i just thought it was a funny thing to think you have to point out! when i say "check for" an internet-only release it's basically because only 10% of the time I'm online am I actually at home and able to download or listen to music. but yeah, i like datpiff.

'general courtesy' wtf is this the ritztone thread now
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 23 April 2008 19:48 (sixteen years ago) link
The reason I pointed it out was cuz it's so readily available at the moment and I'm listening to it now. Hoos, don't you work at the Ritz?

lol ritztone
anyway i always thought currensy was only an okay rapper, his voice is pretty monotone and emotionless iirc tho i think he had a few good verses on some of the songs off of the og carter III leak

at least they actually wrote an article around the interview instead of a straight up Q&A. his last XXL cover story was the most incomprehensible and pointless interview I've ever read.

Guilty Simpson is prolly the second best hip-hop album of 08 so far after Webbie.

finally heard this guy on the Morgan State radio station the other night, until he said his name a minute or two into the song I kept thinking "is this Beanie Sigel? why is he rhyming over some tinny faux-Dilla shit?". no way can a rapper with breath control as pathetic as Webbie have the best album of the year or even the past 3-4 months, though. the album has a few jams but the guy couldn't ride a beat if it had handlebars and a bucket seat.

come to think i'm actually really liking this. dude over some of my favorite beats of the last couple years and he raps like he's a hip-hop head instead of hustler or a self-consciously insular wordy underground weirdo. it's like we grew up loving the same records and where i decided to write about it he decided to make it.

^this from a dude who loves the "make it rain" remix which makes about 8 katrina jokes
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 29 April 2008 20:32 (sixteen years ago) link
anyway it is distasteful but what's the point of complaining about the cover of a comp tape from some dude named "dj envy"
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 29 April 2008 20:33 (sixteen years ago) link
anyway what is on that w/r/t music-- old shit i imagine. anything newish worth while?

that cover is Luda, Rosss and (who the fuck is that? Yung Joc?) staging and intervention for Weezy.

um yeah it's great it's more or less new freestyles and mixtape cuts for about two thirds of it...I mean "new" as in the past couple weeks...it's a good roundup of pretty much every southern rapper that's hot right now

lol it does look like that....and yes thats Yung Joc
