True. Crazy this was almost 3 years ago

 

Chicken & Waffles, Limoncello and Long Fall are all super dope too. Hope he hits us with a hip hop release soon

 

They replaced him as a host on Q Radio so I wouldn't be surprised if he was working on something or near finishing.

 

Apparently DRAM sold like 2,500 albums first week. Is that right? Didn't even chart but that's surprising

Edit: nvm I'm seeing 18k? Not sure

 

I think it'd be way higher solely because of the huge amount of Broccoli streams, like a Hotline Bling situation. Really doubt that 2,500 number.

 

probably 2500 physical 16k from streams

 

Cozy Tapes is real good, Nasty's World is fucking awesome. Never really heard anything from Nast but he killed that song. Only song I didn't like is Runner but that's because I don't like Lil Uzi Vert.

Is the first A$AP Mob tape worth a listen? I never got around to it


Also the new Sean is good but I've actually always liked him

 

yeah I was really enjoying the cozy tapes when I checked it out earlier today

I'm really curious on who produced some of the beats because they sounded great.

 

The first tape is not worth it at all

 

Juicy J produced a lot of it according to this interview with Rocky

A Conversation With ASAP Rocky About Making ASAP Mob’s ‘Cozy Tapes’ Without Yams | Genius

Good to know. Why is it not worth it iyo? Are the songs just not good?

 

I'm cleaning up my iTunes library and I keep finding freestyles, tracks and even full projects by rappers I legit don't remember

 

These are old posts, but only you can prevent forest fires. Don't want classic art to be forgotten? Watch it, listen to it, recommend it, talk about it.

 

Forgot about this. Need to revisit.

 

They didn't have much of a direction, promised it would come out a million times and then just threw it together last second. Plus there's not enough good ASAP members and instead all the weed carriers get a lot.

Cozy Tapes I haven't heard yet but I read an interview with Rocky and he was really trying to honor Yams vision

 

Got to teach Vince Staples and Kendrick in class today. Sometimes my job is cool.

 

i hate this guy

 

this is good though my friend dylan brady produced some of this

LIsten to lil aaron's Debut EP 'GLOING PAIN$'

 

Lol it took me a few seconds to realize you didn't mean they were your students

 

Anyone listen to Topaz Jones?

 

G-Dep’s “Special Delivery: ” 15 Years Later | Passion of the Weiss

Awesome.

 

The f stands for for Pete's sake

Lil Wayne Distances Himself From Black Lives Matter: “My Life Matter” | Pitchfork

 

Why is Wayne getting primetime interviews on ABC in 2016? Maybe I'm out of the loop, but is he really all that relevant right now?

I realize that he's still probably one of the few rappers that Nightline viewers would recognize, but still.

 

He wrote a memoir

 

So yesterday I listened to Ready to Die for the first time(i know), and it's amazing obviously. Love how I caught a lot of references that modern day artists quote or allude to in their albums. Gimme the Loot is my instant favorite track off it.
