it's a reference to one of the foremost rage beats guys who likes to stylize his songs that way

yeat is the artist, his name doesn't show up in the vid title

yëat

getting yëëtëd

catching up on some rio da yung og eps from last year and sheeesh is this good

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oExj2LaKTsg

i should link to the actual video

new babyface ray album starts kinda rough but settles into a groove

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

this seems goon friendly

I love "Watchu Need" by Rio da Yung OG

digging this, especially the beat, reminds me of some old school jazzy Black Moon tracks, really like how they incorporate that long jazz solo guitar run which is kinda chaotic but really works and makes it stand out

veeze video is down assuming it's this?
great beat on this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y97aInvWqjY

yes, that's the one. good song.

folks from other regions are taking the veeze flow. this one does a pretty solid job, imo.

i dig these guys, Tanya Morgan (but it's two rapper dudes and that's the group name for some reason), this has that infectious pharcyde, old hieroglyphics kinda vibe to it, they met on the okayplayer boards lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH0r1qNiQfA

tanya morgan, now that's a blog era throwback. cool to see they're still out there doing things.

GTA is nice

veeze is dope, this was one of my favorite songs last year

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

that's great too, ty

veeze "A&W" was prob my fav rap song last year

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzT7ZkS8-D0

Is GTA officially released or is it going to be released on an upcoming album? I only find it on yt and soundcloud.

it's in the rap netherworld of yt-only/soundcloud-only releases where you don't have to clear any samples or feature appearances

digging the new junglepussy ep, and the way each song flows into the next, moving from traditionalist boom-bap to something more abstract.

new saba is predictably great

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-MVN1PSY7o

yeah. he posted a note on socials asking people not to compare it to 'care for me,' which makes me think he worked hard to make an album that wouldn't stand in its shadow.

posted my initial reaction here, still thinking about the album tho: Saba - CARE FOR ME

Yeah really like the new Saba. everyone is raving about the last three tracks of the album - which are great - but being really into Smino and 6lack’s style, having them together on Still makes it automatically my fav one even before I listened to it.

i really love how saba is so diverse over the course of an album, different styles of beats, different flows, guest rappers with really different styles...most rappers have thing that they are good at and just stick to that, saba can switch it up by it still has an overall sense of unity

great beat on this

GTA slaps for sure. The production sounds similar to the HBK Gang work used by P-Lo and Iamsu!.

I just noticed the ILM tracks of the year poll wrapped up a week ago -- not much hip hop there at all that I'm seeing. I can't even find the hip hop thread from last year. Was there any kind of year-end wrap up, or any recommended best of the year lists out there? Appreciate it.

I'm pretty out of the loop but this worked for me for 2021.

ALLBLACK & Cal-A - We Straight (Official Video) (feat. Vince Staples)

a few of us listed our faves on the rap thread last year starting about here: rolling thread 2021 (deluxe edition)

Thanks!

Oooh I love this, Doe Boy from Cleveland, also the gangsta granny in the video is too much haha, love this beat

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpkcK1xRlLE

Oops from Atlanta sorry saw Cleveland somewhere but he's Future's guy I guess

nah he is from cleveland, but also signed to future’s fbg

that’s a good song, i also loved his collab with 42 dugg and g herbo from late last year

really loving the new project by sf rapper lil bean, prob the city’s best entry into the “pain music” field

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXIOVvMZ4pI

That ALLBLACK track is pretty good.

speaking of the titular rage beats, the yëat tape is a bit much but appropriately so. there are great moments, like the below

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

posted some 2022 rap in the 11 favorite songs thread, might as well post 'em here

su'lan - 6pm on melrose ft. baby stone gorillas: ruthless cali rap from two of the coast's best groups working
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XBHufXfOE4

realyungphil - everything we need (prod. by evilgiane): idk how these drill producers get away with using these samples but this is an incredible flip of a not so great kanye song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvngBdpZFHs

bandgang masoe - top of the key: it's a contact sport, put your pads on
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQgd-AiJwuk

also can't stop playing the "new" king von song:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nhd0Le08I08

That Su'lan is so good...
All them in BSG hit their verses really distinct...
Also, there are some excellent beerbellies on this thread...

no sacred cows in sampling anymore lol. the prince estate must have retired his team of female black lawyers that used to file dmca requests by the dozen

good song tho!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_wyny3b0cg

1100 himself is a good rapper. not sure why he calls himself "eleven thousand" but spells his name with one too few zeroes, but i digress. mitchell is good too, i respect him for defiantly picking the least google-able rap name possible.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CarDbRNC7LI

you know i got that iron on me, yeah i got that skillet

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_JwzVsv5Ps

new veeze (finally)... his beat selection remains immaculate

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43U04KqyvUk

might be my favorite thing he's ever done

the higher tempo of that beat suits him better than i would've thought

i hit the strip club i'm too rich i don't belong in there

trappin aint for you boy you need to get a job

los is establishing himself as one of the best in detroit, and his new tape 'kareem from new orleans vol. 2' is one of my fav things of his. particularly love this song of his with his frequent rap partner wb nutty and icewear vezzo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHIMOzCWcYE

and yes, veeze does make an appearance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVZQHrcMuXc

finally a rap duo that ilx can call its own

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fty2lFGxVdE

haven't checked out any of the new smino stuff but looking forward to that one

bandman album is pretty good, tho the previously-released songs are the highlights.

i guess that original "who you touch" sample is never gonna get cleared. thank god for youtube

Really loving the Smino album (and the continued presence of Monte Booker is a huge part of that)

been slacking on boring street rap and dead-end backpacker posts, digging ja'king the divine a lot

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

gabe nandez rules

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJ-P6Xo1vOc

smino alb is one of my favorites of the year. he's just the smoothest mf in the game!

thanks for the reminder, been meaning to check that out

love this, doesn't quite live up to the song title but what could, reminds me of busta in the chorus

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pS7jGd3l9U

love $ilkmoney, had no idea he was back. and with a whole new project nonetheless!

looking through the new tracklist and that’s probably only the fourth or fifth craziest song title on the project

"eddie murphy golden child hat" made me lol

this one by trapland pat has been stuck in my head for a week

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7DAzti-cuA

really liking the new mixtape by enchanting, atlanta rapper signed to gucci's new 1017 records. can't get enough of her hushed delivery and tho there may be a few too many guests, she has good chemistry with all of them. a few highlights

"kater to me" (prod. by hitkidd, who did "f.n.f.")
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrXjox0eF10

"track and field" ft. kali (been out for a while, but it's still great)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVZSn_XRr3U

"o.p.p." ft. jdot breezy & whoppa wit da choppa
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsnk_u6E1BE

been blasting out the CEO Trayle album all afternoon, it's good!

yeah it's legit

this one is my current fav

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N05nGNxetXo

gr8 mix by deej on nts

https://www.nts.live/shows/new-york-naomi/episodes/new-york-naomi-12th-november-2022

reminds me i need to start a seji oda thread

yah that’s good. love the mall money song, and wish luh tyler had more music out there

speaking of trayle, he just dropped a vid for "craxk flow"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tl9NxULyQ0

I just love listening to AZ rap

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8z7NOuzMGVc

been loving the new lil poppa tape, some smart and deeply felt melodic street music to fill the polo g-shaped hole in my listening
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4VXdwcX-d0

d40 to thread

Lil poppa and slo-be have probably the most underrated albums of the year

checking out lil poppa, really great so far

https://soundcloud.com/bandmanrill/sets/unrealeased-pt2

bandmanrill threw up a bunch of loosies on soundcloud and i'm enjoying this way more than his project. it's slanted for more towards club music than drill which just aligns w/ my taste also there's some songs on here that have samples they obv could not clear

luh tyler - back flippin prob one of the best rap songs of the year & looks like it might blow up in a real way

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNcKvADGx1U

loved "i gotta slide" from earlier this year, but that was just a sketch compared to this one. def feels like he has a flow that everyone will be jacking soon enough

still love "i gotta slide," though, every line on that one is gold

"i been kissin mary jane, she change the color of my eyes"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBO9zxqHD6o

"fat racks" is my fav

late year discovery - this Jay Worthy/Larry June collab tape is super fun old school west coast electro vibes

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

i liked that album a lot

new luh tyler for christmas

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XWLNek3Uwo

struggling to think of a new thread title that includes a references to obvious sample flips and jersey club, and includes the word "sturdy"

maybe that's too east coast focused idk

rolling high bpms

that includes ie 'dump it dummy,' milwaukee stuff, west coast stuff like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-i1VS09r0Y

def a trend but maybe generic even for this thread ha

rolling regional club

generic is the point!

rolling get sturdy high bpms 2023

let's do it
