Recent Events in Hip-Hop

[S O F I]

1. Kanye's new album is dope
2. J. Cole's Friday Night Lights mixtape came out and it's also dope
3. JAY ELECTRONICA SIGNS TO ROC NATION

That shit is so dope!


If it weren't for Roc Nation (Jay-Z, J. Cole, now Jay Elect), G.O.O.D Music, Curren$y, and Rick Ross, I probably wouldn't be bumping current rap music these days.

 

[Shadows]

and Tyga's new mixtape too is worth mentioning from what I heard so far.


Can't wait for the Kanye album though, even haters are saying they like it.

 

[UK_Thug]

4. Kno of Cunninlynguists dropped 'Death is Silent' and proves he's hip hops most underrated producer, and quite handy on the mic too.

there'll be a 5th when lupe's record label stops dicking about

 

[Tha_Wood]

anyone checked out that new james blunt album?

 

[THEV1LL4N]

i'll stick with djpremierblog.com theres always some dope stuff on there.

 

[Little Skittle]

and Joe Budden just dropped MM4

 

[S O F I]

Indeed. I'm just going to shelve his mixtape though until I'm in the right state of mind. I'm on some "CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER? SOO HIGH" and "last night I fell in love with a pornstar" shit.

 

[Da_Funk]

Mood Muzik 4 was good, but the other 3 are miles ahead of it...

 

[Little Skittle]

You can't be serious. MM1 is far and away the worst. It's definitely 2,4,3,1 but I suppose you could make a case for 2,3,4,1.

 

[S O F I]

It's hard to say which ones are the best because they're all good so I think saying MM1 is the worst is fucking blasphemous. WHAT THE FUCK?

All spectacular tracks:

MM1:

1. Breathe
2. Through the Wire
3. Find a Way
4. Sing for the Moment
5. last real nigga alive
6. rest in peace
7. heaven or hell

MM2:

1. are you in that mood yet
2. 6 minutes of death
3. the future
4. if i die tomorrow
5. world takeover
6. dumbout
7. three sides to a story
8. stained

MM3:

1. dear diary
2. family reunion
3. unforgiven
4. star inside of me
5. 5th gear

I can't make a proper evaluation of MM4 yet. But, If I were to say which one is the least best, it'd obviously be MM3. MM1 is really good and so is MM2. This should not be debatable. MM3 and MM4 feel too much like albums for my liking.

 

[Da_Funk]

You can't be serious. MM1 is far and away the worst. It's definitely 2,4,3,1 but I suppose you could make a case for 2,3,4,1.

The only standout tracks for me on 4 are sober and 1000 faces, possibly the intro...

 

[Little Skittle]

Sofi - How dare you leave out "Hiatus"? It's skippable because of the minute and a half intro, but once the music starts, it may be the best song on the mixtape, after "dear diary."

Da Funk - How about.... Aftermath, Come Along, Inseperable, Black Cloud, Remember the Titans, Dessert for Though, and Stuck in the Moment? I don't think MM4 has a standout track, because each song is so fucking good.

MM1 is my least listened to, which is probably why it's my least favorite...I'll try to give it more of a listen soon though. I'm not taking anything away from it, because I thoroughly enjoy it, but I just think the other 3 are on another level.

 

[Da_Funk]

I mean, I'll give it some more listens but from the few so far thats all I can really say about it. Then again, I haven't really been on a rap kick lately.

 

[THEV1LL4N]

1982 album came out.
Alchemist and Oh No (Gangrene) album came out.

Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday and Lloyd Banks' HFM2 are due out soon, both have leaked.

Big L's album is due out soon too.

 

[THEV1LL4N]

Just some new leaks:

Dr. Dre ft. Jay-Z & Partners In Rhyme - Under Pressure
This sounds like it has a proper chorus, but same beat - seems a little sped up, but worth checking out because of the new hook.
