When I saw that Deej found a way to mention Max B and his influential rhyme style, I let out an audible groan in this ramen restaurant

art of pretend non-thread reading

'vibe music' is a fine name as long as no one ever uses it in actual published work a la 'cloud rap'

open grind mode thread

Most of the Main Attrakionz stuff I've heard is p boring (altho I feel like that has more to do with them as rappers than their cloud-vibe), but this is a total banger:

imo it has to do with them as rappers & them as songwriters. and the one-note-ness of their approach to cloud rap

Yeah, otm.

I tend to dislike all rap mixtapes presented by clothing labels, as a general rule. Though Mishka does have some dope clothes.

I had no idea Mishka was a clothing label.

OOPS I JUST MAX BEED MY PANTS

Not to be Capn Save-a-Deej, but let it go.

is there an explanation of vibe music in this thread that i'm pretending not to have seen as deej says or is it in another thread as j0rdan says? i guess i'm just asking if it's a legit publicist-invented 'new genre' or just something that someone said on ilm and is now being parroted over and over

its ilx shorthand for talkin about the 6-7 songs that sound like grind mode / 'sensual seduction' so we dont have to type out all the words explaining that

one of my favorite songs is "shes so fly" by grind mode

I think 6-7 only really applied 3 years ago when we came up with the term. There's quite a bit more of it now.

Apparently, Surfboards coined it.

I don't think it's an ILX coinage, I've seen it called vibe/jook music elsewhere

lol I put "jook music" in on youtube and found this dope song:

Ok, u rite. This thread is from April '08: http://305hiphop.com/content/miami-jook-musicvibe-musicwhat-ever-u-call-it-its-here

Oh shit, that is dope!

Oh shit, that is dope!

is rap becoming a dense latticework of horseshit 'mirco genres' like dance and indie? gross

anyway, new Z-Ro album apparently dropping this week, anyone heard it yet?

There isn't a mainstream anymore, so p much.

al what is it called?

"straight profit"

what

the z-ro album is called meth

i was looking at this -- apparently it's a comp of old work with a label called straight profit records:

http://www.amazon.com/Straight-Profit-Z-Ro/dp/B0057OOQQ8/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1313967181&sr=1-1

"vibe music" was an indigenous term from the time iirc

oh i thought you were making a bad joke or something \(o_O)/

anyway gotta love the southern rap business

'meth' comes out 9/20

Haven't heard the new K.R.I.T. tape (and i found the last one kind of boring tbh) but i like this Three 6 homage he produced for Fat Trel

but i notice that they notice that i'm retro
i'm suttin nice, make all the men's legs go
weak, so why they all lookin tense fo'
i'm pretty sure that this beat will make you mental
you'll be saying lalalala, i be like let low
grab a bottle of champs and take it up and let go, let go
so get your lean on, get your krump on
get your jerk and your dougie and your runt on
the sun is turned on, imma get my shirt on
dip, flick, click - shurr stomp

there's something "shutterbugg"-like about the rhythm of that one, this one's more aggy

if you mean "the monoculture is dead"-type observations are completely tired and not at all worth trotting out like a piercing insight anymore then i agree
