rolling gun sounds thread

these are my favourites in rough order of the tapes i've heard from the big list tpp posted w/ some others that weren't on it. i usually have a hard time keeping up w/ rap releases but i guess i've got a lot of spare time lately because i've heard most of them

yg hootie - flight to the motherland (weird that this is my favourite/most listened to bc in some ways it is kind of weak, but he's a really interesting rapper and i keep coming back to it)
raekwon - shaolin vs wu tang
squadda b - i smoke because i don't care about life
waka flocka flame - salute me or shoot me 3
killa kyleon - candy paint texas plates
gunplay - inglorious bastard
juicy j - rubber band business (thought this was last year)
young l - domo kun
mouse on tha track - swagga fresh freddie
travis porter - music money magnums
tity boy - codeine cowboy

some others i listened to briefly & didn't stick (trae, young dro) but might revisit. avoided gucci 2 times, still haven't gotten around to roach gigz, bricksquad, fiend, lil b

squadda b - i smoke because i don't care about life

gonna download

one song i wanted to share from that yg hootie tape is this one yg hootie - west hattnin which contains the perplexing lyric "i'm just licking and i'm gliding and i'm riding on the pussy niggas/i'm in the club on point & all my boys on point, we gone lick yo ass funk." so lol how it seemingly unknowingly pushes generic homophobia into a bizarelly aggressive threat to lick some dude's ass

oh and the project pat tape should be added to tpp's list, some great stuff on that

I <3 Spottie_Ottie_Dope

i smoke because i don't care about life

Is a bit good, spaced out, a bit freaky but man it sinks in after a bit.

Nice. I do have to say that going from all the visual puns during Wayne's part to none during Corey's just emphasizes how blah his part is in comparison tho.

that video is incoherent shit

gunz verse is an abomination

MAMA LIMA BEAN SURE THAT RHYMES MAMA LIMA MAMA LIMA

the gunz verse is all dazzle & no substance & that makes it worse than if it was some brain dead gudda gudda nonsense

i can't remember if i used this analogy before but it's like gob bluth doing magic on AD -- there's a bunch of smoke, but nothing happens

there's not even that much dazzle -- description applies more to minaj imo

Not to defend Gunz' verse (which I could take or leave - Jordan otm about all dazzle, no substance), but I never understand when rap fans get all up in arms about weird slant rhymes.

weird slant rhymes?

MAMA LIMA BEAN SURE THAT RHYMES MAMA LIMA MAMA LIMA

I notice this is something of a hobbyhorse Al has.

Not that he is the only one.

approximate rhymes are plentiful and inevitable in rap and are often inoffensive or even clever and creative. and sometimes they're really dumb, and the rapper chooses to beat you over the head with it by opening a verse with one.

that line as i hear it is "Word to ya mama/ahm outta mah lima/bean" and there's enough slurred inner-syllabic rhyme there where it never bugged me

yes that's what the line is; my post upthread was not a serious attempt at transcribing it

word to aunt jemima

the db tha general mixtape is weird

super frenetic

how old is dude? i can't decide if i think he's a good rapper or not

i like the young l tape a lot -- it has some filler but i think the stuff at the end is actually really good (barring "sex is dope") -- dude is pretty melodic as long as you have the stomach for autotune warbling

I was disappointed to find out "Murda" is a straight jack from the Boyz n the Hood soundtrack.

people liking squadda b/main attraktionz should dig mr sche

new one is classic mr sche, always pleasant

is he exhaling that whirlwind of musical equipment

the whirlwind of musical equipment, i exhale it

over time that line has gone from lolwtf to i think i honestly love it

Absolutely, good luck getting a physical of either.

how much does "once upon a time in america" by smoothe go for?

i have a CD of it in great shape.

Hadn't checked for a couple years, but it was going for around $50 then. looks like around 25 now. Not out of reach at all really, just more than I am willing to pay, especially since I already have mp3s.

Loving this song by action bronson, kind of a ghost face feel.

machine-gun samples kick in at 4:46

am i in the club yet pls

sorry, 3:46

sb is 31 days right?

does it always have to be rap?

oh, um wasn't addressing u sorry. wondering when deej/whiney's bans expire. checked & they were banned on the fourth, a month two days ago

oh please gawd, oh gawd please come back deej and whiney. we're not www wuwuwworthy.

have u heard the new rae yet? leaked last week

yeah I've heard it. have you?

Based on first impressions it seems good, solid. It's got that sound that makes those online wu stans wet themselves, if you go over to the wu corp forum you'll know what I mean. I haven't really listened all the way through properly, I keep coming back to Snake Pond, From The Hills, Molasses, Last trip to Scotland. It could've been more adventurous, but it seems a cohesive album (except rock n roll), I think Rae still got it on the mic though.

yeah i posted some on your anticipation thread Anticipate Raekwon - Shaolin vs. Wu Tang but i listened to it a lot this week & now think it's incredible. know what u mean, it's weird i remember after first getting so into 36 chambers & going into the solo stuff being disappointed at how so much wasn't as raw production-wise. i got over it & enjoyed a lot of great music as a result, but i would have flipped hearing this back then

love rae overdub on the intro here put money on this rhyme right here kung fu sample: ~they say he's a swordsman~ who give a fuck if he a swordsman i'm a gunman i run from nothin. love how his crime scenarios are rarely abt generic day-to-day drugdealer shit but constantly something exotic & incredibly dangerous or high profile flyin shooters i wear rugers stars & swords in front of the building, five thousands students or some shit like getting his aunt to mail him a rocket launcher from rwanda

id like to apologize to forks -- i dont really think hes an asshole -- the word 'bum' would have more effectively gotten across my opinions on a the-dream/pill heatrock

i still think al's public response was unnecessary but he & i talked it out 'behind the scenes'

fyi that ampichino track j0rdan posted is dope but it came out in '10

oh :-(

my top 10 traxx from while i was away (some may have came out before i dunno)

in no order

game feat jacka & mistah fab - im a king remix
keak da sneak - nappy head
cousin fik - water in the bo
tity boi - feeling you
styles p - why cry prod by alchemist
square off - goodfellas feat cory gunz
gucci/wiz - 2 timez
Dubb 20 Ft The Jacka & Mistah Fab - All I Know
dj quik - luv of my life feat. gift reynolds
waka flocka, slim dunkin, yg hootie - pole

also choppa choppa down remix if that counts since the video just dropped

the lucci / bohagan / twista track is cool but comparing it to 'rollin rollin rollin' was bonkers imo

also think the new roach gigz 'f a chorus' is lyrically better than most of the stuff on rb2

i like "water in the bo" but it just makes me think of "it puts the water in the bo or else it gets the hose again"

also the album no one has talked about on here is from Joe Blow & it's immaculately produced

really cool sheen to it. incredibly constructed album. his name is as generic as his raps, which isn't that bad a thing necessarily, in a lot of cases. you should be payin me and no gun are highlights but theres a lot of great stuff on there

yep really great production on this joe blow

checkin that boosie mix over at realniggatumblr, free boosie. http://soundcloud.com/walmer-convenience/plan-b-presents-boosie-thuggin
