(Aka Terence Nance of An Oversimplification of Her Beauty and HBO's Random Acts of Flyness).

I'm digging this one a lot.

I just wish it didn't have the same voice-overs used in An Oversimp, which I just watched again recently.

It's good if not a little slow.

This is the type of music I exercise too - if it was just a bit faster.

They have a lane and are just staying there.

Blackbraid is some high quality NDN black metal
The video for Sacandaga is pretty ill

Elephant Man's Bones has some gems. I kinda feel Rocky lost a step or maybe doesn't sound as special with actual drums, but there are like 6-7 very good songs on the project.

About to check Black Vladimir right now. Just listened to the Members Only EP w/ Muggs that was very solid, got back on the Meyhem train

No skips, strong rapping and production, honest and open.

Don't sleep.

i think his style can get a bit hectic for me but this album is good.

His best stood out.

Some of those other “modern” beats that all sound the same brought things down for me.

I don't know why he isn't talked about more. One of the best rappers on the planet

all the things I did where I listened to music (gym, walking, riding my bike), I haven't gotten back to doing. So much stuff I haven't listened to yet...including Kendrick, Lupe and Black Thought. SMH.

some big names (relatively) but not much good outside of that. august has been the biggest month since kendrick dropped. shouldnt take much time to get caught up.

.

>all the things I did where I listened to music (gym, walking,
>riding my bike), I haven't gotten back to doing. So much
>stuff I haven't listened to yet...including Kendrick, Lupe and
>Black Thought. SMH.

It'll come. And the jams will be there for you.

Lupe and Thought delivered a plethora and barrage of raps and fun is there to be had.

With the Kendrick, the breakdowns are already out there so you should have less 'decoding' to do. And, not surprisingly, its another grand showing for that guy. I might not be the right one to ask because I'm a sucker for context and artists like him who go out of their way to give people something...I don't know...something that comes from an 'honest' place. AKA he's not showing up with what is hot and just that. There's not a huge market for rich dude/elite rapper therapy sessions. I mean, it kinda worked for Jayz hinting at doing it on 4:44 but that was forever ago and IT WAS JAYZ. And it was after Lemonade. But on the other hand, people are amazingly tired of Kanye so hey.

and I know what to expect from him: excellence. Same with Thought. Kendrick...I've been trying to keep any mumblings about it out of my ear. I didn't even go into that Kendrick post on here. I want fresh, untainted ears on that one.

very light week singles wise for me. only 4 caught my eye and i couldnt find one of them

Skip Marley f. Ayra Starr - Jane
Danielle Ponder - Only The Lonely
Hope Tala - Leave It On The Dancefloor
Djo - Figure You Out
RAYE - Black Mascara
Lolahol - Lock&Key
Barny Fletcher - Backstroke
IDK - Free Slime
Bob Moses f. Kasablanca - Afterglow
Spice - Tape Measure
Laufey - Beautiful Stranger
Rina Sawayama - Phantom

I had not seen the IDK one

Only one I liked that I have checked out is Ezra Collective - Life Goes On

I really liked:
Skip Marley - Jane
Hope Tala - Leave It On The Dancefloor
IDK - Drive
IDK - Free Slime

I liked:
Danielle Ponder - Only The Lonely
Djo - Figure You Out
Barny Fletcher - Backstroke
Bob Moses - Afterglow
Laufey - Beautiful Stranger

i used to share my weekly Spotify playlist of new shit on the boards but stopped because:

a) no one really engaged so i just assumed no one cared

b) i got lazy and stopped updating EVERY week. it fell off to like every other, or every 3. i'm getting back to weekly now though

i really just use it as a way to keep track of new music on a personal level, plus a few personal friends/relative use it to hear new shit too.

on social media...

Personally I'm not impressed, I'm sure Jay fans will eat it up...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7xggLO-sSk

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QugLZCp74GE

but, listening to it...it sounds lazy af. He's just saying shit with half effort, that rhymes.
