Monthly 'What's Hot' playlist // MARCH 2018

Posted: 08 Mar 2018 09:22 AM PST

What's good HHH, your beloved mod team here.

As promised in the January announcements thread, at the start of each month, we'll have a thread to update a playlist of what's hot. The songs in this playlist (50 songs) will be chosen by you guys. A thread will be posted every month (this is the first one), where you can leave a comment with the song you think should be in the playlist. The songs must have been released in the last two months preferably, but exceptions are possible. The 50 comments with the highest amount of votes will be made into a playlist that will be posted and put in the sidebar. After every months vote the playlist will be updated.

RULES:

  • ONE SONG PER COMMENT

  • Songs must have been released in the last 2 months (exceptions are possible if an older song suddenly blows up, or if a song stays popular for a long time)

Here are last months New Music Fridays to give an overview of all the music that dropped the past 2 months (the songs don't have to be in these threads though):

February 23rd, February 17th, February 9th, February 2nd & January 19th

Please report any comments you see that contain a song that has already been posted, so that we can delete those comments.

We are currently planning on putting a playlist on Spotify and Apple Music. If anyone wants to make one on another platform and update it every month, feel free and make sure to contact us with the link.

We are looking into more specific, themed playlists and how to go about creating those, so any input or ideas you guys have on that is always welcome.

Welcome to the new and improved Essential Album of the Week discussion thread!

Last Time: Dre Dog - I Hate You With a Passion

This Week: Mobb Deep - The Infamous

Survival of the Fittest

Temperature's Rising

Give Up the Goods

Background/Description (courtesy of allmusic.com)

One of the cornerstones of the New York hardcore movement, The Infamous is Mobb Deep's masterpiece, a relentlessly bleak song cycle that's been hailed by hardcore rap fans as one of the most realistic gangsta albums ever recorded. Given Mobb Deep's youthful age and art-school background, it's highly unlikely that The Infamous is drawn strictly from real-life experience, yet it's utterly convincing, because it has all the foreboding atmosphere and thematic sweep of an epic crime drama. That's partly because of the cinematic vision behind the duo's detailed narratives, but it's also a tribute to how well the raw, grimy production evokes the world that Mobb Deep is depicting. The group produced the vast majority of the album itself, with help on a few tracks from the Abstract (better known as Q-Tip), and establishes a spare, throbbing, no-frills style indebted to the Wu-Tang Clan. This is hard, underground hip-hop that demands to be met on its own terms, with few melodic hooks to draw the listener in. Similarly, there's little pleasure or relief offered in the picture of the streets Mobb Deep paints here: They inhabit a war zone where crime and paranoia hang constantly in the air. Gangs are bound together by a code of fierce loyalty, relying wholly on one another for survival in a hopeless environment. Hostile forces -- cops, rivals, neighborhood snitches -- are potentially everywhere, and one slip around the wrong person can mean prison or death. There's hardly any mention of women, and the violence is grim, serious business, never hedonistic. Pretty much everything on the album contributes to this picture, but standouts among the consistency include "Survival of the Fittest," "Eye for a Eye," "Temperature's Rising," "Cradle to the Grave," and the classic "Shook Ones, Pt. 2." The product of an uncommon artistic vision, The Infamous stands as an all-time gangsta/hardcore classic.

Guidelines

This is an open thread for you to share your thoughts on the album. Avoid vague statements of praise or criticism. This is your chance to practice being a critic. It's fine for you to drop by just to say you love the album, but let's try and step it up a bit!!!

How has this album affected hip-hop? WHY do you like this tape? What are the best tracks? Do you think it deserves the praise it gets? Is it the first time you've listened to it? What's your first impression? Have you listened to the artist before? Explain why you like it or why you don't.

DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT BEING LATE!!!! Discussion throughout the week is encouraged.

Next week's EAOTW will be Naughty by Nature - Poverty's Paradise
