Er, this might be awkward but you got third.

I think you got confused because I accidentally posted the reveals for 3rd and 2nd in the same post. I ninja-edited it but it appears that you were quicker than me.

not confused!

i don't think it's polite for me to comment on a host's opinion of my own songs, generally speaking. to break practice for a moment, i think yours was excellent. thanks for the lengthy comments!

I think I'm supposed to do my reveal tomorrow afternoon.

I could do it right now, but probably not much point if a lot of people don't even have songs to listen to, yet.

& maybe some more listens will change a couple little things in the middle...

Sooner the better imo.

edit: but if you think you need more time to feel comfortable with the rankings, then don't rush

I'm comfortable, & I wouldn't be rushing, but not sure if tchaz has a particular plan for the pacing that I would be messing up.

did Viktor Lvovich show up?

no imagination that guy - could have been an ex-champion

as it is he's the, what?, fourth strongest Soviet non-champion and became Swiss. Swiss. ?? even Spassky had enough sense to become French

Weird thing that I feel compelled to share: when I saw this song's title, I immediately guessed it was about mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. I obviously still googled the lyrics and found how hilariously wrong I was.

Anyway, this submission has an enormous problem; it is basically unlistenable. I think the music should be good. I think I like the singer's voice. But I cannot be sure, because the quality is just that bad.

If you do not understand what I am talking about, look at this studio version I found. It is awesome. The difference is simply staggering, and it would have been heavily reflected in the ranking.
eff it.

tchaz didn't have any actual access to youtube - for raisens - all the links were ripped from google search without listening to them

Viktor really appreciated the studio version, though! Don't listen to UD. He understands nothing.

Alright, let's do this...

Category: RAP

Similarly to UD, I was mostly disappointed & not much really resonated with me. I have 9 songs to judge, & so judge them I did. I did not enter my own category, but I would have finished at least 2nd, probably 1st. So you guys should consider yourselves lucky.

In 9th place scoring 2 points:

This definitely isn't for me. There are bits & pieces that if strung together could form something palatable, but they are too few & far between.

Spoiler:
Walrein - The Avalanches - Frankie Sinatra

I don't find this pleasant. There's an element to it that's almost D12-like, but it's the best element of this, & the worst element of D12, so it's not really enough to counteract the things I find actively bad. Odd chanting & polka music isn't really what I look for in rap music (or any music).

In 8th place scoring 3 points:

Too slow to start, too many noises I don't like, too much weird droney buzzing & chanting of some sort.

Spoiler:
soma84 - Jidenna - Chief Don't Run

Live trip report: 70 seconds in nothing has happened yet & I'm super nonplussed by whatever is going on. The rapping is…ok…the chorus is not ok. Did someone over-autotune a dijuridu? Accidental next song listen: Long Live the Chief is much better.

In 7th place scoring 4 points:

Kind of talky, somewhat discordant beat, doesn't really resonate.

Spoiler:
fnord_too - Funky DL - Judas

This seems more like an early 90s type song. It's the kind of music I didn't really love back then, & still don't love today. Just some non-impactful talking with a mediocre beat with discordant elements that I find off-putting. The more I listen to this the less I like it. It ungrows on me.

In 6th place scoring 5 points:

Kind of interesting. Kind of Rage'ish, which I don't really think of as rap, but has some interesting elements.

Spoiler:
KarmaDope - Stuck Mojo - Destroyer

I kind of like how hard this goes in places, but it's basically just metal masquerading as rap as far as I'm concerned. As such, it comes across a little repetitive. It starts off a bit like a poor man's Run DMC, then goes into a couple different levels of chorus. This is another song that seems less than contemporary.

that seems pretty accurate all round - including Long Live...

slow down a little so we can listen before the next reveal?

In 5th place scoring 6 points:

Lots of words, seemingly thrown together at random at times. Not the strongest beat.

Spoiler:
Adam33 - Aesop Rock - Dorks

I like how the song starts right away & it seems to have some promise, but I just get the feeling that this guy thinks he is way smarter than he is the way he throws words and metaphors around seemingly at random. I read the lyrics along with listening to the song the 2nd time, & I still don't really know what it's about, & it's not because I don't know what the individual words/concepts mean. It's ok, just not really my thing.

Sorry. Trying to get this knocked out in the next 23 minutes. Can slow down a bit.

In 4th place scoring 7 points:

A little talky, a little bland, a little unmemorable. It's fine-ish. I can't really say anything too enthusiastic about it.

Spoiler:
Zaccino - ScHoolboy Q - Groovy Tony

I kind of like "That Part", but this doesn't quite have the same catchiness to me. I don't find the flow particularly compelling, nor the beat, nor the message. It's all ~ok, but not something I would ever seek out again. The chorus is kind of non-conventional, but not entirely uncatchy.
