Lots of Kanye memers here at the moment. Let's try and introduce them to some actually good hip-hop.
I'll start first: A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders
His new album is a joke, but I'll always enjoy tCD, LR, and MBDTF.
itt: backpacker suburban teens
lets not just let them believe kanye is the best and they'll come undone
Underage please, the only people who think Kanye are a meme think MBDTF was his first album
>>62575017
Backpacker faggots give Midnight Marauders a bad name. Still probably the best hip hop album.
>>62574967
>>62574993
>>62575094
literally every time these threads happen people just post the same fucking albums
most kanye fans here have probably listened to Midnight Marauders desu
>>62575156
>the same fucking albums
It's almost as if those albums were good or something.
whole fucking ATCQ discogs
whole fucking Beastie Boys discogs
>>62575213
well no fuck but these threads are undeniably bland as shit. people usually don't even discuss anything either, they just post album covers we've all seen before
wouldn't be surprised if its the same people who post in them always
>>62575213
>i'm tired of people posting the same albums in these threads
wow it's almost like the albums are good or something
>i'm tired of people posting the same kanye album all the time
wow it's almost like the albums are good or something
both of those can be right or both of those can be wrong, make up your mind faggot
i dont even like kanye and love tribe n shit but this is cringey as fuck, take your le wrong generation bullshit somewhere else, retards
lol at backpackers mad that people enjoy popular production focused hip hop
Run The Jewels 2

>>62575666
This
>>62575691
But all the beats sound the same in that album. I mean it's good but it gets a bit repetitive.
>>62575745
This album is not very good.
>>62575792
Ok m8 :^)
>squabbling this much over shit music
>>62575785
You were born after 2001.
>>62574967
Though the fans want the feeling of A Tribe Called Quest,
But all they got
Left is this guy called west.
>>62575785
I disagree, but it wasn't about the beats.
>>62575785
>But all the beats sound the same in that album.
WTF?
>>62575799
I still like it, and own in on vinyl, etc.
But let's admit it's one of his weaker outputs.
>>62575799
My nigga are you retarded?

Kanye's first fully formed masterpiece
>>62575666
New Kanye was better than RTJ2 though.
>>62575974
Pendejadas
shocked nobody has posted this
Mic
>>62575964
Best producing Kanye's done IMO
Modern Classick
>>62575974
>>62576061
It's true, RTJ2 was not very good. RTJ1 was fucking awesome
>>62575979
but was it better than Labincalifornia?
Gangsta Rap's masterpiece.
HOT TAKE: you can simultaneously enjoy boom bap and trap
>>62576153
I like both the same
>>62576184
*collective gasp*
Hot take for /mu/ at least
>>62576190
You just can't stop with the memes can you?
>>62576301
Wat r memes
>>62576190
I wish I did, I really liked RTJ and was pretty dissappointed in RTJ2 :( it's still pretty good tho
>>62576313
>go to bathroom
>sit on toilet
>shit
>get up
>look in toilet
>memes
>>62576184
Well I don't. I wish trap would either leave or stay in the corner.
>>62576348
Wat exactly you didn't like about rtj2

>>62574993
>>62575691
>>62575878
>>62576148
>>62576183
good taste
>>62575666
>>62576393
i dont think so
Listening to it right now.
>>62576393
I thought the guests weren't as good and the theme/lyrical content of the album wasn't as good. RTJ1 felt more like Mike and El were teaming up to go on a mission, like they had a purpose. I dunno, RTJ2 just felt like it was a little more concerend with making "bangers".
>>62576461
readytodie is fucking awesome what are you on about?
>>62576509
The guest tracks are hit or miss but its a modern classic
>>62576548
Nigga are you autistic
RTJ 2 had better musicianship and teamwork
They were finishing each other's rhymes and writing each other's bars
>>62576461
WHY ARE YOU STILL TRYING TO SELL YOUR FUCKING ALBUM JUST STOP FUCKING POSTING IT
IT IS ABSOLUTE GARBAGE, STOP MAKING MUSIC AND HANG YOURSELF
>>62575964
This might be the only album I rarely ever skip anything or end early
>>62576659
They did the exact same shit on the first one though and with better beats and guest appearances.
>>62576461
>Ready To Die
>Bad Taste
Nigguh wat
>>62575834
came here to post this
>>62576747
No they didn't
On the first one they kept it more to their selves but I do agree on the features part
Plus Sea Legs is one of the best rap joints in awhile
>>62576815
I guess they didn't "finish each other's bars" but they did have interjections on each other's lines, where their bars and flows felt like they were crossing in and over each other. I dunno I was just underwhelmed when RTJ2 came out, to each their own tho.
>>62576923
Tru bout the opinion but wrong about the teamwork on rt1 thoe
what are the best artists active in the game now?
ive been lately listening logic for his flow which i admire (it sounds nice), j cole for both flow and dank beats, but both of them are fucking shit lyricist and it hurts me. Aside from tht im listening to future, Asap from time to time, Kendrick, and mosdef.
halp senpai, my music taste is too plebeian ;-;
Clear Soul Forces - Fab Five. From start to finish it's non stop amazing.
>>62576980

Awful Records has some okay people on their roster

Run The Jewels, Joey Badass, Earl Sweatshirt, Action Bronson, Freddie Gibbs, KRIT, Isaiah Rashad, Childish Gambino, Vince Staples, Open Mike Eagle, and Ratking
>>62576980
basically everything >>62577154 said, Isaiah Rashad, Mick Jenkins, and most stuff through Hellyfyre Club
>>62575156
I have and that doesn't change that kanye has a perfect disc. And that flop is very good
>>62577154
>Awful Records has some okay people on their roster
RETARD DETECTED
>>62577027
Clear Soul is dope asf
>>62577204
Childish Gambino should come with a disclaimer of *NOTHING BEFORE BTI*
>>62576548
>has taste
>>62576659
>"Nigga are you autistic"
...
RTJ is bad generally but especially on RTJ2
>>62577310
How tf is RTJ bad
You've must have Fokboi taste
>>62577271
Carti (Have you even heard Fetti?)
Ethereal (Blackli$st was tight)
Father (sort of, he's at least a pretty good producer)
>>62576509
Pre was kind of weak but good album other than that
>>62577310
>RTJ is BAD

>>62575666
>>62575878
>>62576183
>>62576461
>>62576509
overrated garbage (Mobb Deep and Run the JEWels especially)
>>62576078
in my experience many people are sleep on this album
>>62577374
I've always looked at Pre as being Earl's middle finger to all the ridiculous expectations and hype leading up to his first real album release.
Hardcore or nothing!!
what do yall think about Earl's IDLSIDGO compared to Doris?
>>62577518
Noice pick
>>62577597 boi Killer Mike n El P are god-tier
Run-the-jewels just keeps in improving
>>62577697
Doris>
>>62577697
Both 7.5/10
I like Earl but hes really not that great. He's definitely good but hes kind of 1 dimensional. If he doesnt change his style a little on his next joint than he will fall even farther into obscurity
>>62577697
Doris is much better imo. Don't like Shit is succinct and tighter and more cohesive but Earl plainly didn't just put as much effort into his verses. Probably sophomore slump and because he handled production on his own for the first time. If it was just 30 tight minutes of the same production but with verses of the same quality as what he spit on Wool it would be a 10. The Wiki and Vince Staples features are perfect too but Dash and the non-rapper are not.
>>62577666
my nigga
>>62577880
I think with IDLS he was trying to find a balance between his complex rhyme schemes that often went over most listeners' heads, but I still get your point.
I think Solace still might be his best piece of work yet though
>>62576461
Loved this shit. Most of this board is over 25 hence most never liked it. The following remains small yet persistent. I tip my hat, and I highly recommend this album to anyone not old enough to remember OJ.
>>62577836
Have you heard his verse on New Faces? Idk why he chooses to not use that flow/voice all the time
>>62576078
Dope album>>62576108
>>62577880
Upboated
>>62578014
Thats his best verse easily. Him and Mac need to collaborate
>>62578000
Nice trips and it isnt because theyre older than 25, its because most of /mu/ needs their music chewed up for them. Theyre NEETS, Angry Kid is a stoner "teen angst" album. It will never be fully embraced by /mu/
>>62577836
Disagree. His flow is based on DOOM but he replaces the absurd level of technical skill with actual lyrical content outside of DUDE QUADRUPLE ENTENDRE ABOUT WEED AND PUSSY ILLEST VILLAIN LMAO
>>62578179
Yeah, I think Mac deserves more respect for his transition from KIDS to now. A complete 180
>>62578229
yeah, Mantra and Grief might be my favorite songs of his so far. He was able to actually find the balance between lyricism and content for the first time on this album imo
>>62578238
Indeed, Mac is a top dog now, not everyone knows it, but he is
How do you guys feel about lil ugly mane oblivion access.... aoty imo
Paid in Full
Follow the Leader
>>62574967
It's incredible. How many times can you morons have this thread? Don't you get tired of slamming your ugly twit faces against one another over and over and over and over as you show each other THE BEST rap album that's identical to the ones discussed in the thread we had on this very same topic three hours ago?
Get some taste! Expand your horizons! Stop listening to the same crap ad nauseum you fucking fourteen year olds, geeeeeee-zus
>>62580479
Settle down dad. It's no different with any other genre.
How bout some proto rap eh? heheh
>>62580729
No, the behavior I described in my post is clearly much worse with this particular genre
>>62580734
Why don't you read the titles you stupid nigger
>>62580734
Let me tell you them:

yes, CLEARLY
>>62580822
>callingsomeone a stupid nigger in a hip hop thread
Oh the humanity
>>62580782
It's not objectively worse. This thread isn't even discussing what THE BEST anything is. Everyone is just comparing different albums.
>>62580900
Hip hop fans are clearly much less intelligent than virtually any other music community since hip hop is made by and for unintelligent people
>>62580944
Yes, clearly
>>62580999
I didn't say objectively. I know hip hop fans have trouble with literacy but you shouldn't be browsing an internet forum if you're still learning to read
>>62580952
>calling someone a nigger in a nigger music thread
What's the problem, exactly? Isn't that what your favorite rappers do all the time?
>>62581066
Come on, ad hominem? Get out of here. Now you're just trying to be inflammatory.
One day you'll grow up and realize you don't have to listen soley to conscious hip hop like a giant faggot
