Again my quest to check out every youtube posted here has me way behind. That Shady Nate with the cut up Delfonics sample is doooooooope.

always good to hear a cultural event referenced for the first time by a rapper

comin out swingin like TIGER WOODS' WIFE

first time? Maino dropped a whole song about Tiger like 2 months ago.

anyway I'm pretty sure Joe Budden keeps Headline News on 24/7 in hopes of being the first guy to have a punchline about Conan losing the Tonight Show or whatever

my bad i don't really keep up on maino's career

^ l-l-l-lower than u knooooowwww

i could fkn kill luda or whoever for letting rick ross sit in the middle of that remix btw. also what's up with shawnna suddenly having nothing to do with battle of the sexes? wasn't it all announced after she signed to nappy boy anyway or am i misremembering

lol lex

I fill her up... BALLOONS

man lil wayne and his mates ruined luda as well.

nah luda's always been like that

Yeah but it always seemed a bit subtler I think.

that jacka track deej posted is great.

deej it's kinda weird though cuz didn't you sorta hate on freddie gibbs for the same reasons you are defending j. stalin and jacka?

just curious, not trying to fight....as you know i believe boring, extremely competent rappers are the only Way Forward we have today.

and i don't find them "boring" but i know what people mean when they say that

and, for the record i think yelawolf is a more exciting rapper in some ways than stalin, but i think the best of stalin's stuff has a great atmosphere and the sorta menacing tangerine dream thing is way more distinctive production than anything on yelawolf

anyway I'm pretty sure Joe Budden keeps Headline News on 24/7 in hopes of being the first guy to have a punchline about Conan losing the Tonight Show or whatever

i think how most rappers have "weed carries", budden has guys who do shifts watching cnn/refreshing cnn.com so he can make sure to date his songs as horribly as possible

Nice:

listening to the so dang many shrimps best raps 2009 mix! good stuff : )

yo that soulja bangs

the only rapper who has made any kind of sea-change rap style in the past couple years is gucci imo, its not like im only into rappers who make a huge impact or something tho. but i do tend to be drawn to rappers w/ a stronger personality & KRIT excepted, i think stalin/jacka have really strong personalities, even if they arent a 'way forward' -- or more accurately id argue that for 99% of rappers, including a bunch of my favorites past & present, personality IS the 'way forward' even if not all of them will have the impact of like eazy e / too short / biggie / pac / whoever else that had a huge stylistic impact

KRIT is an exception bcuz hes not really all that well defined yet & i could easily see him slipping into some annoying BOB/Lupe mode (i liked early Lupe tracks a lot I think i did a mediocre blog post about them once) but at this point he still feels like he has a lot of promise. freddie gibbs who again i do enjoy a whole bunch on some tracks esp 'murder on my mind' still feels like a really dry personality in a way that even KRIT doesnt (or KRIT is all over the place).

But Jacka and Stalin push a really strong personality through their raps? Like I hear a single line from Stalin & I can project this entire persona on him, cocky, sorta arrogant, but honest, charismatic center of attention type dude. I never get that from a single line of Pill's or Gibbs'.

im at my friends place on his laptop so i didnt get a chance to reread & rearrange that post so my thoughts are kind of out of order but im at least articulating something understandable??

jacka's personality is a lil more subtle w/ his fusion of cormega style ny delivery & west coast g rap archetype & east coast ny mafioso themes. i think its an impressive skill how hes somehow become the central focal point of his scene. i would say his style is conservative/reserved/subtle but that doesnt make it any less defined than a mystikal/luda extrovert

tbh i recommend googling around & finding jacka's "shooterz" mixtape cuz it gives a broader idea of his persona i think, than a few isolated youtubes

can't find the pack mixtape anywhere, what's the deal with that goons?

"the only rapper who has made any kind of sea-change rap style in the past couple years is gucci"

i think i need to have a clearer understanding of what you mean by 'sea-change' because the first person who comes to mind that's really altered the landscape and sound of hip hop for both new and old cats over the past few years is Wayne.

wayne did before him. his style changes were happening in like '05 - '06

'07

the last couple years = '08, '09 = gucci. lil wayne's style was already pretty established at this pt

so you'd argue that gucci's sound/style/flow/approach has drastically affected the landscape? Can you give some solid, national examples of new and old rappers embracing it for sales/artistic sake? Cause there's not much on, say, even Shine Blockas for instance that feels like it's a song with his imperative guiding it.

imo o'course.

shine blockas is a horrible example dude. thats a boring gucci cameo & nothing like 99% of his work & is generally overrated

anyway wait til monday, im doing a post about a bunch of this stuff

i shd note though that usually you have 'point of impact' which is followed by 'artists influenced' & that just cuz jay-z was changing the game in the late 90s it wasnt til the mid 00s that wayne starting running with that, it didnt mean that listeners didnt notice jay was changing the game while it was happening (although he def wasnt getting that respect from 99% of the corners he does now)

xp um, okay. just seems like most of gucci's best known national songs (and they're pretty much all cameos) like LOL:), Shine, Break Up, Get It don't sound like 99% of his work and his one breakthrough hit hardly sounded purely unique to him either.
