"Yonkers"

What kind of expectations do you have for Goblin? Does internet hype translate to album sales?

From what I've heard ("Yonkers" and now "Tron Cat"), Goblin doesn't seem like it's going to be too different from Bastard. Good thing I guess.

Odd Future is everywhere on the internet and they are resonating with a lot of different people ranging from hip-hop fans to Pitchfork (wannabe) hipsters, they have a movement, and are receiving a ton of critical acclaim. I think first week sales would be somewhere around 100K at the max (I would hope 50K at the absolute minimum). I'd love to see him sell more and prove me wrong since Odd Future is their own creation without any major label tampering... I'm just kind of hesitant to say he will when huge stars like Wiz Khalifa aren't even selling 200k first week.

topped bastard.

It's alright. I think one of the problems I have with it is that it doesn't have the same novelty that Bastard did the first time I heard it.
Just like Bastard I think there's some really dope stuff here but there's some filler too. 6.5/10 after first listen, maybe it'll grow on me.

The second half of the album is not comparable to the first but I only listened to it once it might grow on me

This album is almost a rip off of relapse.  I like it a lot, but the first track has basically the same intro and em's influence is easily heard.

Yeah he also made a reference to Waka Flocka on Goblin doesn't mean he's ripping him off.

And even then, if it is in fact a similiarity whatever happened to paying homage to your influences.

"it makes sense that the rise of Odd Future started in the avant UK music mag The Wire" 

The Pitchfork review of Goblin just gave credit to Noz for blowing Odd Future up. I'm sure he disagrees with that though. Noz is very responsible for a lot of the attention that OF received from the Fader, Pitchfork, etc. (the music critic side of things) but the movement mainly grew from word of mouth throughout sites like the the Hypebeast message boards, Tumblr and then on to other places.

Haha, my close friend is friends with Tyler on Facebook. Their conversation went something like this:

Friend: Yo man I heard your album dropped how is it?

Tyler: it ****in sucks I don't even listen to it

Friend: Why?

Tyler: I've never rapped before

Friend: clearly....

Tyler: duh

Friend: So should I listen to it?

Tyler: no, you can buy it though. just don't even listen to it cuz it sucks

I wish that everyone at Pitchfork would get a painful destructive fatal stomach virus-Halftime-
