Posted: 23 Nov 2020 10:34 PM PST

Denzel Curry goes off filter on Twitter, says he hates rapping and feels unappreciated, thinks about disappearing

"This music industry is bullshit I gotta play a stupid game for me to succeed it's not about the music anymore if it was you'll hear a balance of conscious rap along with everything else being played today"

"I hate rapping I watched my hobby that I did in my room become something I can't even enjoy anymore because everyone has a opinion"

"How many years I have to do to get the respect I deserve"

"Everyone else fail to recognize my genius and influence But you guys get me"

"People can't say how they really when it comes down to work and quite frankly I feel unappreciated a lot and I'm sick of it"

"Interviews only talk to me to ask about Jahs life ... bro if they really wanted to know him they should've asked him when he was here to actually speak for himself"

"I live in a era where you make a few good songs you die then become a legend In that case Fuck being legendary"

"I'm going make bad music so you can understand how much work it is a making good music"

'I'm just going disappear from y'all ass and do what the fuck I wanna do and say what I wanna say"

​

Upd:

STOP saying I need Imperial Denzel Or Taboo Denzel or N64 Denzel or Raider Klan Denzel Those times are no longer with us but the music is still there for you

All I want is y'all to love me openly and I can give you me unapologetically

Anthony Fantano here

— Speaking as a melon who does a lot of opinions, nobody's opinion matters when it comes to you doing your craft. Nobody's. You're on the field, and we're literally just spectating, digesting, contextualizing, understanding among ourselves what's going on.

— And all that comes back to me and creates pressure

— It does, but remember there's a hierarchy. The reactions to what you do aren't THE THING; what you do is THE THING. Without you, there's no crowd or even a REACTION—much less a negative one. You're the spark. The fire from it will not be entirely predictable or controllable.

— That spark is dimming

[FRESH MIXTAPE] Phife Dawg x Pharcyde - DollarCabOnLinden Blendtape

Posted: 22 Nov 2020 10:01 AM PST

​

https://preview.redd.it/z6sfsce3zt061.jpg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7156b0cc67d6dc98963b91440c63d84e21e3815c

​

Mike Rapaport and I are pleased to present this blendtape tribute to Phife Dawg, on what would've been his 50th birthday Nov.20, 2020.

Few acts are lucky enough to reach the iconic status of ATCQ, and that's exactly what Phife was....an icon. Not only in music, but in pop culture in general. I was gutted to learn of his passing in 2016. His music meant a lot to me growing up, as it did to all of us, so I had to celebrate this milestone.

This project is also paying homage to Pharcyde's classic 'Labcabincalifornia', which also turned 25 this past weekend. There are already a bunch of ATCQ-themed tribute mixes to Phife, so I opted to go a different route and use his solo LP 'Ventilation'. I felt that Phife's bouncy flow matched up well with the soulful bounce of Labcab's production, courtesy of J Dilla, The Pharcyde, Diamond D, and M-Walk. So I fused the 2 together, and the result is 'DollarCabOnLinden'.

Happy 50th to Malik Taylor aka Phife Dawg aka The Funky 5 Footer aka The Trini Gladiator aka Phife Diggy aka 5 Foot Assassin aka Mutty Ranks!

This mix is also dedicated to our fallen brother DJ Spinbad. Rest in peace.

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

ALSO please check out this thread for a list of some of the most popular recommendation requests and the suggestions provided

[DISCUSSION] Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (10 Years Later)

Posted: 21 Nov 2020 09:00 PM PST

On this day in 2010, Kanye drops My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

The culmination of self-imposed exile in Hawaii months after the infamous VMA incident, Kanye enlisted the help of a star-studded "Rap Camp" including the likes of Jay-Z, Beyonce, RZA, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, Pusha T, Kid Cudi, among others. A Complex article detailing the creation process can be found here.

This album was preceded by "G.O.O.D. Fridays" with songs from these studio sessions dropping every week in anticipation of the project's drop. He then dropped a 35 minute film "Runaway" to accompany the album which included most songs off the project. It quickly debuted atop the Billboard 200 the following week and floored critics receiving rave reviews for what can be argued as his magnum opus. It went on to receive the Grammy for Best Rap Album in 2012.

10 years later, there's a lot to be said about what this album did for Kanye and where it sits in his career.

  1. Dark Fantasy (feat. Nicki Minaj, Teyana Taylor & Bon Iver)

  2. Gorgeous (feat. Kid Cudi & Raekwon) add. vocals by Tony Williams

  3. POWER (feat. Dwele) add. vocals by Alvin Fields & Kenneth Lewis

  4. All Of The Lights (Interlude)

  5. All Of The Lights (feat. Rihanna, Elly Jackson, Kid Cudi, Fergie, Drake, Alicia Keys & Elton John) add. vocals by Alvin Fields, Kenneth Lewis, John Legend, Tony Williams, Ryan Leslie, The-Dream & Charlie Wilson

  6. Monster (feat. Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, Bon Iver & Charlie Wilson)

  7. So Appalled (feat. Jay-Z, Pusha T, CyHi The Prynce, Swizz Beatz & RZA)

  8. Devil In A New Dress (feat. Rick Ross)

  9. Runaway (feat. Pusha T) add. vocals by Tony Williams

  10. Hell Of A Life add. vocals by Teyana Taylor & The-Dream

  11. Blame Game (feat. John Legend)

  12. Lost In The World (feat. Bon Iver) add. vocals by Alvin Fields, Kenneth Lewis, Tony Williams, Charlie Wilson, Alicia Keys, Kaye Fox & Elly Jackson

  13. Who Will Survive In America (feat. Gil-Scott Heron)

Points for Discussion

  • Where does this sit among his discography?

  • Is this album truly influential or is it just an amazing project on its own? Many claim it changed the sphere of hip-hop but how did it do so?

  • Favorite song here? Favorite beat?

  • Is this a classic album?
