You're not missing anything :) Drake's track Family Matters hit harder than The Heart Part 6, and even Family Matters sucked.

You are missing detail and nuance and incredible self-owns, but you state the correct shape of Heart Part 6. Like... you got it, you are correct, that is the core problem. It only gets worse under deeper scrutiny at any literacy level.

And then it ends with like 2 minutes of him not even bothering to rap, just sleepily rambling about how much he's not owned.

need someone new to rap itt to go back and listen to Kanye's first five albums

This is me the past 2 months. I never got into rap but decided to start with Kanye because I have watched Runaway and liked it and was blown away by how good his first 2 albums were. Still working through his other stuff but Jesus Walks was a banger. I'm so happy I will have 2 decades of backfill to work through, and Kendrick is definitely jumped the queue by a bit now cuz Not Like Us is amazing.

I picked him up right before he went insane but you can clearly see his mental arc across his discography. I like graduation more than late registration but mbdtf is basically the greatest whole album of all time

a little late on the clipse recommendations, I'm a loving nut for this mixtape. the one before this one is good, and then the remixtape they had based on the first one was also really good. this tape has the world's best version of Hate It Or Love It on it, a beat Game could never do justice to IMO.

reup gang is clipse and two dudes we never heard much from before then or after. never looked into how they hooked up with the brothers but they made some incredible mixtapes with them.

here's a couple of my favorite remixes off vol 1:

my fav part is the b#, D-maj part he hosed up the entire thing
like he didn't even catch that when Kendrick is singing "a minor" he's actually trying to sing that chord, but a bit off tune, over the a-minor instrumental
drakes thing had individual notes playing with each chord name not chords, and they're not even the right root notes like he/prod completely didn't understand what he was trying to build on
also b# isn't a real pitch it's just C
and the relative minor of Cmaj is A-min, lol

Is Drake going to the Met Gala? Seems like a public appearance that soon after Kendrick's onslaught of pedophile lines could only be a bad idea.

Agreed (at least of the three albums I've heard so far). My biggest regret is not getting into hip-hop sooner so I could enjoy it with everyone when things dropped. Its what makes this beef so much fun.

Atrocity Exhibition by Danny Brown is one of the top five best hip hop albums of the 2010s. On a good day and I'm feeling weird I'll say it's the best.

Could not get into it. I like a lot of Danny’s work but it didn’t vibe. Same as Earl’s stuff since his first album.

I don’t like the beats. I like the words, but I don’t like the music.

I feel like I’m in the minority because I honestly don’t “get it”

If Drake goes to the Met Gala, he's gonna be surrounded by people whispering "they not like us" under their breath. He should be holing up in the Embassy for as long as he can't stand it.

OTOH, where else is he supposed to show out with whoever he's currently with? Junior prom isn't for another couple weeks.
