What/Who is exciting you on the underground scene right now?

Posted: 26 Jul 2020 04:58 AM PDT

Picture this : it's 2014 and yung lean, partynextdoor, travis scott, XXXTENTACION, The Weeknd all have cult followings.. it was a great time, but now all these artists have gone mainstream and it's less exciting (no shade, I'm super happy for all these artists to have made it; that was the point of supporting them).

I feel like hiphop is at a stage now where it's become a little bit stale, are there any artists out there doing dope shit? Like original stuff and/or new takes on old styles? I wana feel that rush of "holy shit this is sick" again. HHH was a different landscape back then and I miss it.

This era of the pyramid scheme producer/rapper has washed out a lot of the really talented artists.. A lot of artists on the come up these days are doing it purely for financial gain and you can tell. Where's the artistry and innovation!?

HHH / fb used to be the go to place to find ILL shit but again, it's all a bit washed out rn. Where are people finding the good shit?

I refuse to believe that "the underground is dead" cuz it never dies, it just hides... where tf is it at?

This isn't a "woe is me" post, I want to get excited about hiphop like the way I did back then again.

(sorry if it comes off as pretentious lol)

[OC] Case Study: Lessons From Freddie Gibbs Rise - The Power Of A Slow Burn Career

Posted: 26 Jul 2020 10:22 AM PDT

Intro Freddie Gibbs has been rapping for the better part of two decades. So why is it that now, 13 years after being dropped from his first major label deal, he's just begun to reach his full potential? The answer is multifaceted but simple in its essence: perseverance, staying grounded, mastering social media, and building a cult following have all culminated in his new Partnership with Warner Records.

When music business folks say "build leverage" this is what they're talking about. Whether or not you have the stomach for a journey spanning two decades is up to you. So let's take a deep dive into the career of Freddie and find some lessons to help young artists learn what it takes to become an independent legend in their respective scene.

1. Release Music Constantly - Quantity Leads Into Quality

Often times people think quality and quantity are mutually exclusive. Some people believe in the Adele or Dr. Dre model releasing music after years of preparation. Others believe in the mixtape model popularized by rappers who originally distributed them out of their car trunks.

But why can't quantity lead into quality? As a matter of fact, studies like in David Epstein's book 'Range', have shown that in order to master your craft you not only have to work on it A LOT, you have to master the release process and be able to satiate your fans every step of the way. You have to understand how to promote yourself on a regular release schedule while being prepared for the next release in the pipeline. This is the balance every professional artist must strike. Plus you will continue to master your sound and push yourself to improve by constantly creating.

Epstein uses the example of Thomas Edison, he had over 1000 patents, the large majority of them were forgotten or useless, but they laid the groundwork for his breakthrough. This is similar to Gibbs who released SIX mixtapes and FOUR eps in just a four year span from 2008-2012. Toward the end of this process he would meet Madlib and start working on what would be his eventual breakthrough project, PiƱata.

He focused on building his catalogue over anything else.

2. Make Do With What You Have

When Gibbs was unceremoniously dropped from Interscope Records he took what he had recorded there and put it into two mixtapes. He didn't sulk and sit around waiting on new labels to sign him. He got back out there and took his product straight to the fans with no middle man. In an interview with Pitchfork back in 2009 he said this about not relying on "the crutch of a label":

"I don't have a team of writers coming in here and writing the song for me. There's times when I don't have a singer available to sing hooks for me; that's why I sing a lot of my own hooks. I do what I've got to do to make mine, to fit my sound and myself."

Sure we all write songs sometimes and think "I just need so and so to be on this and it'll be perfect" but sometimes you have to deal with reality and learn to do things alone. Especially while you're still on the come up.

3. Become A Personality OUTSIDE of Music

Gibbs is beloved on Instagram and Twitter. He learned that traditional PR could be circumvented by being a larger than life personality on social media. Look at his recent beef with DJ Akademiks, stuff like this is why people love him, he's a shit talking, hilarious, troublemaker who isn't afraid to step on peoples toes.

He's made his pages a destination for people who don't even know his music because he's a good follow. This allows his brand to go far past music. Learn how to share funny content, speak on the pulse of culture and align yourself within it.

4. Stay True To Your Sound No Matter Who You Work With, But Remain Versatile

Gibbs has never been a rapper using the flow of the moment. Whether he's on a slow sample based Madlib track or a menacing trap beat from Frank Dukes he always maintains his trademark delivery. Still this doesn't mean that he's a one trick pony.

He can double-time, slow things down, sing, and make his voice into an instrument like a jazzman. This has made him era-proof. Even if the popular sound of our times fade away, he will continue to be able to make the same type of stuff that earned him his hoards of fans. Fans love Freddie for who he is, not because he made 1 hot song that was played out one summer and forgotten about.

5. Put Yourself In Environments Where You Can Grow

Gibbs moved to LA and slept on his friends couch after being dropped from Interscope. Instead of staying home in Gary and reverting to bad habits he decided to double down on his dream. You might not need to move to LA to have a career in music but you need some sort of physical scene to immerse yourself in and learn from.

From there Gibbs toured anywhere he could off the strength of his mixtapes to start connecting with fans in person and build his showmanship skills. This would set the groundwork for the prolific festival run he's been on over the last decade.

6. Align Yourself With Artists in a Similar Lane

Gibbs has a trademark gangster rap sound. When he signed to Young Jeezy it was a smart alignment. Sure, they never clicked and ended up falling out, but aligning his up and coming brand with a well established outlet for trap rap was a notice to fans of the genre. Gibbs is one of the best in that lane and the signing put him on the map for many fans with an appetite for his sound who may not have been familiar.

7. Don't Try To Overstep Your Niche

Gibbs was once quoted as saying "if i'm overrated then I can fall down. But when i'm underrated then I always have room to grow." This outlook is crucial because far too often artists feel they aren't getting the acclaim they feel they deserve and let it discourage them or outright quit. Gibbs views it as a strength, like he can always go up from where he is.

That upward momentum led to him peaking at #15 on the Billboard Charts this year, the highest he's ever reached, 14 years after signing his first deal. That's almost unheard of when the average artist career usually lasts a few years. Use what you have and be proud of your lane. As it slowly expands that lane could one day become a highway.

8. Don't Sign A Deal Unless It's The RIGHT One

Freddie Gibbs was one of the first rappers to weaponize Independence. In 2015 he said "We don't get 360s. Freddie Gibbs doesn't do record deals with a label. We're gonna do a partnership if we do some shit." In 2020 he did just that.

Sometimes independence starts from necessity due to lack of co-signs or infrastructure. But once you get it to work, it has a higher upside than almost any major label deal. It's what gives you the leverage to have major labels beg you to partner with them just to get a piece of what you built.

"Before they were the ones taking a risk taking a chance on us, now we're the ones taking a risk working with new people."

Conclusion

Who would have thought that 10 years later after the 2010 XXL Freshman Cover that Gangster Gibbs would be arguably the most relevant rapper on the cover behind only J. Cole?

Artists, managers, anyone really can learn from this journey. Focus on building a dialogue with fans through constant output, constant touring and constantly connecting online. Make your social media a destination for more than just good music, make it a hub for good content. Don't focus on what you don't have and focus on what you do. And never feel like you aren't worth something just because you haven't gotten a co-sign.

Stay true to your vision and you could be the next 38 year old peaking at a time in your life when most people have leveled off or hit a midlife crisis. Whether it's in music or whatever else. If you want more artist case studies like this check us out on IG

Recommended If You Like Thread - July 25, 2020

Posted: 25 Jul 2020 11:04 AM PDT

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

Posted: 25 Jul 2020 02:28 AM PDT

We need to talk about Talib Kweli.

Posted: 25 Jul 2020 05:29 PM PDT

To begin, I think it's important to note how musically formative Kweli is for a lot of people here, including me. Albums like Blackstar and Quality are fantastic pieces of music that have stood the test of time. But his antics on his (former) twitter account need to be called out.

For the uninformed, Twitter user @moneyymaya made a (now deleted) remark about how rappers tend to get engaged with light-skinned black women or white women. Now, regardless of the validity of these claims, someone who has the slightest bit of social training wouldn't even bother to respond to these claims, or if they did, not spend nearly an entire month harassing a user over them. Sadly, Kweli seems to lack those fundamental skills.

Talib Kweli dragged on this topic every single day from July 6th to the suspension (or deactivation?) of his Twitter on July 23rd. that's just over Two Weeks. Two weeks of Kweli using his platform of one million followers to target and drag a woman over a point that didn't even really need to be made. All over a perceived calling out of his ego.

Moneyymaya stated that she received Death Threats over her feud with him. I shouldn't have to explain why this isn't okay. Kweli's leaving of twitter didn't even stop the harassment, as he's now moved on to attacking her with Fake Screenshots on Instagram and Patreon (?).

We need to have a discussion about Kweli doing this, and how it isn't okay. I don't necessarily agree with Maya's original comments but it in no way warrants harassment over two weeks. Kweli deserves to be held accountable for the reckless irresponsibility of his actions on twitter.

[DISCUSSION] Is Curren$y The Most Consistent Modern Day Rapper? Has He Established Himself As A Modern Hip-Hop Great?

Posted: 25 Jul 2020 08:29 AM PDT

I've been sitting with this new Curren$y x Harry Fraud tape (which is so fucking good) all day and it had me thinking... Has Spitta cemented himself as a modern Hip-Hip great by producing quality content consistently for the past decade plus? I think so, but does the general Hip-Hop community do? Now, I am a huge Spitta fan so I may be a bit biased, but I can honestly say that out of every tape he has released in the last 10+ years, not all have been classics but a lot have.

Some things that need to be stated about Siptta is his ability to pick beats. He has a fucking fantastic ear for beats and that alone have made some of his albums top notch. Mix it with the smooth flows and you have some dope music. Even lyrically, Curren$y is not the most lyrical rapper out but he can spit. I always thought he really went hard lyrically on Covert Coup and it's a reason why that mixed with ALC beats make it a classic. That brings me to another point, he picks the right people to work with. Whether it's Harry Fraud, Ski Beatz, Alchemist, Sledgren, LNDN Drugs, Cool & Dre or Monsta Beatz. He is also so good at collaborating with a producer for an entire album like he did with Pilot Talk I & II, Covert Coup, and Cigarette Boats. Same with rappers. He picks the kind of rapper that mixes so well with him and compliments the sound so well.

Curren$y started out with No Limit and then moved to Young Money but it's clear that once he ventured out himself he because Curren$y and created quite the legacy for himself which is why I only named tapes released after his No Limit/Young Money time.

Toxic sexism in this sub

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 07:37 AM PDT

I don't know if shit is getting worse or I'm just becoming more aware of it, but the wildly blatant sexism and ignorance on this sub is extremely toxic.

I know that this sub is nearly all men, young men especially, and it's truly painful to see how threads play out when the post is centered around a woman (for example the threads on Megan getting shot).

Anyone with me on this? What can we do about it? It's so draining being a woman who frequents this space. I'd like to continue spending time on here cause it's a great place to discuss hip hop but damn I'm about ready to unsubscribe and move on.

Edit: while we're here let's also talk about the racism that oozes from this sub whenever issues of race are brought up

Edit 2: y'all are really focused on the ONE example I gave. Sexism runs deep in a wild number of threads. After seeing thousands of comments over the years and getting in many back and forths, I finally had to say something

Billboard reveals Travis Scott potentially made $500,000 from his in-game performance on Fortnite: "deals can include a back-end bonus... and that’s to say nothing of the millions an artist like Scott can rake in from both virtual and physical merch.”

[FIRST IMPRESSIONS] Logic - No Pressure

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:46 PM PDT

Maryland rapper Logic bids farewell through dropping what he acknowledges as his final album, 'No Pressure'.

Many believe the album to already act as a return to form, after a series of somewhat disappointing albums in recent years.

The title acts as an acknowledgement to his debut album, 'Under Pressure'.

Executive producer No I.D. and mainstay producer 6ix ensure heavily soul-sampled beats and instrumentals.

What do you think of this album?

How does it compare to the rest of his catalogue?

Do you think Logic will actually retire?
