I am only a couple songs in but I am also digging the 21 Savage album, production is sick and I feel like 21's voice/bars have improved quite a bit and fit really well. I only liked a few songs of his before this but will definitely be bumping a few off here at least. Also, 9th Wonder released his third installment of the "Zion" instrumental series, Zion III. I love 9th's production and am going to have this on repeat at work.

I think it's fair game to criticise lyrics in trap music, rock has a guitar as it's foundation and for rap it's clearly the lyricism. Anyway I'm adding Awfulswim (Father), Veteran (JPEGMAFIA), Mudboy (Sheck Wes) and Nasty (Rico Nasty) to my end of year list. Hadn't listened to Peggy before but Black Ben Carson is also excellent, totally didn't pay attention to that when it came out This is really interesting man, enjoying this

Is the album after Amerikkkas Most Wanted pretty good for Ice Cube? I heard he dropped off a little bit in the mid 90s.

The big difference is he started leaning a lot more into west coast gangsta rap style. A lot of the political undertones dropped out, and production had a lot less traditional East coast boom bap style. Basically amerikkkas most wanted was cube making a PE album. That said I don't think he really fell off until like war and peace, and most of his 90's stuff is good to amazing. You just have to expect a different sound. Death certificate, the predator, and lethal injection are all great, and his westside connection stuff is solid .

Westside Connection was a solid cube project, it was him, Mac-10, and WC. Had a nice cypress hill diss on there too. https://youtu.be/GDcgeZEe7P4 Also Insanely Sikh posted:Also Future on King's Dead is verse of the year don't take yourselves so seriously

Listening to the 21 Savage album. It's fine. Not bad, just nothing about it stands out to me either. Definitely not putting this on my best of the year list when stuff like the Black Panther soundtrack, Daytona and Kids See Ghosts exists.

However, now I'm listening to TA13OO and this is pretty great! I saw Denzel open for Run the Jewels last year and I didn't even know who he was at the time. I wonder if he played any of these tracks when I saw him. I don't remember much about his set other than it was surprisingly solid for an opener. Why did he split up a 43 minute album into 3 discs, though? I mean I guess it was an artistic choice, but what was the reasoning behind it?

I feel like Peggy should get more features but I can’t really think of anyone else he would sound good with. Also gonna repost one of my favorite tracks of the year since we’re talking about him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPu1U277_5I

Listening to Astroworld before I finalize my best of the year list. This is my first time hearing Sicko Mode, which I guess has become a meme and gets called "this generation's Bohemian Rhapsody" or whatever. I guess I can see the surface-level comparisons with both of those songs having beat changes, but it's not like Sicko Mode is anywhere near as good as Bohemian Rhapsody lmao Like I don't feel compelled to go back and listen to it again or anything. I'm further into the tracklist and I've moved on. It wasn't standout. Nothing from this album has been so far, honestly.
