rolling mumble rap challenge 2017

Can't have a lil boat without water

Is there a difference between "mumble rap" and "coco yayo maco wacko no-fi schmoundcloud dooblebob vine rap thingy?" (idk how to hyperlink to that poll)

there are so many new rappers rn & so few of them get posted here it's kind of hard to create your own take cuz theres no taste chess w/ no opponents.

kind of feeling this one though

midpt between thug & 21

Thouxanban Fauni just dropped a tape I haven't had a chance to fully process but this record is cool & blowing up rn

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ysdf6F_8Nyk

XXXtenacion is blowing up & sure to be controversial, like if Uzi Vert was more into rock & raw emotional gut spillage & blown out death grips-ish aggro sonics

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmjpp0_6kb0

I have mixed feelings personally, not my usual thing, although the ballads can be touching

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhJKwHQ4sq8

There's also some controversy & rumors of him having a violent history

w/ women

also goes w/out saying but i like Lil Peep's "Girls" a lot

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hlSgENWCcU

liking all the new Dex records too

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qLhEhetm-k

old guy question: what's "footballs" slang for? (re: rico nasty)

oxycontin?

xans

rico nasty has a great natural charisma & likeability on those tracks. production is painfully lo-budge amateur. altho the samples were fun, as were the videos

"midpt between thug & 21" is so accurate a description of SahBabii that i had to turn it off. too soon

what's the relevant deej world of yung ppl opinion on peewee longway? i like this song

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3n07zNGOeg

Peepee was a Thug also-ran who never achieved liftoff but had some good songs c 2014, iirc

thug also ran? he doesn't really remind me of thug on that

who was that chubby super hardrock dude that never wore a shirt from detroit that deej was really big on then he went to prison? (like this was at keef's ilm peak era?) kinda reminds me of that

peewee has so many great tracks, couple from last year I was into:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKsMVj-esRk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWkPtLIF6zY

peewee more migos than thug

i just mean he came up around the same time, had 3 features on 1017 thug

i think he's gotten better since then

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeQgbHJcYHk

peewee was recording at gucci's with thug around the same time, "mr blue benjamin" is a great tape from last year but i thought the next one was a step down. he also got shouted out by LL Cool J.

m@tt is thinking of Yae Yae Jordan

yeah longway sinatra def not as good as MBB.

Yes, deej! Thanks that was driving me crazy, did I ever tell you I watched this "documentary" on Yae Yae on Amazon Prime that was mostly just unedited footage of them getting wasted in this shitty house and talking shit to the camera then one of his guys played Russian Roulette for real

no. that sounds depressing. i try to stick to the music

Yeah it was weird, like really unedited iPhone footage, but yeah uh they seemed like real street and not exactly the sharpest tools in the shed

https://soundcloud.com/sosamann/sauce-savage-21-savage-sancho-saucy-nard-b

classic sauce with a great Nard & B beat

i really like the new ab-soul a lot, it's grown on me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSPzVG7WPbA

Hadn't heard Perico before, he's good.

sounds good over those old beats

chris crack and vic spencer having fun

new album out soon

https://youtu.be/Rm3J5640jXo
anyone seen the new netflix doc? looks like something done many times before, but might become p influential wrt popular narrative

a four part series under the name "Hip-Hop Evolution"

aye

the SOB x RBE album, is huge. best bay release i heard since 'from the block too a lot'. hope they get hyped more

re: hip hop evolution, it's pretty transparently "we read jeff chang's can't stop won't stop and dan charnas's the big payback & made a doc series out of them"...but...like it's really cool to see all this footage of, for example, the fantastic romantic five vs. cold crush, or actually tracking down coke la rock to talk about the herc parties, it's a great watch either way and saw a lot of footage of stuff i'd read about but never seen

I don't know shit about Lil Ugly Mane (I know only marginally more than shit about the current rap world, but I digress) other than that he is from Richmond, VA and he gets compared to a lot of things that I don't have much time for under most circumstances. But when I saw that an album he released under the moniker Bedwetter, was the #1 album of the year at Rate Your Music chart (yeah, it's early, but still) so I checked it out.

http://liluglymane.bandcamp.com/album/volume-1-flick-your-tongue-against-your-teeth-and-describe-the-present

Apparently Volume 1: Flick Your Tongue Against Your Teeth and Describe the Present was accompanied by an impassioned Facebook post by Mane decrying this county's mental healthcare situation and how it failed him when he tried to seek help.

The album is pretty harrowing stuff, produced claustrophobically perfectly emulating a fucked-up hazy mental state, but with forcefully delivered words - like he's fighting against himself for clarity he desperately needs - with an eloquence and especially a vulnerability that, frankly, seems a complete contrast from the crap he gets compared to. It's like he realized nobody's hard enough to not need help sometimes, and that the inability to get it perpetuates a lot of bullshit. A very personal statement that points out, maybe unintentionally, how whole communities can be lost over our inability to deal with it.

Personal therapy that also critiques our current inability to deal with mental health issues as a society with a laid back noir style that makes me flex my head as well.

xps ums cool I'll check it out then!

got around to listening to the durk/tee grizzley tape and it fucking goes

yeah i like that

i also like the jadakiss/fab freddy vs jason tape

2 generations of workmanlike street rap formalists

saw a tweet that reminded me this project was really quite good for "boring" formalist street rap (not really boring)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dpyJR4sWnE

rolling boring street rap 2018

like the Travis Scott/Quavo on first listen

I always made a point of never listening to Travis Scott because there was this ding dong thread about him

xpost lol I would be totally on board with boring street rap

ALERT ALERT new scarface album, deeply rooted, is v v good ALERT ALERT

"deeply rooted" was released 2 years ago.
what he just released is "rooted the lost files", which contains outtakes and alternate versions of songs from deeply rooted.

my bad, that's all accurate. the outtakes are v v good.

i like the new, slight curren$y fiend record
vibes
