May 13, 2015 Thanks for participating , and ftr you can have interludes that don't necessarily have to be raps, but like fit the general vibe of a rap-oriented album. And rules are in OP
May 13, 2015 This tape is a loose narrative following a relationship from its conception to its end. The title is an allusion to Joni Mitchell's Blue as well as Bob Dylan's Blood on the Tracks which both dealt with heartache. The painting is Judith Beheading Holofernes painted by Carravagio. DISCLAIMER: The tracklist spoils the arch. I advise listening first. Spoiler
May 13, 2015 I think I'm going to make the cut-off for sign ups sometime between me waking up and lunch time
May 13, 2015 @CharlieWork we're not supposed to be posting ours yet. I didn't see anything past track 1 but you gotta follow the rules Playboy :P pls delete
May 13, 2015 @Narsh @Flacko @ToPimpALegend @Cyreides Charlie brings up a good point, y'all can go ahead and start posting yours if you're ready. No rush as of now tho
May 13, 2015 lol i cant believe i was able to do this so quickly..i kind of want this thread to have more hype before i drop this
May 13, 2015 No, I'm fact y'all need no matter what to post the track list and narrative/theme in your post as well Posting an actual playlist stream is not required, and if you do post something make sure it's no more than like 1 link I don't want videos and players all over the thread slowing it down
May 13, 2015 Lol, 8track is just the name. I made it 10 tracks. It's named after short/cohesive albums. The tracklist kind of spoils the arch, so be warned. Spoiler
May 13, 2015 56 Nights Brazy: a story of love, lust, and loyalty. 1. 1017 Thug - Young Thug "2 Cups Stuffed" As the DJs inevitably make room for each others laptops in between sets, a lull befalls the blue-hued club previously riding a molly-high. Under the crescent of the dimmed lights, Young Thug fidgets with his bling — he doesnt know anyone here. As the club’s booming sound system come to a silence, Thug’s inner soundtrack kicks in — he just needs 2 cups stuffed. The Rich g--- hop out the club and into the whip. They’re riding with legends and all these b------s want to meet them. Almost instinctively, “2 Cups Stuffed” bursts to life the minute they hop in the Bentley. 2. Rich g---: Tha Tour Pt. 1 - Rich g--- "Tell ‘em (Lies)" Thug and Quan pull up on that p----, eat on it, and dip. 3. Rich g---: Tha Tour Pt. 1 - Rich g--- "Pull Up" As they’re dipping from pulling up, they get pulled up on. Shots are fired, shots are dodged, and then they pull up to a strip club: but can’t decide between Magic City or Follies. Also, it should be noted that, young n-----, Thugga’s diamonds are yellow like he goes to Benjamin E. Mays High School. 4. Barter 6 - Young Thug "Dome (ft. MPA Duke)" Diamonds they shower they shower Thug, and he’s got like 5 million and 12 hundred thousand hoes drippin’ all over his mofuckin’ clothes. SKURRRR — Thug and Duke are off their dome, they can’t make it home. I don’t think they should be driving. 5. Monster - Future “March Madness” It’s been 56 d--- nights and DJ Esco is finally sprung from jail…Future contemplates on the shattered state of race relations in the United States. Even thought he’s balling like the march madness, these past few months have been full of marches, riots, and protests for his fallen friends and family. In his community and nationwide. He tries to get Thug to listen, and add his two cents, but Thugger can’t seem to speak unless a DJ tag is dropped. We shining, we getting money, mutters Thug. Future smh’s. 6. 56 Nights - Future “Codeine Crazy” Future can’t seem to break out of his introspection, and Thug’s disillusion and disinterest in reality only sends him further down the rabbit hole. Only his fantasy is reality marked by his war crimes. He has PTSD, yet he’s the pillar for the same community that gave it to him. When Thug calls to check up on his slime, he says he's celebrating like the championship — but it isn’t all that convincing. 7. ThugGate2015 - Young Thug “Flaws” After Future nearly OD’s, Thug pleads for all to accept him and his friends, flaws and all. Gucci sheds a tear from prison. 8. Brick Factory: Volume 2 - Gucci Mane “Home Alone (ft. Ca$h Out, PeeWee Longway, Young Thug)” Home alone, Thug senses Gucci’s tear telepathically and sustains one, overlong, wail in reminiscence of his slime. 9. Lobby Runners 2 - Quavo “Trapper Girl (ft. PeeWee Longway, Young Thug)” Thug weaves together a heartfelt forewarning to future brodies — how many times does he need to tell you to keep the weed down? The windows may be tinted, but they’re rolled down. Just. Listen. To. Him. For. Once. He doesn’t want anymore of you arrested. 10. Brick Factory: Volume 3 - Gucci Mane “Ain’t Going Back (ft. MPA Duke, Young Thug) Gucci pens a poem from prison and sparks an intense debate with Thug about the life of someone who habitually frequents the pen. Slowly, Thug’s reluctance to reach out fades. T.I. coaches him towards making the first step in repairing his friendship with Gucci. Thug answers the next time Gucci tries to call, and they have a heart to heart. Thug reveals that he aint even like to rap, but now he gets over 9k racks per show. OVER 9K, exclaims Gucci, clearly shocked. Once they’re bool, they both do the respective parts of their handshake, miming the motions in mid air with one hand, their phones to their ears in the other. bonus: 11. N/A - Young Thug "Everything Gucci” Everything’s gucci. #FreeGucci.
May 13, 2015 I can put everybody's submissions on 8track to put in an OP and just promote S80 in general. @Sheriff Skippy @Narsh
