Passion Of The Weiss 2018 Freshmen list

https://www.passionweiss.com/2018/07/10/pow-freshmen-15/

Foolio is kind of a surprise, the other stuff is whatever imo, they are hyping the shit out of g perico for some reason...hes boring

i dont mean the other stuff is whatever as in its all bad, some of its good just not surprising

Shoreline Mafia seems to fly under the radar, so I'm glad they spotlighted them. This track is nice:

before deej can chime in, yes it does sound a bit like keef

g perico is so bland

i dont really like shoreline either

felt old reading that list, didn't really like any of it...

sure are a lot of guns in rap music :/

PoW turning from a dilla derivative tribute site to a rolling regional thug playlist says ... something about these confusing times

what y'all think of allblack? he does a decent pac impersonation

so much 2pac in that voice yea. rememeber that rapper Tha Realest that death row signed after pac died that sounded just like him?

the new Keef album is really something! the piano ballads are really a curveball (in a good way)

enjoying the new Zaytoven-produced tape by Q Da Fool, reminds me a bit of an ATL version of another Q (Schoolboy)

Worl - Feelings

for backpacker stuff, the new Marlowe is great stuff

there's a new ka album out friday (as hermit and the recluse, a collaboration with animoss) and there's like no information about it at all online, aside from ka's twitter. not even a label (guessing it's self-released).

oh wow! super excited

chris crack my favorite of the year so far, this beat is so gooood

been listening to Jay Rock - Redemption

this dude is gonna end up being one of the most underrated rappers ever

for some reason that project left me cold, and I'm a huge fan of his. I still return to 90059 from time to time, that album is still awesome

I love Armand Hammer so much

gimmmmme gimmme gimmme that def jux dystopian shit

no dedicated thread for him, but :(

www.tmz.com/2018/09/07/mac-miller-dead-dies/

what the fuck

overdose--pretty horrifying how common these are becoming

these young kids...man...too sad

jesus :/

Shit, this is so heartbreaking.

man that sucks. thought he had turned it around.

I couldn't even name one song of his but every time we lose a young man to drugs it gets my blood boiling.

Next person who celebrates yet another song about slinging dope sipping lean popping pills must be really proud of themselves.

I'm not hearing a lot of bragging about drug use these days, more sadness about being trapped in it, or being trapped in a life where it's the only escape. And guess we'll be hearing more of that. But maybe I've not been listening to the same artists, idk.

it's not unusual for everyone in hip hop to tweet out RIPs, but the sheer amount of very heartfelt tributes and good feelings about him from all corners and generations of the game is pretty damn striking
