Rap-Up.com || Adele Calls Odd Future ‘Refreshing’

Odd Future has won the hearts of their rap peers including Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, and Diddy, but they also have one unlikely fan in Adele.

“They’re refreshing,” the U.K. songbird tells Rolling Stone. But her fans don’t seem to agree. After posting the controversial video for frontman Tyler, the Creator’s “Yonkers” on her blog, they spoke out. “My fans weren’t happy.”

Adele, whose voice Beyoncé likened to the Almighty, also shared Lil’ Kim’s reaction when she heard the “Rolling in the Deep” singer bust a rap. “She said I was nasty!” exclaimed the thrilled Brit.

Adele’s endorsement of OFWGKTA is the latest feather in the hip-hop collective’s cap. They recently performed with Pharrell at Coachella and Tyler is prepping the release of his solo album Goblin for May 10.

@ME, you’re so full of shit. odd future is not part of the masons. they’re just talented kids who made it and and jealous retards like you want to attribute it to some cult because you refuse to accept the fact that they’re just more talented and work harder than you.

golf wang and adele rule.

@roro, the word ‘talented’ is highly debatable.

@Spill

I feel you. I mean I don’t even get a pull to want to listen to them. I usually give a great deal of artists (a title that is also quite debatable in their regard) a chance. We’ll see. Maybe I just don’t get it yet.

A lot of people seem to just write them off as wack even though they haven’t listened to them, that makes sense!

Anyway, Odd Future is definitely better than any of the crap on the radio nowadays, plus while everyone on here talks shit, they’ve played Coachella and shows in London. What are the rest of you haters doing with your lives?

all the wold haters can suck a fat one. odfwgkta is saving rap, they are the new wu-tang. adele is bring soul r&b back to life. they go hand in hand despite their different style, lyrics and so forth.
