new rakim produced by just blaze

if you're into that sort of ting

which i def am

i know plenty of juno and arcade fire loving 19 yr olds who get pissed when i play (mostly rap) music at party

wtf do these dudes wanna be like "funeral is my jam" or what

their "dance party" playlist has "rebellion (lies)" so YES

Do they dance like stereotypical "white people"?

holy shit @ new 3-6 single

leavin the club kinda early cuz she gotta go to work

jyeah

o i was wondering why no one was repping 'all that money' on that dro thread, why u gotta run over here sarge

song is glorious anyway. i was always gonna like it as a trend but it's really great how rappers seem to be hitting exactly the right summer wistful/cynical note with it most times

(also "on some top 3 singles of the year" strikes me as a completely weird personal barometer but nm)

(also "on some top 3 singles of the year" strikes me as a completely weird personal barometer but nm)

the thought "this might end up being one of my 3 favorite singles of they year" entered into my head idk. is that dro on the hook? no right? i wish though that would be awesome. i guess it reminds me most of 'sensual seduction' in terms of feel, minus the whole t-pain business.

i didn't rep for it on that thread bcuz that thread is embarrassing and i didn't want to bump it

i thought the mixtape was just aight but people are really talking it up so i'm gonna listen to it a few more times

if he releases it as a single i'd be shocked if it didn't make it into the top 10 of the hot 100

thread is classic it just takes like an hour to load cause of all the huge DRO_PINK_CAPRIS.jpegs

it's at the very least a time capsule of what i did during my insomniac period this summer

that being screen-cap young dro outfits at 4 in the morning

the 3-6 is top too, i needed 4 of the 5 minutes before the epicness really set in but yeah whoa

really like young buck n boosie (been missing a classic g-unit skanker): http://www.zshare.net/audio/791566

and this random ca$his banger hits a spot also: http://www.zshare.net/audio/7387980c1a41e5

that buck/boosie link is nuked

http://www.zshare.net/audio/7915669ce39acc buck got chomped soz

yeah sorry sarge, i cosign any and all screencapping

starting a trina thread now, probly see yall back here to discuss it

Shawty Lo album leaked earlier this week...it's actually really good, much better than, sayyy, Gucci Mane's album, probably Webbie's (haven't heard it, did that leak yet?)

i like some of it a lot, have trouble listening to dude for a whole rec tho

damn gotta hear

"Let's Get It" is fantastic

lol that boosie verse on the young buck song is really a SKINNY DUDE ANTHEM

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=75885093

bledsoe is fucking great, came out in 07 but i didnt hear it til now

have trouble listening to dude for a whole rec tho

^ yeah this, can't get past the first 6 tracks. good 6 tracks tho.

the webbie's out (havent heard properly)(haha jordan otm ages ago about how impossible it is to spell out 'independent' tho) but i'm not sure either will be better than gucci mane's for what that's worth. (not all that much tbh.)

some parts of this Carter III preview have me pretty excited, like "Wayne's singing isn't just a run through the T-Wayne ProTools patch, it's chopped up and layered over itself in a dense, alien collage" and 'Hollowed-out and bleepy."

http://www.blender.com/Exclusive-Previewing-Lil-Waynes-Tha-Carter-III/Blender-Blog/blogs/1168/18751.aspx

yeah ^^^this but i'm forever holding out hope when it comes to wayne + vocoder

on that fabo/juelz song that was making the rounds a couple of weeks ago i thought he sounded like dying jeff conway from celebrity rehab but i guess sounding like he's dying would be his goal wouldn't it

forgot to say i'm sure that is dro singing on that tune, would kinda destroy the whole thing for me in my mind if it wasnt.

yeah i really hope it is but i couldn't tell bcuz whoever it is is singing so softly

you talking about "All That Money"????? cuz that is definitely dro on the hook

RS: Are you still working on your album?
T.I.: Absolutely. It’s called Paper Trail. It’s going great.

RS: How many tracks do you have done already?
T.I.: I’ve got about thirty-some tracks done, but I’ve got like sixteen that I’m in love with and I’m still working. After you get those sixteen, you try to make sixteen more to top them and you pick the best.

RS: Who have you been working with?
T.I.: I’ve got records with Danja, I’ve got one record so far from DJ Toomp. I’ve got records from Little C and Keith Mack from Grand Hustle Productions, and records from J.R. Rotem and Jay Rock. Quite a few people.

RS: Do you have a sense yet of how this album is going to be different from the last one?
T.I.: I don’t know if I can put into words how it will be different from the last album, but I know you’ll definitely be able to tell the difference. The people who I’ve played it for, they say it reminds them a lot of the earlier albums I’m Serious and Trap Muzik. It’s called Paper Trail because for the first time since my very first album, I’m actually writing the lyrics down, pen and pad, old school style. I used to just listen to the music and go in the booth and rap. And now that I’m writing things down, I think it’s a little more eloquent.

RS: What made you decide to start doing that?
T.I.: People were saying how they missed the old sound, they missed that I’m Serious T.I., so I figured that I would try to tap into that element.

serious t.i. is serious

only a scant several weeks late to the discussion but

they buy the bar too, they superstars too
they be like you ain't got no money, take your broke tail home
baby phat they own, they clothes match they phone
they be like YEEAAAAAH when they song come on

^^ making me really happy these days

tips album was sposed to be 80% toomp >:[

gff be like YEEAAAAAH when his song come on

honestly if Toomp's work on the Jay and Kanye albums is representative of what he's doing now maybe T.I. doesn't need his beats that bad.

gff be like YEEAAAAAH when his song come on

^^ true!

the rest of the dudes on the song have this offputting vibe like they like girls with their shit together SOLELY because they don't have to do shit for them, but then boosie shows up with this genuine beavis-y excitement of being out somewhere and getting in with a bunch of 30 y/o women all dolled up on girls night or whatever!! it's great.

im telling you the best part of that whole verse is the BYE GUHL in girl voice ad-lib

toomp had one of the 2 or 3 best tracks on t.i. vs. t.i.p. imo

K. Sanneh reviewing Lil' Wayne Sunday night in Newark... an excerpt-

“Even bobbleheads tell me yes, yes,” he rapped during “You Ain’t Know,” and he liked the image so much that he giggled instead of finishing the verse.

During one of the astonishing a cappella rhymes, he announced, “I get menstrual/I bleed through the pencil.” And when time came for “Gossip” — one of the few current Lil Wayne tracks that can legally be purchased at iTunes — he snarled the verses (“Don’t believe in me, don’t believe me/I graduated from hungry and made it to greedy”) and then turned girlish to lip-synch the chorus, based on a sped-up sample of the Supremes’ “Stop! In the Name of Love.”

Toomp didn't have any tracks on T.I. Vs. T.I.P. (the only producer that had 3 songs on the album was Danja, and if that's who you mean, then I agree).

yes danja it is

can't stop laughing about Bloggarina P's latest rant:
