Method Man had one good album in him (Tical).
(1.5, I suppose, counting his efforts with Redman)
Top tunes that Rscouses loves
- Edited
rhouses I get what all the fuss is about. Tune.
Jesus fucking christ rhouses.
Yes it really is a tune - but you’re 11 years late and nothing she’s made recently has been as good.
But go back and listen to the albums ‘Visions’ and ‘Halfaxa’, and the song ‘Realiti’ (music video version), for more of what you missed out on.
To be fair, Grimes has only just come available at Abdul’s Tape and CD X-change.
hugopal I am with Hugo on this.
Was listening to this track when it first came out. Regrettably, I missed her in Hong Kong by just a few days, if I had been there at the time I would have seen her on that tour.
Of recent tracks, though, I have heard this on a proper system (Dada in Beijing) and it was magnificent…
My son’s a fan. Violence is quality. Don’t like much else I have heard
Is it possible for rhouses’ to destroy a reputation thats already completely in tatters anymore than it already is? It looks like it.
Rhouses is just a massive fucking belter.

On paper she probably represents everything I would avoid like the plague. This played while I was watching music videos with my daughter and instinct told me to hit “next”, but damn, that beat dropped on Oblivion and it was “whoah”, sick break down half way through as well. Watched some live performances and was genuinely impressed by how tight she was. For someone associated with Elon Musk, was pleasantly surprised how she doesn’t take herself seriously… enjoyed her interviews.
hugopal I should commit to the albums end to end? Worth the time? Seems big “singles” driven, with the rest of the stuff being pretty weird and ‘avantgarde’.
We rescued you from a Harry Styles disaster too.
Must be my hearing but I can’t make out a word of what she’s singing.
Dunno but I think we should seriously consider it.

Halfaxa and Visions - yes.
Visions was more big “singles” driven but there’s still other good stuff on there. Whereas Halfaxa is for me her best and most cohesive album, which is overall more vibe-y and atmospheric and where even the most avantgarde stuff is enjoyable and works in tandem with everything else.

It’s well produced but I think the song wanders in to being annoying.

That’s a shame - I’m presuming it’s the same tour where the footage from this video was taken from (seems like it was made in March 2013 and some of it is HK)?
Her last truly great song imo.
I got to see her in Berlin as part of her Art Angels tour and it was pretty good.
How bad were the Christians in Manipur treated.
rhouses I think that’s Singapore.
Further to my comment above, some of it is definitely filmed in HK - Carnarvon Plaza at 2:25 in the vid is in HK.
