The Hip Hop Thread

[Aesop Rocks]

Love that Cudi track.

Didn't Glover release Gambino a while ago? I remember downloading it legally a while back.

The Roots... greatest hip hop group of all time... it's official.



J Cole > Drake... any damn day of the week.

 

[knowsbleed]

BTW... Kanye's song, Power, has one of the gayest lyrics I've ever heard in my life:

"I don’t need yo p***y, b**** I’m on my own d***”

 

[knowsbleed]

Janelle Monae is foine:

Oh God, is that what he says?!

*deletes from iTunes*

 

[RockSP]

btw pt II...


Janelle Monae is foine:

Indeed. She needs to stick to singing, though. Rapping is definitely not her thing

Anyone else guilty of bumping a lot of Ross' features? I mean damn I really don't like the guy, but I can't lie he's making a lot of hits. That BMF joint he has bumps hard. And he probably gave one of his best verses on his new track with Jay:

Which btw, Jay stays coming back with that heat every time people doubt him. Easily one of the hottest bars he's spit in a long while.

I was sayin' the same thing about Ross yesterday. I listen to Hello Goodmorning like everyday

BTW... Kanye's song, Power, has one of the gayest lyrics I've ever heard in my life:

I thought that line was kinda cool haha

 

[ComicChick]

Tightrope

Isn't that supposed to empower you men or some ****?

 

[DDRSkata]

Love that Cudi track.

He's had several releases under Childish Gambino. He put out Sick Boi in 2008, Poindexter in 2009, two mixtapes (I Am Just A Rapper and I Am Just A Rapper 2) earlier this year, and Culdesac on July 3. All of it has been released as free downloads.

Has anyone seen the new Big Sean video? It's not as cool as the J.Cole video, but it's a dope song.

 

[knowsbleed]

Isn't that supposed to empower you men or some ****?

Men don't really need empowerment, we're kind of over-empowered as it is. I think that is a rapist's mentality. Maybe 'Ye wants to force himself upon... himself.

 

[ComicChick]

i could believe it

 

[AndThePickles]

we're kind of over-empowered as it is

Yes, but Kanye is the epitome of over-empowered, hence why he wrote that lyric.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

u mad?

 

[AndThePickles]

Not unless he comes at me. He does make me though

 

[Aesop Rocks]

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Oh noes

 

[Ipodman]

BTW... Kanye's song, Power, has one of the gayest lyrics I've ever heard in my life:

Spoiler

F-ck SNL and the whole cast
Tell ‘em Yeezy said they can kiss my whole ass
More specifically, they can kiss my *******
I’m an *******? You n-ggas got jokes


I don’t need yo’ p-ssy, *****, I’m on my own d-ck
I ain’t gotta power trip, who you goin’ home with?
How ‘Ye doin’? I’m survivin’
I was drinkin’ earlier, now I’m drivin’
Where the bad *****es, huh? Where ya hidin’?
I got the power, make yo’ life so excitin’ (So excitin’)

I have lost all respect for him lol.

 

[Lpilgrim]

anybody here fans of the emcees that came out of the good life cafe and project blowed in LA?

 

[RockSP]

^^Yes, though I don't have much of their stuff besides Freestyle Fellowship's Inner City Griots album. I remember Aceyalone had another group called Haiku Detat...

 

[knowsbleed]

Mike, Aaron and Eddie =

I love his new song "Live Fast, Die Young", but mainly because I love Kanye and his verse on this is great. Plus Kanye produced the track and it sounds gooooooooooooooood.

My outfit is so disrespectful, you can go ahead and sneez because my presence blessed you...

 

[chamber-music]

Kanye never graduated award show etiquette.

Anyone heard rapper Ty album Special Kind Of Fool. Its my rap album of the year so far followed closely by Big Boi's new one.

ive only heard of aceyalone and only one song

 

[The Batman]

No offense, but if people werent so obsessed with the **** he did and apologized for months ago, he wouldnt need to make a song like "Power" in the first place. Hell, maybe we could've gotten a song with "College Dropout" type social commentary instead.
