Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

This all reminded me that I still haven't even listened to The Gifted.

I didn't even know that he put an album out this year.

This is old and I know this is Lil Will's song but this version with Souja Boy is actually pretty good. Never thought I would say Souja Boy is actually pretty good

Lol, I thought that was your favorite rapper. Dude got heated real quick though, like Kanye did with Sway. Almost made me think it was some kind of stunt.

Can't embed from Complex but here's the link to the audio.

Lol I still a fan of his, just not as big as I used to be. Still haven't listened to the Gifted voluntarily and don't know if I will.

Ever since he went this MMG route, his poems....I mean songs have gotten worse and worse. I'm not even all that surprised because I almost expect it from any artist who goes from underground to mainstream.

I like the concept of throwing back to some of his old videos. Em must have some kind of anti-aging thing going on because it's crazy how he looks almost exactly the same as he did in videos that are 10+ years old.

Also, hi, Rihanna.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Agreed. It was bad to the point that on one hand I was like he shouldn't even care. On the other I get his beef though.

OAN I know there ain't too many of us Gambino fans here but y'all should check "because the internet" out. Real solid, especially the first half or so.

This, 100%. The first like 9 songs are magic, Telegraph Ave. is one of my favorite songs this year. And Worst Guys is awesome as well. Wish Chance had a verse, but I like Gambino on it and the vibe of the song overall.

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Blue Scholars were probably the most popular Seattle based group in my group of friends in high school.

The difference between Macklemore and Blue Scholars is that Macklemore is just more well known. Percentage-wise, Blue Scholars are more loved than Macklemore in Seattle, it's just that there are more people who have heard of him compared to the Blue Scholars.

But the Blue Scholars have definitely paved the way for acts like Macklemore, he evens says so.

Sabzi is a unbelievable producer (as evidenced by his work both with Blue Scholars and Common Market). And Geo's chemistry with him is perfect.

Man, I wish I could have been there for this performance (the beginning of the video is wow):

The Lox have been dormant as a group since 2014′s We Are The Streets

Are they time travelers?

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I'm still so confused by Yeezus getting so much respect. That **** was the worst rap album I've heard in years
