popular music should have movements again whatever happened to the twelve minute song

sufjan is so great at this—think the five distinct movements that make up the twenty-five minute opus Impossible Soul—opening up the idea that movements make transposition possible? like, the fourth movement of Impossible Soul showing up in the album release of Joy to the World ends up so meaningful, because "boy, we can do much more together!" ends up carrying a different meaning

but I wonder whether some of the best modern movement work remains on hiphop tracks with multiple rappers. like just in Enter the 36th Chambers, yeah? who needs twenty five or even twelve minutes when you can have short and sweet verses hit you with an entire transition in style within twenty-four seconds
