Apollo brown is pretty good
madlib needs to do more jazz shit

Kanye is overrated but not bad
Listening to ODB
Fun as hell, and great background music.
Also Labor Days and The Low End Theory.
Looking forward to The Impossible Kid. Rings was really fucking good.

How was Rocky able to touch his nose with his tongue? Also thought that was pretty amazing feat.
>>63597706
Kek, fuck man that caught me off guard. You can't touch your nose with your tongue?

>>63599031
I'd like to think so
the streets, big narstie, the four owls, jehst
these are all good artists which is kind of the point
>>63599275
JME, Skepta and Stormzy are the best in the grime scene
>>63599314
that was legit upsetting to read.
I'm listening to some Hilltop Hoods while finishing off a Uni assignment. Looking forward to Impossible Kid and Go in april, don't really know anything else coming out this year.
Currently listening to this new blu and Ray west ep which I recommend. Looking forward to Aesop's new album and hopefully get some new material from Danny Brown this year.
Listening to pic related.
I really didn't appreciate Mathematics enough. It's one of the best tracks I've ever listened to in a rap album.

Listening to Koncepts. Good shit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hc45zJdlDv8
I'm listening to Schoolboy Q. I still prefer Habits and Contradictions to Oxymoron, but Oxymoron is still pretty cool.
Just as good as 93 til if you ask me
>>63601427
are you saying blu and aesop rock aren't
>>63601533
They are but a backpacker is someone who listens to rappers like blu and aesop exclusively and say everything else is shit, at least thats what I've always thought it was. Nothing wrong with listening to Blu or Aesop.
>>63601329
I'm also looking forward to that new Drake album, but then I'd be a fag if i put that I can't please everyone.

I'm listening to Northern Lights by Allan Kingdom, not sure how I feel about it so far.
>>63601839
Was it any good?
>>63602377
6/10 on the first listen, good production and lyrics. Definitely worth a listen.
>>63598004
How was it
Don't really feel like listening to no music rn but it's on deck for tonight
>>63601347
fk u NO it wasnt
say what you will but it's decent and the vibes are nice
i heard cozz is better tho
summoning BOOTY with them good links

A$AP Mob is the mainstream pop version of Raider Klan. They took the style, sound, fashion, hieroglyphics and made it accessible to a mainstream audience. The people who laid down the foundation were too abrasive for plebs like yourself.
>>63602660
I thought so too but I've gave blackland radio a couple rotations recently and I go to say I find it more compelling as an overall work. The production and lyricism is superior in my opinion.
For the love of money is still my favorite SGP song tho, I can play that shit endlessly. Have you heard the re-master?
Sup /mu/, I haven't been to this board in a long time. Like 6 years. Nice to see that hip hop is more accepted now than it used to be. Figured I'd swing by to see if you guys could help me out.
Honestly, I just want something engaging and different. A lot of songs/albums seem to sound samey/derivative nowadays to me, and I just want to hear something in which the artist really tried to bring something new to the table. Whether that be flow, beats, or album concept, I'd appreciate whatever comes to your minds. I got a little list here of examples that I think would show you what I'm talking about.
Camp Lo - Coolie High: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fNDrUJwjlE
Awesome Blaxsploitation theme aside, Camp Lo's lyrical delivery on this entire album was definitely different, even from the more varied deliveries we saw in the 90s.
Cannibal Ox - Pigeon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKEg9K0-3Q4
The delivery here is different as well, but the track itself is also sparse, touchy and somewhat minimalistic while still carrying a strong boom-bap inspired beat. Might be a bit more familiar to people with a history with El-P, but it's definitely different.
Get It - clipping: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23KrjwlkOZA
Clipping nabbed my attention by using a ton of instruments and sounds that aren't typical in hip hop to create beats that are easily hip hop but something else, as well.
Ur Turn - Solillaquists of Sound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Q8L_-tPj-g
I fucking love these guys. The aggressive delivery on beats that are chill but driving carries a really good groove. It really reminds me of good fucking spoken word.
Oneirology - Cunninlynguists: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNHPlDgl2cA
One song doesn't really establish what I love about this album, but it really was the first concept album I loved. It's based on dreams and just really captures that whole thing for me.
Killer Tofu - Overdoz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-KnTiCdsfk
I don't even know, man.
I honestly listen to this religiously
>>63598795
get a go pro for yor dick
>>63603357
Check out Pilot Talk By Curren$y, the whole series is produced by Ski Beats, the guy who did uptown saturday night. It's got a really unique vibe to it. Billy Woods is also really good, especially History will absolve me
>>63603357
Welcome back.
I don't know if you're aware of it, but give Memphis Rap a listen, it's probably one of hip hop's most elusive genres, doesn't even have a Wikipedia page. It's mainly dark and sinister production dealing with sinister topics. It's like Memphis elusive brand of what could generally described as horror-core.

>>63603448
nice, just got this on vinyl the other day, been listening to it ever since
Do you ever feel like Pablo?
>>63603448
This is the definition of a tape album. You can listen to it from beginning to end without skipping a single track. Not even my favorite hip hop album can do that.
>>63602766
yea i have
theres actually 2 official remasters
the other one was called NASA Phonk 1996
the pinball sounds alone make it better
Anyone have Anderson Paak - Malibu?
Can't find it on the archive, and that is a bitchin' album by Paak
>>63603448
I do as well
>>63603814
you skip tracks on your favorite hip hop album...
are you fucking retarded??
>>63604199
>implying I'm alone in this
There's always that one track you skip because you can't be arsed listening to it for the 100th time.
I said favorite ALBUM nigga. You sound like the idiot here.
>>63604199
whats wrong with skipping tracks
logic is my shit right now. dude is so talented bro.. under pressure such a good album
>>63604264
I don't skip a track on my favourite album, the reason that it is my favourite is because I love every track, if there was a track I wanted to skip it wouldn't be my favourite album.
>>63604340
>logic
>>63604350
precisely this
>>63604286
I personally don't skip tracks but there isn't really anything wrong with it I guess.
But this dude said he's skipping tracks on his favorite hip hop album. There is absolutely no reason why your FAVORITE album should have skippable tracks. That makes zero sense.
>>63604264
If it's your FAVORITE album, why can't you be 'arsed' to listen to one of the tracks for the 100th time you fucking queer, it's your favorite for a reason
>I said favorite ALBUM nigga
huh?
>>63604350
That's flawed logic. Your classification of whats makes an album someones favorite is entirely personal. There's a plethora of reasons why an album would be someone favorite that isn't exclusive to the likability of every track.
It could be the production, the lyricism, the flow of the mc, the cohesiveness of its execution, the concept, e.t.c. There are notable example of weak tracks in some of the most critically acclaimed albums in music, is that supposed to retract ones enjoyment of it?
You have a narrow view of what makes people enjoy things.
>>63604463
For me personally there a few albums which I find have a perfect tracklist for my taste, I don't dislike a single song. These are my favourite albums because there isn't a single flaw big enough for me to not listen to a track. My point is that most people have an album that has a perfect tracklist for them, as the guy stated originally Illmatic is one of those albums for him.
>>63603448
It's basically a 10/10 album. There isn't a single bad track in there honestly.
shame on you guys for not listening to young thugger even though he just came out with a banger
>>63601482
Habits is a definitely superior to Oxymoron but Oxymoron is still fun to listen to
So, I am pretty new to hip-hop in general, but I really REALLY dig Illmatic and Doe or Die. Recommend similar rappers/albums focused on lyrical/technical prowess and storytelling?
>>63605537
fuck off
BROTHERS FROM THE HOUSING AUTHORITY
who father here
>>63597237
I'm interested in the new Astronautalis and that Serengeti x Yoni Wolf album. The last hip hop thing I was listening to was Better Off Dead. I had no idea they were so good fuck.
>>63599927
The new Hilltop was great. I thought at first the Sia feature was pointless, but it ain't half bad.
>>63600471
Still haven't checked it out yet. I like Ray West's production a lot but never listened to any of Blu's stuff before.
>>63601347
He released Blackland Radio 2 last year. Sucks that he fell off so hard that nobody really cared. Dude needs help.
>>63605875
You could always try the Hamilton soundtrack. Also that Jay Electronica leaked album has some great storytelling on it.

>>63604340
I actually just saw logic live last night. He's talented and has potential but I didn't really enjoy it to be honest
>>63601347
he literally has a song made by another person in this mixtape
>>63608478
Are you disabled? He produced the songs so hes as much a creator of it as the rapper
>>63600732
i wholeheartedly agree
tried to 'cover' this once alone in my bedroom and its actually so hard to do it exactly like mos. love Mathematics.
>>63608554
Please stop demonizing the disabled David Cameron.
Listening to a pretty big Collab track I made that just came together. I'd say it went together pretty well, what do you guys think?
https://soundcloud.com/kingbnjmn/ftl
>>63608406
Oh that's good to hear. It was pretty bad. Its so hard to keep out with his music. I still have to check out the new Domo but I really liked the Keep Working teaser track. It was great.
>>63597237
Listening to the new Elzhi, it's really fuckin good. Haven't been able to stop playing Liquid Swords lately for some reason, really hype for Dark Matter.
>>63598692
>tfw Fishcale is exactly 10 years old tomorrow
I'm an old man dude, I was 16 when that came out. I remember my friend just got his liscense and we were driving around Philly real late playing it with all my friends, and when fuckin RAGU came out everyone got hype as shit. Shit's an almost perfect album.
>>63598795
>>63598941
Nigga what're you doing, put on some D'Angelo.
>>63600471
Oh shit, I gotta listen to this. Also am I the only one who thinks GMMFWICSST is better than Below The Heavens? I love Exile's production regardless, but I think it aged better on Give Me My Flowers.
>>63601347
This shit bumps

This, top 3 albums of the year so far
>>63604340

DAPPER IS SUCH A TRACK!!!
>>63602726
This may be true, but ultimately the ASAP Mob wrote better songs with more consistency. And the ASAP Mob is kind of an offshoot of RK, Spaceghost and Rocky were rommates
Listening to Earl's new song Wind in my sails
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9X7SHrpGROI
Excited for his new album
Also noteworthy I think is that Kendrick llamar put out an album called "untitled unmastered" on which all the songs are untitled. only out it on spotify so you're gonna have to go through that to hear it but this is the first album for me that is what you consider a "tape" album
Thought on new Domo and RJD2?
>>63597606
Listening to return to the 36 chambers right now funnily enough. And yeah The Impossible Kids is gonna be really good, can't wait
anything specific by domo? I dont really listen to him
bumpin that MFC, never gets old
the isaac hayes sample in stand strong always gets to me man
>>63610768
He put a new album out literally a few days ago senpai, I liked Dapper and One Below
>>63602377
Sound like radio music, but it's not bad 5/10
>>63597252
Apollo Brown is fucking cringe-tier shit.
Second most popular song on Spotify starts off with:
>"Archeological logic"
Just with that shit I had to stop it.
Bad taste, anon.
>>63601482
this was disappointing as fuck, only like 2 good songs on it. habits & contradictions was way better. if his next album isn't amazing q's done
is the new flatbush actually good as i've been hearing or are they still DUDE LSD LMAO tryhard shit?
waiting on DOOMSTARKS, shit needs to hurry the fuck up
>>63610921
idk I like the direction oddfuture is going with in general but idk if they've quite hit their pace yet
Listening to bothic right now. It's so fucking weird. It's like if Danny Brown fused with Signor Benedick to make a rap album. Plus the constant dolphin sound bytes adds to it. I don't know what to think.
Kid Cudi was seen in the studio with Kanye West recently and now he releases this
https://soundcloud.com/cudderland/the-frequency
Has Kanye saved hip hop?
>>63612977
that track is really terrible.
>>63613050
It's a step in the right direction for Cudi at least

>>63613311
Shit bangs senpai
>>63613359

I've hung out with them. They're big homie crips and use the third eye shit as a gimmick. Also had a crush on who is now Issa's gf since high school and got cucked. I think they're good but the indigo shit is all people seem to talk about concerning them
>>63616026
So they don't believe in the shit they rap themselves about? Like all about them being elevated and stuff like that are just lies? Damn lol
Been sleeping on this guy since "Because I Felt Like It" dropped. I've been fucking up.

What are some rappers with flows like MF DOOM, Earl Sweatshirt and Captain Murphy/Flylo but also have some sort of melody to them?
>>63602468
Not the guy you replied to but it's more eof the same, wierd beats and monotone father talking about molly and white girls, dope if you're in the mood otherwise just nediocre, father's novelty is gonna wear off soon if he doesn't get a little more experimental.

I'd agree except it's hard to defend raider klan now since Rob Bank$ is a punk ass bitch and YOTS was bad, and Denzel is the only other one still making music. Purpp is a bitch ass mother fucker too

>ASAP Mob wrote better songs with more consistency
My sides. Lords never worry is trash. ASAP Mob are literally hypemen for Rocky with the only exception being ASAP Ferg.
Raider Klan has had far more notable artists. Denzel Curry and Xavier Wulf undisputedly beat anyone in the Mob. The rest of the klan is arguable.
The main argument here is that the Raider Klan is finished like >>63613250 stated, but Lords Never Worry was dropped in 2012 as well so it's safe to assume the same for ASAP Mob.

Also been bumping JMT and listening to Pro Era that isn't Joey. Capital STEEZ is godly. Oh and I came across this album through a random search highly recommended.
>>63620445
damn I'm relistening to it right now and I think I'd bump it up to a special "GOOD-TIER". I still think the verses are super auto-pilot mode, but the hook is great. The beat does like 80% of the work though and I hate when London uses that one synth lead that I've recognized on like 5 of his other songs
>>63613397
any info on him being a plant?
>>63620523
I fucking hate producer callouts. "we got loooondooon on the traaackkkk".
>>63620599
its pretty obvious isnt it?
>>63620687
i really know nothing about him, I saw a review or two and my friends play 1night and talk about how he's the next lil b a lot.
Any 2016 mixtapes I should DL? I need more. My hunger for music is thriving.
>>63620663
Blame Atlanta. Either way producers have always been underrepresented in hip hop. With the rise of trap, particularly in Atlanta, producers are just as if not more infamous than the people who use their beats.
>>63620816
Yeah it definitely seems to be more prominent in trap hip hop. But just because they're under represented doesn't mean they need to plaster their name all over the track. It definitely can ruin it for me if it's too much. Look at a lot of Future projects and they all do that shit "THE BEST DJ IN THE WORLD".

I've been listening to this for a couple days.
I really appreciate the way Dipset rappers flow. Their slant rhymes are crazy.
>>63620883
Be honest, don't you find it annoying as fuck? I want to listen to music not arrogant callouts. Even if it's in jest.
>>63620937
i used to think its annoying but ive gotten used to it and i like knowing who produced the song and it just makes it easier to remember. And in some songs its seems like they use the callout as a part of the lyrics for example in Kanye's "Father pt. 1"
>>63620995
Nah man. I still don't like it. But to each their own. I'm happy to google it myself considering I'm interested in who produced what. After a while you get to know producers styles.
It makes me wonder what trap producers are going to do when it dies out. I don't see it as a genre with a lot of longevity.
>>63620838
Check this out.

It'll substantiate my point.
>>63620995
Father stretch my hands pt. 1 wasn't made by Metro Boomin' all he did was add drums to a preexisting track.
>>63619656
Me too. The new Cauzndefx wasn't that good so i'm hoping Airospace saves the day.
Been listening to this album for a while now. Really enjoying it as of late
>>63621158
Sorry, much more of an r&b feel lol my blunder
>>63621103
Thanks, will watch.
>>63621142
that proves my point even more, its used as a lyric
>>63621158
boring.
>>63621213
I know I just wanted to let you know. I wouldn't say it's a lyric but more of a branding like signing a painting. It's stupid but we've gotten to the point now where producers want to be big names now, and I can't blame them. Like I've said, producers have always been underappreciated in hip-hop and want their shine now.
Real nigger questions: Why do so many hip hop artists talk slow as fuck in interviews? Are they camera shy? Dumb? What's the deal?
The only people I've seen really get into interviews were Vince Staples, Kanye and Pusha T.
>>63621236
To each their own, anon.
>>63621103
>taking tracks to the strip club
The fuck? I didn't even know this was a thing. Why would that even be a good indicator of whether a track is good or not? Release that shit online.
>>63621305
completely agree, but to be fair - they deserve the recognition
>>63597237
Just finished Slum Village's Fantastic Vol. 2
Wish the whole thing was as good as Fall In Love but it was still nice
6/10
>>63621312
It's hard to say, it could be camera shyness or stage fright, it could be a act of sabotage, maybe it's a cultural thing. I have no idea.
For example Nas and Scarface are very intelligent when it comes to their music, but when they have interviews they come off as blubbering buffoons sometimes.
But if you see videos where they're chilling with their homeys or in a relaxed environment they sound like how you would expect them to.
I don't have an answer, it's weird phenomenon for sure.
>>63621401
They do. But it still kind of pisses me off. I completely respect producers. Premo is one of my faves and I love that guy. I just don't like signatures all over them.
>>63621386
It's always been like that for trap, or in the southern hiphop in general around the crunk era.
No one cares about critics, or music publications, if it doesn't bump in the club, then it's trash. The goal is not artistic, it's financial.
>>63620858
Surprised you didnt pick up on the fact that they said big narstie was good
>>63621559
yeah, its definitely a trap exclusive thing and you only really see it on mixtapes as opposed to albums.
>>63610356
>extra sauce with the bread stuck to the bottom
>Freddie Forgiato all my bitches spoiled rotten
I love this album mane
>>63621518
Yeah man, I mean surely they're pretty well educated if they've made it that far. I mean, watching Young Thug in a couple of interviews and he comes off as either fucked up on lean, stupid or just hates interviews.
>>63621584
Why are people like Future and Young Thug getting praise from reviewers then?
South london drill/trap is best hiphop right now
>>63621559
The best case scenario would be if people researched the track and learned who the producer is, but people are lazy and the MC has always been the stars. Honestly it's fine at the end of the day because production tagging is limited to trap music.
>>63621638
Who should I listen to?
How come there's no rappers out there as good as Kanye, besides Kanye?
>>63621647
Yeah the only time I've ever heard it was trap. To be fair, as much as trap is growing in popularity, the producers behind more traditional hip hop are probably way more famous than people like metro, mike will, london etc.
>>63598795
mbv. duhhh
>>63621607
Reviewers can like their stuff, but they won't make their music to appease academia or try to create something with substance if you catch my drift.
>>63621700
drake is better
>>63621654
Check out dimzy and the rest of 67. Murky and violent, I'll admit the flows do get a bit samey after a while though. Also No Hook by Spooks is a banger in that sort of style, features P Money
>>63597237
Just the best flow.

>>63621717
Yeah I feel you. Kind of a shame because the themes around trap music are pretty much all the same. Sex, drugs, lean, violence, braggadocio etc.
I mean I like it, but I think it'd be possible to do a trap album while aiming for something a bit deeper than that surface level stuff.
>>63621745
Just the best flow.

Recently discovered these guys. Shit is dope. I fuck with them
>inb4 im late/its old

Need more east coast bangers. 90s, 00s, 10s, anything as long as it hits hard and whoevers spitting isn't complete trash.
>>63621981
Nah you're good. Betteroffdead is amazing. I find it hard to get through nearly 20 tracks or whatever it is though. I usually get half way and lose interest. It's a shame because the first half is amazing.

just saw playboi carti last night, was lit. he up next.
is there any modern rap artist that is good? i just cant listen to NEW/MODERN rap
>>63621518
Well the thing is people like Nas and Kendrick aren't actually intellectuals, they just make good music touching on serious topics.
>>63621981

>>63612067
ikr. I just need more doom in my life :( and i need more ghostface killah in my life so I guess that's double need
>>63613401
the original abstract and the dragon mixtape with q-tip was my fave
>>63620937
DJ tags i don't understand but they can be entertaining occasionally. producer watermarks are good because the new wave of producers is more important than the actually rappers
>>63613983
