Wiley
 
Sticking this in Hip-Hop, could go in Electronic but putting it here, come at me.

Snakes & Ladders tracklist has been leaked and the album is out in January.

Edit: WileyVerified account
*@Wiley Updates
@masterpig 100 and album is only 14 tracks 2 bonus tracks

:confused:

Anyway, should be ten times better than The Ascent.

First single is out, another creative video:

Good stuff. Loving that single.

Cuthbert 12-30-2013 01:48 PM

Yeah it's a good indication of the direction he's going with this album (first single of the last one was Heatwave which was obviously pop, he said before The Ascent this new album will be the one he really wants to make). I'm sure it will top Race Against Time.

he recently (well, last year) released a new mixtape called it's all fun and games till...Vol I
Which was really good. He's obviously still putting out the grime stuff on the side for his fans so I wouldn't be too worried about what his next studio album sounds like.

By the way, I listened to Treddin' on Thin Ice and greatly enjoyed it. The last few months I've counted myself as a Wiley fan.

Cuthbert 12-30-2013 02:08 PM

TOTI is probably his best one imo, with Race Against Time & Da 2nd Phaze also, some below average tracks but where it shines it's immense. Did you have a favourite track on TOTI?

14232949 12-30-2013 02:13 PM

Tracks? The opener 'The Game', Next Level and Pick Yourself Up.
I like the way they all sort of merge into one another and the way he rhymes he sort of back tracks an early bar to change the wordplay for what he'll say next.
He'll move on with a word or phrase from the bar he's on and incorporate it into the next one.
That probably makes no sense to read lol.

Cuthbert 12-30-2013 02:35 PM

Agreed, The Game is one of mine too (+Wot U Call It & the Eskimo Interlude).

I think I get you lol, yeah his flow is sick.

Cuthbert 01-03-2014 09:49 AM

He's changed the tracklist again.

Instagram

There will be a track with Danny Brown.

Quote:

I got 1 more track i gotta do with @XDannyXBrownX i wanna add to my album then its done ...final ...no more adding to it.
He's confirmed a February 2nd release date.

Quote:

Make sure you grab my final (Solo) album #SnakesAndLadders Out Feb 2nd . Last (Wiley) Album Ever .
He's also said he's doing his last tour, which will include the best music of his entire career, may have to attend.

Quote:

Also ...Make Sure You Get #SnakesAndLadders Tour Tickets Going on sale very soon....The Final Solo Tour. Performing my life of music.
Obviously being Wiley him saying it's his last album doesn't really mean anything but he is putting 100% into this one.

yay Wiley


Cuthbert 01-05-2014 06:10 PM

That is very nice.

I forgot to post these.

Spoiler for Track:




Spoiler for Track:
Wiley - '1 Step Further'

Instrumental: Z Dot - On Sight (Wiley also used this for the track 'Mastered The Craft')


Spoiler for Track:


All of these are on the album. This album is on point so far, no crossover/pop singles.

@WileyUpdates: I am gonna scrap snakes and ladders and start again cos i ain't happy with it ...Needs to be epic or else there is no point.

:rolleyes:

Knew he'd do something like this. Every single time.

djchameleon 02-03-2014 05:33 PM

boo.

That's lame.

Johnni Lightning 02-16-2014 03:06 PM

I need to make sure I'm checking the net more regularly. Wiley is a pioneer. If it weren't for him none of the British rappers who have enjoyed success over the past decade like Dizzee, Tinie Tempah, Wretch 32 etc. would have been as successful. I love when Wiley just makes music, not worries about a radio hit. I have enjoyed some of his radio hits, but songs like "Flying" are the true essence of Wiley.

:cool:

Agree with it all mate, post more. If you look at any UK rapper from 2002 onward, with the exception of N Dubz you can trace them back to Wiley. Arguably even the Road Rap guys like Giggs.


Wot Do You Call It - YouTube

This short video is pretty cool. Explains how he invented the sound at the time.

14232949 02-16-2014 09:23 PM

I'm going to go listen to N-Dubz now Benteke.

Cuthbert 02-17-2014 05:26 AM

Na Na niiiiiiii

Cuthbert 02-24-2014 07:26 AM

Wiley has lost the plot over the past few days and is currently talking a bag of shit on Twitter. Saying that I spoke to him and Snakes & Ladders is finished, three singles then he's dropping it. So he says.

Cuthbert 03-05-2014 09:28 PM

Can't get enough Wiley? Thought so. Here's a digitally released single from 2010.


Wiley - Joombi (Prod. By Zdot) - YouTube

Budududadadadada.

Cuthbert 05-30-2014 01:09 AM

I know what you mean, but he was saying earlier today that it is definitely out on June the 16th and there are only ten days to go (it's not even available for pre order yet, artwork and track listing are not even out which seems odd).

https://twitter.com/WileyUpdates/sta...71405359079424

He said this the other day though:

http://grmdaily.com/wiley-ignore-tha...nt-backing-it/

Quote:

Ignore that bullshit new single you hear …just ignore it ….i ain’t backing it .
I'm not sure if it's on Snakes and Ladders (I very much doubt it as Wiley is talking like this is his magnum opus), the single is shit though - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dip7Mb_dAL8

He is like a silly old granddad that we all love and laugh at.

Good interview this.

gobigtv 06-17-2014 07:50 AM

I honestly really liked the most recent project even considering its lack of grime

Hikannd 07-01-2014 09:45 AM

Great single

Cuthbert 11-07-2014 06:35 PM

Snakes and Ladders is out right now.

I honestly don't know what goes through this guy's head at times. Basically he's an idiot.

If you want it send me a PM.
