    Don't feel like reading thru 8 pages of irrational stanning so I'll put this tidbit I wrote last night here and if any Travis fan has a proper rebuttal feel free to argue

    "They're (referring to DBR and R) two subjectively enjoyable psuedo-trap projects carried by travis' large suite of all-star producers and feature artists. With the exception of a handful of songs, travis' input is only interesting when he's A-blatantly biting other, more innovative artists (Sremm on Antidote, Q on Ok Alright, Starrah on PUTTP) or B-harmonizing with the beat in a flat tone that falls somewhere between poor Tory Lanez karaoke and middling Kid Cudi karaoke drowned in vocal effects(Skyfall, Company). A large part of why Birds is (rightly) considered inferior is because the beats are less atmospheric and Travis isn't able to just moan into a microphone and let Mike Dean clean it up to sound nice, and instead of trying to play catch-up with his features via imitation (The Game-style) he actually uses his own melodies and structures independent of the feature (like on The Ends or Outside). The problem with that is that it shows how painfully bland his writing and flows are when he isn't directly copying.

    Now personally I love Travis' (stolen hodge-podge of) sound(s), La Flame was one of the first "trap" artists (I know he's not truly trap but he borrows enough elements for me to consider him as such when I was an entry level listener) I got into back in '13 with Owl Pharaoh, and his collabs w Thugga, Migos, etc are the reasons I branched out and gave those artists a chance. I have at least 50+ unreleased tracks (most of which are readily available online, I'm not trying to flex w that statement). I went to the (first) Rodeo show at the House of Blues in downtown Houston and it was one of the greatest nights of my life, but despite all that I can put my personal bias aside and see Travis for the hack he is, his contributions are almost exclusively style-over-substance affairs in which the style is stolen and the substance is non-existent.

    People who see Travis as anywhere near Thug's level or anywhere close to any level of modern rap hierarchy are either ppl who are new to rap and don't know better than to attribute Travis' flagrant thefts as innovation (speaking from prior personal experience and experience w the "Travis stan" stereotype you can see here and on any rap discussion forum) or ppl who don't fundamentally understand the ways his contemporaries innovate and excel."

    Trav SXN died because all the threads that were made about him were selling unreleased s--- and not what you outlined above.

    And the SXN was dead as f---. We have an apparent abundance of Trav stans yet no unique discussions or threads were made about him when the SXN was alive for those few months. It was a ghost town.

    Just thought I'd fill you in on it's history.
    If it's not a snippet posted then it's a [I have x song, willing to trade for x] type of thread which is such a s-----y look for an artist sxn.

    Nah I was out all day yesterday so I'm slowly catching up on everything I missed out on. Just so happens a lot of Trav discussion was going on and your post went unanswered so I figured I'd help out. :laff:
