rolling mumble rap challenge 2017

XD

"Tunnel Vision" is a little skimpy on bars but this is far and away Kodak's best hook yet

this was pretty good to me:

that's pretty good, i guess. just not my thing though

(xp)

if we're talking nines.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2PpLRjaWT8

J hus factor. nines barely rises above _pulse located_

he sounds more boring on that one but im a fan of guru i like monotone slickness it just means the writing has to be there

not really feeling the new fat joe/remy that much

i mean it's pretty good but feels a bit directionless

new Roc Marciano - Rosebudd's Revenge is some great #conservativerapcoalition bait, fucking love him

with him, Ka, Westside Gunn, Conway the Machine, Your Old Droog, Meyhem Lauren, etc it's a good time to be a fan of boring street rap, i'm living good

Vic & Chris have been killing it also

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

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=875OQCLt-q4

yeah they are great as well

deej i feel like i should check out g herbo, where to start?

m@tt, how is the new westside gunn tape?

vic/chris are the best. i posted that bacon vid upthread somewhere. new project out soon i think

W g herbo his new tape this year is his best overal project I think... "kill shit" from 2012 is a classic also

The new tape is called "strictly for my fans".

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

Gonna counter: "Strictly For My Fans" is good, but "Fazoland" is far and away his best project. That whole tape is sensational.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qCY7-FraQk

"I'm Rollin" from Ballin Like I'm Kobe is still my favorite thing he's ever done, though I haven't heard the new tape yet.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GE1VeZrFRwU

"I'm Rollin" is so good. 4 My Fans has some great standouts—the outro is fantastic—but I don't think any of his other tapes have felt as complete and hung together as well as his first one

beats on the new roc marci are meh...

agree

also there's a new starlito tape : https://starlito.bandcamp.com/album/manifest-destiny

Xxxpost
New Westside is good but really short, half is just instrumentals, more like a maxi single or short ep than a real tape

got it, i'll check it out

I listened to an interview w WSG and he said he has a project with Alchemist in the bag which I'm pretty stoked for so maybe this is a stopgap thing

too hard to find the curren$y thread w/o search - really like this -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOUSJkPy3BI

has anyone kept up w/ him? idk he put out soo much i kinda lost track and tuned out

watching the netflix doc now, it's decent, tho the jamaican influence seems all but omitted

This Joe Gifted & Frontstreet track sounds like Frank O going to ATL without Calvin Harris stepping in between. I kinda love it.

https://soundcloud.com/joe-gifted-1/water-x-joe-gifted-x-fronstreet-1

You can definitely hear his influences fading in and out of his voice, lol, but it's a good song and performance.

Hit alert!

the roc marciano album is good, but yeah sometimes the beats just seem off ...

also this is increasingly true, especially with dudes that are operating on a lower budget, but there's so many rap records now that just sound like shit, roc's vocals are mixed too low on some tracks, and could really use some EQing on others, like there's this whole generation of producers that really are just beatmakers used to sending ppl beats through dropbox and then getting a vocal track back, they don't really know how to make records like a dude like DJ Quik or Organized Noise or Timbaland or whoever....really frustrating, i remember some Your Old Droog track last year that was like jesus fuck did anyone listen to how hard these vocals are clipping for no reason?

yeah agree. i have my beef with the sound on a lot of the popular 808 heavy producers too. Probably why Mustard n them brought in Quik to finish YGs biggest hit, fill out the sound.

Counter point the new Oddissee album sounds fantastic
