Vinnie Paz - Same Story (My Dedication)

Been really digging on cLOUDDEAD a **** ton the past few months.

Yeeesss, Machine, yes. Love both those albums so much.

This is a classic album in this style IMO. A standard setter, which only greats like MF DOOM really ever improved on.

Some nice IDMish rap from Russia.

Common Market - Trouble Is

:beer:

Clipping. is always nice

Check "Time? Astonishing!" by L'orange & Kool Keith out also, gives that MF DOOM vibe with the old school skits :) A little taste with my favorite track of the album:

Nice tune, love the production on this.

Goddamned Best Hip Hops Ever

Spotify playlist I made. 207 tracks. 13 hours, 51 minutes. Have a listen one wake-time.

Key Kool and DJ Rhettmatic - Can U Hear It?

I wondered how far down the list Daylight would be. You predictable one, you.

Stay true to the self.

Drake - Back to Back

Rich Homie Quan - Flex

Eyedea and Abilities - Man vs Ape

Get on this NJ local ish...

The Wrist (aka Terrorwrist)

There has been some great albums lately..




support.

Been trying to get a feel for quality music of more recent years regardless of underground/commercial status since that line is so blurred now and I keep finding albums that I like

I really like Vince Staples and his most recent album is really good. This song is the hit I guess:


And I like this Casey Veggies album, at least a handful of the songs:


Also this one is kind of weird for me and I think I might've never heard of this if it wasn't a Best New Album on Pitchfork :o: but I've listened to this a lot lately. Pretty much as commercial as rap gets and it often sounds pretty stupid on the surface but I still like it, most of the songs' production grabs me somehow. Kevin Gates carries the album with his personality/vocal delivery and his occasionally clever and emotionally intelligent lyrics:

Keep coming back to this because everything BSBD touches turns to gold

Nacho Picasso - Stoned & Dethroned

Krizz Kaliko - Scars

New astronautalis EP is DOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPEEEE

I thought that was Despot at first because of blonde cracker homogeneity, but that is dope indeed.

Is Despot still putting out music? I have soo much trouble finding stuff by him and I've really enjoyed everything I've heard.

just some Madvillain again

Not as far as I can tell.

Elucid - Osage on bandcamp

I tried giving the new 2Chainz & Lil Wayne project a listen today and I'm still unsure if it's funny or just sad. I keep asking myself how far Lil Wayne is going to go before realizing that he's played out, but it's clear he's nowhere near done yet, unfortunately.

New Flatbush Zombies!!

YT: "Big Daddy Kane & The Keystones @ Root Down."
Kinda sloppy, but so much fun. Highly Recommended.

TKash - Sign Language

"Now tell me I can't tear it up, go get yourself some toilet paper cause your lyrics is butt."

So Kano's new video is actually very good, really really good. Fully Hip-Hop but I'm really liking this atm.
