What's new

Hip Hop Heads Thread

Lt. Boxy Angelman

I WILL EAT THIS GAME
There's no real innovation in the genre or desire to evolve the medium. Instead, they all suck their own cocks with an autotuner as a reward for discovering what an 808 is 30 years after the rest of electronic music.
The best sum-up I've heard in a while.

Give this man a cookie.

Really, though, who out there now is worth taking seriously who hasn't been around a long ass time as far as who's well known?
I know Kendrick is up there and a couple of others whose names escape me, but there are way too many people in the pool and only a couple of them can swim.

I will give impossible kid a honest listen today and get back with you. I guess I wrote off everything he did after he was with def jux and never payed much attention to him after that. I started listening to a lot of Canadian hip hop which was making music more in tune with the shit I liked at the time. Canada has some incredibly dope hip hop and I could recommend plenty of shit new and old from the various crews if your interested in something new.
I've watched a bunch of the King Of The Dot shows and I will fully cosign this.
Canada is no joke.

Yes please dude! Love me some Canadian tunes, they’ve been all over the electro scene for a while now.

Oz music is hot rn too, at least prog/metal wise.

Always on the look out for new stuff, but age has stolen my patience for trawling the seas of ubiquity.

Some of my favorites last year
Smino - Maraca

Smino - Father Son Holy Smoke

GoldLink - ROUGHSOUL

ILLA J - Sam Cook

Topaz Jones - Tropicana

If you enjoyed these, I HIGHLY ADVISE YOU to check the channel Colors. LOTS OF underrated international talent on there. It has a little something for everyone.
That illa j song was nice. Kinda easy listening which isn’t always a bad thing... time and place for this for sure.

Not what I was expecting after the first 2 (just different lol).

You should def start with Factor Chandelier. He does a lot of good compilations featuring lots of good artists mostly from canada but a lot of old school west coast people. He did just put out a new project like last week but I don't know how I feel about it. You should check out "Factoria" "13 Stories" and "Lawson Grahm" all showcase a bunch of different artist.

@x TeeJay o
LOOOOOVE Anderson Paak and Kaytranada! Anderson is new but he brings a particular kinda smooth, funky rhythm to his style.

And Kay....maaaaan he's on a whole other level with his beats. Been on that GLowed up! That shit knocks!

I want to shift gears for a minute because I believe this should be a good topic of discussion. Kanye West.

We've all heard about his antics lately and his whole "I LOVE TRUMP." stance.

To all my people who LOVE Hip Hop, what do you guys think of his antics? Should we really care as a people since he has influenced so many young kids and the Black community? Mr. "Bush don't care about Black people." then ALL OF A SUDDEN he loves Trump who is 100 times worst?

Let's have a REAL discussion :)

The man is a ass. Always has been. I've met him when he did a concert here in Toronto years ago. He gased up. Feeling himself like Oooouuuu. Off putting in a non "yeah you made it" kinda way.

But his views on Trump is the truth I guess and it's generating buzz for his shit to drop so the more he says controversial things to people who never really paid any sort of attention to him before his support of Trump. The more his albums gets sold.

Ain't no different then the 50 cent beef close to a decade ago when he put his album up against 50.

Gotta see the forest from the trees Beezy. Nothing more then stunts to produce dollars to THOSE who DON'T buy any albums. To THOSE who support Trump. And all the rest you can peace together.

You know what's funny too. Listen dun.

You see... ALL dem other artists saying fuck Trump right. You see them. I guarantee you brh that he will out sell all of them easy already. Not because he's saying shock value tings that would raise an eyebrow. Nah. Because his fans already goona DL the album already so he's gonna get something. But what HE NEEDS is those people who don't. Those people young and old and those on the fence to hear what they think or might say in the album.

Unlike ALL THE OTHER ARTISTS who already said their peace and know how they stand with the popular and general public.

You see it now.

Don't get puzzled by the words he's spells.

My brotha, my brotha Uncle JBeezY certainly knows how to read between the lines. It is obvious he is doing this for attention and to gain sells on his next projects. Kanye has shown that he is very self centered, self absorbed, and selfish. I am a true believer in when a person SHOWS you who they are, believe.

My problem with Ye doing THIS type of fuck stunt is the fact that he's playing with dangerous territory because people are actually dying out here. And the fact that he's using the whole Trump thing to be controversial to generate attention and sells is at an all time low. He's always been shit, he will forever be shit. He's NOT gonna change POC's minds to love Trump, so he's only hurting himself. Let that sorry negro jump off the bridge with the whole Kardashian family. THROW EM ALL AWAY!

Will we listen to his music? OF COURSE! BUT will we buy his shit? HELL NAW!

I dont understand how some like Kanye can say live on television that George Bush is a racist and then years later tweet his support for a known racist in Trump. Maybe those tax cuts for the rich got him singing a different tune.

Half of me saying hes trolling the fuck outta us and the other half of me is saying hes too damn rich to even care about Black folks.

There's nobody in his life to pull him back and let him know about himself. His mother was the last woman to set him straight, now who does he have. The Kardashians? Caityln? HA! Nigga please...

He's trolling dawg. Yeah he puts material and a few tracks are aight but I don't pay any attention to what he has to say. I mean he's with a Kardashian for Christ's sake and names his younglings after cardinal directions. Someone like that is too real for me.

Like I said. He's a ass. Talented but an ass.

So the ?Question? is, would you still support Kanye, his sneakers, clothing, and his music ?Question mark?

Mr. Righteous
Ye has lost his muthafuckin mind! Full interview on TMZ here! Do you really feel hes free thinking but said the wrong thing? Are you still 4 Kanye or just wanna throw him away?

BUMPITY BUMP!

Now HIP HOP is the major topic of discussion today. What do y'all think of Drake VS Pusha ?Question mark?

Petty af and they’re not GOAT enough to get away with that like Hov and Nas were. Shit is pure cringe.
I mean, duh. BUT everytime i listen to Story Of Adidon, its like layers and layers are being unraveled about Drake's secrets and shade. Push talked about Drake's Dad, his mother, his porno baby mama, his son, and his dying best friend. Oh these niggas just need to fight now!

It’s the plot to a fucking soap opera. They’re more likely to sleep together than fight at this point.

lol what? you sound like an elitist or something dude - pusha t and drake have been dissing eachother in tracks for ages now. its a competitive thing and hip hop used to embrace this competition, why are you trying to sway away from it? these back and forth one-liners, between drake and pusha in random album tracks, had always been about lyrical skill and penmanship until drake brought pusha's family into it out of nowhere and now pusha t just destroyed drizzy, dismantled his whole public image in front of everybody.

if you think that's just "petty" and that pusha shouldn't clap back to drake insinuating that pushas wife is cheating on him i gotta question your manhood dude lol. like you wouldn't want to throw hands at someone if they said some shit like that to the love of your life? would you sit idly by and let a guy say your sister is a slut and a whore? if you honestly think after that AND pusha t ousting out drake as a deadbeat father while attaching it to his upcoming adidas line (called adidon) effectively ruining his brand and potentially costing him millions that "theyre more likely to sleep together than fight at this point" you are DELUSIONAL.

i can literally use your weird ass circular logic and say no vaseline was petty too.

too long didn't read but you know my shits a strawman? you're probably a troll or actually this self-absorbed. if defending your wife is petty feels bad 2 be you, johnny CUCKED cage.
Oh man he did such a good job defending his wife against dude with MS lol. I didn’t even think such dick-riding fanboyism existed this side of his mediocre solo career but holy shit, the only thing he seems to be “pushing” any more is your stool in. I’m flattered you made a whole account just to hop on my dick in honor of your man there, Virginia, but Jesus fucking Christ if this is how hard in the paint you go at someone who doesn’t give a fuck about either of them I can’t imagine how triggered you’d get at an actual Drake fan lolol.
