2018 Rolling Rap and Hip Hop Thread

*than they do

“For making an observation” that was the rationalization behind encouraging the Balkanization of the rap threads

I mean who really cares at this pt most of the original goons don’t even post here any more & I probably shouldn’t spend my time here either, it can be forks playpen for all I care

“For making an observation” that was the rationalization behind encouraging the Balkanization of the rap threads

wtf I didn't even say a word until yesterday. This shit's been going on for weeks as far as I can tell.

street rap is generally better than other rap thats just an objective observation

If better = artless copycat beats and low energy delivery, then sure.

yeah it is pretty great

now we're cooking

I despise mediocrity in all music, not just rap, so don't feel too special.

does anyone on ilx have a face tat?

I may see a professional about this before I turn into Geir.

Feel like there is more imagined drama in the rolling rap threads than there actually is. Usually it's just cool music posts with the occasional digression about some soundcloud rapper some folks think is overrated and others don't. This weird multi-thread spat is really odd to me.

eehhh you just posted a skyzoo video.

I miss some dude.

heh thought I'd check out an ILM rap thread cause I've avoided them for years & now I think I'm good with avoiding them for eternity.

we could always start another one

I like Skyzoo :)

Hey, OTM.

otm indeed, just read through the first couple hundred posts in the 2017 thread, there is no animosity, no drama, mostly just youtube links and a few comments about the songs

i like this new Evidence album:

CZAR FACE is quietly one of the best Wu related things in years

I have no idea where to put this, but I just learned my daughter's 5th grade teacher formed a secret rap group with his brother, and it's not bad! This is from a couple of years ago:

jfc guys

So my knowledge of rap is admittedly limited (which might explain what I'm about to say, if we go by the trve kvlt) but I'm really liking Saba's Care for Me.
