In 2013, it wasn’t crazy to say The Weeknd was only going to grow in popularity, but he wasn’t well-know that year. Are there any artists that have that same trajectory right now?

Yes, I'm almost 30.

In 2013, 40-50% of 20-something year olds didn't know who The Weeknd was. Pretty much everyone who did considered him talented, though.

Are there any artists that you think have that trajectory right now?

I'm just now starting to realize just how crazy Pharrell's career as a producer has been

Posted: 02 Jul 2022 03:13 AM PDT

So, I've known a few songs by Pharrell Williams. I know he's a great accredited producer. But I went through a Spotify playlist of some of the more notable tracks, and... Wow. I never realized he made half those fucking songs. Holy shit.

The playlist is down at the end of this article

I knew he did stuff like Alright by Kendrick. I know he did Mr. Morale as well. I know he Kelis - Milkshake. And of course you have his own solo stuff, his pop work, etc.

But actually going through his work is insanity. I didn't know he did half of these songs. The fuck kinda list is this! I mean when you hear them all together, you start seeing the connect, the exotic scales, the four count in beat, the heavy bass, and everything.

I'm sure people are more familiar than me, but if you aren't, go listen to that playlist on that article. Gonna guarantee you know a lot of those songs. I knew he was a big deal, but I didn't know he was that big of a deal. And there's probably so many that aren't on there that I know and love. Songs I've had stuck in my head for my whole life

Also, is this man get stem cells or some shit? He's been looking the same since the 90s almost exactly

THE 2022 HALFTIME RATE - HipHop

THE 2022 HALFTIME RATE - HipHop


THE 2022 HALFTIME RATE

Posted: 01 Jul 2022 05:42 AM PDT

As the second half of the year kicks off today, I want to invite you to quickly go over four of the biggest Hip Hop albums that dropped in the first ~180 days of the year. I wanted to keep the selection as accessible as possible, so I chose in favor of some fo the bigger releases of the year. They all deserve the placement though.

Denzel Curry - Melt My Eyez See The Future

This album won the forth spot in the rate, by winning the popular vote in the Rate Announcement post. I didn't rate this album highly initially, but production by quality contributors such as Robert Glasper and Dot Da Genius is making me look forward to the precise listen in the next days.

Originally, I wanted this spot to go to a Midwest rapper's album to represent all of the main regions, but I'm fine with this nomination since Denzel also represents the internet like no other artist here.

Pusha T - It's Almost Dry

Always a safe bet to deliver quality, I thought Pusha's formula would become played out - or dry - by now. However, he spiced it up just enough with the production being jointly handled by Kanye West and Pharrell Williams so to not become boring.

Future - I Never Liked You

Even though long stretches of the newest Future album saw the Freebandzgang boss in auto-pilot this does not mean the album doesn't deserve to be here. Future's talent means that it doesn't take a lot of effort for him to deliver an album that is better than 90% of his peers today.

Kendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers

A lot has been said about overarching themes of this album as a whole, but I am curious how the tracks will score on an individual level. Stripped from their context within the album, do they still hold up? Of course this can be said about every album on here, but this one if particular makes me curious.

A quick reminder on how to do the rate:

READ ALL OF THESE BEFORE SUBMITTING YOUR SCORES

  1. Listen to every song from the standard versions of all four of these albums and assign a score to them between 1 and 10. If you're feeling specific, decimals are okay to one place. Do not use any more than that since they'll break the program used to generate results. So a 6.5 is okay, but a 8.25 is not.

  2. You have to listen and score each song on the ballot! If you miss a score, it'll again break the program and your ballot will not be counted, but I will most likely reach out to you if this is the case.

  3. Your scores are not a secret, feel free to discuss them wherever you feel like, whether that's in the thread or in Daily Discussions. I've seen people comment to try to rally people behind their 11s, which I should also explain…

  4. You may give ONE song an 11 and ONE song a 0. Note one 11 and/or 0 in TOTAL, not for each album. Please reserve these for your most favorite and least favorite tracks, excessive sabotage ruins rate results and generally makes things less fun.

  5. As mentioned, the program used to calculate results uses a specific format, so everything needs to written a specific way. Please use the submission link below to send your scores (there's also a pastebin copy if needed), it's already formatted for you. If you need to work on the ballot over multiple days, you can copy it and save it on a notepad app, but please just make sure to keep the formatting intact, it'll make it easy for both you and me.

  6. You are encouraged to leave comments on as as many songs as you like. If you would like to include comments with your scores, just make sure they are formatted the proper way.

This is correct:

Massaging Me: 7 I just wish this was longer

These are incorrect:

Massaging Me: 7: I just wish this was longer

Massaging Me: I just wish this was longer 7

Massaging Me - 7 I just wish this was longer

Massaging Me: 7 (I just wish this was longer)

You can also leave comments on complete albums by adding a colon after the album name and then your comment (without a score), like so:

I Never Liked You: never underestimate Future to release a masterpiece

SUBMIT HERE

(Pastebin of Empty Ballot in case submission link is down) NOT COMPLETE RN, WILL FIX LATER

Scores are due in 2-3 weeks. Just do it ASAP as I'm sure most of you still have these albums in rotation.
