In response to Reply # 1


          

might have to check it again, because i was disappointed with the first run through. Ella Mai didn't hit for me neither and I had high hopes for that one too.

Col3trane had a couple of tracks i was feeling and that Sabrina Claudio got the usual bedroom vibes, it fits her tho. Knucks album is pretty great, especially if you're into UK stuff this is quality.

Method Man's Meth Lab 3 dropped as well. This series has not been Tical's best, but there are a couple of joints on this one.

I also liked Ibeyi's pot of gold (whole album not so much), SiR's new single was aight, the Dojo Cuts single with Carlton Jumel Smith was dope, Kota's UP was cool..

but honestly man, waiting for next friday/saturday releases.
Bunch of Big stuff dropping besides Kenny!

In response to Reply # 1


          

Maybe it came out last week? Showed up for me this week.

Anyways whatever this is I like it.

Sure they're stuck in 2003 and very influenced by Doom and Prince Paul - but still there are some quotables on it - and most tracks are mid to fast tempo, and they sound clever.

Example:

Fearless & Inventive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6zK3MrxNOM&list=OLAK5uy_lLRmEi2_lyMUIKj2G3GGzwJj8maVM55RM&index=9

They shout out IG88 and Dengar.
And Gary Numan's eyeliner.

Plus Kool Keith.

Short or short-ish albums released often.

Very much shouting out the zeitgeist or the near term nostalgic in the same way 90s hip hop did.

Focusing mainly on up-tempo and/or not excessively slow beats.

It's a throwback.

Hard to believe this group has been around nearly 10 years.

Yes, there's no "Boo'd Up" on here aka HIT single. But if you fuck w/ GOOD R&B then you should be playing this.

Albums wise? She 2 for 2.

Really just one song I don't like on it, "I Got A Shot"

Rest is good to really fucking dope. The joint w/ Pharrell crazy.

This cat is talented. My only (minor) gripe is that he rarely has any type of inflection or emotion in his delivery. His flow is exactly the same in just about every song.

But all in all, this album was real solid.

Singles I liked:
Kota the Friend - UP
Logic - Therapy Music
Elcamino - Better Than Love
SiR - Satisfaction
K.A.A.N - Audio Murder
Boldy James & Real Bad Man - All The Way Out

Singles worth checking out:
Rapsody - Dust to Diamonds
A$AP Rocky - D.M.B.
Doja Cat - Vegas
kizle & ElCamino - Rich Father

Not really liked the singles Rapsody has been releasing, the rapping is still dope but not a style that I really enjoy.

singles I didn't like:
Juicy J - Step Back
Lil Jon & Ghastly - Dance

Albums I liked:
Black Star - No Fear of Time
I do wish it was on streaming but I did like it. I need to go back and give it more listens. Songs I would add into rotation if I could: So be it, Sweetheart. Sweethard. Sweetodd., Yonders, Freequency and No fear of time.

IDK - Simple.
This guy keeps hitting on first listen. Hopefully it holds up on repeat listens. Only song I'm not adding to rotation is Dog Food which is the single. Its cool but I don't like it as much as the rest.

Col3trane - Lush Life
Never heard of him but this was pretty good. Adding most of it to rotation. Songs I'm not adding are: Take Notes, Plus Minus and Riley Freeman.

Worth Checking out:
Ella Mai - Heart On My Sleeve
This was solid but nothing great. I'm only adding How into rotation but I'm not sure that's staying.

Didn't really like/spotty:
Method Man - Meth Lab Season 3: The Rehab
Raheem DeVaughn - From Lust Till Dawn
Jack Harlow - Come Home, The Kids Miss You*
Bad Bunny - Un Verano Sin Ti

*I added Young Harleezy to rotation but not sure if it's staying.

Kendrick is the huge drop obviously. Stayed up last night to give it a spin. I'm a bit tempted to listen to it again next but I think I will check out some singles first. I'll also be checking out Leikeli47, Quelle Chris, The Black Keys, DJ Muggs & CRIMEAPPLE and ElCamino.

In response to Reply # 15


  

          

is my personal pick of the day. I'm hella biased, but it's also hella good.

Obv. already listened to Kendrick. I'm not sure what I think yet.
Gotta check Leikeli maybe Quelle Chris & Tank.

But ya'll should check Ricki's project.

In response to Reply # 15


  

          

excuse the delay

Singles I really liked
Kendrick Lamar - The Heart Part 5
Danger Mouse & Black Thought - No Gold Teeth
Mark Ronson - Too Much

Singles worth checking out
Big Gigantic, VIC MENSA & Mick Jenkins - Just the Same
Post Malone & Roddy Ricch - Cooped Up
Boldy James & Real Bad Man - Open Door

Kendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers
I loved this whole album. I did think it would be one that's best to listen to with headphones on but it hits in the car too. There may be some songs that I'm liking a bit less on repeat listens but nothing I would skip still.
Songs added to rotation:
ALL OF IT

Ricki Monique - Good Seeds EP
I really liked this. Shoutout to Hitokiri for recommending it. Not sure how well it will hold up on repeat listens but I don't expect it to fall much.
Added to rotation:
ALL OF IT

Quelle Chris - DEATHFAME
This was really good and definitely worth checking out. Might be the most I've enjoyed one of his albums. Still some songs I didn't love but some great stuff on it for sure.
Added to rotaion:
Alive Ain't Always Living
King in Black
So Tired You Can't Stop Dreaming
DEATHFAME
The Sky is Blue Because the Sunset is Red

The Black Keys - Dropout Boogie
I liked this. They're not really a group that's in my rotation but that might change. Definitely worth checking out.
Added to rotation:
Wild Child
It Ain't Over
Good Love
How Long
Burn the Damn Thing Down

Leikeli47 - Shape Up
This was pretty good. Not sure if it will hold up on repeat listens but I liked it on first listen. A bit different than what I'm usually into.
Added to rotation:
Secret Service
LL Cool J
Baseball
Hold My Hand
Instant Classic (Bonus Track)

ElCamino - Let There Be Light
This was solid but not great. I think the production was a slight highlight. If you're already a fan then you would like it.
Added to rotation:
Blind Love

DJ Muggs & CRIMEAPPLE - Cartagena
Mostly a miss. I like Crimeapple but he doesn't have a lot of replay value for me. The production wasn't bad but nothing special ethier.
Added to rotation:
Mermaids

Singles I liked:
FKJ - A Moment of Mystery
Lupe Fiasco - AUTOBOTO
Logic - Vinyl Days

Singles worth checking out:
Deante' Hitchcock - Callin'
Deante' Hitchcock - All My Children
John Legend - DOPE
070 Shake - Body

Skip:
The Notorious B.I.G. - G.O.A.T.

Albums
Snoop Dogg - Metaverse: The NFT Drop, Vol. 1
I was ready to hate this based on the name and with him removing the Death Row stuff from streaming. This was actually pretty great. Kind of Snoop at his best in the lane that works well for him.
Added to rotation:
Bad for Me
After the Party
I'd Rather Be with You
She's a Liar
I Really Wanna
Stormy Weather
Locs

Boldy James & Real Bad Man - Real Bad Boldy 2: Killing Nothing
This was really good. Maybe my favorite project of his. I still find his rapping of style a bit boring but it works well in most of this.
Added to rotation:
All the Way Out
Cash Transactions
Ain't No Bon Jovi
Bo Jack (Miller Light)
Sig Sauer
5 Mississippi
Seeing Visions
Killing Nothing

Mahalia - Letter To Ur Ex - EP
This was good. Worth checking out.
Added to rotation:
Forever
Letter To Ur N(ex)t

Buckshot - I Am The Boss
This was solid. Nothing great. Worth a listen.

Dreezy - HITGIRL
Not feeling this. The production might be as good as the Nas albums but the rapping was mid at best.

This was okay, not really my style but not bad.
Added to rotation:
COME AROUND
