What's your favourite type of Apple? I'm preferable to a pink lady or maybe a nice Fuji

Watch some Street Figher while you mull it over

How do you kick someone from discord? There's this Scandanavian idiot named Wilfredo and he simply will not leave no matter how hard I try to convince him

Any ideas for the sidebar or sub in general? Don't post em, don't care

Shoutout to /u/chrussell for being the best mod, I think we should all say why we're thankful for him in this thread

[DISCUSSION] Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - Piñata (5 Years Later)

Posted: 17 Mar 2019 07:02 PM PDT

Piñata is the first collaborative album by rapper Freddie Gibbs and producer Madlib.

In a press release in 2014, Freddie Gibbs described Piñata as "a gangster Blaxploitation film on wax. I will show you my flaws, I'll show you what I've done wrong and what I've fucked up at.... I don't regret shit, but I'll show you the things I'm not proud of. I'm about to show niggas how to rap again."

Madlib added "My stuff, it ain't fully quantized… it has more of a human feel, so it might slow down or speed up. So you have to be the type of rapper, like MF Doom or Freddie, who can catch that, or else you'll be sounding crazy."

The album was released to widespread acclaim from critics, and has gone on to be regarded by fans as one the classic hip-hop albums of this decade.

Do producers ever get paid?

Posted: 17 Mar 2019 07:48 PM PDT

I love watching Genius's "deconstructed" vids where they go through how producers make the beats for rappers. But half the time the producer is like "yeah I send the beat to __ and a week later it was on the top 100. I heard it on the radio". Do these guys make a living? Their work is so crazy important that it blows me away to think they might not be getting compensated for that shit.
