[DISCUSSION] Chance The Rapper - The Big Day (ONE WEEK LATER)

Posted: 02 Aug 2019 11:42 AM PDT

I think nobody's posted this yet, what have you guys come to think after 1 week now that the dust has settled a bit. I personally didn't hate it as much as most other people, but it's definitely one of the most disappointing releases from a serious artist I've seen in a while.

Wiz Khalifa performs “See You Again” as a tribute to Mac Miller and Jimmy Wopo in Pittsburgh

Posted: 02 Aug 2019 12:02 PM PDT

A very touching moment at the concert. Sadly it doesn't seem that Wiz even thought to contact Jimmy Wopo's family about it though (as you can read about in the comments).

[DISCUSSION] Rich Brian - The Sailor (ONE WEEK LATER)

Posted: 02 Aug 2019 09:23 AM PDT

Thoughts?

This is honestly one of my favorite releases this year. The production on this album ranges from hard af to beautiful. Brian still has some corny lyrics (but who doesn't?) but besides that I loved the flows he used and he really showcased his versatility. He has a lot of potential going forward, especially with 88rising guiding him.

Overall I was impressed and have been relistening almost daily. 8/10 for me.

Fav tracks are Confetti and Slow Down Turbo

[DISCUSSION] Young Dolph & Key Glock - Dum & Dummer (One week later)

Posted: 02 Aug 2019 03:23 PM PDT

At first I wasn't super impressed by Key Glock on Dum & Dummer (compared to Dolph who killed every track I feel) but actually after a week I can say he's grown on me.

This is probably the best trap project I heard this year with Sli'merre. Yeah they don't switch things up a lot it's 22 bangers straight up. A good few of them are gonna stay in my playlists.

Songs that I liked most were If I Ever, 1 Hell Of A Life, Blacc Loccs, Baby Joker, Juicy, Water on Water on Water, Back At It, Cutthroat Committee, Crashin Out, Dum & Dummer

[DISCUSSION] YBN Cordae - The Lost Boy (ONE WEEK LATER)

Posted: 02 Aug 2019 01:13 AM PDT

Been one week, what's your thoughts on Cordae's debut album?

Me personally, I'm still listening to it, like every song and can count myself as a new fan of Cordae now. I get early Kanye vibes from this album and can't wait to see what's next. If we're throwing numbers out, it's a high 7 or 8 out of 10 for me.

Also, Chance's verse on this was better than most of his new album, so there's that.
