  I always instinctivly think swag means a load of shit, it only sounds like a good thing if said by an american. If an english person says it swag sounds like a diss haha
  
  Can't beat the energy of these guys they're a load of fun.

Like whoa.

Holy hell that was entertaining. I had that feeling like WHAT ON EARTH ARE THEY GONNA DO the whole time (and throughout the day tbh).

Pretty hard not to be enjoying this wave right now, consider me on board after a couple few months of skepticism.

  The Roots, Fallon and Mos Def all earned some extra swag bucks here.

Genuinely the most exciting thing to happen to music in years

I hope Hodgy gets a bit more recognition off the back of this, but oh my god those guys were born to be on TV.

        Even if you don't like the track the video is incredible.

    first ive bothered actually listening. thought 'oh, theyre being deliberately weird to get attention. this is certainly something we need more of'
    
    kept watching though, and dang it's actually quite good.

      I mean I cottened on to them quite early cos I'm a geek like that and I soon found out they where playing with the shock with pretty diffrently. They're really extream and play up to it but they do it with such energy, humore, intensity and skill that they take it somewhere else. They're like a lady gaga/tony hawks/mf doom collaberation, loads of pop/shock/hip-hop things going on in their tunes lol.

I really enjoyed that

Didn't strike me as OMG WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO NEXT?@?@ as it seemed to Pitchfork, but was certainly fun.

Being good on Tv is pretty much impossible anyhow.

  - According to this: http://oddfuture.tumblr.com/post/3327329544/dont-forget-ofwgkta-will-be-performing-on-the it was Rosie O'Donnell, aka ROSEANNE.
    
    But checking the Fallon website it wasn't a big fat lady from the 90s, it was Felicia Day.
    
    Good performance. I'm not quite FULLY ONBOARD WHOA! Maybe I'm just put off by how young they look.

      Yeah, it's just jealousy. He's running around on TV having a ball, getting hyped, playing with the Roots and hugging Mos Def.

So good

Man, Tyler has a lot of charisma.

They were obviously just gonna go a bit mental rather than try to put on a "great" performance.

RexBanner | 17 Feb '11, 12:29 | X | ^ This | Reply
Pretty good despite the lack of cockaroaches!

I do like pretty much anyone who runs around the TV studio though. Can't believe more people don't do it. The bits where the guests or the audience try their best to appear into it are always gold.

  It's patchy in parts, but it's really beautifully done, and aggressive as fuck. It's up for free on the OFWGKTA site, along with almost all of everything else.

Especially Hody's verse. Also kudos to the roots for making the beat even more hard ass.

I like how the took the swearing out - and didn't lose a hint of menace.

Mos running into the camera at the end going "SWAG! SWAG! SWAG!" pretty much sums up how I feel.

      - I've had this conversation with myself many times over
        
        since my 12 year old self first heard Doggystyle.
        
        These guys are the first group to make that argument resurface in quite some time. I think the Fallon performance showed that they can balance teenage rage with playfulness. I had wondered if there was any humanity in there, but they have been revealing it recently.
        
        Having said that, the rape stuff is unnecessary imo. I feel like they could pull that back without losing any of their identity. It could have just been a ploy to get them on the map though, idk.

        yeah I dont really buy that they could ever do it so it doesn't bother me
        
        I don't even buy they drink or do drugs to be honest they just seem like they're playing at it all. But they do it with so much energy, talent and personality that it all works. Its a fine line they tred but right now they're doing it alright. When they grow pubes it might be more sinister haha

        Rumor is that Earl's parents found out
        
        about all the music, and he was also getting into legal trouble, so they sent him off somewhere like boarding school or military camp.
        
        The legend grows.
