*sighs*

of course the rapping sounds 'kind of off' -- its husalah
have u checked 'husalin since the 80s' lp yet cuz ...

i still care about lloyd banks, at least that track, it's nice!

pill/gibbs was okay not totally feeling it.

hustlah seemed ok

great to see shawnna back! she's great...though i hate to see her biting that goddamn minaj accent in parts, she's a way better rapper than that, it's beneath her.

that track is real nice, lovin juelz verse too

the song that shawna & t-pain did for 'epiphany' is great

huge fan of this album 4eva btw

forks otm

i remember the interview with T-Pain where he said he named the album 'epiphany' when he saw the word for the first time and didn't know what it meant and when he looked it up he had one and then he put the dictionary definition AT THE START OF THE ALBUM and i was all like awwww heart

the xxl with gucci on the cover has this cool feature where current rappers ask rakim questions -- idk how long they've been doing this for but some of the guys asked some dope questions

the gucci interview was okay, it kinda sucks that every interview with him only talks about jail or jeezy -- i thought that maybe we were past that angle but i've never seen anyone ask him about recording habits, influences, the thinking behind his songs, how he interacts with his producers, how he makes so many original songs etc etc -- the closest anyone has gotten to it is asking him "how have you been able to stay hot while in jail" to which he inevitably says "i just worked hard" and they don't prod

the issue also had a super lol photo spread of jim jones and STYLES P modeling clothes -- i have no idea why this happened. couldn't all these magazines save money by cutting out their "fashion" and video games sections? or does that mean no more rocawear ads?

ok this alley boy mixtape is pretty fuckin dope
i mean, his style isnt blowing me away or anything but some of these songs are just hot as fuck

d boy blues 2010 got a video

the alley boy mixtape is like... really Epic in the truest sense of the word, not just as a synonym for "great". it's like a jeezy album

yeah i know, part of what i really like about it is that it has a interesting mix of single statement songs about jewellery and cars etc, but he's also obviously an underdog and that struggle comes through quite often and leaves him seeming quite hurt and vulnerable.
i think that apparent duality is kinda what makes it like a jeezy album and hence 'epic'.

agree, and it emphasized all the things i hate about fellow atl hype victim b.o.b. and his own tape, which is just utter garbage and completely lacks in direction but especially in identity. i don't think i smiled once through the whole thing whereas definition of fuck shit had me fully engaged start-finish.

also alley boy sounds like stevie janowski from eastbound and down when he gets all goofy

i'm kind of in love with the alley boy tape. it might just be because i bumped the life out of 'trunk muzik' but it feels like my favourite mixtape of the year so far. the gucci comparison upthread is otm, and although he's not his equal lyrically he's sure got the songwriting thing down and his double-time flow is great. i like the epic-ness about it, how it never lets up in terms of energy.

i dont really love the alley boy tape although certain tracks on it are next level. esp 'play your position'. good lord that beat. it needs an all star remix w/ boosie/gucci/gotti. and like ... kurupt or someone.

as a rapper dude is kind of boring tho. like a cross between dro's enunciation & gotti's subject matter but w/out gotti's personality or dro's skillz. i dunno. this is a good tape & i think the best comparison w/ jeezy is that hes like a dude punching out of his own league

he sounds kind of like a less lyrical krit, I guess? I like the tape but I'm not totally wowed by it

im not wowed by the entire tape but i am wowed by 'play your position' which i listened to 30 times over. makes me want to do spontaneous gangster-rap hands

the thing i was most impressed by on first listen was its sense of direction -- i felt the same sort of way with the krit tape... they both kinda dropped immediately with this sense that they had thought about their sound & how they want to come off. the alley boy tape drags a bit but i could def see him dropping something major.

yeah, I agree with that

19 weeks on the hip hop/r&b chart. stuff moves slow.

i gotta say i do a lot of *pats back* for being ahead of the curve on rap shit but damn if i ever guessed that song was a future hit when i first heard it

i liked it with the b/w video straight away but i literally never think "wonder if this is gonna be a hit" like u apparently do first thing

im talking about hearing it tacked at the end of a gucci mixtape, i was like "ehh skip" not "amazing song -- wouldnt be surprised if this was a hit"

by the time it had a video &, like, some momentum behind it where u actually heard other ppl playing/discussing it thats a diff issue

pity they didn't make a video for "birthday" or release "don't front". i guess d boy blues plays the emo semi-autobiographical angle tho so it's a good choice in the sense of showing there's that if anyone is paying attention. i still listen to that album a lot but i skip around like crazy.

yeah i can see how u could skip it in that context initially

he sounds kind of like a less lyrical krit, I guess? I like the tape but I'm not totally wowed by it

i got this same vibe actually. the tape didn't make much of an impression but i definitely thought it was ok, should listen again. "tall" is still great obv

definitely don't even think of mixtape cuts as even potential singles but i guess that's dinosaur thinking, things have changed with shit like "best i ever had", "wasted", the impact of the "trap goin ham" vid was single-like, that fuckin ancient kid cudi cut, prob more examples

xp i love Tall. was actually relieved not everyone was feeling the full tape so much, since i'm left out waitin for no dj :D

seriously fuck dj holiday tho

i would be okay with his existence if he didn't tag his mixtapes like a fucking retard

lol how did you not like him shouting out SHRIMPS!!!

was actually surprised how few tags were on this tape tbh

ha, i meant "tag" in terms of how they appear in itunes in all caps & with no artist or album & shit

his drops are annoying but not nearly as bad as 'the writing on the wall' which makes that nearly unlistenable

lol SHRIMPS!!! was he shouting u out or just on some young dro seafood gastronomy
