Seemingly confirmed by the head of his label

WHAT IT IS: With more than 100m streams on Soundcloud, 13m+ Apple Music streams, 40m+ video views and a co-sign from music legend Missy Elliot, it's no surprise that Ski Mask the Slump God is "quickly emerging as one of the most talented rappers of the new school" (according to HotNewHipHop). Among a string of viral smashes, his "Take a Step Back," which features XXXTentacion, surpassed a staggering 31m plays, and "Where's the Blow," featuring Lil Pump, ratcheted up 19m plays.

RELEASE DATE: 6/30; upcoming project set to be released around Halloween (10/27)

SINGLE: "Catch Me Outside"

RADIO: Rhythm and Urban date 9/19

PRESS: HNHH ("Ski Mask seldom sacrifices lyrics or flow, delivering both in equally dope measure"), Genius ("'Baby Wipe' is one of Ski Mask's most popular songs, racking up over 4.7 million streams on Spotify and 6.8 million on SoundCloud. It appears on his June 2017 mixtape You Will Regret"

BOOKING: Cara Lewis/Victor Victor

Edit* - If you are unfamiliar here is an article explaining the Dolph vs Gotti and CMG beef. There is no proof to say that Gotti or affiliates are related to this but it's widely thought and recognised to be because of this beef.

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.

Look through past posts here


ALSO please check out this thread for a list of some of the most popular recommendation requests and the suggestions provided

The /r/HHH plug.dj room is back for the summer! Hop in and play some songs/chat with other heads

Posted: 17 Jul 2017 05:44 PM PDT

Link to the plug.dj room: https://plug.dj/rhhh/

If you're new, be sure to check the 'FAQ/Get Started' section below!


What is plug.dj?

plug.dj is a site where users take turns playing songs from youtube/soundcloud for each other and chat. Think crowdsourced radio, or a group passing the aux cord around one song at a time. The room can vote on how they like the song, chat about this or that and generally chill out and listen to tunes. It's a great way to find new music and share that song you've had on repeat. And you get to do it all with your fellow HHH fambruhs :)


General Guidelines

  1. Check the history before you play a song - The DJ history button is located here. It shows roughly the last 3 hours of songs that have been played in the room. If you play something that has been played recently enough to show up in the DJ history, you will be skipped by a staff member.

  2. No censored songs - Check the song you've picked before you play it. We don't want to hear a song where half of it is pauses. Explicit+video is awesome if you can get it, but we'd pick an explicit track without video over a censored video any day. If you play a censored track, you're getting skipped by a staff member.

  3. No pitch-shifted songs - Tagging on to the last rule. Just check the youtube vid you pick before you play it. We don't wanna hear the Alvin & the Chipmunks version of a song that some guy made to evade a copyright takedown, that'll be a skip.

  4. Play (mostly) hiphop - At the end of the day, this is the plug.dj room for hiphopheads. We do allow RnB to be played, as well as some EDM trap (or like remixes of rap songs), but for the most part otherwise, stick to playing hiphop. Memes are gonna get skipped by a staff member.

  5. Bitch don't kill my vibe - If everyone has been vibing out to some super chill songs, you should refrain from playing that Waka Flocka track. And if the last several people before you played some hype bangers, it's probably not the best time to play that instrumental Dilla track. Try to follow the flow.

  6. Don't instameh - Give a song a chance. No way you can judge a song within the first 5 seconds of it starting.

  7. Be active in chat - The staff does go through and kick afk people every once in a while. The way the afk timer works is based off of chat, so you need to say something in chat every once in a while to reset it. Besides, it's more fun when everyone is chatting! You'll get mentioned in chat if you've been afk for 45 minutes or so, if you don't respond you'll be kicked from the waitlist.

  8. No being a dick in chat - No spamming, no flaming other users, no racism. If you do, you will be kicked from the room by a staff member.

  9. Le rare gems - Try to not to play the most circlejerked songs from HHH. More fun if we get some stuff that isn't so overplayed.


FAQ/Get Started

How do I play songs?

You need to make a playlist (more instructions inside when you click that button) and then hit the join waitlist button.

How do I vote on songs?

Look at the bottom on the screen, on the right of the DJ booth. You can woot if you dig the song, meh if you want it to be skipped, and even grab it (save it to one of your playlists). If a song hits the required meh ratio, it will be skipped.

How do I check where I am in the waitlist?

Look at the top right of the screen. Shows your position, the total # of people in the waitlist, and the total # of people in the room.

How do I change my avatar/profile/settings?

Check the bottom right of the screen.

What's the deal with the people in chat with purple names and symbols?

Those people are room staff. There's levels to this shit, from resident DJ all the way to host. If you have been coming regularly for a long time, you might just get promoted too! How not to get promoted is to constantly beg for it though.

What if I really love/hate another user?

You can either friend them or ignore them by clicking on their avatar or name.

Anything I can do to enhance the plug experience?

Well...there is this extension called plug3 that can do some cool stuff. Check it out.

So Riff Raff has a sextape with a pornstar

Posted: 30 Sep 2017 09:35 PM PDT

So I was looking at Riff Raff's twitter because the video he did with Barstool Sports the other day was hilarious. So I'm on his twitter seeing what he's saying about it and everything and go to his likes. I see he liked a video from some porn star (I'm not familiar with her work) where she's getting piped down. After like 5 seconds I see a hand rubbing on her titty and that hand has a cup of lean tattooed on it. So I'm thinking "wait a second..." and quickly google his tattoos and lo and behold he has that exact tattoo

NSFW Here's the video in question

My shirt design is being resold as Goldlink merch

Posted: 30 Sep 2017 08:38 AM PDT

today a hypebeast article came out about goldlinks new tour merch, and right off the bat i see my tee at the top in the slideshow of pictures.

i sent goldlink this tee back in february for free because i really fw him and his music. i didn't ask for pictures, shoutouts, rt's. nor did i want any. i simply sent it to him because it'd be cool knowing people i respected owned my clothing.

a few months later, now, i find out that it is being resold for his merch. i understand it is just 1 of 1 but i believe the principle is still there. i wouldn't have even cared if he didn't wear it, threw it away, or even gave it to someone, but the fact that he took a shirt i sent him for free and resold it as his merch without my permission nor any recognition bothers me.

some of my friends tried contacting the actual designers working under goldlink who "made" these shirts, heres some of their responses.

https://imgur.com/lmsGZ4O

https://imgur.com/ASzpzBf

https://imgur.com/3CvCb20

one of them even trying to fight (lol):

https://imgur.com/KeHpujl

my main concern is that there are other brands who are also being recycled and sold. luckily my tee was posted on the gallery and i was able to see it, but who knows how many other brands are being used without them knowing.

at the end of the day i'm a really small brand and i'm just trying to make it out there. i as well as many other startup brands put lots of work into our designs, so seeing someone making it on hypebeast because they used my design is discouraging.
