Music: The Official Hip-Hop Thread: Part VX

Jay Electronica is going to have the AOTY and it only takes one listen for it to be obvious.

It's that good.

LOL

Not with Lil Uzi Vert dropping his deluxe album

edit:

I was just trolling for the sake of it because the new Uzi goes hard but I put on the new Jay Electronica and my god is that some hot trash. It definitely sounds like the music “real hiphop heads” would consider AOTY though.

If you think talking about f***ing girls and doing drugs is good then power to you. Jay Electronica's new album sucks but is still better lil uzi vert.

I think Jay Electronica’s album is great but also underwhelming at the same time if that makes sense.

I find it kinda hilarious that after a 10 year wait the first person you hear rapping on this album is not Jay Elec.

 

[lottster14]

Mine are: Joyner Lucas, Eminem, Nas, NF, Kanye, Jay-Z, John River,

Nas, Big L, Big Pun

off the top of my head in a general order

andre 3000
kendrick
lil wayne
jay z

ofc there's biggie, pac, kanye, em etc but I think for me I probably prefer like you said Pusha T or Cudi or even like asap just as far as what I enjoy listening to. Kanye at his prime was def top 5 material especially if counting production value

 

[Stylizer1]

Black Thought
Pharoahe Monch
NAS
Mos Def
Q-Tip

 

[Mikeaveli]

My top five:

El-P
MF DOOM
Aesop Rock
Ghostface Killah
Q-Tip

Other favourites that I love but don't have the discography to be in the top 5:

GZA
Nas
Raekwon
Big L
Prodigy

Kind of, but a lot different.

I personally liked the Jay Elec. Album.

CJ Flys new album aint bad either. I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to it front to back again, but I'd give it a 6.7/10

 

[tacogeoff]

really liking what Aitch has been doing. kid has swagger on a trillion.

Tay Keith killed this beat.

a couple little jabs at drake by Pusha

"To the Victor goes the spoils like I'm Oladipo
All the record label cheat codes, none for me though
Shout to Ebro, and fine rhyme lovers who don't buy it
Petition but don't riot, the critics be so quiet
To question my content is nonsense It undermines all I've accomplished
They say all's fair in love and war
You say I moved the line just to score, head shot to keep Adidas pure
One man army like Ason "

This has been traced back to the beginnings of rap:

Fire emoji.

the whole album “Epidemic” goes sooo hard front to back

 

[Stylizer1]

This has been traced back to the beginnings of rap:

There is stuff from the 30's that could be considered rap too.

 

[Peter Zezel]

I haven't listened to the full Jay Electronica album but that neverending story track is nice. The song definitely has a Madlibs/Gibbs vibe which is probably the freshest hip hop I've heard in a while.

It's not really hip-hop but the couple new songs I've heard from Thundercat are nice. Dragonball Durag is a good laugh and solid song.

So tired of this beef. Shut up already Pusha. And if Drake has said anything lately (nothing that I’m aware of) shut up too, even if I’m a Drake fan.

I don’t know why I read HHH still but I guess it’s because I don’t know where else to go. It’s just a circle jerk of who to like and who to hate.

I like Uzi but if this is the AOTY, 2020 really needs to just end because what a dogshit year.
