Loving this new DRAM track

 

One of my favorite dudes, maybe the most talented guy I know. glad to see him find success after so much work put in and his new album is one of my favorites of the year.

 

DRAM track is fire as all hell. A$AP delivers as always.

 

Yeah Juicy J and Rocky were great choices for that beat

 

I stumbled across him because he's playing a show at a new venue nearby. I just listened to his album and it's really good. I may go check out his live show.

 

Go, he's insane live

 

Are you familiar with anyone else on the bill?
Chase Jordan!, So Much Light, Nnamdi Ogbonnaya - Tickets - The Dirty 30 - Dallas, TX - May 12th, 2017

 

Nope, I'm gonna go see him with So Much Light in Chicago but I haven't checked them out yet. Just go he's worth it, trust me

 

I'll do my best to be there. Thanks for the feedback.

 

Damn bro. Song is hard, and that beat is crazy

 

Magnolia song of the summer

 

I never bothered to look up what D.R.A.M. was an acronym for. Not sure what I expected lol. Digging that song, though.

 

I prefer dothatshit! but whole album bangs hard.

 

Agreed. I like it even. But I don't like it as a Yachty track, if that makes sense.

 

Once more: happy 25th birthday to Check Your Head #RIPMCA

Why The Beastie Boys' Check Your Head Is Still Rap-Rock's Greatest Masterpiece

"But until 1992’s Check Your Head, no one had artfully weaved hardcore punk, turntablist scratching, ’70s funk, ’80s rap, Biz Markie and Ted Nugent into a definitive statement — one that would have pointed toward the future of rap if it wasn’t so impossible to replicate.

It’s testament to the genius of Mike D, Ad-Rock and MCA that the late ’90s and early 2000s were glutted with bands attempting a similar fusion but invariably coming off like nookie-less fuckboys (Rage Against the Machine being the sole exception)."

 

This performance is top notch. Bet he gets big now.

 

The Earl show I was supposed to go to tomorrow just got cancelled :(

 

i am so mad about this! i was supposed to go as well :(

 

anyone else listening to the rich homie quan mixtape? Pleasantly surprised by it.

 

Its great

 

yup. really like the RHQ tape

 

I've listened to Scarface's Mr. Scarface Is Back today for the first time in many years and in hindsight this album deals with mental health a lot. Between all the violence there are countless cries for help.
