Fair enough. I feel like Gucci's output the last 2 1/2 years has been among his best work and guys like Young Thug & Rich Homie Quan are lighting a creative fire under his ass and giving him the confidence to experiment more.

I like it. Not as much as Marcberg or Reloaded, but for a mixtape I think it's above average. Marci Beaucoup is what I'm struggling with, can't get into it at all.

I actually study these guys. There's practically no content, it's nonsensical and free-associative but the flows are pretty ridiculous (in a good way).

Agreed. Too bad he's been blacklisted by pretty much everyone. You should check out STH 0: Rezzurection if you liked this, I think it's on DatPiff oddly enough.

A more lyrical/thoughtful A$AP Mob? Two emcees, one from New Jersey and one from Milwaukee. Very well put together. You may enjoy this.

Read a review that called it a "bonus DVD" for Yeezus and I think that's fairly accurate. Love the beats, can do without his raps. Some of the songs have that industrial vibe to them that I think is pretty cool. More interested in where he goes as a producer as opposed to his solo career, but this is a pretty cohesive record for what it's worth.

I think you would really enjoy this.

For sure. Tons of replay value for me.

Look out for this kid. Feels heavily influenced by the early 90's grunge rock movement. Equal parts Slim Shady LP & Nirvana's Nevermind. Interesting project. Charles (Hamilton) pops up as the only guest feature, but his verse is obviously freestyled and is kind of a throwaway.

I recently got put on, but this tape has been in heavy rotation over the past few weeks.

It's hit-or-miss, honestly. Too many songs. But the ones I love (about 8 or so) I really, really love.

>>Vic Mensa - INNANETAPE

>Might be better than Acid Rap

Still need some more time with it. I think Acid Rap may have higher highs but this could very well be a better complete listen. Also has the only Ab-Soul verse I liked in 2013 on it, which is kind of sad because I thought Soulo had a great year in 2012 and has yet to follow up with anything I've really felt.
