Rules update


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.


Poookieboo

Level .She's one of my best friends and a dope ass rapper too. Also if you recognize her name its because she used to be kinda vine famous

EDIT: If y'all like her music, please let her know over on Twitter! She's been kinda down lately and I know she'd love to hear that you guys like her style.


ShittyBoyz

Teejayx6 cosigned, scam rap from Michigan with really unique beats that sample old freestyle and italo disco. Fun videos and punchlines.

Game Breaker


18Veno

Producer20's have a Nintendo music type vibe to them. I posted "Fuck Rap" and described the beat as "sound[ing] like it samples Yoshi background music." Alphonse is right too he's got a Tay-K esque flow

Fuck Rap:

In another lifetime, Neeko Baby would probably be making the theme songs for early morning children's television shows. Instead, his bright and enchanting production is being used by South Carolina's 18Veno to angstily rap about his favorite pair of G-Star jeans and evading the police. Following in the footsteps of last month's "1942," the pair's latest, "Fuck Rap," proves yet again how well the duo complement each other. There have been rappers who sound like 18Veno before, but he sounds essential when he rides over the sunny production of Neeko Baby; it's music that everyone needs to hear.

1942:

It won't be a surprise if rap's next superproducer comes from the Carolinas. Like Atlanta, they have become breeding grounds for hitmaking beatmakers; both Pi'erre Bourne and Jetsonmade emerged from them. Next in line are Charlotte's Producer20 and South Carolina's Neeko Baby, the latter is behind the boards on 18Veno's "1942." 18Veno, a 19-year-old Carolina rapper, is breaking through in his own right, and he raps with the type of youthful aggression that brings to mind someone like Tay-K—though 18Veno is far more refined. Yet, on "1942," it's hard to think about anything else other than Neeko Baby's production. He seamlessly blends a clean guitar, a twinkling melody, and pounding percussion popularized by Jetson. Any Atlanta rapper not in Neeko's IG DMs better get there.


Since99

White dmv rapper. His song immaculate went viral on twitter because of memes about how he sounds like an accountant rapping/ people saying he raps in times new Roman. Bro sounds goofy but his punchlines are hard; reminiscent of Xanman and mixtape weezy. Some fave punches:

"Grind for that sack like jadeveon clowney"

"I lean off the drank like the tower of pisa/ I need the numbers on the back of your visa/ ballin hard like I'm Trevor ariza/ makin a play in the back of a Kia"

"I feel like Ben Carson the way I'm gifted with hands/ I'm in the kitchen mixing with pots and the pans"

"I'm just tryin to go and cop an estate/ took my chopper out the closet, I hope that he straight"

immaculate

no go

all time low


WemmyMo

Yo Mama Bad Bad

Moppas & Choppas (feat. D2X)

Uptown Chicago rapper with acrobatic flows and a sense of humor

RIYL: Guapdad 4000, Amine, Buddy, Denzel Curry


Drownmili

War Outside

Underground artist from Long Island but based in Los Angeles. He's worked with Zillakami, Nascar Aloe, Ghoulavelli and a lot of the artists in that scene. War Outside^ went viral during the George Floyd protests and Mili is gearing up to drop a punk album with this track being the first single. Definitely check his music out if you're into underground/alt punk hip hop.


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

[DISCUSSION] Big K.R.I.T. - KRIT Wuz Here (10 Years Later)

Posted: 14 Jul 2020 07:56 AM PDT

David Drake in P4k

Big K.R.I.T.'s zero-to-60 career trajectory has taken the rapper mere months-- he was unknown for much of 2009-- to become one of the more buzzed-about blog-rap phenomenons. Compare his sudden rise with that of his obvious influences, like Pimp C, whose impact was still just being recognized upon his death, or T.I., who toiled in the Atlanta underground after a major-label false start before beginning his ascendancy. K.R.I.T. is a talented artist, a rapper with dimension and ambition who has learned much at the feet of the masters. His new record, K.R.I.T. Wuz Here, is a strong release from a kid who has a lot of ideas and approaches, although he hasn't quite established himself as a distinctive star, and often falls back on a collection of well-crafted southern rap clichés. The fact that we're even talking about him today is because he stands on the shoulders of some rappers who didn't have such an easy path to critical acceptance.

It helps that K.R.I.T. seems uninterested in following the paths of major-label creative casualty B.o.B., who seemed to outgrow rap before he could even grow into it. Instead, the rapper joins a first wave of new artists (G-Side, Yelawolf, Pill) working a vein of Southern rap traditionalism, embracing the production aesthetics of UGK and Organized Noize. K.R.I.T.'s ear is his biggest strength; as a producer, tracks like "Return of Forever" and "Country Shit" find him revitalizing the staid indie rap template with the 808s and swagger of Southern rap.

As a rapper, K.R.I.T. still seems to be working his persona out, as if his talents have leapt ahead of his sense of self. Just as he deftly emulates great producers, his rap influences are the best of the best; choosing Pimp C as a stylistic forefather suggests he identifies with strong personalities, even if he's working his way through them to find his own. And T.I.'s topical breadth and lyrical flexibility serve a strong example for an artist uninterested in painting himself into a corner. Goodie Mob certainly laid a blueprint for his more socio-political verses. It's also smart of him to work with rappers like Curren$y-- the most charismatic nu-South backpack rapper. If K.R.I.T. follows this path, he could end up with a truly great career.

And while this tape is strong, it's as much about potential as it is an achievement in itself; as great as it sounds hearing K.R.I.T.'s scrappy rap style ride "Country Shit"'s energetic beat, the track is almost undercut by its topical genericism. Tracks like "Just Touched Down" and "See Me on Top" feel like steps further back; standard soul loops, archetypal exercises flawlessly executed but ultimately quite empty. The flip is tracks like "They Got Us", "Children of the World", or "Small as a Giant," where K.R.I.T.'s reflective, conscious approach shows signs of personal honesty, political frustration, and hints at the person hidden behind the music.

[DISCUSSION] Nipsey Hussle - Mailbox Monday (5 Years Later)

Posted: 14 Jul 2020 09:43 AM PDT

Mailbox Money is the ninth mixtape by American rapper Nipsey Hussle. The mixtape was released as a free digital download on December 31, 2014, on mixtape hosting websites. It was also released in a limited first edition of 100 copies for $1,000 each including other incentives via his All Money In record label, which followed-up Crenshaw, that was sold under the same schema but rather 1,000 copies for $100. The mixtape features production by DJ Mustard, Rance, Hit-Boy, DJ Khalil, Ralo Stylez and Wizzo, among others. Guest appearances on the mixtape came from Rick Ross, Dom Kennedy, K Camp, Trae Tha Truth, Buddy and many others. The mixtape was supported by the singles "A Hunnit A Show" featuring Rick Ross, "Between Us" featuring K Camp, "Where Yo Money At", "Count Up That Loot", and "50 Niggaz".

Background

After releasing Crenshaw, October 2013, Nipsey quickly diverted the critical acclaim and success towards his Crenshaw Tour. Where he went on a 31-city trek, which started on January 9, 2014, and ended on February 13, 2014. While on his tour, Nipsey Hussle also released a plethora of songs which were considered freebies that were eventually added onto the 'Mailbox Money' project, such as "Count Up That Loot", "Between Us", "Be Here For A While", and "Where Yo Money At".

Upon the end of his tour, Nipsey created the idea to "Mailbox Money", after reading an article from the EzineArticles, to which describes the details of passive income and equity. From there, he emulated the same idea for his follow-up project, and announced that it would be released some time in December.

On December 29, 2014, he revealed the track list for Mailbox Money, which contained guest appearances from Rick Ross, Dom Kennedy, Trae Tha Truth, Buddy, J. Stone, K Camp, GI Joe, Pacman, Conrad, and Vernardo. Production was handled by, DJ Mustard, Rance, Hit-Boy, DJ Khalil, Ralo Stylez and Wizzo, among others.

Release and promotion

On December 3, 2014, Hussle announced his 2015 European tour via iHussle.com to which after the release of the 'Mailbox Money' project, he would be travel around 11 countries, such as France, England, Germany, and many other countries around Europe, from January 14, 2015 to February 1, 2015.

Sales

According to Nipsey Hussle, he has sold 60 copies of the limited retail version of the album (which cost $1,000) as of 1/24/2015.

Singles

On December 4, 2014, Nipsey released his official debut single, "50 Niggaz", for the forthcoming project, 'Mailbox Money', and explain the motive and direction of the track and project in its entirety by saying,

It's crazy because that record is a year and a half old. I was going to hold it but felt like it made sense with everything that's going on. We've seen this before, especially in L.A., where we felt like we didn't get any justice. I was a little kid during the Rodney King riots. I remember it. There were tanks on Crenshaw and Slauson. The grocery store my grandparents shopped at was burned down. It seemed familiar, and I have a voice now. I didn't want to take to Twitter and all that. I did feel a way about it and wanted to say something.

The following week, he also released the second single, entitled "A Hunnit A Show", alongside Rick Ross, which was produced by Hit-Boy.

Professor Griff appears on Nick Canon's CannonsClass podcast, defends the anti-semitic and homophobic comments that got him fired from Public Enemy, spreads additional antisemitic and black Israelite conspiracy theories, praises Farrakhan all with support from Cannon

Posted: 13 Jul 2020 08:17 AM PDT

Interview

Jewish Insider piece:

Video of TV host and actor Nick Cannon spreading antisemitic conspiracy theories and praising virulent antisemite Louis Farrakhan has resurfaced in recent days.

Cannon — who currently hosts "The Masked Singer" on Fox and previously hosted "America's Got Talent" on NBC — spoke with Richard Griffin, aka Professor Griff, on a recent episode of "Cannon's Class," the TV host's YouTube talk show. Cannon appears to have filmed the video last year, and reposted it to his channel a few weeks ago — where it gained renewed attention over the weekend.

Griffin was a member of the hip hop group Public Enemy until the late 1980s, when he was ousted over antisemitic remarks he made in a series of interviews. In the reposted video with Cannon, the TV host praised Griffin for having "the most substance and weight in speaking unapologetically… and you stuck to your guns."

Early in the 90-minute video, Griffin said that the semitic people and the semitic languages "have absolutely nothing to do with any white people." Cannon then chimed in: "The semitic people are black people." Griffin and Cannon agreed that the term "antisemitic" is used to divide people and "neutralize" criticism.

In the video with Cannon, Griffin attempted to distance himself from the comments that got him fired from Public Enemy — "they put that on me… I never said these things." In a 1989 interview with The Washington Times, Griffin said: "The Jews are wicked. And we can prove this," and said that Jews are responsible for "the majority of wickedness that goes on across the globe." Griffin told Cannon that during that now-infamous interview, he was merely "speaking facts" about who controls the music industry. "I'm hated now because I told the truth," he recalled of his dismissal in 1989, repeatedly referencing "the Cohens and the Moskowitzes."

Cannon later referenced "going as deep as the Rothschilds, centralized banking, the 13 families, the bloodlines that control everything even outside of America." Cannon claimed that when people understand who the real Jewish people are, "it's never hate speech, you can't be antisemitic when we are the semitic people. When we are the same people who they want to be. That's our birthright." He later added that "we are the true Hebrews."

Cannon also spoke about "giving too much power to the 'they' — and then the 'they' turns into the Illuminati, the Zionists, the Rothschilds."

Cannon has praised Farrakhan repeatedly on his YouTube show, saying that "every time I've heard him speak, it's positive, it's powerful, it's uplifting… for whatever reason, he's been demonized."

The prolific actor, singer and TV host's most recent single is titled "Madoff."

In 2013, Cannon was criticized by the Anti-Defamation League for appearing in a video from the New Black Panther Party, which the ADL refers to as "the nation's largest antisemitic and racist black militant group."

Rabbi David Wolpe, the senior rabbi of Sinai Temple in Los Angeles, told JI that the comments in the video "are a lamentable combination of ignorance and hostility."

In comments to JI, Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, said that "anyone seeking a Ph.D in Jew-hatred should watch this 'interview' in its entirety. Farrakhan's hateful screeds on full display in the next generation inculcating [the] 21st century through cultural figures and social media. Pure poison."

Posted: 13 Jul 2020 07:54 AM PDT

Pilot Talk is the third studio album by rapper Curren$y. It was to be the first released under the newly re-launched Roc-A-Fella Records by Damon Dash and distributed through Def Jam Recordings. It was later revealed that the album would be released under Damon Dash's DD172 record label division, BluRoc Records. The album was originally scheduled to be released on March 23, 2010.

The entire album is solely produced by Ski Beatz except "Prioritize", which is produced by Nesby Phips, and "Roasted", which is produced by Monsta Beatz. Ski Beatz also remixed the song "Breakfast" for the album which was originally produced by Mos Def. Several music videos were shot for the album promotion and can be found on CreativeControl.tv

[DISCUSSION] Jazz Cartier - Marauding In Paradise (5 Years Later)

Posted: 13 Jul 2020 10:59 AM PDT

SoundCloud

Anupa Mistry in P4k:

Jazz Cartier is Toronto's first post-Drake rapper, an artist who benefits from Drake's razing of American rap's once-inviolable boundaries, but with no formal ties to the OVO crew. Jazz, who also goes by Jacuzzi La Fleur, has managed to build a sizable local fan base—still rare in a city long referred to by local artists as the Screwface Capital—by establishing a grimier counter-narrative to Drake's opulent, uptown vision of a city newly christened The Six. On his polished debut album, Marauding in Paradise, he deploys the new nickname just once, on "Local Celebrity Freestyle", setting up his own us-vs-them, downtown/uptown dichotomy: "I'm from Toronto, but they call it the Six."

But Marauding isn't antagonistic: it just offers a counterpoint, a glimpse into a different, younger subset of Toronto's art and party scene. Living in a city giddy off one man's come up, Jazz prefers to move to the sound of his own voice. And his elegant, elastic bark is loud and clear: The best moments on Marauding are fearless, theatrical. Jazz assumes the bluster of a corner preacher on "Guardian Angel" and gives the intro track about soured relationships a gothic vibe, reminiscent of the skits on early Dungeon Family records. (After a brief verse, the song tumbles into a snippet from Mista's "Blackberry Molasses", confirming the allusion.) Elsewhere, on "New Religion" and "Holy Shit", he's unafraid to shriek, wail and growl into the mic.

To allow Marauding a chance to connect, you have to push past some of the overt sonic and aesthetic allusions to Houston rapper Travis Scott, which compromise the sound of an original voice shining through. On the evidence of Marauding, however, we should give 'Cuzzi some time to distill this influence. There's exciting trial-and-error happening everywhere on the album: His willingness to play with flows, his eye for detail, a surprising grip of giddy, geeky quips ("I'm Kanye with shrugs"; rhyming Dom Perignon with M. Night Shyamalan) and the ability to work with his right-hand-man producer, Lantz. Together, they temper the record's sometimes-overwhelming maximalism at the right moments.

The tape lacks a signature song, one that sums up the world Jazz lives in and invites us in. "Switch" and "The Downtown Cliché" feature the on-trend pairing of bottom-feeding bass/triplet cavalcades. Lantz distills a variety of vibes, from post-trap bangers and PARTYNEXTDOOR-style bedroom soul to Easy Mo Bee boom bap and the Vine-brittle blap of Terio's theme song. Most compelling are his transitions, particularly on songs like the beautiful Toro Y Moi flip, "Rose Quartz/Like, Crazy", and "Flashiago/A Sober Drowning".

Here are some things we learn about Jacuzzi from Marauding, though: he is, or has been, a drug-addled party kid and a lovesick lothario, and has gone from being the only black kid in an Idaho classroom to too expensive for your features. It's not easy to inhabit these identities on a single album—let alone your first—but Jazz is agile enough to pull it off and, like Toronto, he's still growing.

[DISCUSSION] Father - Who's Gonna Get Fucked First? (5 Years Later)

Posted: 13 Jul 2020 08:40 AM PDT

Spotify

Apple Music

Fact Mag:

One of the weird pleasures of adulthood is revisiting the artifacts of youth and uncovering some of the dark and twisted material you were subjected to — without question — as a child: nursery rhymes, lullabies and fairy tales about babies falling from trees, child cannibalism, self-mutilation and the Great Plague. That's why it's fitting that Father kicks off Who's Gonna Get Fucked First? with a riff on 'Hush Little Baby': it's an album that often shrouds the darker moments of young adulthood in a pleasant package, like weed laced with PCP.

In the wake of Young Hot Ebony and breakout single 'Look At Wrist', Father deals with everything that has happened in the last six months or so: the side effects of his first taste of fame; heavy doses of sex, drugs and assorted Awful-styled fuckshit; and, ultimately, the deep-seated psychological issues that persist despite all else. Compared to his peers who are suffering from success, Father is at once more delighted, more defiant and more disturbed than we'd expect.

While the title isn't just a raunchy come-on (trying to get a "pearlescent white Lamb[orghini], without signing 360 deal to white man" requires navigation of music industry fuckery), there's plenty of that, too. But despite being explicit in both detail and content, Father avoids the lazy misogyny that is part-and-parcel with most contemporary rap, putting a premium on female pleasure and keeping things sex positive. "It started off PG but now it's BET Uncut / started you and me but now it's you and me and her / so what? who cares if they think that you're a slut," he ponders on 'BET Uncut', using the network's controversial, softcore video show to destigmatize sexual exploration. Elsewhere, there's a focus on "hit[ting] her spot," getting girls "wetter than the Keys in September," and plenty of "come" double entendres.

This attitude towards sex has cropped up in Awful's catalog previously: KeithCharles Spacebar proclaimed "we never slut shame, we ain't never give a fuck" in 'Drink My Spit', a song Father calls back to — albeit with a depraved comeback — on 'BET Uncut'. On the same song, RichPoSlim puts Super Mario and sex positions in the same couplet, "unlock[s] her coochie chakras," and wonders why if "I say she's sexually liberated, you call her ass a ho?"

It's a moment where Father shares the spotlight with another Awful family member, but not the last: Stalin Majesty and Abra add a verse and harmonies to 'Morena', respectively, while Abra raps about girl hate on the Miami bass-influenced 'Gurl'. Spacebar contributes to a handful of songs, flexing his ¾ muscles on 'Slow Dance'. As Father reminds on 'Back in the "A" Freestyle / On Me', Awful rolls "fifteen deep;" "that's 30 hands" in a fight or on a track.

When you get a few members of Awful together in a room, conversations and collaboration will happen — but so will (self-)destruction. In one of the most vivid lines on the album, Father raps: "Nggas in the party, mixing Moët with the Brandy / Keith pop a xan / hit a ngga where he stand / and I jumped in with the RKO before he land." That type of jackassery is all fun and games until about 'Spoil You Rotten' ("drank too much rum and I died"), when the album quickly takes a sinister turn.

Father sounds like a Xan-addled goth over otherworldly groans and live drums on the Spacebar-assisted 'Highway 101', a mood countered by the bouncy 'Everybody in the Club Gettin Shot'. A self-aware flip of street rap tropes (like Young Hot Ebony track '2 Dead, 6 Wounded'), the song turns "everybody in the club getting shot / everybody gonna twirl then drop" into a violent reworking of something like 'Tipsy'.

The album ends with 'Suicide Party', a song that takes self destruction to its logical conclusion, with a slinky riff, sinister efforts from Slug Christ and Spacebar, and a sing-song hook: "It's a suicide party / who's trying to die first? / vodka and Bacardi / where's our advisors? / oh I guess they're tied up / well let's get higher."

The hook of 'Suicide Party' is another twisted lullaby from Father, and a reprise of the title track. He's still "stressed and depressed," but as always, he's doing things on his own terms and with Awful by his side.

Sunday General Discussion – July 12th, 2020

Posted: 12 Jul 2020 08:52 AM PDT

July 2020 Rules Update + Feedback Thread

Posted: 12 Jul 2020 12:05 PM PDT

It's been almost a year since the last Feedback/Update thread. We intend to do these threads more regularly to both receive your input and to provide timely updates to the rules.

We've seen many of your complaints about activity stagnating and we take them seriously. Over the past two months (especially within recent weeks), we've loosened enforcement on rules that require our discretion for enforcement. If people have suggestions on additional specific things that can be done or would like to discuss specific post removals. We are happy to address these. While not prohibited, vague suggestions like "stop removing posts" are not particularly helpful.

Here are some updates we're implementing:

Weekly threads

Moronic Mondays and Rap Buy Weekly have been discontinued. The Daily Discussion does the function of Moronic Monday and most of the comments didn't follow the rules in the first place and Rap Buy Weekly always received very limited engagement and has been replaced by Hype Thursday.

Hype Thursday is moving to Tuesday (and becoming Hype Tuesday) and Throwback Writeup is moving to Thursday to coincide with [THROWBACK THURSDAY].

Thursday, Fridays and Satudays

Song posts on Thursday post either be [THROWBACK THURSDAY], [HYPE], or [FRESH]. This is meant to give increased spotlight to the content coming out on release heavy days and avoid [FRESH] posts getting get drown out by tagless song posts (ex: that Kendrick we've all heard song that happens to have not been posted in a year).

Saturday are dedicated to [FIRST IMPRESSIONS] posts. Tagless song posts are prohibited as well as to promote discussion of a wider range of releases and of songs from releases of the prior day.

Reminder:

  • [HYPE] is for artists that have not gotten 50 upvotes previously on the subreddit
  • [THROWBACK THURSDAY] is for songs older than 10 years. This is meant to be for lesser known songs but there's no explicit rule there

Repost Upvote Threshold

The 30 votes upvote limit has been a rule for a long time, considering the growth of the sub, this has been increased to 45.

Listicles

We have decided to allow listicles if they're not ranking things (generally geared towards discovery – ex:P&P: Best New Artists of the Month (January) and The Best Beat Tapes on Bandcamp: June 2020). Album of the Year lists will remain consolidated in one thread at the end of the year.

Sticking album discussion posts

Album discussion posts feature some of the best discussions on this subreddit! in order to promote these posts, recently we have decided to sticky them for a limited time, in order to allow them to build steam and then unsticky them when they can stand on their own. We also recommend posting 1 yr, 5 yr, 10 yr, etc. later threads. Here's 2019 releases, 2015, 2010, you get the point)

Best of /r/makinghiphop

We are working with the moderators of /r/makinghiphop to make this a continuing thread.

User run threads

Someone suggested a weekly Rumor/Speculation thread with a weekly roundup of what's been going on and a platform for speculation that prior was restricted to the Daily Discussion, they never got back to us but I'm sure there's some KTT-esque user that follows the minutiae of all that stuff. If anybody is interested, express interest in this thread.

If anybody would like to propose a thread they would like to run

[NOW ON STREAMING]

There was not a tag for an non-[FRESH] release that haven't been on streaming services before being added to them, we are adding the [NOW ON STREAMING] tag to represent this.

Monthly RIAA Certifications thread

This was a great compliment to the Weekly Billboard and First Week Sales thread. These threads are back.

Smooth Sundays

This is now an official thread!

Reminder on Discussion Threads

They're allowed if they're not in the "Done To Death" section. Please post them!

Sincerely,

the mods

[DISCUSSION] Big K.R.I.T. - K.R.I.T. Iz Here (One Year Later)

Posted: 12 Jul 2020 05:31 AM PDT

K.R.I.T. iz Here is the fourth studio album by American rapper Big K.R.I.T., released on July 12, 2019, by BMG Rights Management and Multi Alumni. It follows the release of his 2017 album 4eva Is a Mighty Long Time, and is a sequel to his 2010 mixtape K.R.I.T. Wuz Here. It featured guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Saweetie, Rico Love, Yella Beezy, J. Cole and Baby Rose, among others.

Critical reception

Evan Rytlewski of Pitchfork described Big K.R.I.T. as "almost incapable of making a song that's anything less than perfectly fine", continuing: "K.R.I.T. Iz Here might have been better off if K.R.I.T. had availed himself of a few swings and misses". Writing on HipHopDX, Daniel Spielberger labelled the album as "neither a career-defining album nor a complete flop", also commenting "K.R.I.T. is on auto-pilot".
