Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I’m going thru my Cash Money Catalog and started off with Juvie.

Right now, I’d go That G Code > 400 Degreez > Soulja Rags. Production on all of em are [emoji91][emoji91]

I’m on Lil Wayne(pause)now and starting off with The Block is Hot.

I had never realized until the beat battles and people started talking about what he did how much of the production Manny Fresh was doing for them back in the day. I knew he had done some but didn’t realize he had the label on his back like he did.

Ended up watching the Seen a Man Die music video, and it sounded different so I deleted The Diary and redownloaded it and it sounds much better now, he was too quiet before, like listening to it underwater. Got through it, it’s pretty good but not like Enter the Wu-Tang/RD level to me. I’ll go forward with The Fix at least though. Production wise, kinda reminds me of Outkast’s first album.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

My ear has been all over the place, I’ll go from Never Change to Bill Withers to Miles Davis to Polo G to Coltrane and somehow always end up listening to Mortal Man at the end. 4 days marks 3 years since Damn....

Another Curren$y EP, I want to say his 3rd release of the year. One of the other ones with DJ Fresh has all the instrumentals on it, Curren$y beats are like Egyptian cotton sheets. Ended up downloading a bunch of beat tapes, Madlib, Oddissee, Dilla, Nujabes, so plenty to go through there.

First listen of New Toronto 3 everything sounded good, need to listen again to see what stands out but Tory’s done it again, word to JODYE.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

WSG needs to put out instrumental versions of all of his tapes for the culture.

On the other hand, Berg should be arrested for putting his tag on this, some 16 year old probably thinks he came up with this lol.

Fred Tha Godson died this week. He was part of i think XXL's best freshman class ever with Mac Miller.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Yo, Akademiks just changed my whole mind about Drake and him. I watched him watch Drake's listening party livestream. Yadda yadda yadda Drake the GOAT and AK that dude.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Ak is the worst lol. I just downloaded a Leak tape from Drake a couple weeks ago and it seems like most of these songs were on it. Rollin leaked like 2 weeks ago, now it’s Deep Pockets, the first track. I’ll have to scan it to see if there’s anything new.

For any Griselda/Roc Marciano/East Coast drug rap fans, Roc produced Stove God Cooks album, Reasonable Drought and its awesome. “They still on us about that 400 thousand hid in my mama basement, face it, FEDS GAVE US A POP QUIZ AND WE ACED IT”.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Anybody else digging the new Thundercat? I know we've talked about him a little bit before, but couldn't remember who all listened to his stuff.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

“Sosa, Fivey, looking like KD and Kyrie
My TD Bank is on what?! My TD Bank is on Kylie”

If Demons is really a Kingdom Hearts sample we might have a new hardest video game sample beat of the year. Drake is unstoppable. [emoji23]

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I highly recommend checking out Kota The Friend's projects. You can't go wrong wherever you start with his work

[DieHardYankee26]

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I'd seen his name before but hadn't followed him to listen to them, his new song with Joey and Bas is great. I actually thought it was Kota the Fiend for the longest.

That track is begging for Pop Smoke tho.

I’m seeing that a lot, I can’t hear it. Beat reminds me more of Big Drip than any of Pop’s stuff. It would’ve been great if he was on it and flowed like he did on Flexin, my biggest issue is the pausing Fivio/Sosa do in their flows. I just can’t believe Drake is making elite drill. Even threw in “Loved her way back when, drunk so I type Je taime but don’t hit send” so we know it’s still Drake. It’s just wild to be listening to this **** for a year and then Drake is like oh yeah I’ll try it and it’s dope. There’s an AI going around that can rap random **** with Jay-ax’s voice, and that’s cool, but Drake is ****ing Kirby. I’ve cut off Fivio and Sosa so it’s just Drake and I’m pretty sure it’ll pass Life is Good for my most played song by the end of the week.

Reasonable Drought though...this might be my AOTY so far. I didn’t think anything would dethrone the Griselda guys going back to back to back and ending your album with a tap dancing solo, but Rolls Royce Break Lights, John $tarks, Cocaine Cologne. Crosses is probably SOTY.

I finally listened to Thundercat’s album. I really **** with the instrumentals, but the vocals are hit and miss for me. I love the Ty Dolla song, as surprising as it is to see the Based God on a song in 2020.
