Jan 29, 2016 But going back to that analogy, this is like if someone came out with a new album called the College Dropout and said "yes this is mine I'm going to make it the best album ever it will be a classic" People would be in an uproar But nobody knows who Max B is so f--- it
Jan 29, 2016 True.. But I feel like if he were to do one, he would have done it already. I can't see him putting one out unless Kanye responds in some way which would be stupid because he already looks like an idiot. Let's make this a Max B appreciation thread guys.
Jan 29, 2016 Ftr I personally have no problem w Kanye calling it waves, I'm js pointing out the history and being annoyed that teenage hypebeasts are gonna make this THE "waves" is completely rational
Jan 29, 2016 Wavy is technically Max B's term, so it's not taking the exact name. Also, its a word (not even the exact same word), and that's different than taking a name like College Dropout
Jan 29, 2016 This is the most nitpicky argument ever Fine, hypothetically someone drops a new album called Dropout and takes to twitter talking about how revolutionary and amazing they are for it, Kanye fans would be in an uproar calling him a biter. Wiz didn't even directly call him a biter he was just annoyed that the meaning behind waves in rap is about to be taken away and repurposed
Jan 29, 2016 I wouldn't care, only a nerd would care about something like that. I also wouldn't even think of Kanye if someone named their album Dropout. Maybe if they named it "Beezus" or some s---. Which I understand could be similar to naming it "Waves", but like I said that term has been used often over the last year. Things get reinvented all the time, that's the way the world works. By his logic it's ok to take other artists' styles (curren$y, cudi, snoop) but when someone uses a word that's crossing the line? Edit: also him riding the wave and putting out whatever the f--- the Trap Wiz s--- was
Jan 29, 2016 Again, I'm not saying Kanye doesn't have the right to name it waves, I'm saying if my favorite rappers' defining work was repurposed by a popular rapper and all the kids talked about it as if its the defining one I'd be salty too
