[DISCUSSION] Westside Gunn - FLYGOD (5 years later)

Posted: 10 Mar 2021 09:21 PM PST

AYO!

With 3 mixtapes from the Hitler Wears Hermes series deep, 2 collaborative mixtapes out (Hall & Nash with Conway (2015) and Griselda Ghost with Conway and Big Ghost (2015)) and an EP already in rotation (Roses are Red… So is Blood, (2016)), Buffalo's own Westside Gunn releases on March 11, 2016 his debut studio album, FLYGOD, through his own record label, Griselda Records.

The album includes guest appearances from Action Bronson, Benny the Butcher, Bro AA Rashid, Chase Deniro, Conway the Machine, Danny Brown, DJ Q-Bert, Keisha Plum, Mach-Hommy, Meyhem Lauren, Roc Marciano, Skyzoo, and Your Old Droog. The album's beats are produced by Daringer, The Alchemist, Apollo Brown, Camouflage Monk, Roc Marciano, Statik Selektah, and Tha God Fahim.

"A man with upper class taste and a lower class upbringing, Westside Gunn has never been shy to blur the lines between stardom and struggle. He will praise the name of the lord wearing the finest silks this side of the hemisphere, and a Gucci cancer-awareness bracelet dripping in jewels, only to have to drive-by a block 30 minutes later. It's not a direct concept album, but it accidentally becomes one in the process of a front-to-end listen, bouncing between luxury and grit for nearly an hour." – Rollo_P

[SERIOUS] New Victim Claims She Was ‘Drugged and Trafficked’ by T.I. and Tiny, Lawyer Says

Posted: 10 Mar 2021 01:05 PM PST

Vulture

Another woman has joined the victims accusing rapper T.I. and his wife Tiny Harris of sexual assault, abuse, and drugging. Lawyer Tyrone A. Blackburn told Vulture he is now representing "a survivor who was drugged and trafficked by [T.I. and Tiny] in Nevada, California, and Florida over three days." Blackburn previously sent letters to offices in California and Georgia calling for criminal investigations into T.I. (born Clifford Harris) and Tiny (born Tameka Cottle) on behalf of 11 initial victims. Since sending those letters, Blackburn has now spoken to six new victims, he said in an interview with the Daily Beast published March 9; only one of those victims, the new trafficking accuser, retained Blackburn, his representative confirmed to Vulture. "All she wants is justice, and we intend to fight until she gets it," Blackburn added in an email. A lawyer for T.I. and Tiny told Vulture his clients "continue to deny in the strongest possible terms these scurrilous and unsubstantiated accusations."

Blackburn sent the letters in Georgia and California on February 19, before speaking to the New York Times about his clients' allegations on February 28. In the letters, Blackburn described "eerily similar events of sexual abuse, forced ingestion of illegal narcotics, kidnapping, terroristic threats, and false imprisonment," with victims including a 17-year-old intern to T.I. and Tiny's studio and an Air Force veteran. T.I. and Tiny denied the allegations through their lawyer at the time, who called them "unsubstantiated and baseless." Blackburn told the Beast he has had conversations with two offices about his clients' allegations. "If I was a prosecutor, I'd have brought charges already," he said.

The new victim marks the first time Blackburn has accused T.I. and Tiny of "trafficking," and also expands their allegations into Nevada, after his letters previously referenced Florida along with Georgia and California. In the email to Vulture, Blackburn called the Harrises "a cancer in the community," going on to say, "it is high time that law enforcement puts an end to their reign of terror."

Steve Sadow, the lawyer for T.I. and Tiny, repeated his previous statement that the claims would not manifest into charges upon being investigated. "We await Blackburn exposing his anonymous accusers to the light of day, by revealing their names, so we will be in a position to confront their allegations," Sadow told Vulture. "By Blackburn choosing instead to misuse the media for his own publicity and hiding the identities of his clients from the public and us, he makes it impossible for us to do so now."

In addition to the victims represented by Blackburn, dozens of victims began to accuse T.I. and Tiny of sexual assault, abuse, and drugging in late January on Instagram. Sabrina Peterson collected those allegations on her Instagram after she first accused T.I. of once holding her at gunpoint. Peterson, also co-represented by Blackburn, has brought a defamation suit against T.I. and Tiny over their denials of her claims; through a separate lawyer, T.I. and Tiny also denied making any defamatory statements.

Inside California’s new era of rap

Posted: 10 Mar 2021 04:45 PM PST

California will always be known for the gangsta rap and g-funk from the 90s, but little does the world know of the massively underrated scene coming out of Cali right now. Obviously i cant fit everybody thats hot on this list, but ill try my best

Drakeo the Ruler is without a doubt the hottest in the state right now. They were tryna give him life but he recently got freed a few months ago. He just got a Drake feature but i dont think that even cracks his top 20 best songs. I cant put too much songs because honestly drakeo could have his whole own post but here are a few. With features on the way from a lot of big artists, the only way is up now for Drakeo.

Drakeo The Ruler - Too Icey

Drakeo the Ruler - Impatient Freestyle

Drakeo The Ruler - Mr Everything

If Drakeo's the hottest in Cali, then no doubt Bris was a close second. Although he tragically got gunned down in June of 2020, hes still making noise and getting views. Quite possibly the best rapper out of Sacramento since Mozzy, ive never heard another rapper with a flow or energy similar to bris. Truly one of a kind. The majority of his discography is hard but heres just a few of his slaps.

Bris- Panhandling

Bris- Mayhem

EBK Young Joc x Bris x Armani Depaul - Jokes Up

Bris - Need Hammy Bris - First 42 Hour Freestyle

Zaybang is one of the better known rappers coming out of cali right now so is his frequent collaborator Lil Bean. More of a singy type vibe then the other rappers on this list but still hard.

Zaybang - No Relations

Lil Bean - Vital

Lil Bean - Down 2 Ride

EBK Hotboiiz are a rap group coming out of Southeast Stockton. Although their pretty good as a group, I feel like 2-3 of them are levels above the rest.

EBK Young Joc - Do That One Dance

Young Slo-Be ft. Ebk Young Joc, Ebk Juvie, and Bris - This Aint Nun New

Ebk JaayBo - 2100

Mac J ft Young SloBe, EBK Young Joc- Minswell

Young SloBe ft Ebk Trey B, Ebk Young Joc - 2100 Shell Kases

Peysoh is a relatively new rapper coming out of Maywood, LA, California. At only 17 he is the youngest rapper on this list and also one of the fastest rising.

Peysoh - Life I Live

Peysoh - 6Block

Dsteez is yet another rapper from Sacramento with bars.

Dsteez - Oops

Dsteez- Im Back

Dsteez ft. Mo3 - Wake the City up

If gangsta rap had a baby in 2021 it would be Uzzy Marcus. Although very widely hated because of his beef with Bris theres no denying he goes hard.

Uzzy Marcus - 42k

Uzzy Marcus - 7.62s

Uzzy Marcus - D.O.A

Part 2 coming soon

Top Comments in Release Thread

Been waiting on this, Took Her To the O is nuts

Its just another Craz6 Story tbh but a lot of this tape is dope as fuck

Von is so underrated man. One of the hardest rappers 🔥🔥😴

G Herbo song is crazy

Fr. That beat reminds me of some shit mixtape weezy would've killed. Von and herbo both do there thing on it as well

This is going to get slept on, Von is fire.

Damnnnn I'm only at the first track and that's fucking fireeeeee brooo i knew he gor potential but damn

The cover lmfao

3 A.M. is fireee

Durk sounds so smooth on Down Me

not really fucking with the YNW feature though

Idk that "light you up like sketchers" line is kind of hard. Honestly thought von was the weak link on that track. He doesn't fit that vibe

Was wondering if this was even gonna make the front page lmao. People on this shit don't even listen to Durk but let's get it

He definitely improved with this project

Yea this hard

he went locco

the RYM reviews are in French so this the best we got

Madvillain Interview (2014) - DOOM crashes a Madlib interview w/ Audio

Posted: 10 Mar 2021 02:42 PM PST

http://www.bonafidemag.com/cover-story-madlib-interview/

^ Link has both the full interview text and the 46 min of audio. The original issue of the mag was published July 2014.

http://www.bonafidemag.com/magazine/bonafide-magazine-09/

Sobering quote from highlighted in the magazine.

"There's gonna' be Madvillain records for years, as long as I can stay alive." - DOOM

Also super interesting to hear the very beginnings of Madlib's relationship with Freddie Gibbs. Piñata came out in March 2014. You can hear DOOM joke about being a "fly on the wall" when Madlib is asked about Gibbs. To me this does give the interview a genuine feeling that he didn't know DOOM was coming. Since he goes from asking about Gibbs to asking about the Jaylib project and you can tell he feels weird asking about them with DOOM there.

Edit - Yes it becomes obvious that DOOM showed up to eat oysters lmao
