Hip Hop 2018

Shapey Fiend · 04-02-2018 12:37am

I've loved rnbish trap music for years but it's verrrry hit and miss. Needed to find the right curators because it's not an album medium. Migos a prime example critics push the idea constantly but they're singles artists. Best full length of the 2010s is still Tha Tour Pt. 1.

Young Thugs set last summer was stupidly good his voice is incredible if he hasn't done a live album yet he should cos that autotunes flattening so much.

I need to to go to more gigs. Or Dublin promoters need to book more contemporary rap for actual venues rather than support acts in the O2 and festivals for 17 year olds who can't handle their drugs. I don't even mind kids but they were tossing glass bottles in the air and ****.

MF DOOM and CzarFace are making an album together called Czarface meets Metal Face. And they've even released a song off it

New Nipsey Hustle feat Kendrick

Stab*City · 14-02-2018 1:51pm

Anyone listen to the Drink Champs podcast on Itunes? Actually quiet good.

Boom_Bap · 14-02-2018 2:09pm

Really like that Nipsey/Kendrick song.

Never listened to that podcast, for Hip Hop i listen to Joe Budden, Juan Ep/Rosenberg, Super Duty Tough Work and Combat Jack (RIP)

I probably have enough on my plate!

T. Hanks · 14-02-2018 2:46pm

Does Joe Budden make music anymore?
Last stuff I heard from him was that Slaughterhouse Album

Nope, he talks about being retired all the time. But there are exceptions, if SlaughterHouse come calling and want to record something new and there is one person that ever releases a diss track about him, he will fire back. He doesn't name that person though.
It's thought to be Drake, but Drake recently said some stuff in one of those new tracks he released, but Joe didn't see it as a diss.

Last year he was on a daily web show on Complex called Everyday Struggle, he left just before Christmas and there was some hoopla around it. But there have been a few things thought to be disses and some blatant ones. Vic Mensa has said some stuff in a freestyle, and Migos made a diss track and video about him.

Oh....there is apparently a shelved SlaughterHouse album as well that he has threatened to release a couple of times.

I watch everyday struggle its a bit sh*t since joe left.. Akademiks is such a lick arse.. lets on to be all about the artists but in fact just trying to get himself out there as much as possible..

Boom_Bap · 14-02-2018 5:21pm

I've grown to like Ak, and f*ck it, he was given a bigger platform so why not try to sell himself a little more

It's definitely not as good since Joe left. Star just keeps asking the same question on every subject and then likes to talk about having a concealed firearm permit.
Although, there is some stuff about Snoop bubbling from him, I'd like to hear more about that.

Another song from the upcoming Black Milk album

Digging it, not quite hip hop though.

Tasty new song from U-God with a few Wu lads featured.

Hearing great things about it, I have it on the phone ready to be listened to, but to warm me up I've been listening to the new Daz Dillinger album and YG.

Stab*City · 23-02-2018 10:53am

Production on it is something else.

It's savage!
Easily the best album of the year so far.

T. Hanks · 24-02-2018 3:04pm

Bangers everywhere in this album:D

I have listened to it maybe 10-12 times so far which is unheard of for me these dayz.. Best album Ive heard in a while. His raspy west coast vibe is perfect. Some of those basslines on the album are heavy as f$$k!!!
