futuresex/love sounds was ill. timbaland totally forgot how to make beats like that. some of justified was lit too, only because of him working with the neptunes.

Edit: @goldhawkstar, no it was at UT Austin. it was cool man, he was pouring up champagne in plastic solo cups and talking to sorority groupies haha. i didn't really have a conversation with him but i just gave him daps and told him i fucked with his wave. i didn't get a pic with him saved on my phone, but i got a snapchat when he jumped into the crowd (the stage was some jump off shit that pledges probably made and was set up in the middle of a small basketball court) and started wilding out during his performance.

Pssh. Those sorority groupies probably wanted to fuck him so bad. They're so quick to give pussy up as it is, but when it's for the fame...

What do you mean you gave him 'daps'? Like you gave him respect?

Fun fact: I thought Timbaland and Justin Timberlake were the same person until a month or two ago.

Yeah acid rap was good, but not as amazing to me like everyone else claims. Now Days before Rodeo is a classic for sure. In terms of dudes like flocka I like him because he can really set the mood right on a friday night you riding in a car or at a house party. Peeps don't want to here K.dot, logic, some J.cole etc.

I like Madlib and he segwayed me into learning more about J.Dilla(RIP) productions. All smooth timeless hip hop. I'm going to check out Que and see what's good. I may get some flak for this, but has anyone listened to the new ross? I downloaded it but haven't had a chance to listen to it. Also anybody listen to that new Cudi yet?

Hahahaha fuckin Rozay. He's such a goofy wannabe gangster who takes himself too seriously. He's way too easy to make fun of.

I'll give him this, Black Dollar was good.

Goldhawkstar wins for making this thread. Time for some more modern hip hop to be posted in here.

Wow Rosca why the fuck do you listen to Young Thug? He wears skinny jeans and is the total opposite of an alpha male. THIS ISNT REAL HIP HOP DAMNIT TURN ON IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE

[coverdoc]

^^^ Actually one of my favorite thugga tracks. Thief in the night is also pretty good too. I went on a date with this german med school chick. She had just found out about the song. Her and her hipster friends swear to god it's poetry haha.

HWE GOT LONDON ON THE TRACK

Rosca you pumped for London Boomin?

Everyone, I've been on Flockaveli 1.5 since Monday. You don't know what you're missing. Party mixtape of the decade, no question.

You can't beat blasting this in your 2007 car in a white neighborhood going to the grocery store.

Just finished listening to Que's album/mixtape. It's fucking good man. I went in thinking we was going to be another atlanta trap rapper fuck your bitch pop bottles. Now he definitely is haha, but he has flow man. He captured that classical trap feel, especially with producers like London on da track. I also like how versatile each song was, some slow with mellow beat, others that standard trap beat. His voice has that southern gangsta grittiness you have to love. Also like how he raps like he's talking at times, like Trouble, makes for good choruses.

I liked every track but two(Vampires & Gucci says), so this is definitely a great album in my opinion. I'll be listening to it on repeat all weekend. Oh the ninja looks like Jodi breeze too haha.

Ha, I can completely understand those two, and it's funny because the HNHH comment section was having a circle jerk over Gucci Says when this tape came out. I thought it was weak. Withdrawals, Smackdown, Liquor Talking, those are much better. Glad you liked it, it's highly underrated because Que doesn't have a fanbase yet.

Also, everyone...

House and 12 A.M. are my favorite so far, but this seems like one of those albums that your favorite songs switches every week.

Man Meek Mill just seems to be taking non-stop Ls since that whole Drake debauchery.

Albums in rotation the past 2 months:

Jay Rock - 90059



Company Flow - Funcrusher Plus



Future - Beast Mode



Fabulous - Summertime Shootout





The albums aren't necessarily good, but they're catchy and entertaining. Good enough for this guy.

Because it's entertaining, the primary reason we listen to music. I have an upper tolerance of how much 'conscious' rap I can stomach at a time. There's only so much I can listen to about 'injustice' from some dude on a high horse before I say "ok fuck it, it's time for something actually entertaining"

Bryson Tiller's been blowing up lately. He's gonna be on the same level as Drake in a few years. Dude can rap just as good as he sings.

Bought G-Eazy's new album last night. It's alright. A few songs that I like:

friends don't let friends listen to g-eazy.

tiller is ill though

[azulsombra]

My fave albums of the last year in order

To pimp a butterfly-Kendrick

Tetsuo & Youth- Lupe

Forest Hills Drive- J cole

Dark Sky Paradise- Big Sean

Young OG-Fabolous

ATLLA- Asap Rocky

Summer 06'- Vince Staples

Bush- Snoop Dogg

Album about nothing- Wale

Free Weezy Album- Lil Wayne

Sreemlife- Rae sremmurd

[coverdoc]

^^Agree with your list except for the last two. Lupe definitely did his thing with his latest album. Production was off the hook.

How do you guys listen to music? I binge the hell out of an album for about a week nonstop on repeat. I listen to music about 3-4 hours a day. Then I grow tired of the album and search for something new. Great albums I'll binge on for 10-12 days.

August Alsina dropped his sophmore album on friday. Techinically he is R&B but he mixes it up in his songs.

I have been listening to his album non stop.Some of my favorites of the album.

Fuck rap and hip hop.

A people cannot be separated from their culture.

And the values that popular forms of rap and hip hop encourage and espouse have only done damage to the black, minority, and inner city communities. Kids grow up listening to this shit. I was one of those kids.

Yes I know. But what about Tribe Called Quest. De La Soul. Mos Def. Talib Kweli. The Roots. DOOM.

A handful of real artists with real talent. And I can't say fuck rap without lumping these artists in. But it is what it is. These guys are entertaining, but that entertainment value is trumped by the damage this genre has done to our communities.

This isn't to say that rap is the root of all evil. Of course it's not. There is never one cause, but it's a strong contribution to the cultural decay of the ghettos and trailer parks of America, which has progressed to the burbs and even abroad now. I can't help but wonder how things would be different if the popular topic of debate in these communities wasn't Tupac vs Biggy but was rather Davis vs Coltrane.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


You're a low-post no-rep member who came into this thread guns blazing saying 'fuck the subject of this thread' because of your limited point of view. Get the fuck out.

I understand, to an extent, the thought process that the music is damaging because I used to think that same thing, but it's also an expression of their reality. And you get this with every form of music. Rock and Roll back in the 70's and 80's encouraged drugs, drinking and having non-stop sex. And an increased amount of that happened because of fans listening to it. This has caused damage to the culture of their fans.

The same can be said about pop music. It's listened to by 12-year-olds and it talks about fucking and sucking off dudes and doing drugs. And country music, current rock, heavy metal - They all bring on a mood and message to fans that damages their culture. Are you complaining about that, too?

Nonetheless, this thread isn't for you. Tuck your erect dick back between your legs and walk out the door.

[pathoma]

Listen my point isn't to convert you into agreement with me. I expressed my opinion on rap/hip hop in the rap/hip hop thread. That's it. I'm making the same argument people made against rock back when it was the most influential genre. Now it's rap. Ask Kanye.

It might shock you to know that you're going to find people on the internet that don't agree with you. If you want a circle jerk then call it "____ appreciation thread."
