Hype Thursday: Post songs by artists that haven't gotten more than 50 upvotes on HHH

Posted: 20 Jun 2019 08:53 AM PDT

If y'all remember we've done [HYPE WEEK] a bunch of times.

Previous weeks: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. If someone wants to make a Spotify playlist of everything that's been posted so far I can add it to the OP and future OPs.

Rules

Artists qualify if they're never gotten 50 or more upvotes on /r/HipHopHeads (counting features)

Formatting:

Artist - Title

Description: no character minimum but some things that might be good to include: where the rapper is from, what subgenres they might fall into, have cosigns they might have, what their influences are/who they sound like.

Example:

Aaron May - Let Go

17 year old Houston Rapper, biggest influences are J Cole and Nas.

The highest upvoted songs might be collected for a playlist or something.

Heavily recommended: If you post a song, listen to another song and comment on it. Otherwise it doesn't rly work that well.


Top picks from last week:

Jurdan Bryant - Outside (https://youtu.be/MZB6S3DgWCs)

From Baltimore, Maryland, he's a member of Spillage Village (collective including the man himself, JID, Earthgang, and Hollywood JB). This song was on Spillage Village's 2017 album "Bears Like This Too Much", but this year, Bryant dropped this single version where the beat is slightly altered from the original.

Music video/short film if anyone's interested: (https://youtu.be/RbyGK63FlnI)

"Half Empty" is another one of my favorites from him, from Spillage Village's 2014 tape "Bears Like This" (https://youtu.be/lymelfcrudc)

Jurdan has some more singles you can find on streaming services, and while he doesn't have a full length album out yet, he's been hinting at one to arrive in the near future

FreDD c. : LAKESHOW (https://youtu.be/DfuOtAny5_c)

FreDD c. is an artist from Lexington KY. LAKESHOW is the single from his yet to be released third album. He makes aggressive yet conscience records that trend towards a more abstract sound sonically. All of his production is from partner Cory D. Influences are Nas, J. Cole, & Ab Soul among others.

Other great songs are:

Red Eyes ft. Blu (https://open.spotify.com/track/5KUHgQcLAX8lbPCitCSGxC?si=9Y9QyXLJRJuKvf6kiUaMTA)

Live With It ft. Sheisty Khrist (https://open.spotify.com/track/3hCQ20fVvgmKdRRfQnZMYz?si=7Z-GHq23QvmMwwP0pt9GOQ)

Brothas (https://open.spotify.com/track/55R4Fj8kHzHmyi2uTL3oz3?si=qOrtkeMMTHiP5CqKCv8nNQ)

Listen to Huey Briss he's very good. He doesn't really have a super underground sound but he's not super poppy sounding either, he's just really good. He's got some really good production and bars and has a really nice delivery.

Here are some of his best songs. Gil Scott Never Lied especially is incredible and everybody that I've showed it to has loved it.

Gil Scott Never Lied

Rich Dad Poor Dad

Regardless

Psymun - Night Owl (featuring Dem Atlas & Chester Watson)

An incredible lo-fi/jazz rap song. First verse is incredible, very powerful start to the song. Psymun's such a versatile producer, I had absolutely 0 idea he's produced Chanel (Go Get It) for Thugger and Fine China for Future & Juice WRLD

Kill Bill x Rav - Lovedrug (Off That)

Couple of dudes from South Carolina, tons of tracks out there, real hard workers. Love the hook on this song in particular.

2019 XXL Freshman Freestyle Dates

Posted: 20 Jun 2019 02:45 PM PDT

Back again for the third year to give you the dates for the XXL Freshman freestyles and cyphers. Remember, everything is subject to change, like how some dates swapped in the last two years and we haven't gotten any cypher footage yet, so I can't really provide that. The website is setup differently this time too but here is what it should be, in order of freestyles and the interviews:

WEEK 1:

6/24 - DaBaby

6/25 - Megan Thee Stallion

6/26 - YBN Cordae

6/27 - Rico Nasty

6/28 - Gunna

WEEK 2:

7/1 - Comethazine

7/2 - Tierra Whack

7/3 - Lil Mosey

7/4 - Roddy Ricch

7/5 - Blueface

WEEK 3:

7/8 - YK Osiris

Cypher previews will be posted this week. Most likely Wednesday, the 10th or Friday, the 12th.

WEEK 4:

7/15 - Cypher 1

7/17 - Cypher 2

7/19 - Cypher 3

XXXTENTACION and Ski Mask The Slump God's DJ, DJ Scheme is the DJ for this year. Like I said I'll continue to update when needed and when things change!

Edit: It changed since I originally posted. DaBaby and Megan The Stallion are now the first two instead of YBN Cordae and Rico Nasty. YK Osiris was added as the last person. I'm not sure if that will change because they usually do the fanvote last no matter what. I'm not sure if the cypher preview and Osiris' freestyle and interview are going to both be on week three but it's a safe bet.

J. Cole (and his team) continues to gyp his fans out of merch for over 1 year

Posted: 19 Jun 2019 09:31 PM PDT

I purchased an official, limited edition, autographed vinyl of J. Cole's KOD three days after the album first dropped from https://www.jcoleshop.com/. It is now June 2019, and I never received anything in the mail for this purchase. I received a shipping confirmation email on April 24th, 2018 and an email "Update Regarding Your Order from J. Cole" on September 14, 2018.

In that update email, someone from J. Cole's merch team said that "the signed LP jackets were damaged in transit and need to be re-manufactured and re-signed" ... "and these will now not ship out until late January 2019. We recognize that this is a long delay so if you would prefer to have your money refunded, please reply to this email to start that process."

I am a college student, so I quickly let this slip my mind and I forgot about it, until I randomly remembered earlier this month (June 2019) and decided to email the merch team asking for any updates. In his merch team's defense, I did receive a quick response (on June 7th, 2019), but it was not very helpful. All they said was that "unfortunately, we still do not have a confirmed timeline of when we will be receiving more inventory of the KOD Signed Vinyl."

They did also offer, again, to provide a refund, but I am a broke college student, so the likelihood of me being able to afford VIP tickets to get an autograph from one of my all-time favorite artists is little to none right now. I don't really want a refund. The $37 I paid is not going to change my life right now, but I would really value adding this vinyl to the little collection I'm starting to build up.

Please spare an upvote so that MAYBE some slight social media traction might provoke a more timely-effort to give J. Cole's supporters what they deserve. I can guarantee I am not the only one that this happened to.

*Edit: I have just learned that "gyp" is a derogatory slur that delegitimizes the plight of the Romanian (and Egyptian) people. For whatever reason, "jip" came to me when writing the title and I just quickly used google dictionary to get the correct spelling. I apologize for any insensitivity.

This article succinctly sums up the issue with the word: https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2013/12/30/242429836/why-being-gypped-hurts-the-roma-more-than-it-hurts-you

Also, if this edit/disclaimer triggers and offends you (for being too PC, or whatever), then get the fuck over it. Also, please send me my vinyl J. Cole. <3

He announced it on Twitter.

Apparently it's a name change from his former self owned label 'Team Elysium' but the way he described it with his video it seems he will be focusing on it a lot more in the future.

The decline of remixes

Posted: 19 Jun 2019 02:42 AM PDT

I was having a friendly internet debate with a friend around my age (I'm 33) yesterday, and whose formative rap-listening years match mine (i.e. the ascendance of Pitchfork, mixtape-era Wayne, Gucci, Clipse etc.).

Anyway, I was saying that DJ Khaled's bloated song-model of throwing a bunch of different artists onto a track feels slightly outmoded these days, but that it was a staple back in the day: I often remember hearing a song, and then you'd inevitably end up with a remix where like 4 or 5 different rappers jump on .. for example, something like this: https://youtu.be/r49ydtBbghI . It's like artists really revelled in the excess of these bloated posse cuts and remixes.

I don't keep up with mainstream/radio stuff anymore, but I do feel like there's been a decline in these remixes in favor of sticking to official features on songs, and was wondering if anyone had any theories why?
