I agree with some of the points you made while you went further than I would with some. Also my viewpoint is going to be different as I haven't followed them for as long as you have. I heard about them a bit throughout last year but only really started listening after Earl and Bastard appeared on end of year lists and already at that time media hype was starting to build. I listened a bit the early part of the year and then Yonkers came out and I'll admit that really made me interested. And also made me focus on Tyler more than the rest of the group. It wasn't until a bit later I gave the Earl album the attention it deserves and it became my favourite. Reaction to Goblin is definitely suffering from being judged against a tougher criteria than other OF releases. Suddenly potential is no longer enough for most people. It sounds as if I like Goblin more than you on the whole though. She, Tron Cat, Fish, Analog and Golden as well as Yonkers and Sandwiches as you mentioned are great tracks to me. I'd also disagree about Hodgy. I like his verses for the most part. Although I wish his delivery on record matched how great it was on the Fallon performance. I'd rate him above Domo. Although I admit that there is a lot i haven't heard or heard enough of both. The lyrics are a little tiresome. The amount written about them even more so. All I'll really say is that they don't bother me that much but yes I would like him to change to some different subject matter. The same goes for Earl. I'd like to think his seclusion period may lead him to taking a different approach with his lyrics in the future. As for being annoyed by their growing presence in the mainstream. They have music worth listening to and more people listening to it is a cool thing to me. Whether Yonkers has been out for 1 day, 6 months or 2 years. Granted that it is acceptable to want to punch anyone whose reaction the their OF discovery is to OF is to declare that Hip Hop has been saved, in the face.
