Young Thug
Immortal Technique is going on tour. Hopefully The Middle Passage soon.
So /hhg/ what are some releases y'all are hyped for?
>>64061141
Really don't know what to expect from DJ Shadow to be honest.
>>64061162
Well it certainly won't be entroducing. I'm hoping it will at least be better than The Outsider. The single is much more ambient-oriented and electronic than his usual stuff though.

>>64061222
Who knows. He might pull something amazing out and surprise everyone. I'll take a listen, thanks.
Ergh, I'm thinking about using a trip code because I like to frequently make these threads but people hate trips.
>tfw proper thread is being saged over shit posting threads
every time
Pretty excited for new Aesop. Hate the album cover though.
Guys please check this guy out. Probably think I'm viral marketing but this guy is seriously dope and slept on.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFHeIYbh-wk
>>64061495
Looking forward to it too. New rtj and isn't king push coming out this year too? Gonna be a good year
Spark Master Tape release tomorrow, hype
>>64061141
Dalek is releasing a new album? Fuck yea
>>64061523
Really excited for Pusha T. Darkest Before Dawn was amazing and in my top 5 last year.
Anyone else listened to Layers yet? I felt pretty let down really. Kind of sad.
>>64061516
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMicccdmYsc
Another awesome song by him. He got an album or anything?
>>64061553
Yeah Darkest before dawn was bloody amazing. Haven't listened to it in a few weeks, been listening to a bunch of Aesop and Wu-Tang.
Might as well listen to it now actually
>>64061654
Go for it. I need to listen to more Aesop. I've still only heard Labor days. Scared of where to go next.
>>64061672
None Shall Pass or Skelethon would probably be pretty good. Also listening to Untouchable reminded me the version of it Aesop did that was pretty good
>>64061046
https://youtu.be/1-qtxUzeFnM
southern af
>>64061733
Thanks. Might start on Skeleton.
>>64061753
Skelethon is probably my favourite album so not gonna argue with you there
>>64061799
Now I'm just psyched.
>>64061820
I'd start with Skelethon or None Shall Pass also. If you like both of those then pretty listen to anything of his in any order. Maybe save Bazooka Tooth for last. His weakest project but still a 7/10
>>64061873
Cheers dude. I can feel he'll be one of my all time favourites soon.
>>64061250
Idk. I only use it sometimes when I'm trying to bump the thread. Just don't be a meme like Monty and nobody will bother you I find.
>>64061495
What about the alternative cover?
>>64061672
I would definitely recommend None Shall Pass, it was the album that got my into Aes.
>>64061923
Only reason I wanted to use a trip was because I like to contribute a lot in hip hop generals.
I'm gonna hit up everything Aesop though.
>>64061923
Ehh I like the colors better. The style just isn't my thing though. Do you know the name of the artist? Or was it Aes himself that designed it?
>>64062084
As far as I know someone else drew it. Can't remember the name of the artist though.
new Rae Sremmurd single, getting pretty excited for their new album
http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/rae-sremmurd-look-alive-new-song.1969393.html
Anyone know anyone who can rap as good as Earl? His technical skill is far ahead of anyone I've listened to, especially for his age. He'll definitely go down as one of the GOATs along with Kendrick.
https://soundcloud.com/massappealrecs/dj-shadow-nobody-speak-feat-run-the-jewels
Good lord this is good.
New DJ Shadow + RTJ
>>64062316
Migos
>>64062571
but reall though
>>64062588
Migos single handedly shaped a style of rap thats being used by basically every single rapper nowawdays
Like them or dislike them, they are all technically good rappers
>>64062630
Yeah I'd agree as far as flow/cadence goes. But Earl can absolutely destroy almost any rapper lyrically and technically.
>>64062663
I wouldn't say he would "destroy" any rapper, but he certainly is one of the more talented young artists. I'd excited to see the direction his next project goes in
>>64062745
By destroy I really mean how far ahead of his peers he is.
why is there two hhg threads
anyway waiting for vft6(inb4 10 million threads aoty when it comes out), new schoolboy, and ferg
>>64062896
this one is better 2bh (i didn't even see the other one)
>>64061548
its already out
>Ctrl+F "Dilla"
>0 results
Shit general.
>>64062781
Don't really think he's that far ahead of Vince or Rashad
>>64062516
Can't believe I missed this, this is good as fuck

A hip hop thread full of anons with patrician tastes and next to no trolls or plebs. I'm proud, /mu/. I'm just gonna make a random list of some of my favorite joints that most of you might not have heard, hopefully I can put you guys onto something good.

>>64061046
Anyone got a rec for something similiar to Injury Reserve, jazzy, but not just some Digable Planets ripoff, has a modern feel
>>64064316
Is that Dumbfounded track a Cool Calm Pete reference?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MN3OHwU9w6o
Also, when will Pete return
>>64064325
US3 possibly?
>>64064546
fug, forgot, not super modern
>>64064558
Lol, appreciate it anyways anon, it's ok, more literally jazz inspired than something like Digiable Planets, still not what I was looking for
>>64064589
Yeah I feel you. Injury Reserve is great, I wish I could find more like it. Not like Chance and the social experiment type stuff.
>>64064604
Yah, Ive played their mixtape so much, even tracked down their first EP, wasn't great, but it satiated me for a bit
>>64064628
Is it available to download anywhere? Their definitely an up and coming group to watch out for. I hope they get more exposure besides Fantano.
>>64064644
