Momma There Goes That Man Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 If Drake actually cares enough about xxxtentacion to worry about killing the dude and risking all that he is...well that dude is a lot dumber than I thought he was. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was questioned by police in Toronto about some incidents out there. Also, from this actor I know, he hangs out with some goons. People have been at the wrong place at wrong time before, but that bamma is softer then Kashmir, he ain't copin no bodies. Just caught a story where his friend that got shot and wouldn't offer any help at all on it. He just sounds like someone trying to get street cred without getting his hands dirty, even this cat who died came back and cleaned up his Twitter on the comment of Drake possibly being involved in his death due to their "beef". I just listened to this cat's highest rated hit, I can see why some teenage girls would be upset...has anyone looked into his discography to say I should as well? Him drawing influences from artists outside his genre and saying he's trying to meld them and rap over them sounds cool, but I need a better example then what I just found (I turned away after 30 seconds). Also, "suicide over some girl leaving" is weak and the wrong message to be sending the youth, especially these days...tentatively unimpressed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticVillain Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I'm just not listening to someone name "Xxxtentacion". Sucks that he got shot in broad daylight like that though. Bammas that wanted to record instead of calling for help sucked too... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to stay open-minded to this new generation same way I do with outside genres, but maaaaaaaaan, they are making it hard these days. A name like that isn't going to throw me off, but I'm done with his discography after like 2-3 songs unless someone can make the case for me to keep looking. Even though hip-hop is more dominant then its ever been, I've never been this concerned about the direction of the genre. Someone is still convinced they are making money so its all good, but no, its not "all good".

Springfield Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 The only xxxten...... song that I can recommend is Look at Me! It’s got that typical “Lil” rapper trap beat and vocal sound, but I dig it when I’m working out. I also read that this kid sampled/copies other people’s music and gave no credit at all. Who knows, don’t that care that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 There’s nothing wrong with talking about social injustices. As long as you’re talking about things that matter. I think hip hop was brought up on injustice. NWA for example, they made a name out of it. You can only rap about drugs, money, ****es and Bentley’s before it gets annoying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kosher Ham Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 The video of the guy that claims to be there... Idiot. Never even heard of that rapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdcskins Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Westside Gunn- Supreme Blientele aka Chris Benoit. Lo-fi gritty loops. Street raps and gangster tales. Nothing new but he executes it well. This album is about the production though. Love it through a few spins. Some of you might know Westside and Conway as part of the Griselda collective that Eminem signed about a year ago. This is his last independent release before heading under Eminem's label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Just stopping by to say that Pusha T's Daytona is the hardest rap album of the year and deserves multiple plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdcskins Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Daytona was cool, I didn't see anything exceptional about it though. Lyrics were better than the beats. Hard Piano is great. I've heard that sample before, I think Madlib used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonArtest15 Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 Santeria is the only standout track to me (on Daytona.) Album is cool, but not good enough for me to cop in full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, there's not much to go back to. The Book of Ryan is still my favorite release this year so far Edited June 27, 2018 by StillUnknown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its probably my favorite so far. I think Kids See Ghosts is is decent. Don’t like Ye aside from 2 tracks. Nas was meh aside from 2-3 tracks. Book of Ryan was good but Em stole the show on Caterpillar. ASAP Rocky - Testing is pretty good. I kinda liked a few track on Jay Z and Beyonce’s Collab. J Cole’s new album was good, really liked 1984 on that one. I think Tyler had a new album out this year that was good too. Black Panther soundtrack was also good.

Bacon Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Daytona, Saba's Care For Me, the Quelle Chris/Jean Grae collab album and the Jericho Jackson project with Elzhi are my favorites of the year so far. I also really like the Nas album but it's not top 3 or anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
