you for real? what's unique about a hip-hop album dealing with blackness?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahaha
Barter 6 might be the most important hip-hop album of this decade. Its barely there production doesn’t so much frame his rapping as it does provide a surface for his words to dance upon, to explore the art of rapping in multiple dimensions: melodically, rhythmically, lyrically, and in terms of composition. His voice glides through the thick absence of sound. He’s responsible for a lot of the songwriting; he knocks out his own hooks, and his writing speaks to his use of phrasing, his backgrounds, the flows he uses, and the way he plays with each song’s internal architecture. On “Halftime,” his car-screech adlibs are elongated—it’s as if a camera panned suddenly from a pinprick of light, causing it to blur—so he can change tones, harmonizing this background yelp with his own main vocals.
His lyrical style stands out in a number of ways; the most obvious is his ear for figurative language. Thug’s similes often build upon familiar imagery, but move in unexpected directions. On “Check,” he opens rapping about a “Mink coat with the rolls like a Shar Pei”; later on, he raps, “All my niggas, they hard, call them beetles.” These aren’t punchlines intended to get rap fans doubling over laughing (although they can be funny in their unpredictability). Thug seems more interested in an original and idiosyncratic approach to imagery, in discovering pathways in language that haven’t already been heavily traveled.
In this, his lyrical approach is closer to a rapper like Raekwon than it is Lil Wayne, with whom Thug is frequently compared through some fault of his own. But any close reading of his lyrics suggest comparisons between The Barter 6 and Wayne’s Carter series, for which it is named, are a total misdirection. Where Wayne shredded his vocals against hip-hop’s formal constraints, Thug is a synthesist, a rapper of control, an artist in the process of reassembly.
4 albums posted, 4 memes laughed at. Is this what \mu\ has come to?

hiphop is a meme genre, so it makes total sense
Call it a meme all you want, but you can't deny the skill.
Better than any and every album in this thread production-wise and lyrically.

i like it, but to think it's better than the masterful production made by London on the Track in Young Thug's Barter 6, you tweakin
>>65628580
That's like the worst Outkast album though

what are some other hip hop albums that are similar?

bait? if not;
dealing with blackness has very little to do with TPAB. The albums themes focus mainly on self-love, self-hate, dealing with the guilt of wealth and success while coming from a poor background. Race isnt the focus at all its more an idea that the main themes sprout from.
