dude should sign Earl Sweatshirt tbh

and we all know that rap is selling just like it was in 2003!

my prediction is it sells decently but his music takes a nosedive in listenability

i think if em stays hands off and lets Yela keep doing what he's doing, he'll be fine.

Slaughterhouse actually has some dope rhymes, and will absolutley benefit from Em/Dre/Aftermath production. could really make a dope album. [Caveat: I live in New York]

thats pretty depressing to think that yelawolf is probably just as popular as slaughterhouse

who the fuck is going to buy a slaughterhouse cd

the problem w/ slaughterhouse isnt even the approach but the nature & aims of their entire project

erm isnt even the raps ... its prob is very much the approach

slaughterhouse is more popular than yela fwiw ime

i'm happy for yela and don't nec think it'll hurt him creatively, but this'll def lead to a lot of "compare the white rapper to the other white rapper" comparisons

Yelawolf has at least star potential, a group of has-beens and also-rans will never be a serious commercial force

and yeah I agree that signing with Em is a bad idea, at least in the sense that it probably doesn't give him any edge in terms of mainstream breakthrough he didn't already have, and now sets up a whole narrative that he'd wisely managed to avoid before

how the hell is universal planning on turning a profit off of slaughterhouse

are they gonna put rivers cuomo on their songs

ha

challop time: u know what is better than jcole's 'who dat'? the friday night lights mixtape

kinda nice in an MOR boring way

boring is even too harsh. mor for sure tho

what are the chances this is a jacked max b track

probably the same chances that lil wayne's new single was written by gillie da kid?

i dunno id believe the hook is a bite. unlike w/ gillie the kid jim jones owns all the masters to max b's pre-arrest work & rumor is hes been using unreleased max b material to fuel his own career (raps are quite obviously his tho)

the whole style of the song, that smooth stoned vibe, is totally max b-esque

oh yeah i forgot about the thing about jim still owning some of his tracks, i guess he could still be doing that.

good track. rell's hook is great (even the annoyingly overcensored tv version).

freeway, statik selektah, husulah & jacka

in this thread deej & some dude find common ground

lol @ joe budden, nice hat dude

they should just go ahead and make jimmy iovine the guest EIC for that issue

have you heard of this guy named spider loc? well he's a three page feature!

does anyone on the cover of that damn mag ever wear anything w/ remotely any color
or is there some kind of requirement that they be dressed predominantly in black
i swear its the rap goth mag

are they in the middle of installing a Dan Flavin at a chelsea gallery or something

This is getting played on the radio here. Not that great but cool E-40 verse.

Really feeling this Mouse on tha Track tape.

the new db the general tape is real good. a lot of yall will prob be feelin it. i feel like hes def a 'has potential' dude, in terms of his actual rapping, but he def stands out on a lot of this stuff

like, atypical beat choices, or when they are typical (like his 'shes strange' sample track here) he has a diff spin on it

whats it called

really liking this one w/ d-lo & an eazy e hook
