A Boogie apparently scams reseller for $10K worth of sneakers (50 pairs)

Posted: 28 Jan 2019 01:15 PM PST

TL;DR: A Boogie's "assistant" has sneaker reseller drive to his house in NJ and drop off 50 pairs of sneakers and tells him that he'd pay him "later". Never gets paid and ducks him repeatedly. A Boogie knowingly allows this to happen and still has not paid the kid.

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

[DISCUSSION] Isaiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo (5 Years Later)

Posted: 27 Jan 2019 04:13 PM PST

Cilvia Demo is the debut extended play by Isaiah Rashad, released in January 2014. It was met with universal acclaim from fans and critics upon its release, with praise directed at the album's unconventional production, cohesiveness, and Rashad's unique style and thoughtful lyrics. The project is a loose concept album that, according to Rashad, sums up his emotional struggle from his teenage to adolescent years.

What are your thoughts on this album 5 years since its release?


Some points for discussion:

  • What are your favorite tracks?

  • Have your thoughts on this album changed over time?

  • What do you make of the smooth, downbeat Southern-influenced production, with the hazy and atmospheric soundscapes paired with chopped and screwed background vocals?

  • What is your favorite verse?

  • How would you compare this album to Isaiah Rashad's other work?

  • What are your thoughts on the lyrical themes of the album? Topics are explored such as substance abuse, fatherhood and coming of age - can you relate to these themes? How did this album personally affect you?

[Discussion] Nav used to be good back in 2016 when he posted independent tracks on SoundCloud

Posted: 27 Jan 2019 08:53 PM PST

Nav didn't use to get a lot of hate until he started releasing albums, but for a good reason though, in my opinion the songs off of his 3 albums/mixtapes are lackluster, repetitive, and a downhill slope for Nav. Back when he was just a "SoundCloud rapper" he was unique and made good beats, and he never showed his face. His actual lyrics weren't spectacular, but his songs overall were enjoyable until he became really popular

Isaiah released his debut project "Cilvia Demo" on January 28, 2014. Personally, it's one of my favorite tapes of the past decade, and there aren't any tracks on it that I would skip. What do you think of it 5 years later?
