Man, these freestyles. Ugly God was waaay ahead of what I was expecting, I really like his sense of humor. Amine is just doing a Chance impersonation. Kyle looks like a Bachelorette contestant. X is doing edgy tryhard black-Marilyn-Manson poo poo. Weird crop this year.

jay z dissing kanye instead of just giving him a phone call or him talking about the beyonce poo poo is so lame

Are we really gonna act like Kanye didn't start that poo poo and make it public?

Is this what we are really gonna do on this friday in the rap thread?

Yes because rappers never talk about personal stuff on raps.

It could've been worse. At least Jay didn't do Ye like Dame and gently caress his ex.

Why is Jay the only rapper that people try to defend by saying "he's a great businessman!"?

He's a pretty good businessman, but a above average rapper who's puffed himself up to get people thinking he's a great rapper. He's basically rap Donald Trump-he been selling people on the Jay-Z brand so long they think it's actually quality. But in terms of the music world his biggest contribution is bringing Kanye up to national prominence.

Again, all credit to his hustle-nobody in the history of music has gotten more with less actual ability than Jay-Z. But that doesn't mean I wanna listen to his music, especially since he's been in his brand collaboration mode.

Totally! Humanz doesn't even register as a candidate (though I love Gorillaz and really enjoyed the album), because there's too much filler! Strobelite, Submission, The Apprentice, all top notch, but as a whole it pales in comparison to these other offerings. A fantastic year for music nonetheless.

After listening to the new Calvin Harris I became aware that I am not as familiar with ScHoolboy Q as I should be. Is there anywhere I should start or does it matter?

Same here, but it had serious track bloat. That's always been an issue with Q, though. Same thing happened with Blank Face.

He's also a very uneven performer. If the crowd is into him, the world is his oyster. If he's not feeling the crowd his effort level kind of dips and he gets visibly annoyed. The show I saw him at was of the latter type, and it was just okay. Part of it wasn't his fault (poo poo festival timeslot at like 6 pm after a big thunderstorm) but IMO you should be taking those moments to convert people and make them care about your music.
