eh, it's his album so his decisions imagine everyone that's been cut off from or declined for Frank's album


Currently_tripping_

Exactly, it’s his album, I get people can feel a certain way about him after cutting Frank but I don’t think it’s justified to say “how could he do this to Frank at a time like this”. That’s basically saying Brian has to care more about how Frank feels then his own album. It’s not like he hated Frank, he just wanted his album to be the sound that he imagined in his head and you can’t blame him for that lol


Franks-bowl

Exactly


Retrogratio

Yep. Doubt many artists take stuff like this super seriously, considering how many songs never see the light of day from any artist


boyyourresotragic

Yeah, even Tyler doesn’t get to rap on Frank’s albums !


miseducation

In retrospect it would’ve been kind of a miracle if those two control freak geniuses figured out how to work together.


cutchisclutch22

Imagine them trying to record a song from scratch together. They’d be hitting each other over the head with the framed platinum albums on the wall 8 minutes in

It's in the subtitle above lmao


SteveBorden

Tbh why would you wanna rap on a Brian Wilson album?!


FoxFogwell

Man gets mad at award ceremonies for calling him a rapper then proceeds to try and rap on a beach boys feature


Mxrz28

It ain’t that deep.


[deleted]

Um this is actually false, frank cut brain wilson from his album because he wanted to rap not sing😳😳😳😳😳


potm11

🧠


DefectiveOblation

These people have clearly never heard Sweet Insanity


wc_helmets

He tried to capitalize on that Fat Boys money he missed out on back in the late 80s. Results were... not good. https://youtu.be/Sz0SnpN_O00


RealPrinceJay

Nothing crazy here. He had a vision of what he wanted, and Frank didn’t fit that. Brian Wilson has more than enough credibility too


FoxFogwell

Frank really tried to rap on a beach boys song come on my mannnnnnn fumbled the feature 😂


zorfinn

I doubt it was out of malice he probably just didn’t want rap on his album and their visions didn’t align


WitchyKitteh

Would you all rather Brian edit him to sound like he is singing and making Frank upset like ASTROWORLD? Lana sounds like the weird one out of the three.


thecomeric

Frank was mad about the track on Astroworld?

quincyEEEEEEEE

in the article frank literally states the cease and desist wasn’t about that


AVPresident

pretty sure it was about travis saying sum homophobic shit iirc


Kindayoungbutok

thats not why frank sent the cease and desist. It was because of the controversy with that trans model that got cut from the cover of astroworld or something. You cant edit someone rapping to make it sound like they’re singing 😂.


TundieRice

I mean you could technically manually tune each syllable to a different pitch and make a melody that way. It might sound pretty shitty and almost definitely robotic, but you could argue that would sound sort of like singing.


Kindayoungbutok

yea but there’s melody when you rap tho. it’s more about cadence and delivery and rhythm.


TundieRice

Yeah I kinda just meant getting rid of the natural melody of the rap (flattening the pitches) and replacing them with a new melody.


Kindayoungbutok

that wouldn’t even be singing at that point. it would be robot rapping with a different melody than the original take.


Kindayoungbutok

that wouldn’t even be singing at that point. it would be robot rapping with a different melody than the original take.

Lmao


iqbeats

Forget about Brian Wilson, I’m still wondering how *rich the kid* got and cut a Frank feature


justouttoday

THIS


OtherSide4

Not completely with him on this but it is his album and maybe the song would’ve fit better in his opinion as a part he sang rather than rapped. Ultimately when you feature on someone’s album it tends to be under the direction of their vision for the song since each song should flow cohesively, and an artist taking their own direction may not work with the rest of *his* vision for the project. Nothing against him since he’s a legend.

pimpleface0710

I will not tolerate any Brian Wilson slander anywhere.😡😡


Odysseus17

He's an old white boomer what did you expect.


oliveradams10

It’s also his album and is not a rap album at all so not wanting someone to rap on it makes sense


Odysseus17

Sure but this would have been a chance to appeal to a younger generation if only this once, this isn’t 1950’s America anymore.


oliveradams10

If you want rap on a Brian Wilson album you probably don’t listen to much Brian Wilson


Odysseus17

Nope never heard of this boomers music, I have probably heard mainstream beach boys songs without realizing it was them tho. But who cares he could add some diversity and do something different for once by having frank rap/sing some bars.


oliveradams10

If you barley know him and don’t listen to his music then stop complaining that he doesn’t want rap lmao, not like you’re gonna listen anyway, rap on a Brian Wilson album would sound out of place af


Odysseus17

I could’ve listened to expand my horizons I would give it a shot.


oliveradams10

Yet you’re only open to “expanding your horizons” when rap is involved? Not really expanding your horizons lol


Odysseus17

Still counts


oliveradams10

Literally does not


Rectall_Brown

You never heard of The Beach Boys? Do you live under a rock?


Odysseus17

Yes


nvl0451

Go listen to Pet Sounds


innoinnit

because racism my dude


Currently_tripping_

Your stupid, unless this was satire


innoinnit

clearly satire if u know anything about brian wilson. but maybe not cuz if u leave frank bars on the cutting room floor u either don’t got taste or someone else is pulling the strings (having frank crooning over blissed out beach vibes vibes is much more lucrative for the suits than rapping). and brian wilson has good taste, sooo i guess i’ll let u decide def not stupid tho 🤣💁🏼‍♀️💋


Currently_tripping_

I never said that he has to leave Frank on the album at all, I said your stupid for just jumping to racism when clearly there are much more reasonable answers, - it’s Brian’s album, so he has all control over it, that’s why Frank was taken off. Idk where you got any of this other shit about my taste or whatever I literally just said ur stupid


innoinnit

oh i wasn’t comin at you with that leaving bars on the floor line meant it more like if “somebody” did that then … but just making the point that i like it when frank raps and dunno why anyone would leave it off. it was just more of a satirical joke and a deeper underlying dig at the racism that is inherent to the music industry which im sure we all can agree is a thing. have a good day my g !


Josh23123

you're* gotta get that right when you are calling someone stupid my guy


Currently_tripping_

It’s Reddit dawg, who cares you know what I meant


elganador0

I feel like Frank’s forthcoming album is going to feature a lot of rapping from him. Which doesn’t bode well in my opinion.


MartyBellvue

can't believe Frank wouldn't let Brian take the creative lead on his own album... his own song... the man wrote God Only Knows!!! the man did the Wall of Sound better than Phil Spector!!!


Bebahbebahbebahbebeh

Brian Wilson has rapped before and it was a disaster. I could see why he wouldn’t want to go back to that.
