HHH Favourites List Voting Thread #3

Posted: 05 Feb 2018 02:53 PM PST

About 7 months have passed since the last voting so we will now have the 4th round of voting in order to make sure the list reflects the current state of the sub.

The voting will be done in contest mode, so be sure to search (control+f) for the project you want to vote on before posting it yourself, otherwise the vote will not count for anything. Also make sure to check the current list as there is no point in voting on something that is already on there: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Qpbd-fHbMyfWXlWPRA_XfgzYayc8cIjn8J9CuL-aNpE/edit#gid=0

As time has passed some of the albums may seem out of place on the list as the artist or album may no longer be heavily discussed. So for this thread you can either post asking to add or remove an album based on your perceived popularity of it here.

The projects that make it onto the favourites list are the ones that songs cannot be posted off of. This is not limited to albums so feel free to submit mixtapes or EPs as well.

Post Format

Add: Artist name - Project name

or

Remove: Artist name - Project name

International Artist Feature #1

Posted: 05 Feb 2018 04:14 PM PST

International Artist Feature #1

What's good hhh, I was asked to strengthen the mod team on the international side of things, so as a start, I'll be posting this (for now) bi-weekly series that will feature an international (non-US) artist. As a Dutchie/Nederlander/Swamp-German my expertise is mostly Dutch artists, so, if you have a problem with our beautiful language, be sure to check out the PSA at the end of the post concerning submitting your own international artist feature.

Now, without further ado, here is the first artist to feature: Idaly

The first artist to feature in this series is Amsterdam's own Idaly. He is a relatively new artist, so instead of trying to describe his style I'll just take you through his career so far, which is probably the best way to get to know him.

Idaly came up surrounded by Dutch talent from a young age. People like Adje, Hef, Willie Wartaal and Reverse all found their way to his neighbourhood of IJburg at some point in the last 10 years, allowing him to sit in on studio sessions from an early age. Reverse took him under his wing and to this day I believe they still work together very closely.

While Reverse gave Idaly what I think are his first official song placements on his own album Retro in 2014, I think the early Idaly tracks that are more important to understanding his sound are those that he made with his IJburg/Oost neighbour/friend/colleague Bokoesam and legendary producer Garrincha.

Idaly ft. Bokoesam – Waar Werken We Mee (prod. Garrincha) is the first song I remember hearing by Idaly, and is also when I started bugging him on Twitter for a mixtape release. He gave me the classic 'soon' answer, but it turned out I had to wait some 2 years for the release of his first solo project. In this same period (late 2014/early 2015) songs like Bokoesam ft. Idaly & Ronnie Flex – Infrarood (prod. Krankjoram & Garrincha), Idaly ft. Bokoesam – De Safari (prod. Garrincha) and Idaly – Die Berg (prod. Garrincha) were released. These songs (and a few others from the same period), even though they never reached a very large audience, combined with his appearances on the Reverse album, were enough to get a buzz going.

This buzz resulted in him joining the New Wave project set up by the label Top Notch in spring of 2015. The impact of this project on the Dutch pop music landscape and the hip hop scene is a thing for another time, but for Idaly it meant features on multiple songs with millions of views like No Go Zone. In the summer of 2015 Idaly, together with Bokoesam, GRGY, Yung Nnelg and Garrincha released a project as a group under the name Veldentaal.

I believe it is around this time that he started producing/making beats as well, which I think is an important step in the creation of his own sound moving on from the successful collaborative projects onto his own solo releases. In the remainder of 2015 and the start of 2016 he featured on a few songs like Bokoesam ft. Idaly – Heleboel Money (prod. Spanker & Garrincha) and Bokoesam ft. Idaly – Jij & Ik (prod. Spanker & Garrincha) on Bokoesams EP.

In august of 2016 it was announced that Idaly had signed to Top Notch and was releasing his debut EP 'Eindelijk' (translated: Finally). The project, consisting of 7 tracks, enjoyed moderate success, with the biggest songs being the title track Eindelijk and the collab with Bokoesam, Raplife. My favourite song from the project would have to be Wassup, which is a bit more reminiscent of the style of his first few tracks.

In the next 12 months he did the promo rounds on his first EP and enjoyed success with another collab with Bokoesam, Shawty, on Sams debut album, which would later appear on Idalys second solo EP as well (I'm still not quite sure why). In november of 2017 he released his second EP 'NU' with Verdient (prod. Reverse & Andy Ricardo) as a single. This project again only achieved moderate success (which I don't think is his fault), but he is still very young (20 I believe), so there's enough time for things to happen.

Since the release of NU his productions have started to gain a little ground, see JoeyAK ft. Idaly & Boef – Balmain (prod. Idaly) for example, and I understand he has now started working on his next project with Reverse.

PSA: While I can make endless threads on Dutch artists and a few French/Spanish ones, I want to include artists from as many different countries as possible in this series. If you want a non-US artist to be featured, write up a detailed post on the artist and PM it to me, and, if there aren't too many submissions it will be featured in the series
