If you're looking for a recommendation give a description/music link/artist so that other people will know what you want.

Example: I want to hear an artist that sounds like old Kanye (you can get more specific but that's enough imo). And then someone will respond with X, Y, and Z

You can also recommend an artist/project/scene

Example: You guys should check out DJ Mustard's mixtape Ketchup RIYL (recommended if you like) post-hyphy and minimalistic west coast beats.

Remember, the point of this thread is to share music, try not to post stuff that's already really popular unless it answers someone's question.

Also the more descriptive you guys are with your posts the easier it is to help you find what you want, just stating an artists name isn't that helpful since you might only like one specific aspect of that artist's music.

[DISCUSSION] Vince Staples - FM! (1 Year Later)

Posted: 02 Nov 2019 07:46 AM PDT

On November 2nd, 2018 Vince Staples released his third album FM!

Just over a year on from the critical triumph that was Big Fish Theory, Vince Staples makes a surprise but welcome return with FM!, a fun concept album. While some artists side projects between main projects can fade into insignificance, in 22 brief minutes Staples still manages to make a lasting impression.

Although this project is short, Vince packs in the creativity we have come to expect from him. FM! plays out as a radio programme, with a few skits that resemble radio transitions, with the running theme being Vince urging listeners to call in to win tickets to see Kehlani live. With how short the run-time is it is impressive that Staples manages to tie the few tracks included together with a plot making the project feel more cohesive.

As far as the actual musical content the Long Beach rapper delivers, FM! contains some of his catchiest material to date. While the overall themes and sound don't stray too far from where Big Fish Theory left off, this is not a bad thing at all as we get more of the sharp production we have come to expect from Vince Staples. From opening track Feels Like Summer, Staples continues to demonstrate why he is streets ahead of his competition. One element that is perhaps improved since his last album is the hooks. On this track and throughout the album the choruses pack a punch and refuse to be forgotten.

Thematically, this is familiar territory for Vince, though again this is no weakness as his takes on gang violence are always sincere and compelling. Once again he finds the balance between humour and addressing important issues and it creates a perfect blend of a project that is a fun listen but also a more rewarding listen if you so desire.

As with Big Fish Theory, the highlight of FM! is without a doubt the production. From the sinister bass of Relay with the accompaniment of Vince's snarling delivery or the bouncing beat of FUN! that almost sounds out of place but, when paired with Vince, fits perfectly and makes for another stand out moment. With each release, Staples is becoming more and more creative and exciting and even with what could have been a throwaway project, he shows no signs of phoning it in.

For what this project is, it doesn't leave much to be desired except more of the same from Vince Staples. In fact, the only weak spots on FM! are when Vince is sidelined: Jay Rock, Kehlani and E-40 all hold their own. On the whole, Vince Staples reminds us of what he is capable of and if this is what he does in his spare time then his next output is one to be excited for.

What are your thoughts on this album?

How does it hold up 1 year later?

https://imgur.com/a/z0FfEoi sorry for the bad quality pic. Along with those there were posters behind him with #cole2020 and #thefalloff

Finished watching Cole an hour ago but it seems like no ones posted it yet. I'm extremely hyped for it ever since he announced it last year.

[DISCUSSION] Lil Wayne - Tha Block Is Hot (20 Years Later)

Posted: 02 Nov 2019 03:54 AM PDT

Lil Wayne's solo debut album was released on November 2, 1999. Still remember catching the "new joint" on 106&Park after getting home from school. Teenage Weezy made a lot of dope songs, "Fuck Tha World" is still one of his best tracks. The lead single was recently sampled by NBA Youngboy, and "Lights Off" still goes.

By this time Wayne was a multi-platinum rapper and came up with popular terms like "Drop it like it's hot" & "bling bling", all before he was even 18 years old. Before this he didn't even curse on his records. Weezy really the kid rapper that made it.
