Never really seems about the money with him but I imagine that Glover's response will dictate how it plays out. If they batten down the hatches and go full on offensive I can see him taking the gloves off and rightly so.

The world of social media seems to have moved on from it now :pac:




Here's a new track from Sim's new group with Aer Credits and Iceteps

Digging the 80's synth vibe

I love Redman, even if it's not his greatest song ever, I still can't get enough of his voice and energy.

I tried listening to the recent Migos album, not for me at all.

New song from Shad, album to follow:

Loving this.

Migos have a few joints but they're way too repetitive to be album artists in my book. Plus everybody has been copying them wholesale for the last 5 years which makes things a bit stale.

Walk it like I talk it is one of the most derivative, repetitive songs I've ever heard in my life.

52% of the words are just that "Walk it like I talk it."

He's the dude that hosts Hip Hop Evolution? Shamefully, I never twigged he was an MC.

Edit: Liking that track. Listen to a playlist of his stuff now. Right up my alley.

Jay Rock won @ BET awards

Well deserved

I don't know if I'm really interested in a new Chance album.

L'Orange and Solemn Brigham (Marlowe) is an amazing album.

Agreed.

Agreed.

I think what makes it so special is that there are only 3 songs over the 3 minute mark.
There is no formula to a song, each song sounds different but has a place.
Soleman has a tremendous flow.
L'Orange has evolved his beats from his last project.

Seem to have Redemption on repeat for the last while, between that and KOD I think we have the two albums of the year so far.

That said, Pusha T and Kids See Ghosts are also really good. After 3-4 listens of Kanye's album I haven't relistened to it.

Need to revisit NAS' album, apart from a few spins the first week I haven't gone back to it.

Is the Jay-Z album worth going to the bother of getting, haven't got a tidal sub so will have to buy it?

Boom_Bap

Redemption is great, it's growing with every listen as well.
Not sure about the Jay/Bey EP, haven't bothered with it after the first single as I think it's going to be just like Watch The Throne where they are taking the sound of now and making songs with it, rather that being a creative force.


Supreme Blientele from Westside Gunn is well worth a listen.
Another few that I have queued up are Freddie Gibbs, Mayhem Lauren x Muggs and Bus Driver. Going to try get through them this weekend.

I generally like listening to artist interviews in work as we are good to have youtube in the background with earphones, and listening to Jay Rock on one of the US radio shows gives a bit more insight into his work, his personal life and take on the songs, as well as how he feels he sits within the TDE hierarchy of artists now that Kendrick is the main player on the label.

Comes across very well imo.

Fefe is growing on me. I'm liking the beat and Nicki's verses are fire.

Loving that new Redman track

Would love a new album

New Rocky x Tyler is kind of like a pisstake of obtuse word play. I don't know what people are saying in half the American rap battles these days.

Speaking of punchline rap this ones beast.
