I like Odd Future, I appreciate the rawness of Tyler's production and the creative freedom they expel through their music, but I dont understand the hype they're getting at the moment. The lyrics often sound stupid and contrived purely for shock value, whilst the music in my opinion doesnt hold up too well on repeated listens.
I appreciate they have this cool persona thing going on, and I do like what they're doing, there's just many more hip hop acts out there that do/have done a similiar thing that get nowhere near the kudos these guys do.
Maybe this should go in the 'unpopular music opinions' thread.
