    Ras Kas - Soul On Ice II
    Listened to a few songs of this, a few hit, a few miss. Will need to finish it off, but I got distracted by.....


    Mayhem Lauren and DJ Muggs - Members Only EP
    I was disappointed to find out this was an EP, but upon listening, I'm happy it is. 4 bangers.

    Lúi Pirata (AKA rawsoul) has dropped two tracks over the last few weeks.

    The first is a freestyle over Stromzy's "Vossibop" beat, the second is track called "Show Them All" produced by DJ Flip.

    Both are really, really good.

    Ghostface Killah - Ghostface Killahs
    I was suprised by this, really really good album, clocks in at 33 minutes which I love because it's dense, dope beats and great raps. Anything longer and it would have felt stretched.


    Conway the Machine - Look What I Became
    Just started listening to this, I already want to rob grannies and sell bricks wholesale. It must be good.






  • New Redman!

    If you're in the mood for something a little more soulful or different, try Sampa The Great - The Return.


    Great album, very impressed with it.

    The stretch and Babbitto documentary is on film 4 tomorrow night ,I really liked it

    Thoroughly enjoyed this, loved all the old footage. The fact they were able to get Jay-Z, Nas and even Eminem to appear in the documentary shows how significant their show was. Those 3 don't really do interviews.

    I've only listened to Little Sims' album Grey Area in that list and its pretty good. Selfish and 101 FM are my two favourite tracks off it. Only realised who she was after watching the new season of Top Boy as she plays Dushane's love interest.

    Some of the best production on a Kanye project in a decade.

    Lyrics also feature.......

    Selah, Follow God and Use This Gospel are great imo. Closed on Sunday decent too. Just try drown out the lyrics though. That said it's probably his weakest album by a distance and I was no fan of ye.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,563 ✭✭✭✭peteeeed


    Production is good, lyrics not so much
    'God is' is terrible


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,734 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    From what I've listened to, the production and mixing is amazing.
    But, I've heard Chance to Gospel rap before with the choirs, so that ain't nothing new.
    There are only so many words that rhyme with Jesus.
    I don't need a sermon.
    His words in interviews lately are just repetition of his lyrics. He never was the greatest lyricist, but on this, I don't even know if they are lyrics or not. At least he's trying to rap I guess, that was the positive when I started to listen to it.

    I can't wait til he starts worshipping Satan and his first album is called Hail Satin, Hail Satan.

    Loving Jesus is king. Kanyes best work in years.


  • Registered Users Posts: 727 ✭✭✭Muirshin Durkin


    New Apollo Brown album Sincerely Detroit is fire.

    One of the most underrated producers of all time, as consistent as Premo in my opinion.

    agreed


  • Moderators, Music Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 25,734 Mod ✭✭✭✭Boom_Bap


    Apollo Brown started out amazing, but I think he hit a lull for a few years and had the same formula for each track.
    Looking forward to hearing this new one though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,563 ✭✭✭✭peteeeed


    Earl sweatshirt releasing an album tonight, loved the last one

    Brother Ali released a surprise album today, produced by Evidence.

    So a bit of listening for the weekend ahead with that, EARL and GangStarr

    Thought the Earl Sweatshirt album was excellent. Really great. Weird murky dark quirky production. Very odd sonically but compelling to listen. Dark enough subject matter too but he just puts lines together so well. Few well placed features as well.






  • Brand new Game

    Album out 29th November

    Born 2 Rap

    Wiki released an album called Oofie last week and it's great. When I started listening I thought it was more of the same from Wiki, but the album transitions as it progresses and gets better and better.
    The song called Promises is amazing.


    Need to listen to the new DJ Shadow next.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,435 ✭✭✭weemcd


    Listened to the new DJ Shadow yesterday. First thoughts were the instrumental half was quite meh, not much of interest. The second half, with the MC's was much better. Some serious names there. I'll have to give it some more spins, but you got Nas, Pharaoe, INS, Ghost, Rae, De La, RTJ, Pusha T and others on tracks.

    Ah ffs Dre don’t be sullying your reputation with that gob****e :(
