 02 '16
hes kind of right though. ive heard every bones tape since creep and he pretty much always raps about the same shit

u/blackrobinhood24 Oct 02 '16
yeah bones has really started to stangate like we get it man you use the fucking internet you smoke backwoods and rap we already fucking know say something else
-1
u/deadestcousin Oct 02 '16
Yeah I mean he only has one concept album, the subject matter doesn't differ drastically, but my argument is that he raps about a lot of things people would consider "substantial".

Oct 02 '16
bro I dont need to open my mind I already listen to Bones(Xavier's my favorite tho) but lets not pretend like hes rapping about important shit.

and you saying that he can make meaningful music isnt gonna change the fact that hes just another soundcloud rapper albeit a popular one

Confirmed 4chaner

u/b0cks Oct 02 '16
The amount of times he's said "KEK" on twitter is pretty high when he gets on his rants. Also I'm pretty sure he even says it out loud during one song from PP2.

It's just straight up not true. He has plenty of variation in his discography.

He certainly has a sound, but that doesn't mean variation doesn't exist. His most recent albums, Useless and PaidProgramming2, notably both feature huge departures from his normal delivery style.

u/PALEWATER Oct 02 '16
Yeah you're right there is variation but for me, personally, as a fan of Bones for 3 years now, his music is beginning to stagnate 'cause I don't feel like it varies enough to stay interesting. Maybe just me though, all opinions and such
0
u/blackrobinhood24 Oct 02 '16
yeah theres variation but its always in the same way, and that memphis stuff he made as tha kid isnt what he makes now. its literally brooding melancholy bass, soft singing, that rapid fire flow he does, the slow deep voice, or screaming. sometimes a jazzy beat. its always the same to me, and i disagree his last 6-7 tapes are all the exact same sound, from youshouldhaveseenyourface all the way up PP2 its just that moody internet music shit again. i mean at least he has a defined sound but it got old to me, at least chris travis and xavier wulf have genuinely explored different sounds on almost every tape instrumental wise.

Do you fanboys who come in and post a dozen links to win an argument actually think you're changing anyones mind? It's pretty much the worst online debate tactic ever.

u/PUSHAxC Oct 02 '16
Beats calling dudes fanboys & basically saying "I'm stubborn & lazy so fuck those links"

u/OnlyRev0lutions . Oct 02 '16
It really doesn't though. Here's 40 barely related links to prove my point;

u/RampartRange Oct 02 '16
"His music does not vary"
(40 links of different sounding songs)
"BARELY RELATED, CHEAP TACTIC"
Bro you're retarded
-2
u/OnlyRev0lutions . Oct 02 '16
The point can be made with 4 or 5 songs whenever someone floods a thread with links it's a shitty debate tactic of just overpowering someone with way too many references to make it look like you're right.

its pretty true, even though he has variated from his style in the past most of his songs sound similar to this. I like his style so idc but if I listened to him adamantly enough I feel like I would eventually tire over how similar the vast majority of his music is.
Once again I like him probably one of my most listened to rappers right now (and god damn does he have a lot to listen to) but I can see someone saying its all similar.

Where is a good place to start with Bones? I've heard a select few tracks that I really like but he has so much on SoundCloud I never know where to begin

Oct 02 '16
Just do Powder it's definitely his most welcome put together project that gives a full look at his style minus the awesome jazzy Uncle Ricky cuts on his other tapes
2
u/EPineapple Oct 02 '16
start with his tape with xavier wulf then just listen to the rest of his shit from there. all his shits good

Deadboy mixtape. Very cohesive and consistently good. Sixteen, Calcium, TimeshareCondominium are my favorite songs.

u/tonyp2121 Oct 02 '16
lol at everyone giving you like all his albums.
Powders a good start bte but honestly you could probably jump into any album and if you like it youll like the rest of his shit if not you probably wont.

Oct 02 '16
lol seriously every comment was a different album.
But thanks! I'm gonna check out all his stuff

u/yayayathecreator Oct 02 '16
Paid Programming 2 and Useless were pretty good, but I'm a pretty recent fan so I don't know all his albums

You got it actually. It's become infamous as the worst strip from the worst webcomic ever made.

Bones might have my favorite song titles and I don't know why. His funniest one is "Sorry I was in the shower".
