What are your thoughts of the album? I think it's one of my favorite projects from Denzel, it's short and to the point, and filled with bangers. I'd love to hear everyone's opinion on this one. submitted by /u/tcpotato [link] [comments] |

| [DISCUSSION] Young Thug - I’m Up (5 Years Later) Posted: 05 Feb 2021 10:05 AM PST I'm Up is a mixtape by American rapper Young Thug.[13] It was released on February 5, 2016, by 300 Entertainment and Atlantic Records. The mixtape features guest appearances from Trouble, Ralo, Lil Durk, Lil Duke, Solo Lucci, Young Butta, Quavo, Offset, Dora and Dolly (Young Thug's sisters). P4K review I'm Up doesn't muster up the highs of the Slime Season series—the infectiousness of "Best Friend," the sublime structuring of "Draw Down," or the woozy euphoria of "Raw"—but Thug manages to compile many of his best attributes into a tightly-wound 38 minutes. submitted by /u/RafiakaMacakaDirk [link] [comments] |

| [FIRST IMPRESSIONS] Pooh Shiesty - Shiesty Season Posted: 05 Feb 2021 03:04 PM PST Gucci Mane signee Pooh Shiesty drops his debut album. RYM Review: The Memphis up-&-comer delivers a decent full-length debut Pooh Shiesty is a 21 year old rapper from Memphis, Tennessee who broke out just last year off his viral single "Main Slime". This resulted in Gucci Mane signing him to his Atlantic Records imprint 1017 Worldwide & after multiple appearances on the label's recent showcase compilations, he's now being granted a full-length debut. The intro talks about seeing through fake shit over an icy trap beat whereas the next song "Back in Blood" with Lil Durk finds the 2 talking about murder over an instrumental with some foreboding piano melodies. The track "Guard Up" talks about fucking up anyone in his way over an acoustic guitar along with some rubbery bass while the song "Ugly" with Gucci Mane sees the duo talking about how everyone with them is thuggin' over a trap beat with some distressing keyboards. The track "Neighbors" with Big30 finds the 2 talking about being real g's over a wintry instrumental while the song "50 Shots" talks about getting it in at the trap over an elegiac beat. The track "No Chorus" talks about death over a pessimistic instrumental while the song "Box of Churches" with 21 Savage sees the duo talking about bringing the smoke to 'em over a spectral beat. The track "Making a Mess" with Big30 & Veeze finds the trio talking about romance & guns over a bassy instrumental with this horn section occasionally popping in & out while the song "Choppa Way" talks about staying the same despite being rich now over an ominous beat. The track "Take a Life" with Foogiano sees the 2 talking about how people don't know what it's like to kill someone over an instrumental with a prominent woodwind sample while the song "Gone MIA" talks about all the pussies out there over a triumphant beat. The track "Big 13 Gang" with Choppa Wop & Lil Hank finds the 3 talking about being a threat over a cinematic instrumental while the song "Drop Some Shit" talks about trying to make it out before he gets locked up over a cloudy beat. The track "See Red" talks about blood being around him over a trap/rock fusion while the song "Master P" compares himself to the No Limit mogul of the same name over a heady beat from Tay Keith. The album ends with the strip club anthem "Twerksum", which originally appeared on the So Icy Gang compilation back in October. Of all the recent 1017 signings, Pooh Shiesty has stood out to me the most. However, this album is just decent at best. He has a great presence on the mic & his songwriting is definitely ear-grabbing, but the production is just middle of the road & most of the features kinda weigh it down. submitted by /u/HHHRobot [link] [comments] |

| R&B Artist Spotlight: Kelela Posted: 05 Feb 2021 07:14 AM PST Spotify
Instagram
Youtube Channel Music Style: Electronic Alternative R&B that incorporates electronic music from the UK. Kelela Mizanekristos is someone who takes Electronic R&B to a whole new level. She takes R&B and combines it with UK electronics and the final product is amazing. Before we get to that, let's first talk a little bit about Kelela. She's a second generation Ethiopian-American who's always felt a connection to her African heritage. It's very present in her music and image because both incorporate a lot of Afrofuturism. This can be seen her in music videos for LMK and Rewind. At a surface level, Kelela's music could seem as just simply Electro-R&B, but it's way much more than that. Her music invokes a sensual feeling by using a combination of Electronic music and R&B. She can channel atmospheric (Floor Show, Gomenasai, Cherry Coffee), bass heavy (Send Me Out, All The Way Down), and glitchy sounds (Cut 4 Me, Guns & Synths) that will make you notice something new anytime you listen to her music. Kelela also tends to use unconventional sounds in her music. It consists of everything from the sound of a soda can opening (LMK), ice being dropped in an empty glass cup (Keep it Cool), or a glass bottle breaking (Enemy). She also shows that she can work with darker sounds (A Message) while still keeping the same flair. Another notable trait in her music is that she incorporates tempo and sounds changes within her songs like in Better (ambient sound to distorted reverbed electronic sound), Take Me Apart (starts minimalist then turns to repeated sub-basses after a bass drop), and Frontline (minimalist to slight bass sound with 808s). As for lyrics, Kelela's music deals with the various stages of a relationship. From anything to meeting someone new, breaking up with them, or just wanting a simple booty call. While this topic is nothing particularly new for artists, what makes a good writer is not what they write about, it's how they write about it. Kelela's writing is very direct and straight to the point. She's not making you jump through hoops to understand her, she lets you know what she expects from day 1 and makes no apologies for it. One interesting aspect of Kelela's writing is her one-liners. Her one-liners often stand out the most in her lyrics. Lines like "I need someone who knows. Someone who gives a fuck", "Silly s*it we go through. I cop my keys and I'm out", "Probably you've had the same damn thing at the same damn time", and "Afraid of falling knowing that I could never live without" from Enemy, Blue Light, Enough, and Take Me Apart showcase this. One more thing to talk about Kelela is her singing voice. Now her voice may not be as super powerful and fuller compared to other R&B singers, but having a big voice isn't everything. One thing Kelela has is control and the understanding of her voice, both which are some of the most important skills to have as a singer. If you don't believe me, check out this little video here. It's not only that, Kelela has a great range as well. She can even sing whistle notes, like in LMK and Gomenasai. If your interesting in the more UK Electronic music side, check out Cut 4 Me.If you want more sensual Electronic Alternative R&B, listen to Hallucinogen. For sensual Electronic Alternative R&B and incorporating more of that UK electronic sound, listen to Take Me Apart. Some of my favorite Kelela songs are LMK, Enemy, Take Me Apart, Rewind, Better, Truth or Dare, Keep it Cool, Blue Light, A Message, Enough, Cut 4 Me, Floor Show, Turn to Dust, Jupiter, Waitin, and All The Way Down. Here are some good performances: Radio 1's Piano Sessions, Pitchfork Music Festival 2014, UO Live If You use discord, make sure to check out the R&B Discord Server. If you want to be in a place to discuss R&B music.
