rolling rap thread

kendrick is at 28k

"say wassup" is one of the best song of the year

i kind of feel like sales don't matter in rap unless something is positioned as a blockbuster make-or-break record for the artist or preceded by a big radio single. like on the facebook sandbox when people were lolling or acting shocked about pusha t's "quickie album that's part 2 of a free mixtape" or w/e not selling much, it's not like when they release his REAL album they won't be saying it's his 'solo debut,' it doesn't count.

still so weird to me that ppl were actually arguing about rap (let alone pusha t) on the facebook sandbox

RIP Slim Dunkin :(

oh dear god

if someone had to die at a V-Nasty video shoot why oh why couldn't it be V-Nasty

But you understand why people took exception to you using it? Or do you think they’re blowing it out of proportion?

Kind of both ways. I could see—I don’t know. Now that muthafuckas is telling me about it—I don’t know. I don’t feel like it has anything to do with race. I feel like people use that word the way I use it. You know what I’m sayin’? If I can’t say it, then basically nobody should be able to say it then, you know what I’m sayin’? I don’t give a fuck!

anyone else massively disappointed by Jeezy's TM103?

i only listened once on shitty headphones (since my porta pros broke) but i only liked 4-5 tracks, the jill scott was the standout on first listen tho

agree, 4-5 tracks. either it's a total grower or his worst album. does trapped (feat. Jill Scott) sample a horror soundtrack (the kids singing) or just sound like it?

new Jeezy is underwhelming as hell :(. the songs don't go hard, few have memorable hooks...his lyrics are p good, but the production doesn't fit his style at all.

so anyway WHO IS WHITE GURL

i dunno joints like 'all we do', 'everythang' and 'never be the same' are classic jeezy to me. i will admit i'm hoping the whole album is a grower tho :-/
