Yeah, it was fun, despite waiting an hour and a half to get inside the venue in the cold. He didn't end up playing until around 2:00am, but it was a cool show. I have nothing at all against Tity Boi playing the 1 minute of each track he's featured on. Ground floor was like a mosh pit.

#3krazy

this is more or less the twitter-generation version of having a tattoo on your face?

This OXYxMORON is the best rap album about momma's chicken and not selling your soul to the devil in ages:

Also, the new Tree tape is good.

i don't necessarily think having a separate rap poll again is a great idea but we should prob talk about best mixtapes of the year huh? i missed so much and have no idea where to start, wish tpp had kept doing the 'goon report' thing every month or two.

haven't really got a chance to listen to it yet but the new rich kidz tape sounded pretty good, tho maybe not quite as epic as 'everybody eat bread'

OXYxMORON will appeal to big krit fans

moptop will appeal to young thug fans

I'm not a Big Krit fan, and the OXYxMORON appeals to me. It's Krit without all the extra baggage, content with being rather than meaning, etc.

Cheers for the heads up on new rich kidz J0rdan. I really really dug 'everybody eat bread' although 'my life' kinda dwarfed everything else on there.

When GZA (pronounced JIZ-ah,

Next month, the two men, along with the popular hip-hop lyrics Web site Rap Genius, will announce a pilot project to use hip-hop to teach science in 10 New York City public schools.

based on what i've heard from the keef record this isn't anything remotely like a waka career path. seems like a pretty decent debut record which is to say a mixed bag w/ some great original songs that have no precedent & show strong personality ('love sosa' 'hate being sober') songs that are nearly a year old & we are tired of & no longer sound as fresh ('3hunna' 'i dont like') weird but solid songs that show the primary influence of gucci mane (who, musically, seems like a much more significant influence on keef at this point than Waka does, imho) ('laughing to the bank,' 'diamonds') and then wack /forgettable tracks that either aim for modern rap sound ('no tomorrow' the mike will joint) or post-soulja boy autotune gumbo ('ballin'). i guess that leaves 'kaykay' which is obv dope but mostly for how it humanizes him.

basically i think that this is a nascent career & he has a higher potential ceiling that he hasn't reached yet, has an original voice but is still evolving out from under his influences on all but his best tracks, but still has a strong enough individual voice that im not partic worried or anything

read that in my head with an andy rooney voice

new Young Gifgtz X Lokey :

yeah stoked abt this lokey is still super underrated

Life Ain't No Joke seems to have slipped through the tracks, but it's really fucking good

errr cracks

Really enjoying Mac n Cheese 3. And the new Cities Aviv album.

http://www.spin.com/blogs/mykki-blancos-mutant-radio-rap-kills-queer-rap-dead

i like that piece and if it's to mean anything at all, this is where it should be talked about

new mouse on tha track is really good.

http://www.livemixtapes.com/mixtapes/19715/mouse-on-the-track-millionaire-dreamzzz.html

The production, from bleeding-edge dance dudes like Sinden, Brenmar, and Gatekeeper

ehhh

even to this day every single time i'm on a tube platform and see a mouse on the track i think "gonna make u bounce and act"

lol

despite being so cash money derivative it's near enough pointless this tape is hard to hate on

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIL0hT5xymc

love this

oooh mouse's (last?) tape from january '11 was great too, "unwind" was my fav offa that

this mouse track is great. you can almost see mannie and juvenile in the studio together recording this.

that kyleon/mouse album was so dope

DLing this

Can we Wiki together a timeline that breaks down just how much hip-hop culture is derived from, or at the very least, was heavily influenced by gay culture? How Tupac Shakur grew up in house music-obsessed Baltimore (hometown of queer-cinema godfather John Waters and transgender DJ/vocalist Miss Tony)

stopped here

yeah i thought the tupac/baltimore thing was kind of a stretch

good thing he didn't grow up in a city that didn't have any gays or we'd be forced to suggest hip hop was not derived from gay culture

i forgot he was from baltimore, i remembered he went to that Fame school in NYC with jada pinkett and stuff

it was really weird when tupac embraced being a west coast soldier so hard in the death row era, just given his background

well everyone who lives in baltimore is required to watch john waters movies and have sex with him fyi

"2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted (feat. Divine)"

i used to work a block from the baltimore school for the arts. and about a block away in the other direction is where divine ate the dogshit XD

deej, "hip-hop's top 50 most secretly gay rappers" sounds like a job for the complex staff

that kyleon/mouse album was so dope
