Pet Peeves

alright, i was listening to The Sun Rises In The East, and one of my biggest pet peeves strikes again. I hate dope songs that too short(Mental Stamina). Any of you have the same or other pet peeves?

Yeah that shit pisses me off tremendously

It feels like a waste of a dope beat or a dope concept

Agreed...another thing that irritates me is when songs are just one long ass verse with no real concept or substance. K Rino usually delivers but multiple songs like this on one album get really fuckin old (like MF Doom and others).

My biggest pet peeve are songs that have one minute-plus long skits at the beginning or end of them. I hate that shit with a passion!

Co-sign you there KJ.

Also, bonus tracks that are added onto songs or put before songs with that negative time shit. That REALLY pisses me off. Bonus tracks should be bonus TRACKS.

i dont really care about this shit, i actually really enjoy short songs, they cant fall into the category of "dragging on"

that said too short of songs can be bad, but short in general is not to me

what pisses me off more is when theres a dope beat in an intro of a song then the beat changes to something not as good for the actual song, or when a dope beat is wasted on a skit

"My biggest pet peeve are songs that have one minute-plus long skits at the beginning or end of them. I hate that shit with a passion!"

Indeed. That was my problem with The R.E.B.I.R.T.H.

Gospel Choruses..with the exception of 'Get By'........it can stay.

Pointless Skits...while some may fit the mold and contribute to the album..I 99.9% skip the skits...

Auto-Tune..when i heard Snoop do it..a part of me died..(its just...annoying)

The phrases, "Up in the Club"--"Lookin' so...."--Anything Plies says..

Instructional Dance tunes..especially nowadays, jesus christ, I wonder what a studio session is like with some of these stupid fuckin' songs and the idiots spewing them out...

Turning on the radio

LMAO @ Acrid Co-sign

That shit about a dope interlude that segues into a not as dope song tops my list. Shit drives me nuts.

Pete Rock is infamous for that shit. He used give you like 20 seconds of an outrageously good instrumental between tracks.

92 Interlude from Daily Operation. First thing I thought of when I saw this lol

ditto

My biggest pet peeve is too many skits. If I wanted to hear somebody talk, I would have bought an audiobook.

I can't stand cheap ass looking cd's. like the damn Jive cd's from the early 90's. Them damn UGK, Too Short, and KRS cd's look like ass. give me a design or some shit. black or silver discs won't cut it for me.

Great arts in albums is increasingly rare.

I don't think Mental Stamina is all that short.

Ultimate Sacrifice, the dopest song on Kong's album is way too short.

And on Quasimoto's The Unseen Lp-the title track starts out with the dopest beat on the album but midway through the song Quas switches up the fucking beat. The song was short enough but to only hear that beat for half the song...ERRRRR!!!

Actually even worse than Jive's infamously bad artwork is Def American's cd covers in the 90's. THEY WERE ALL THE FUCKING SAME.

I hate great albums that have one blatant commercial attempt somewhere on there that prevents me from leaving it on repeat.

Pretty much all skits suck dick, even if they are funny the same joke isn't time after time but a great song can be listened to over and over

Personally i don't mind dope songs that are short. That is one reason why I enjoy Doom and Cormega. If it is the only good track or best track on the album i see your point though

Oh come on now, Snoop sold out light years before the autotone thing.

Actually, talking over a dope track. There's a song on the Kokaine Kowboyz cd where there's just some pimp from Milwaukee talking over a ridiculously dope beat about bullshit. What point does that serve? Do we really need to hear a pimp talk to two rappers about not paying attention to "demmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm haterzzzzzz"? No, I really fucking don't. Spit please, it's why I bought this cd.

Yeah, I agree. Talking over a dope beat really get's me angry.
