I loved OF's stuff in 2011 and 2012, when Mike G released Ali and Mellowhype released Blackendwhite. All of them were making great music. But then Mike G got lazy and barely released poo poo for 3 years, and the music he did release was not great. His rapping switched to uninteresting, slow mumble double tracked over itself. Probably the best post-Ali song was Chanel from Award Tour EP. He switches up his flow and seems excited to be rapping. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12Nhcc61hBI At least Domo has gotten better and better with every release. I'm always excited to see more Domo. Although he was great even on his first release Rolling Papers. Domier is a classic boast track, great flow and interesting rhymes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bk99TK9GTIg Under the Influence 1 and 2 are fantastic as well. No Idols I'm not in to too much, Alchemist's beats are very static and very repetitive. Elimination Chamber is a great song though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=to1qOl_WY2E Vince Staples is one of the best things to come from OF for sure. I know he was never officially part of OF, although it seems like he was hanging out with Earl and Mike G a lot and occasionally popping up on these early tapes. Every time he has a verse he takes over the track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re-iKOvz8LI. Even if you have a problem with the content, for 1 of his first verses recorded it's astonishing, He really has improved dramatically since then, for sure Vince is going to go a long way. Stolen Youth EP is one of my favourites, Mac Miller makes all the beats as Larry Fisherman and raps on a few tracks, but Vince is definitely the star of the show not matter who else features. The outro to this tape is one of the Greatest Of A Time rap outros https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9GkrK-_OZo (the GOAT intro is XXX by Danny Brown). Vinces most recent EP is exciting. Crazy production, awesome raps, and more than anything Vince just sounds hungry. edit: missed some links DonnieBravo fucked around with this message at 20:28 on Mar 2, 2015 |
