/mu/ - Music (Temp full images)

i love you dean

his music is horrible.

>haven't seen one of these in a while


havent seen one of these ever.

no one gives a shit about this fag music

I liked Black Metal a whole lot (probably aoty 2014), then checked out Redeemer and Narcissist too, also good. Didn't care for any of the Hype Williams stuff at all.

does anyone have "Watch the Throne 2"? it wasn't an official thing blunt uploaded but it was available online as a bootleg. can't find that shit now

How old is he?

>>54457061
it's on soundcloud

But anyway not much to talk about with dean

He won the nme but sent his bodyguard to pickup the award for him. based as fuck

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyzE5QH_x2I once again sent his bodyguard to read his poetry. Brilliant stuff good listen.

It took me a long time to realize that hype Williams wasn't the same one that directed hip hop music videos

Also the redeemer is one of the greatest albums of our time.

>Also the redeemer is one of the greatest albums of our time.
favorite song?

>>54457315
Prolly flaxen, but it's one of those albums you always have to listen to all the way through, so I often don't think of it in terms of individual tracks

>>54457351
>>54457315
>not Brutal
come on guys you know it's the most impactful

>>54457257
This is cool as shit
>tfw will never see Dean live

i tried to listen to Hype Williams once and I did not like it
But I absolutely love Blunt and Inga's solo work
It was a good breakup

Anyways, what's that Ferraro collab?

>>54457479
i think it's just a jam session sort of

>>54457426
Brutal is one of my least favorite, it relies too much on his shoddy voice. My favorite is by far id Walls of Jericho followed by All Dogs Go To Heaven and Demon.

>>54457479
It's just ferraro and dean fucking around on the piano and dean humming shit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymVbayWVGMw

funny thing the crowd talking is a sample :)

>>54457522
Not a big fan of Walls Of Jericho, it works good in the context of the album but as a stand alone track it just gets repetitive. Demon however, and All Dogs Go To Heaven are great

You were working hard baby

>>54455919
I tried to get into their stuff because my sister recommended it. I like the mysteria behind their personas but their music didn't really back that whole vibe they built up around them.
I'm downloading The Redeemer now though- hope I can get into it

>>54457781
legit jealous of having a cool sister

>>54455919
Who's that standing behind him?

>>54457813
His bodyguard

>>54457806
yeah she rocks- I've owe her so much
So should I start with The Redeemer?

>>54457840
Who the fuck wants to hurt Dean?

>>54457859
Yeah
if too weird 4 u then try black metal

>>54457859
yeah, it's maybe the best starting point although you can't go wrong with Black Metal either

so in that periode he always hired a black (pref.) muscular bodyguard, for appearance i guess. tuffen it up, lol. now he plays free jazz...??

>>54457859
ya why not
but it's an album about breakups so if you never felt heartbroken you might not like it.

black metal is pretty accessible has something for everybody

if youre into more hip hop influence stuff The Narcissist II is right up your alley. It's like watching a bet movie but in audio of course

>>54457870
>>54457895
Yeah I think it's just an aesthetic thing. He also said he always likes to keep one black guy around at all times

>tfw she got a new nigga now we can't be fam

>>54457939
cuz his fanbase is white ppl lol who white here reply 2 this comment if u r white

>>54457895
>>54457870
Bodyguard is just for show. it's making parody of hip hop and such.
In deans words "i feel more comfortable with having another brother in the room with me"

He did a live show once. where the whole night he just had kevin hart playing in the background and drake and nicki minaj music blasting at full volume. in darkness where you couldn't see him
until the last 20minutes he finally started playing stuff off redeemer then he left.

>>54457257

brilliant

>>54457257
I've never really gotten into poetry so I don't get this..
Can someone explain what makes it rad? I'd legit wanna know

mersh is my jam

>>54458083
Nothing to get really
Dean Blunt's ability to both parody and realize archetypes is one of a kind.

Basically hes making a serious issue funny

>>54458159
But how can you even be sure he's parodying if you hardly know anything about him? Hell, I thought he was from London but his accent is clearly american

redeemer > narcissist 2 > black metal

>>54458372
The Redeemer > Black Is Beautiful > Narcissist 2 > Stone Island > Untitled > One Nation > Black Metal > Watch What Happens...

>new album when

>>54458342
that's not him in the video

>>54458342
He is from london(hackney) but iirc went to art school in virgnia and teaches "urban youths" nation of islam shit in atlanta

but majority of his life has been in london. he was in a london parody band itself as a bass player Graffiti Island

Yea you right I don't really know if hes parody. but he wants to remain undefined. and "stay out of it" like he says in lush

I like his music and his art is just icing on the cake

>>54458342
This is the only footage of him talking I found so far:

Nah black metal is better then the narcissist for sure
forever,100,lush,50 cent cmon m8s

Black is beautiful is okay for the texture but it's just a collection of songs really. track 9 is goat.

Agree with the rest of the list

saw mr. blunt last year in LA.

the venue was fogged out throughout the night and it was completely dark except for a few lights around. he started with some songs from the redeemer then played through nearly all of black metal.

its hard to describe the feeling of being there. the music itself was beautiful but dean's presence was very intimidating. i dont think he ever directly spoke with the audience but he would stare directly at people in the crowd and pace around the stage looking like he was ready to start fighting someone.

>>54458495
I'll be going to art school myself so I'm trying to see where he's coming from. I'm not quite sure if I dig the ambiguity he leaves open in his art; it seems a bit lazy.
I'm like the music though:
>comfy as fucK

>>54458555
Thought Black Metal was crap. Starts out decently and 50 Cent is one of his best stand alone tracks but I'm not a fan of anything else on that album.

Black Is Beautiful is amazing imo, on par with The Redeemer and definitely the best Blunt/Copeland work.

>>54458607
I think thats what he wants his art to feel like "lazy"and hes high 24/7 so ya I think thats what he's going for to give you that feeling.

but it's not he puts alot of effort into it.

I mean his music is itself is pure samples but you can't really tell.

the song the redeemer. he sampled fleetwood mac oh daddy. and a couple words from puff daddy on the song victory.

>>54457257
thanks but i was asking about Watch the Throne 2, the second one. first one is readily available, but the second one i can't find anymore. it was a bootleg recording of their set from Unsound that year. similar vibe but twice as long.
