2025 Self-Titled Song Battle #1

[indigo torrent]

I'm sorry you feel that way, you don't have to do that if you don't want to

[near hinge]

What I love about tøp is that their music isn’t stereo typically “good” but they don’t care and keep coming out with it.

[distant swan]

Music isn’t objective, music theory is basically math and music is about feeling not facts

[wind badge]

Okay the misunderstanding has been fixed because I definitely agree, the things it does weird give it charm, but it clearly isn’t as well dressed and structured as a typical hip hop verse

[clear crescent]

If you’re older than 15 then none of top raps are that hard to rap to ngl

[hardy lotus]

the problem here its not Trying to be rap 💀 it doesnt WANT to obey its standards and usual structures, u cant compare it to actual rapping

[atomic orbit]

math is pretty objective

[somber mist]

I am, and Levitate is still tricky

[sterile lance]

Mfw i have to drive 2 hours to Connecticut because they forgot about Boston

[distant swan]

Exactly

[clear crescent]

Actually yeah that one is an asshole

[limber shuttle]

honestly it’s the less production that keeps me coming back to the older stuff. just can’t get enough

[sterile lance]

They went from doing 2 Boston shows for Clancy to doing 0 for Breach

Wtheck

[somber mist]

I start to lose breath at around chorus verse

[distant swan]

That’s what I’m saying you don’t have to apply the objective things about music to see if a song is good, it’s about how the song feels

[somber mist]

...somebody catch my breath

[atomic orbit]

i'm just saying that it sucks to do that because it seriously does ruin your view of the songs when you do that

[distant swan]

STAWP

[surreal crypt]

i see what u did there

[clear crescent]

I only fuck up Levitate because I mix up the lyrics and I sound like a dr seuss book

[wind badge]

Yes and no, if it’s used to find why a song works well, I love it, but using that power to prove why a song sucks ass just sucks the fun out haha i

[rocky estuary]

Thank goodness they have exactly one ct show (that’s a two ish hour trip)

[atomic orbit]

obviously you're gonna think it's bad when you look at it comparing it to other things

[near hinge]

this is so funny to me because when I was like 14 I could never wrap top songs but like right around when I turned 15 I went to see twenty one pilots in concert and I could do all of it

[somber mist]

I'll be here all night folks 🤣

[atomic orbit]

YEAH

that tracks

[distant swan]

I can rap it at 4x the speed 😎

[surreal crypt]

GoLLY

[distant swan]

I TIMED IT

[flint reef]

yeah no fall out boy is ass because the fifteenth point thirty-seventh chord is quite off by the eighth note

[atomic orbit]

i wish i could do that

[slim garnet]

Johnny boy a 3/10

[somber mist]

I've almost perfected Forest rap

[atomic orbit]

LMAOOO

[slim garnet]

Trapdoor a 10/10

[atomic orbit]

thats how it sounds

[distant swan]

Well I timed it with the intro and outro so it might be a tad slower

[atomic orbit]

hmmm... one eighth rest too long..

[distant swan]

LMFAO

[wind badge]

LEVITATE IS SO FUN TO RAP YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE IS? THE CONTRACT

[somber mist]

YESYEYSYES

[flint reef]

i need spotify lyrics for the contract

[rocky estuary]

but there’s no rapping?

[atomic orbit]

i wish i had 🗣️ in my quick react thing

[somber mist]

Dude I love the "waiit"

[surreal crypt]

my boy

[indigo torrent]

well I do apologise if I've made you feel bad with it; but personally it doesn't ruin my view at all, it makes me appreciate other songs even more

[flint reef]

i will learn to belt and get that scratchy high voice this summer

[indigo torrent]

but anyway I think we're ready to move on from this convo lmho

[atomic orbit]

other songs as in trees with no rapping... does trees have rapping

[rocky estuary]

I just realized

[distant swan]

ME TOO

[indigo torrent]

wut

[wind badge]

As a music theory/commercial music & audio production major this gave me a migraine

[indigo torrent]

does your pain range from up down and sideways

[atomic orbit]

are you just a tyler rapping hater or do you just not like the specific songs

[somber mist]

I LOVE WHEN ARTISTS DO THOSE ELEMENTS
It makes you feel like you get pulled in

[atomic orbit]

i'm confused............

[wind badge]

yes, but thank GOD it’s Friday

[distant swan]

ME TOO

[atomic orbit]

man that burp caused me pain

[flint reef]

i want a j*b

[somber mist]

It's Saturday actually!

SLOW DOWN-

[surreal crypt]

actually its SATURDAY SATURDAY SATURDAY

[atomic orbit]

me too 🥀

[somber mist]

HAHAHAAHA

[sterile lance]

Thank you for censoring

[last oak]

damn beat me to it

[indigo torrent]

neither, I just don't like specific rap verses. I like almost every song they've put out, but when it has a bad verse I'm not going to pretend it doesn't

[rocky estuary]

Incredible work here

[flint reef]

you're welcome

[distant swan]

||empl*yment||

[indigo torrent]

also post BF he improved SIGNIFICANTLY in his rapping ability, it's really from ST to BF that I don't like his rap verses

[flint reef]

im so terrified something's gna go down 40 minutes north of me in DC during our emperor's birthday bash

[hardy lotus]

also it means they're studying from a Source... and that will absolutely have some sort of bias, i think a textbook that tells you "yeah this melody is good" is completely fucking bullshit, literally just subjectivity passed as objectivity, i think music theory can help u make a decent melody but it does NOT have all the answers

(no need to try to prove me wrong btw i dont care )

[atomic orbit]

EXACTLY BRO

[ebon merlin]

Ngl I agree

[somber mist]

Air Catcher 😣

[wind badge]

Please tell me you enjoy the contract’s rap cause it’s so so satisfying to listen to IDCCCC if it’s technically sound or not

[somber mist]

I love that song...

[distant swan]

I love air catcher

Especially the alt version

[flint reef]

the contract is ear candy

[atomic orbit]

so good

[ebon merlin]

Yes

[flint reef]

i need someone who is knowledgable in FLstudio to mix it with headlock because i can feel those two songs working SO WELL TGT

[somber mist]

I love that one video of "Tyler flies away" where it does the "in love with falling - then we fall -" etcetc

[distant swan]

Tyler screaming in songs >>>>

[distant swan]

Wait now I want to do that

[wind badge]

IT IS I HAVE NEVER STIMMED HARDER TO A SONG I DONT THINK PPL UNDERSTAND HOW GOOD IT SOUNDS

[distant swan]

ME FR

I WAS LIKE

BSHFJDNHDKSNJSK

[somber mist]

YOU GET ME!!!!

[atomic orbit]

me when midwest indigo

[surreal crypt]

its a good song, but hear me out, i just dont believe the hype...

[distant swan]

Me when Sai

And Clancy

[last oak]

felt

[flint reef]

vignette high notes too 😍

[distant swan]

And trench

And bf

And veasel

[surreal crypt]

VIGNETTE MENTION THAT SONG IS PEAK

[distant swan]

And rab

[somber mist]

I do the head roll thing that it looks like he's doing in one of those parts in The Contract

[distant swan]

And st

[flint reef]

i love high notes so much

SO SAD I MISSED PIERCE THE VEIL

[distant swan]

And npi

[flint reef]

BUT THAT MEANS I HAVE MONEY TO SEE BREACH TOUR 20 MINUTES AWAY IN BRISTOW

[ebon merlin]

Weasel or Veal

[distant swan]

Vignette is me as a song bro

[wind badge]

I’m a trench lover through and through cause the production is so so solid and has depth and that’s the only thing I didn’t like about Clancy was the songs were more flat than I wanted BUT THE CONTRACT IS BRINGING BACK THAT THREE DIMENSIONAL PRODUCTION I MISSED SO BADLY

[distant swan]

BESSEL

VESSYL

VESSEL

[somber mist]

NO WAY I WAS LOOKING AT BRISTOW FOR ONE OF THE LOCATIONS

[distant swan]

First try

[somber mist]

I'm going to either Bristow or Hershey

[distant swan]

I’m going to Hershey

[last oak]

good job

[ebon merlin]

I have to go to fucking Toronto (🤮) to watch them this year

[distant swan]

That’s my fuckin line

[wind badge]

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD DM ME I NEED A BRISTOW GC RIGHT NEOWWWWW

[somber mist]

The issue is Hershey is more preferable, but it's going to be the day before another concert I'm going to

[flint reef]

where i go depends on what happens at the birthday bash in DC cause if things blow up then yeah no we are staying as far away from DC as we can

[indigo torrent]

yeah he hasn't missed with a rap verse since BF era

[distant swan]

I have a Pennsylvania+dmv server if anyone is in that area and wants to be added

[surreal crypt]

I'm going to Cincy 😎

[limber shuttle]

[dense plover]

The correct answer!

[distant swan]

The right one yes

Wait

[surreal crypt]

[somber mist]

I think.. both songs have their qualities

[dense plover]

I did!

[distant swan]

The right one is NOT the right one

[somber mist]

...oh right it's blatant not bleeding

[distant swan]

I thought it was blatant

But so many people said it was bleeding

[dense plover]

I also thought that for a while

[somber mist]

What can I say, I just voted from the heart

[distant swan]

Pffff

[somber mist]

(New reaction image dropped)

[distant swan]

I love that

[last oak]

[somber mist]

[dense plover]

[distant swan]

Fr

[hollow current]

[unreal jackal]

I still haven’t voted they are both so beautiful

[distant swan]

Real

[somber mist]

Every TØP song is beautiful: and I know this is a hot take, don't flame me, unless it's with the flames you feel in the pit during Clancy or Breach tour.....

[distant swan]

I agree

Feel your hair get singed

[somber mist]

YEAHH

[distant swan]

Guys the US might not get their tour

If things keep going the way they do

The whole birthday parade will not go smoothly at all

[olive minnow]

If trapdoor has million fans i am one of them . if trapdoor has ten fans i am one of them. if trapdoor has one fan that is me. if trapdoor has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth. if world is against trapdoor i am against the world

[distant swan]

https://tenor.com/view/nao-no-starwars-darth-vader-gif-7192124

[olive minnow]

what does this have to do with trapdoor vs johnny boy

[distant swan]

We were talking about the news earlier

[olive minnow]

the news is that trapdoor is going to sweep this round

[distant swan]

True

[olive minnow]

johnny boy is underrated

the man is QUALIFIED to fix a chair and love hsi wife

[rocky estuary]

johnny boy is great

but trapdoor is

[distant swan]

I love Johnny boy bro

[rocky estuary]

incredible

[distant swan]

But trapdoor

[dense plover]

Yessssss

[rocky estuary]

trapdoor man

[dense plover]

All of TOP's songs are goated af

[ebon merlin]

What if he doesn't renew the contract

[olive minnow]

johnny boy is great but it doesn't make me hit the persona 5 joker pose while i listen to it

he DOESNT HAVE A CONTRACT

promise =/= a contract

[distant swan]

Fr

[olive minnow]

what he says in the song is "I promised you a contract" a promise is not a legally binding agreement under the court of law

[distant swan]

It’s soul binding

[ebon merlin]

But he's pleading to take the deal which might mean he's under NDA or a binding contract

[dense plover]

An NDA with Billie Eilish??

[distant swan]

Pffff

[ebon merlin]

What

[dense plover]

🤔

[dense plover]

I dunno

[ebon merlin]

This is confusing me

[dense plover]

Billie Eilish has a song called NDA

[somber mist]

NDAs for the folks that talk to me

So tell your friends to follow Bots Anonymous

Can't wait for that to be a prevalent thing in an upcoming ARG

Keep it cool

[dense plover]

Yessssss

[civic harness]

Trapdoorrrr

[vocal yew]

Ngl I was really confused why Trapdoor was winning so hard, then I remembered that I always mix up the names of these 2 songs 😅

[civic urchin]

trapdoor SOLOS

[gilded crag]

Trapdoor wins this album easily

[ebon merlin]

Oh cool

[dense plover]

Yeee

[worldly bluff]

sorry johnny boy

[buoyant grotto]

Wait why is this so difficult

(joking I'm obsessed with trapdoor)

[stone pendant]

I barely know self-titled songs but I guess trapdoor

[shy marlin]

Eeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzz

[wheat moth]

Easily Trapdoor

[alpine nova]

Trapdoor Wipes fr

[lucid crane]

This is so hard😨😨😰

[safe olive]

johnny boy being first song voted out is tragic 😭

but anyways trapsweep trapsweep

[opal bronze]

I'm smelling addict with a pen vs trapdoor final

[untold aurora]

My poor Johnny Boy😭 will not survive seeing one of my fav be voted out first💔💔💔

[torpid drum]

trapdoor!!!!!

[digital solar]

GET UP JOHNNY BOY CAUSE WE ALL NEED YOU NOWWWQ

[vernal phoenix]

Trapdoor all the way

[north flint]

I love them both but trapdoor just has such a banger intro and message. Plus THAT SCREAM on "And finish this waste of a life" always gets me floating in the middle of the room

[clear crescent]

alright I wouldn’t go that far…

[olive minnow]

Trapdoor or air catcher

[clear crescent]

You’re forgetting someone

[clear crescent]

My baby girl

[upbeat atlas]

Air catcher ❤️‍🩹

[halcyon torrent]

air catcher is great
don’t make me choose…

[misty ingot]

JOHNNY BOY YEAAAAA🦅 🦅 🦅 🦅

[stray leaf]

Just listened to both for the first time

They’re both pretty good

[olive minnow]

no i meant what i said

ive realized air catcher and trapdoor are peak and two of the best songs in their discography

[vast solar]

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby oh no

and i love johnny boy but no way is it winning this 😭

[unkempt merlin]

GET UP JOHNNY BOYYYYYY

[ionic mica]

this seems obvious

[mellow surge]

Gotta day trapdoor

[strange tendon]

Trapdoor is just too good

[torn anchor]

Johnny boy please win this

[craggy badge]

[pastel elbow]

It won’t

[tulip sage]

trapdoor sweep ong fr

[slim glacier]

Trapdoor is my 10000th scrobble on the fm bot, it's gonna win [real and true]

[grand rose]

Dude Johnny Boy just has something in it that just makes it better. Not by much but still

[quartz lake]

i don't love either of these, but i just can't get into johnny boy

so it's sort of process of elimination for me

[tacit venture]

Johnny Boy comes into my head every now and then, but Trapdoor is always in my head

Trapdoor is top 15 Pilots song 100%

[craggy badge]

TRAPDOOR MY BELOVED

BUT it makes me sad because when I hear Johnny Boy I think of my dad

[stuck heart]

Okay but Johnny boy is catchier

Trapdoor is amazing tho

[errant spade]

I say Johnny boy, love trapdoor, but I think Johnny boy is a lot more recognizable and catchy imo

[atomic orbit]

this ong

top 2 imo

[queen sky]

Get up Johnny boyyyyyyy

[solid nest]

This is already hard for me i cant choose😭😂

[craggy badge]
