islah is good

Yeah I think so too. Pretty much the ideal of what I was looking for from him

this is pure regionalism on my part but i take a lot of pleasure in his inclusive shoutouts to the darkest recesses of louisiana--"put work in ponchatoula and springfield," "in alexandria it ain't nothin to get it gone," etc

this is the strangest strangest thing

wow

and yeah this Gates is goood

HOW is this new 2 Chainz EP so good

Because he never really lost it even though he lost the spotlight for a bit?

yeah he's pretty consistent, for better and for worse. brevity suits him, though, Trapavelli Tre probably would've been as enjoyable if you shaved it down to 6 songs.

It's not about "losing it" w him, just that he sets expectations at a pretty basic level. These are really good songs, though

So what's the goon consensus on the latest hyped rapper lil yachty
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcKIIClndvw

few million plays on his soundcloud for "1Night"; cosigns from Ian Connor, A$AP Mob, Chief Keef, and—most recently—Kylie Jenner.

definitely sounds like post-keef warbling autotune music, minus the more mainstream aspects of keef's appeal, heavier on the bedroom syrup introvert parts

illroots just twitpic'd a photo of him in the studio with tyler, rocky, and madeintyo

cosigns from Ian Connor

im immediately suspicious!

haha

I'll have to check that but I Feel Like Cappin off that 2chainz is a blast.

whole 2 chainz ep is great front to back

"1 night" went viral and inspired all kinds of memes

this is def either an "i'm old" moment or a "lol, memes" moment

i feel like there are tons of kids doing this style but its not clear to me what about his shit stands out exactly

the new meek shit is extra tight IMO
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WwokOgwEkQ

2 Chainz EP is really tight, the first song is the best but yeah they're all good. He's a bit more subdued on it and he doesn't rely on punchlies as much (though they're still there obv)

Who was that weird kid from Sweden or whatever? Reminds me of that

Also Meek's generally played himself during this beef but "War Pain" is pretty hype

his whole new EP is good

i didn't think the 2 chainz ep sounded that good, his writing has def dropped off

hes almost certainly got a ghostwriter imo

Who are the big ghostwriters these days?

i know Key! did a bunch of stuff for people

there are lots of dudes tho

I appreciate that Meek specifically disses "Hotline Bling" in his song

fat mankey can barely write his own verses and he gets paid to write for other people?

King Mez wrote most of the lyrics on Compton I think, not sure if he's done other stuff

i dont really get much from his solo material but in what way is he 'barely' writing verses?

New Raz Simone tape is really good. Apparently he's signed to 300 now.

Bumped into this today; somehow missed it until today. Very fun.

want to reiterate that this album is amazing. wish it would earn 1/10th the interest of a half assed future mixtape but w/e

dig myself some albee al even if his best songs are remixes of older shit

but this new one w/ pnb rock is dope

^^ ulysses, nice find. I love all the 00s bay area stuff that was basically some looped bars of a classic electro track (yeah I know that one's kraftwerk but whatever), would make a sweet playlist actually. Mac Dre/Mac Mall - Dredio is the first one that comes to mind.

playlist is up to date.

Rolling ILM Hip Hop Thread 2016 Spotify Playlist

for grim NY street shit been digging Griselda Records/Fashion Rebels (Conway, Westside Gunn, producer Daringer), their twitter bios say Atlanta and now in Buffalo NY for some reason...somewhat down with Roc Marci I think?

Thought he had a stroke or something but I guess Conway got shot in the head and lived, crazy

oh that 2nd one is good.

the kevin gates album is really good

i swear deej was repping it itt?

"thought i heard", "hard for", "the truth", "ain't too hard" >>>

yeah it's good we were just talking abt it before the break

this 2 Chainz is so much fun

more rap EPs please!

Started a Kevin Gates thread

xp- average mixtape length going from >20 tracks to about 10 has been one of the best developments in rap the past couple years (what are the releases that set off this trend? was it future?) but yeah a lot of rappers that aren't high priority would get way more spins from me if they cut it even shorter

another new Boosie, sounds fucking great

http://www.audiomack.com/album/world-premieres/boosie-badazz

trae tha truth + young thug is such a great, contrasting pairing - their second great song together

i get the sense that "have your own hip hop beef with a member of the wu!" was a pack-in bonus with the price of the album
