Hip-Hop Thread II Genre • Page 32

He had that really good tape years ago and it left Spotify. I’ll check out his new one

 

Lost in NY is the name of it I’m pretty sure. Just wiped from his page

 

I started working my way through J. Cole album during my drive home from therapy (which I think is kind of funny). I’m only like a little more than halfway through disc one (or as he calls it…*sigh*…disc 29), so I don’t have a lot of thoughts yet, but I will say that I do not acknowledge a universe in which SAFETY isn’t great Hip Hop.

 

J. Cole album is pretty solid. Two Six, SAFETY, The Fall-Off is Inevitable, What If & Quik Stop have been on repeat for me

 

Could be a sticker on the physical album

 

Baby Keem album in a few weeks

08 Tubi [ft. Che Ecru]
09 Highway 95 Pt. 2
10 Circus Circus Freestyle
11 Dramatic Girl
12 No Blame

 

maybe that's not what the song will end up being but "no security" is a hilarious concept for a flex. no security over here either buddy!

 

those snippets for the album already have me even more excited for the Keem project. It’s also a perfect length and limited features. It’s what I like to see.

 

I am also insecure

 

Baby Keem's debut was one of the biggest surprises of that year to me, I'm actively excited to hear his followup

 

Honestly never heard of Lord Jah-Monte Ogbon before this week but As of Now is really, really good so far.

 

This Knocked Loose x Denz Curry song is real cousin-core

 

What does that mean? I googled it and it just brought up some tiktok fashion trend stuff haha

 

Like the cousin whose favourite rapper is Tech N9ne

Maybe it’s just my cousin

 

I wanna listen to this because it's produced by Evidence, but Crimeapple does nothing for me.

 

I can’t decide if Crimeapple is a good or terrible rap name

 

Feels like a pitch for a crap animated show that never makes it past that stage. Was a short that someone made in college and their friends liked it and said they should pitch it to various studios, but is actually a bit shit, so goes nowhere.

Or maybe i'm thinking about this too much.

Or maybe it's one of those shows that they skip past on the Interdimensional Cable episodes of Rick and Morty.

I need to get back to work...

 

Crimeapple is great

 

I finally checked out Biggie’s ready to die and life after death.

My unc coworker was talking about how good life after death was so I was pretty hyped but I felt like I enjoyed ready to die slightly more than I did LAD.

machine gun funk, suicidal thoughts and who shot ya are just perfect.

 

Brother how have you been listening to rap for this long without hearing a Biggie record

 

RTD is a better album in the traditional sense, but I’d rather listen to LAD most of the time

 

man I didn’t even listen to Tupac until last year lol I was just fine with the singles and popular songs from the 90’s and then I finally went ok time to listen to this stuff actually

 

Trying to temper my old head rage…
