“Check the score, we f*ckin’ winnin’. Check the list, we in the building’. Stupid swag,
Paris Hilton.”
They may just be on to something.
Odd Future released their second album where everyone from
the group is featured earlier this week.
The OF Tape, Vol. 2 showcases everybody’s style over their fire beats. Tyler really came a long way from “Hot Ass
Beat, Clap.” As much as I love samples,
I can appreciate that Odd Future make most of their beats. These guys (and Syd) are truly hit-makers and
a force to be reckoned with. Some people
may like that this crew has decided not to be as out there and “psychotic” this
time around, gaining them a lot more attention.
Because, you know, not everyone has people talking to them in their
heads or wants to burn their school down.
Fortunately for their fans, they haven’t lost their crazy and hilarious charm
they’re Youtube famous for, giving us outrageous tracks like their single “Rella”,“We
Got B*tches,” and “Hi,” featuring a brief description of each member of OF
featuring L-Boy.
Frank Ocean and The Internet give us some chill, R&B
tracks on this album. Ocean delivers a
serenade on “White,” which I’m hoping is a preview to his album coming out this
spring. Matt and Syd give us the sexy,
sultry track “Ya Know,” in which love prevails when it comes to the person they
want to be with.
On their song “Oldie,” nine of the members in the group (including
Earl) spit a few bars over the ten minute, 36 second track. With this track you can’t deny the talent and
skills these rappers offer. Tyler, the
Creator gives us part 2 to his infectious “Analog,” with Frank Ocean and Syd
tha Kyd hopping on it this time around.
While enjoying Hodgy Beats and Frank on “Snow White,” I had to check my
headphones during the end- but of course it was OF messin’ with us, adding unnecessary
static as the song faded out. The other songs on this 18 album track show just
how much this crew has improved over a short period of time (another highlight
is “P”). They’ve already proven themselves
to millions, but if you’re not one of them, cop the album and hear OF- they
have officially taken over.
