I kind of like gritty battle tracks. Ten years ago we had Gucci's Truth. More recently NBA YB's I Hate Youngboy is fun when you get over expecting bars.

It's funny to see new artists being inspired by that era. "Yeah, Black Kray was a big influence on me". Felt so recent but it was 10 years ago.

I knew I was getting old when Young Thug started showing up on the 'Influenced By' field on the Wikipedia pages of popular rappers.

On that note the best song title in hip hop history has to be 'Constantly Hating'.

This didn't get attention so I'll vomment:

Nicki Minaj is living up to the Shawn Carter bit about 40 being the new 20. I still expect her to be creative and in touch.

What I fault her for, and have a hard time getting past, is A) her positive reference to Ellen Degeneres on a previous diss track, B) her mistaking a pap smear to mean ditty genitals not once but twice.

Then again Sosa let's us know he can have sex with our mothers on at least three different tracks.

Thank you for the run-down on Boosie.

For some reason seeing Thugger's name made me wonder where the third big Rich Gang star is right now. Haven't heard from Rich Homie Quan in a minute. He had some nice wordplay on mix-tapes.

Maybe like with Roddy Ricch you just can't have Rich in your name and expect to stay paid.

If you don't like trap rap too much check out this 80 minute trap rap magnum opus by 40 year old Academy award winner Juicy J and these things on it: 1. Lots of variety! Sick smooth breaks from the Luger beats and even the Luger ones get weird one of them has like a weird prepared piano!! 2. Most beautiful trap rap love song ever written "Lucky Charm" ode to the special girl Juicy J found that also likes to smoke weed and say stuff about it 3. Cool refs to PS2 and cough syrup, that's one fine day off of 4th grade if you ask me 4. When he says the girl can't have the racks unless she picks that poo poo up off the floor it sounds like he's saying demands to his daughter for dinner time

Listening to It's Almost Dry again. Guess it grew on me. Not as nice as Daytona but at least it's full album length.

Let's not talk about Kanye West but I think it was him that started making records around twenty minutes long during a phase.

Daytona is the perfect rap album. 21 minutes, not a second wasted.

No real skips. There are a couple tracks I want to put on repeat but you might as well play the whole album again.

Infrared is so catchy. Duppy rivaled it lyrically. And then Pusha went for a TKO. But for the record my favourite diss based on real life information is from Rick Ross of all people:

"Burn the house down, you gotta buy another

Someone more in tune tell me if we'll see another Frank Ocean album anytime soon. I just started my love affair and want more. Even with the suggestions itt.

I think chanel ORANGE is superior to Blonde. It has a number of really solid runs especially 'Crack Rock' through 'Pyramids' and 'Lost'.

But the opener to Blonde... yeah. It starts off inane and then "You must be on that white like Othello".

Do deals for rappers include clauses they can be dropped or penalized for public bad behaviour? I'm sure there is a clause that if you go to prison for too long you can't hop out and just expect to do album X of a Y album deal.

I have a serious soft spot for rap song titles that are entertaining in their own right even if you never listen to the song.

All My Life is the first Lil Durk track I liked more than the tiniest bit. His cadence at the beginning is like an instrument against the beat. Like the strong syllables land between the strong drums. J. Cole's verse switches up the flow.

Oh man. This is wild. I'd never heard any Durk like this. He sounds so much like a GBE or 300 rapper circa the early 2010s. (Although maybe that's just the Chicago sound from the time?) Comparing Dis Ain't What U Want to modern Durk tracks in terms of the lyrics and voice he uses is like the difference between, appropriately, old and new Sosa. And in terms of physical appearance between old old and new Wayne.

e: The top comment on the YT video is "The amount of people dead or doing life in this video is crazy man" :(


Wonder if Malice pulls a Ma$e and gets back into violent lyrics on his own work or is it just for the reunion.

in cannabis veritas

I don't think weed makes most people lie under its influence. Talk poo poo for sure. Lil Wayne said he was going to live in France to learn French and rap in that language; and no doubt he had every intention of doing so while so blasted he didn't even remember when an intervier questioned him on it. But he didn't say he had tickets booked to Paris.

That said I might actually enjoy a Killer Mike and André 3000 collaboration and I don't even like KM apart from like one mixtape or album.

For what it's worth a lot of it other than the fact he texts them could be in their head. They're kids and fans even if they're celebrities themselves. So talk of a "special connection" in interviews could be one sided.

That said most people never get in the position where people question exactly what your intentions are in texting a child because they don't text children.

I like Stranger Things as much as the next person but if one of their managers gave me their number and said it's fine to call they'll appreciate talking to me I'd be like 'Oh. That's alright. But tell them they did a good job and to keep it up.'.

No new music to add just an anecdote about how someone I knew in medical school was sending me something sensitive & password locked, and he made the hint "best Lil Wayne album case sensitive no spaces".

We hung out a bit in grad but we didn't know each other like that. So I'm proud of him for having the objectively correct take on this and proud of myself that he thought I could catch it in one.

Yeah it was specifically best album. And when I say I got it in one I can't really brag because I did have to look up whether it's spelled out as The or Tha.

It was the 3rd. Although I know that's gotten more controversial in recent years.
