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 production" (you can get more specific but usually enough). And then someone will respond with recommendations X, Y, and Z.

You can also leave a top level comment recommending an artist/project/scene that you think others might like if they like X, Y, and Z.

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.

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

Pitchfork Reviews Kendrick Lamar's Mr. Morale &The Big Steppers

Posted: 15 May 2022 09:08 PM PDT

https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/kendrick-lamar-mr-morale-and-the-big-steppers/

On his fifth album, Kendrick retreats from the limelight and turns to himself, highlighting his insecurities and beliefs. It's ambitious, impressive, and a bit unwieldy.

Kendrick Lamar is a giddy dramatist. He loves to pack his music with perspectives, personifying his many characters and muses with distinct voices, cadences, and beat switches that bring them to life. Those virtuosic tics have made him one of rap's most celebrated storytellers and stylists; he is the first and only rapper to have won a Pulitzer Prize. For some, Kendrick's elastic narration and indignant dispatches on Black life have made him a figure of supreme moral authority in hip-hop—a role he spurns on his fifth studio album. Kendrick spends Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers gleefully immolating his cherished reputation, swinging between caustic taunts and plaintive confessions over slick funk and soul production that gleams like shards of a mirror. The double album offers rap's most jarring heel turn since Future cut loose on Monster, taking an unfocused but probing look at Kendrick's most elusive character: himself.

[DISCUSSION] Killer Mike - R.A.P Music 10th Year Anniversary

Posted: 14 May 2022 10:00 PM PDT

Killer Mike's collab album with El-P was released 10 years ago.

From Wikipedia:

R.A.P. Music is the fifth studio album by American rapper Killer Mike. It was released through Williams Street Records on May 15, 2012. The "R.A.P." in the album's title is a backronym for "Rebellious African People". Production was handled by rapper and producer Jaime "El-P" Meline; the album was the first collaboration between Killer Mike and El-P, who would later form the critically acclaimed duo Run the Jewels.

How do you feel about the album 10 years later? Are there any songs you think didn't age well?

[DISCUSSION] Backlash from Kodak Black features on Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers

Posted: 16 May 2022 01:03 AM PDT

Hip-Hop needs to decide how we feel about artists with some nasty cases.

Kendrick getting backlash from featuring Kodak Black is interesting.

This is not in defense of Kendrick. Just a conversation about Hip-Hop picking and choosing when to care about things.

Depending on your morale compass and how you feel about "separating artists from their real life and their music"

Kodak was indicted by a grand jury in October 2017. He was indicted for first-degree criminal sexual misconduct.

Kodak Black is not an artist Hip-Hop has "cancelled" by any means

"Super Gremlin" peaked at number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 This year in 2022

Notable features since Grand Jury Indictment in October 2017

2022

Kodak also continues to get booked for shows and festivals.

Why it his most recently released guest versus on a Kendrick Lamar album is causing so much of a stir?

Previously J.Cole received backlash co-signs of Kodak, XXX, and Tekashi 6ix9ine in the Apr. 2019 cover story for XXL. Cole sparked outrage after he made a series of statements praising their music skills or encouraging others to pray for them during tough times. "I get it, there's some people out there that do things that a person can't fathom loving anybody that can do that," he admitted. "But nobody becomes that way overnight. Nobody is born that way. That sh*t is a product of unfortunate circumstances and mishaps in the person's life, too many to count. Sh*t that they may not even remember that, in my opinion, causes someone to be as sick as they would be to be a fucking murderer, to be dumb enough to just take a life."

I know some hip-hop artists talk about illegal acts that are not acceptable in society for the most part.

But sexual assaults are definitely in an entirely separate category of being a despicable act (at least to me).

Now I know blogs and all this stuff is not real life. I am just trying to hear some perspective I guess, hopefully this discussion hasn't been repeated a million times.

Questions:

Does Hip-Hop care if an artist has sexually assaulted someone?

Is the current Kodak backlash Kendrick is receiving only happening because he is Kendrick and people would not expect him to work with Kodak because of the perception they have of Kendrick?

Shoutsout to u/shebreaksmyarm for sparking this conversation topic within me.

She discussed her views Kodak's inclusion on Kendrick latest album, as someone who was raped and I linked her post below
