something i've always payed attention to is the opening lines of albums and how they define the entire album. my favourite albums do this.
what are some of yall's favourite examples of this? see some of my favs below
"i seem to sink lower, gazing in the rays of the solar" - the ooz
"yeezy season approaching, f*** whatever ya'll been hearing" - yeezus
"never too much" - whole lotta red
goddamn, it's a brand new payback
from the straight gangsta mack in straight gangsta black
"Allow me to introduce first: Makaveli The Don,
hysterical, spiritual lyrics like The Holy Qur'an"
please dont worry let me
aye run inside ya s*** i need an ESPY
I'm a street-walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm, I'm a runaway son of the nuclear A-bomb - The Stooges, Raw Power
You don't know what's in store, but you know what you're here for - The Weeknd, House of Balloons
all of this disorder, no addressing, The crown is broken in pieces, but theres more in my possesion

this makes me proud to be british
im a hot and bothered astronaut crashing while jacking off to bufferin vids of asher roth eating apple sauce
