^^^^ Did not like. Sounded like noise pollution to me.

You post a lot of awesomeness but that one missed imo.

Really? I like Jay Elect and love his lyricism. I personally thought that was a good track, but fair enough.

All good BnG, we all have different tastes, no offense intended.

Others may have loved it but that "beat" if you can call it that really put me off. Nothing wrong with his flow that's for sure.

J. Cole's latest mixtape was decent but I wasn't amazed or blown away by it really. It gets a 7.5 from me but that's moreso because there wasn't really a track that stuck out to me like there were on The Warm Up.

Second go around is always better than the first go around and I don't know why I keep forgetting that lol.

But yeah, mixtape is actually better then decent and so far my favorite tracks are In The Morning, Too Deep For The Intro, Before I'm Gone, Enchanted, Farewell, and Home for the Holidays.

So this gets elevated to the 2nd best mixtape of the year behind Trap or Die II and gets a bump in score from me from 7.5 to 8.3.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I gotta say this Kanye is one of the BEST albums I've ever heard. Its a certified classic, IMO. It might be actually better than College Dropout, and thats in my top 5 albums. I'm thoroughly impressed.

I can't believe Nicki Minaj hasn't leaked yet considering she drops on Black Friday.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Not gonna lie, I'm down to listen to Nicki's album but I'm not scouring the interwebz for it haha.

Anyone else hear the new Dre track? Not good....

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Man let's be realistic: I think it's safe to say that we ALL have some artists on our Computer/Ipod that you KNOW you can't stand but will still listen to their music for whatever reason

Hell, I ain't gon' lie; I got some Gucci Mane, Plies, Lil Wayne, Drake stuff on my Computer/Ipod that I listen to(although alot of their stuff are on the mixtapes I usually download)and I'm sure I got other artists that I can't stand on there as well.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Is Nicky Manage that chick on the Kanye Album rapping about Willy Wanka and being from Sri Lanka etc? Do not want......

Yeah we've all got our ipod demons Pack.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I'm not going to lie... I have a little crush on Nicki. I've only heard her on Drake's album and on the new Kanye, but that was enough to pique my interest. I like the way she's marketed herself. She's weird as hell in a Charles Hamilton/Kid CuDi sort of way, and despite having sex appeal she is not a Lil' Kim/Foxy Brown/Trina/etc. clone. She has my interest and yes, I freely admit it with no shame. I may not like the album, but based on what I've heard, I think I will. I hate Lil' Wayne and Drake is "meh" (save for some good production), so Nicki may be the only one of YM that I become a "fan" of.

I thought she had the best verse on that track... maybe not lyrically, but the way she was switching up her flow and the beat was switching with her as all her "personalities" came out was nice. She definitely killed that track and is one of the reason's I'm checking for her.

Minaj saved that "Monster" track.
