>>61443199
Because he isn't good enough to hold up a solo album by himself/
>>61443280
I dare you to listen to sing about me by Kendrick Lamar read the lyrics and tell me its bad
>no doom in any list so far
cmon fammys
>>61443288
Dr. Dre almost never writes his own raps
How is Kendrick so low on your list
I agree on Kanye
>>61443027
what a horrible list except for Kendrick
1. MC Ride
2. El-P
3. MF Doom
4. MC from Shabazz Palaces/Digable Planets
5. MC from dälek
6. Killer Mike
7. Kendrick Lmao
8. Wu-Tang
9. The 2 guys from Ratking
10. MC from Moe and ghosts
>>61443294
Kendrick Lamar created a social movement with To Pimp A Butterfly and created discussion about racial tension and corruption with impeccable flow and unique sound I think the last time we saw this was the wall by pink Floyd
>>61443366
What's wrong with the rest of the rappers explain each one
>>61443362
Haven't heard much of Kendrick that's why he's low and Dre is a legend who put out quality content but in reality it's more about his beats as well as putting many great artists on to the game
1. Eminem
2. Fort Minor
3. Johnny Rebel
4. Aesop Rock
5. Lil Dicky
>>61443362
I remember my sister brought me a copy of So Far Gone home from New Orleans back when I was first starting high school.
I wish he would have kept up with his indie pop samples. Thought they were pretty cool. His flow is probably the best on that album too.
>>61443389
they all make generic mainstream hip hop with no interesting song structures, lyrics or production whatsoever?
>>61443366
>mc ride
LOL
>>61443321
Thought about putting doctor doom on my list right after I posted it
>>61443408
I suggest listening to more of Kendrick his music can change you as a person listen to: sing about me, hiiipower, Keisha's song, immortal man, many others I can't think of at the moment
>>61443362
Oh shit how terrible is that I thought that said "Drake almost never writes his own raps" lmao I feel dumb defending this nigga without anything about him ever being mentioned
>>61443448
Ill check it out

5. J. Cole
>>61443656
Good list, but Kendrick 3rd?
>>61443563
Young Thug as Tupac is a melody master, hes keep growing and will reach high levels.
and Lil Wayne invented Swag rap.
>>61443521
Kendrick is great I liked all his projects so far, but thought TPAB was overrated musically (was still a great album) and I understand that it was important for the culture and all that.
Vince Staples is really good, I just wish Summertime 06 was more concise but he's got a lot of potential.
>Die Antwoord
>Lafa Taylor
>Pusha T
>Foreign Beggars
>Kesha
>Sway
>Yelawolf
>Lady Sovereign
>Lil Jon
>Messinian
>>61443705
On a talent level young thug shouldn't be on the list
>>61443739
Where the fuck do you live that die antwoord is even on your list ?
>>61443731
Agree for the most part
>>61443743
You probably mean on a lyrical level.
Young Thug has plenty of talent.
>>61443763
meant to quote
>>61443739
>>61443780
Let's just say he doesn't belong in the same sentence as Kendrick or Nas
>>61443780

>>61443830
I enjoy his progression as an artist from kids to watching movies with the sound off I fuck with his early shit and his new stuff as well some of it becomes drug addled babble though. Opinions on delusional Thomas ?
>>61443816
Ewok that made me lol
>>61443842
Bait or serious ?
>>61443841
I don't care about secret clubs or soundcloud, I just don't enjoy the 3 rappers I quoted on that post and don't think they should be on any top list ever, because they're completely interchangable and irrelevant to Hip Hop culture as a whole.
>>61443949
How is that for j Cole
>>61443867
Ye, i wasnt a big fan of the drugy shit..
DT was packed on lyrics, good beats, bars.. I can hear nice delivery behind the chipmunk voice aswell.. Which is the big downside.
>>61443949
explain that for jcole
explain that for old logic. i will agree the incredible true story was a disappointment because he should have went a "progressive" route with his lyrics but jesus christ how can you hate on j cole...
>>61444055
I'm willing to bet he doesn't listen to J cole
>>61443999
Thinking he was in a dark time when he made DT reflected by his lyrics and the use of a lot of chop and screwed songs
>>61443098
No one gives a fuck faggot
>>61444055
I feel the same way about J Cole as I do about Logic. Mixtapes dope, thought he was gonna shine when he went mainstream, then completely disappointed.
Logic's second album is even worse.
>>61443893

He doesn't bring anything to the table I haven't heard before. I admit that my meme post was a bit harsh and just a hyperbole of my opinion. Of course he is a talented rapper (Logic and Mac Miller too) but there's something missing. I can't make out a distinct personality and I can't connect with the lyrics enough to justify their averageness. I guess in a time where there's so much experimentation going on in Hip Hop, just being a decent rapper doesn't cut it anymore. For me at least.
How about some actual reasons why you guys don't like these people instead of just saying you don't like them
>>61444195
J Cole is more than Just an average rapper he's just a step below Kendrick imo
>>61444195
Listen to watching movies with the sound off guarantee you will change your mind about Mac
>>61443241
ur just being baited, my man
>>61444210

>Drake anything lower than 1

>>61444303
I like Drake, but Cole is better and neither are even on the same planet as Kendrick

Once drake made "jumpman" it was over for him for myself I was a big fan of his earlier music like so far gone
>>61444345
Good for you
https://nopaste.me/view/9051b234
>>61444241
>>61444195
Watching Movies isn't the album to show people who aren't Mac fans. Faces is probably a better route to go.
>>61444366
Those raps are just for money and popularity
>>61444395
Why's that ?
>>61443136
eyedea was GOAT.
slug was really good.
nujabes was affiliated with rappers but he was only a producer so you should prob list the rappers you like.
kendrick is neat but kind of w/e in my righteous opinion.
>>61444412
That's what I don't like
>>61443136
oh and as for earl, j cole and logic it's no ty
>>61444419
The first few tracks are little less accessible I feel like.
I used to feel the same way about WMWTSO and it was always the album I would tell people to listen to but then I realized that Faces was a better transition from traditional hip-hop to more experimental kinda stuff plus the lyrics are better.
>>61444240
>>61444241
Ok, I feel like I already did enough to warrant my opinion. I listened to that Mac Miller album with the movies when it came out and it didn't give me much, like I said before. I thought Faces was his most interesting project, but it didn't resonate with me enough that it had me come back to it.
>>61444319
>unironically thinks kendrick is better than both j cole or drake
are you yet another TPAB dickrider who can't see it's a mediocre album? literally what has he done to warrant that level of respect?
>>61444366
>cant appreciate a hype song on a quick collabo project put out really just to tide people over while he works on his album
>>61443136

>All these faggots putting Kendrick at the top.
>No Scarface

Dafuq's wrong witchu?
>>61444580
He raps with a purpose and its bigger than music his music has impact like 2 pacs did this guys music is very influential his song "alright" became an anthem for black lives matter his music has brought people out of depression and suicide and that's not to mention his arsenal of different flows his word play, wit, and 10/10 storyteller
>>61444612
Kendrick is the best so deal with it unless you can explain how he's not
>>61444534 (You)
When you're listening to Kendrick, just remember that they're not like other rappers. His music is incredibly artistic, almost to the point where you have to be paying complete attention to them to even remotely understand them. I remember listening to a song on To Pimp a Butterfly (though I can't remember what it was), where I thought a song was absolute bollocks during the listen. Then, I closed my eyes for a second, and all of a sudden the song had an entirely new meaning. It was insane the way Kendrick could just become something so different when you take a look into the music.
Another thing you should note about Kendrick is that it's easy to get a headache listening him. Not because he's a bad rapper, but because of how many ideas his music is riddled with and how complex they are. Soon enough your head will fill to the brim and the rest will just sound like noise to you. Just turn it off and give it a listen the next day.
If you don't like the music, you'll definitely at least enjoy reading through the lyrics, and picking apart the song itself and all of the artistic values that go into making it the complexity that it is.>>61444580
>>61443241
I wouldn't hate rap so much if retards didn't push it to say it's poetry. Admit that it's a bunch of mouthbreathers chanting about cars and bitches and I can laugh at you from my pedestal.
>>61444689
Some is listen to for free by Kendrick its pretty much spoken word poetry

White Guilt: The Album
>>61444778
*tips white guilt*
my personal top 10 right now.
1. Kendrick Lamar - Simply more musically ambitious than his contemporaries. Great performance from all features. TPAB has a message that needed to be said especially
2. Lil Ugly Mane - Highly experimental hip hop, but beautifully produced. A highly nuanced approach to lo-fi sounds.
3. MC Ride - Trademark aggressive, brutally honest and sometimes highly introspective and personal (ex: On GP)
4. Earl Sweatshirt - Earl has always been a lyricist virtuoso since his teens. His rapping is fantasic on his last album, but was really pisspoor on his last album. Not all musicians are producers!!
5. Travis Scott - He's hip-hop's Andy Worhol. Elevating this ATL trap sound to a more artistic level.
6. Injury Reserve - Well produced and very unique, experimental approach to jazz rap.
7. Czarface - Great rapping throughout the album. You get invested in the story with more listens. Great study rap.
8. Nickelus F - Amazing production but felt the rapping isn't on par.
9. Vince Staples - Summertime 06 was a solid album. My biggest grip was the run time. Too long, but ambitious for a debut album
10. Lupe Fiasco - Talented rapper but personally I feel Lupe's music could be so much better if he got to the point sometimes and not come across so preachy.

No ones saying you have to like it I'm just telling you an album I think you should listen to
>>61444841
I like your explanation on a lot of the rappers, but I'm curious on what you meant with Earl and do you see any rappers on your list with top 5 all time potential
>>61443027
1. illicit tripp
2. Earl Sweatshirt
3. Mac Miller (new stuff)
4. Ab-Soul
5. Lucki Eck$
>>61443027
Eminem should be number one /mu/ aside. Also j Coke shouldn't be on the list at all you are a trendy disgrace.
>>61443480
Mac is the best artist in hip hop are you a tard?
>>61444796
Faggot who can't accept that the world is still full of racial tension and pointing it out to get it discussed it somehow trying to make white people seem guilty detected thinks because some white people are racist all must be can't comprehend the meaning
>>61444932
Name one thing wrong with J Cole?
>>61443656
How the fuck is j Coke better than Mac Miller? And where is Jonathan Mathis on your list?
>>61444969
u wot m8. Wanna try typing that again?
>>61444978
J Cole is better than Mac Miller...
>>61444395
But Macadelic is his best project...
>>61444970
Name one thing good about him... He's so bland and burning even his beats he's just such shit. He's only decent when he gets on a sick beat... Which is never one he made. I.e. Tale of 2 cities
>>61445000
Not really just be literate and I'm sure you can figure it out
How can you guys even say Tpab is mediocre have you seen the awards/ratings the album got?
>>61445014
J Coke is the worst rapper in the game and Mac is the best how can you say that?
>>61444969
>the intelligence of the average kendrick fan
>>61444978
u dumb as shit fäm
>>61445043
Apparently you only listen to music for the beat. J Cole has a message and his music makes you imagine he's extremely relatable and he's what you would call a conscious rapper
>>61444661
Ice cube is better. Let me tell you why.
>Has a large number of songs that aren't liberal political bullshit
>When he does get political he's reasonable and not annoying as fuck.
>Always great and varied production.
>Still relevant after almost 30 years.
>>61445051
No, you literally typed nonsense
>>61445060
Jonathan Mathis is better though i must admit. Macs just been in the game so long but he's not "better".
>>61445018
I used to wear out Macadelic. So much nostalgia
>>61445074
No he can't rap for shit he rhymes a whole sixteen bars with nigga Mac is diverse as fuck and lyrical j Coke is sooooo bland tasteless and average idgaf if hes concious he's still not good.

>>61445117
>cant type out a coherent sentence
>>61445134
kek
>>61445144
I was looking forward to Black Friday and it's literally soundcloud rapper tier both Kendrick AND j Coke only got credit off of hype not a SINGLE dope line was said huge disappointment
>>61445144
2014 had three great songs which were tale of 2 cities wet dreams and no role models, but every other track was god awful not even worth a second listen. I don't care ab hype if ur not good ur not good.
>>61445178
>>61445178
The songs weren't supposed to be meaningful just giving their fans new music in between projects
>>61445152
You're racist that's why you say that
>>61445144
>there are actually /mu/ tants who think J Cole is better than Jonathan Mathis
wtf
>>61445199
I honestly don't think you're smart enough to understand rappers like Cole, Kendrick, or Earl
Could someone try and decode what this retard is saying: >>61444969 ??? Thanks in advance.
>>61445204
Not about being meaningful they were lyrically awful. If Mac hopped on that shit it would've been mind blowing lyrically. Coke had nothing good come out of his mouth and niether did Kendrick yea his flow was nice but lots of rappers have nice flows people just loved it cuz it's Kendrick and Cole but it wasn't good
>>61445233
Can someone make this stupid racist buthole stahp
>>61445245
If you say Mac would do better than Kendrick on anything you don't listen to rap
>>61445228
Kendrick and earl are amazing. J Cole is just shit. 2020 SAT suck a dick don't insult me. Only idiots like j Cole anyway.
>>61445266
Why? Am I triggering you, tumblrina?

You obviously listen to pitchfork more than you listen to "rap"
>>61445298
Lmao exactly
>>61445222
No one said that. I don't think Cole is better than Mathis I'm just saying Cole is lyrically one of the best rappers right now.

>>61445300
You and all the other Mac fan boys are the only ones that would say that Macs Projects were better. Kendricks 1st project was story telling with a message his 2nd had purpose, a message, and it needed to be said and is very impactful you can't say that about mac
>>61445319
please don't mention J Cole and Jonathan Mathis is the same sentence it's insulting to artists everywhere

Chance is better than Mac don't be butt hurt
>>61445454
Not fact at all actually.

Actually on a much higher level than he's saying it. Go read a book from any black author and they're making a bigger "impact" than Kendrick Llama will ever make.

delusional thomas is really good. I actually enjoy the pitched up voice
>>61445515
Ok well I'm pretty sure we can all agree this is fact, only due to the way he delivers theme and the fact that he's self mixed and produced which idk if any other rappers do, his track record isn't long enough to say but just Angry Kid alone shows a lot of promise of what's to come.

What subject matter of his isn't complex
>>61445700
All of them.
>>61445700
Complex to a low IQ mouthbreather maybe
>>61445680
Earl has a strong mf doom influence to his lyrics so if you like that style where the artist puts himself in strange situations you're probably going to like him more
>>61445695
Because he's doing it in an era where its all about money cars clothes and hoes

Why is J Cole so revered?
J Cole does absolutely nothing special whatsoever. He is one of the only rappers that I am confused how they rose to fame. Literally every single rapper I know of that has risen to fame, had some reason for it. Whether they were amazing lyricists, or cheap hacks that spit some shitty bars over amazing beats. But Cole literally is one of the most average rappers the world has ever known. Literally Logic, MC Ride, Mac Miller, Pusha T, Tyler the Creator, fuck even JAY ROCK bring SOMETHING to the table but Cole does NOTHING.
>>61445739
Tell me how his raps aren't more complex than any other rapper give an actual example of his music
>>61445680
>>61445740
Earl has a very similar style to Jonathan idk that he's not better but Jonathan does do a lot more than earl does. Angry Kid was 90 minutes worth of conceptual masterpiece vs IDLS which was 20 minutes of lyrically shallow depression-core. It was good I'm not saying it's not but is it really in the same level as AK? All hype aside of course.
>>61445746
>implying that hasnt been the mainstream for 30 years and in every era there's been great rappers talking about real issues underneath all that
he's not special
all the kendrick dickriding is literally making me hate him and i think hes a great rapper just not the second coming of jesus and tupac that these fucking white kids think he is
>>61445758
8.5/10 lyricism
9/10 story teller
8/10 wordplay
This is what makes Cole good
>>61445781
He's the smartest man in Retarded Jeopardy. Big deal.
1)kitty pryde
1)azealia banks
3)Meechy Darko
4)Billy Woods
5)Danny Brown or Earl
6)Lil Ugly Mane
are the current best rappers everyone else is irrelevant.
not gonna make a top all time list cause that's boring
>>61445746
He's changing the music scene back to what it should be I don't know why that's so hard to understand the rap game has become so fucking superficial that kicking it back to being about issues in the real world is risky and only a good mc can make tracks that go against the grain so much and come out one of the most revered rappers of the time the game is polluted with money whores and people who rely on image that's why he's great
>>61445804
It wasn't. Mathis had AOTY can we drop it now?
>>61445811
>>61445811
How much have you actually listened to him like really listened not hear, but listen
>>61445865
This
>>61445695
>Implying that most of this "racial injustice" is a result of niggers doing illegal shit a d giving cops shit instead of following the law.
Hahahhaha wow, damn you solved the racial issue for all of us dude.....
The problem goes way deeper than that Tbh. You seem very naive
Rap listeners are either pseuds or proud retards.
>>61445076
Oh here we go with the rose colored glasses. Jesus christ stop being an elitist hipster and admit new age artists are surpassing your almighty, golden pedestal triflin' "gods".
ARE WE THERE YET? DO YOU GET IT?!

Kendricks album was better than Jonathans it had a larger impact.

2.Pusha T

J Cole is so incredibly boring and predictable 90% of the time
>>61445984
I'll 2nd that
>>61445937
While I'm not denying that it goes deeper, there /is/ data that shows the high prevalence of black crime. This not fucking whitey's fault.
>>61445984
Fuck no. Kendrick had a larger impact bc Jonathan Mathis isn't signed, has one album, and only /mu/ knows about it. TPAB was NOT better than Angry Kid in the slightest fuck outta here.
Stop sleeping family members
>>61446041
Montana is pretty dope
>>61446036
I wonder why only/mu/ knows about him I'm sure there's a reason
>>61446036
true. Kendrick does have the Dre cosign and Mathis has... um... idk. he sort of has to market himself. he's a cool dude I have him on snapchat he posts the trippiest shit.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5TNMVkhpfB8
>>61446791
holy shit I'm actually going to check out his album now :0
>>61446791
dude holy fuck this is amazing
like seriously thank you
>>61446862
yea man I had no idea Jonathan was actually that good. the production alone is top notch.
>>61443027
2. ODB
3. Gucci Mane

6. Lil B
..
15. Tupac (at best)
>>61447021
his production is a+ for what Im assuming is very low tier equipment and no studio
if he was partnered with a god send producer hed be dropping top chart albums
there's already a meme rap thread
>>61439115
>>61439115
>>61439115
keep your shitposts condensed
Sometimes you guys are fucking ridiculous. How contrarian you got to be to say Cole is bad lmao.
Also. Vince got mad lyrics, great voice but most of his beats are shite. Also, he doesn't say shit on S06, he just says he was from the norf side beach and a crip, and that shit was heavy, but he doesnt really tell anything.. He's got great potential but right now he's not that good
>no mention to Isaiah
>no mention to Mick
>>61447212
he mixes and masters his own stuff I don't think he's willing to partner with a producer. if we help him out in these sort of discussions maybe he'll build a fa base and build his own studio like Hopsin did. production wise that isn't his bat song though it's gotta be D.I.Lated.
How do i into Lil Ugly Mane senpai?
I got MTI, what now?

suck a dick cracker
i still cant believe coonye done put that wack cac post Malone on a track
this fatass has a bunch of videos of him and his white friends as teenagers acting like normal cacs doing they cactivities with 0 of that fake blackccent he now uses
everything about him is so fake it pisses me off
>>61446316
holy shit is this really Jonathan Mathis' or is it yours? -_-
>>61447264
his mic needs to be better for an example. I understand his filter but it still could be recorded with more clarity.
>>61447480
agreed. ima screenshot this and send it to him any more advice you got?
>>61447579
DUDE STOP SAMEFAGGING AND FUCK OFF FOREVER
NO ONE LIKES JONATHAN EXCEPT HIMSELF AND HIS 1 BUTT BUDDY THAT SPAMMED /MU/ FOR WEEKS ON END. FUCK YOU.
>>61447624
nice trip Alex nice to see you still browse /mu/
>>61447579
Jon, you're a talented artist especially for your age. Keep at it. We know it's you. I've got high hopes for you. You over writing your band page and you constantly replying is a sure sign this is actually you. You're good and don't give up on it. Your style is fresh. God speed, bro.
>>61447654
ohhhh shit the proof is in the puddin
>the only /mu/ meme still around in 2016
>>61447684
he can't be Jonathan because I'm Jonathan
>>61447702
I'm still better than MBDTF
>>61447737
seeing his samefagging is starting to turn me off. i rarely browse /mu/
sucks cuz hes not bad but if hes this much of a gigantic faggot irl idek...
post unbelievable albums (with dank)
>niggers are allowed to use cracker in hhg but if you say nigger you get redirected to /b/
lmao
>>61447684
not the guy and it may have been Jonathan but keep in mind spamming him was a popular meme since he did it back in October I think it's much more likely people are just fucking around. He's not gonna spam /mu/ like he used to just to get shit on by people like
>>61447702
>>61447654
I think /mu/ ers are just meming ignore it. Jonathan if you're reading this I liked your album keep at it but market somewhere else as well you're not gonna get a large following just from /mu/ alone.
>>61447820
literally who
>>61447794
I mention him whenever there's a hip hop thread I've talked to him many times through social media he's not a dick don't worry. This is a meme give it like twenty minutes it'll pass.
>>61447828
cracker is not a racial slur you stupid honkey
>>61447854
... Jonathan Mathis? Fucking kidding me?
>>61447820
I keked
In regards to Jonathan Mathis - Angry Kid: Did no one else get his mass email from months ago? please stop it. He isn't samefagging. If anything he'd be pissed that people are still mending with this album it isn't funny. For all you newfags who weren't here, people used to post this shit everywhere. It's even a meme on /b/. He was upset because meming takes away the value of his art is how he phrased it he seemed almost depressed over it. He admitted he spammed it immediately when he heard about 4chan last October for like four days straight and its residue is still fucking here just let t go. It isn't him. I've talked to him. It's little fucking sixteen year olds who think they're doing him a favor by spamming you aren't ok? Fucking stop. NOW!
>>61447828
Are you literally 12
>>61448044
This just in: No one cares
>>61446791
His voice reminds me of El-P a little bit
>>61448044
>the value of his art
lmao
>>61448357
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me you cheeky, pretentious, pitchfork guzzling, straight edge, beta ass, piece of cum mixed with coffee drinking, government-trusting faggot? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Middle School of Memes and Trip-Hop, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Tumblr, and I have over 300 confirmed downloads on my mixtape. I am trained in viral warfare and I’m the top rapper/producer/singer/multi-instrumentalist/all around artist in the entire US forced meme forces. You are nothing to me but just another hatefag. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of druggie fans across the USA and your IP is being traced right now telepathically through my ESP which I have attained by my excessive use of psychedelics so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your thread. You’re thread is fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can meme you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my first mixtape. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of my Bandcamp mailing list and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable thread off the face of the internet, you little Swans loving, terrible taste having, 24-caratflower golden toilet paper using, slut for a mom having shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit anger all over you and you will drown in it. You’re entire board is fucking dead, kiddo.
>>61445076
well, all those except for the last one (so far) are true for kendrick
like, pretty much any political bullshit you project unto him is exactly that, stuff you project
not saying his shit isn't political in nature, but just because he talks about subjects that are political doesnt make his songs political
killer mike is political as fuck in his raps, kendrick doesnt do any of that killer mike shit
and kendrick has done two major label albums so far, sounding completely different, both also sounding great
honestly im not that big of a kendrick dickrider, tpab isnt even on my top 5 2015, but your points are just pure shit

I'm drunk and this is the best thing I've ever read
>>61448467
>implying jonathan mathis isnt artistic
why anon?
>>61447284
i guess oblivion access.
it's probably one of my new favorite albums. it's pretty different from MTI though. There's no pitchshifting or obvious memphis roots. Instead there's noise elements and even better rapping and varied beats.
Uneven Compromise is real good too though. It's a short project anways
>>61448489
hahahahhahahahahahahaha
>>61448431
>mfw EL-P don't make beats like dis
>mfw EL-P don't spit bars like dis
>mfw EL-P's meme following don't go hard like dis
None of these are in any particular order, pretty much just whoever came to mind first. Also, many of these could apply to either list (new or all time), it just depends on if they've released anything substantial lately.
