>>73125138
Just wondering, why? Is it the "nerdy" pop culture refrences or are you not into trap at all? His early tapes with Raider Klan are pretty great Memphis inspired hip hop and Nostalgia64 is one of the best trap albums ever. If you listened too Imperial, it's actually one of his worse albums.

I think Kool AD is really good. His wordplay and punchlines consistently get a smile from me, great taste in beats and music in general, very chill without getting boring, he's able to share positive ideas and genuine POVs without sounding anything close to preachy, he can spit for minutes and minutes without stopping, and he makes a LOT of music. I can understand some people disliking his lolrandom pop culture references, and maybe its just because we grew up in the same area, but his stream of consciousness makes a lot of sense to me, and it carries a lot of personality that I just don't pick up on with most rappers.

If you liked Das Racist at all but never checked out his solo stuff, Word OK is a really great album.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rXE8KiQqAk

>>73125719
ya and the whole love theme on his album was fucking stupid. Mick jenkins has the potential to be top 5 rapper. His bars and flow are fucking incredible. He needs to stop fucking singing and start spitting more.

As of right now its Vince Staples, Earl, and LUCKI Ecks.

Rap has been pretty stagnant. Most people's sounds are overplayed or they're over saturating themselves(--->Travis Scott).

Theres been lots of flops...Blank Face, TLOP, Playboi Carti, ASAP Ferg's most recent project, DAMN.

Specifaclly, i was really upset with Playboi Carti. All he had to do was use the formula he used on tracks like Broke Boi, Speedy Gonzales, and Hollyfield but instead he but to much weight in adlibs and half rapping.

TLDR: In general, most artists aren't expanding things
>>
>>73125772
In what world was Blank Face a flop?
>>
>>73125741
Tbh the only tracks I really liked on THC were Plugged and Drowning. But yeah, he definitely has potential.
>>
>>73125790
if you pay attention to all of the "flops" he posted, they were all reviewed as >7 by anthony fantano
>>
>>73125790
Oxymoron was better. Black Face suffered from the same issues though. Q needs to be way pickier with the guest verses he allows on his projects. Too bad popular hip hop is such a fucking circlejerk and rappers will constantly put out really flawed LPs with all their friends hopping on for a 3/10 verse.
>>
>>73125772
Did you really not like Carti's album? I thought it was one of the best trap rap albums in general. The production on the album is just as beautiful as it was on Broke Boi, specifically Location. And while he does have a lot of adlibs, he does also have quite a few bars that people ignore.

>>73125790
Blank Face was pretty disappointing. Oxymoron wasn't great, but it had a few classic songs. I can not remember much from Blank Face, other than Kanye's Chipotle line.
>>
>>73125737
I feel ya. Love kool ad. Best rapper in the world.

I've haven't watched a Fantano review so I wouldn't know. Never really understood why so many people are interested in him.

>>73125836
I know what you mean. There's tracks on it that Q could've and probably should've cut (specifically Overtime). I think Blank Face with .Paak was supposed to be the closer because it sure feels like it. But yeah, it sold way less than Oxymoron, but I wouldn't call it a flop. Flop is like Joey's album.

>>
>>73126013
He's big enough now to be expecting more, I think he sold less than B4DASS. But getting sandwiched between Drake and Kendrick doesn't help anyone's cause.
>>
>>73125790

There was nothing new or interestig on imo. It was a one time listen thing and nothing made me really wanna come back...I'd give it a 6/10
>>
>>73125847

Carti's album was 50/50...New Choppa, Magnoilia, Locations, Broke Niggaz, and another one were tough, then there was the rest where i kinda just blanked out and skipped
>>
>>73125818

Lol true. I tend to agree or nearly agree with Fantano on rap releases. Imo, most rap these days doesn't really deserve above a 6...Migos release was pretty fucking tough tho
>>
Speaking of rap lately I've been trying to make my own tracks and I've been trying really hard to pay close attention to the construction of the tracks that the best rappers use does anyone have suggestions for rappers that have especially creative tracks they rap over?
>>
>>73126222

Aside from the usual Verse/Hook song form, theres a form where the hook is the center of the song. Like 16 bars for the hook, 16 for a verse, and then finish the song with the hook again.

The intro and outro are optional.

Examples:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ackI4JNQAM

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6g-yDitPz8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aq81qz-iA-o

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJXNk00KpZE

These songs are generally less than 2:30 long.

In Lucki's song its kinda just one long verse. It works well cause he's usually xan'd out and raps slow.

This

>>73128168
Biggie is one of the main reasons hiphop commercialised and turned radio friendly in the first place. Can't deny that he was a great rapper but he sure hurt the culture. Also lacks material to be GOAT, probably would have fell off if he didn't die, in the same way a lot more people would consider eminem GOAT if he died after MMLP.

But this thread isn't about GOAT but personal favorite. Sean Price is mine. Made some top tier material with Heltah Skeltah/Boot Camp. Pretty hardcore but still a goofy bastard, punchline GOAT and good freestyler. Plus no bullshit.

>>73130534
If you're going to use critical acclaim to settle if Biggie or El-P is better you're on shallow water. Production is unrelated to the discussion at hand. Ready to Die alone carries more influence and impact than El-P ever has done or ever will do.

It makes sense that Biggie's discography is as limited as it is, but both ready to die and life after death are enough to prove he was an extremely talented rapper, huge mic presence, top flow, etc. I like El-P more than I do Biggie as an artist, El-P is a good songwriter, and you're right his albums are good, as is RTJ, however none of them are widely regarded as classics and you're deluded if you think they are. In addition, this argument is in regard to being a rapper, and if you take El-P's rap skills at face values he's got a boring flow, lack of energy and certainly lacks traits of a good MC.

or in other words fuck you weeb trash take your backpack and go home to minnesota where someone might agree with you

I like technical rapping with cuh-razy rhyme schemes and shit like that, so my favorite rapper is prolly Eminem. I don't even give a fuck he hasn't made anything half decent since Eminem Show, I like his modern day nonsence bars barrage.
Also MF DOOM, dr. octagon, Earl Sweatshirt and Kendrick are honorable mentions. I would say Slaughterhouse but no, it's just eminem worship but worse

Madlibb did have some phenomenal beats all over the album, but I don't think there is another rapper who could have rapped over those beats as well as Gibbs did, at least not today. And Cold Day in Hell is a good mixtape, Pronto is a perfect short EP, and You Only Live 2wice was a great release post-prison.

ye i wouldn't have mentioned him if i didn't really like Her Favorite Colour, Give Me My Flowers, Jesus tape, and York!.. Good to be home is alright too

He needs to collab with Exile again.

So much angst though. He talks about some seriously deep shit but I have to be in the mood for it
E&A is the GOAT duo with the exception of Outkast imo

Danny Brown/Outer Space/ XXX

Knows a lot about every genre. Never presents heavy subject matter naively. He doesn't take him seriously and over all stays relate-able and witty.

The Notorious B.I.G.
Unmatched flow to this day, nobody has been close in impersonating his style accurately. Favorite album Ready To Die, favorite track probably Respect.

Childish Gambino is the best rapper evar!! He's so deep and raps about REAL SHIT! Not fucking hoes and money like all the other rappers. I wish more people in my middle school would listen to this underground genius.

What's the consensus on Tedy? I've never seen him discussed on here aside from the meme album cover.

Pusha T is up there as one of my favorites. He's definitely got some of the best wordplay of the 2010's
>>
>>73124904
Kanye West, his lyrics are profound and relatable.

Pinata sounds like liquid garbage.

If this thread is evidence of anything it's that white people have absolutely terrible taste in hip-hop, holy shit.

When I download his songs on Bandcamp, I actually pay for them.

He's the only artist I think I've ever done that for since I started listening to music.

Analogues and 戦場ヶ原 ひたぎ [vol. II] are fucking tight as shit.

His samples, own mixes, flow and lyrics are all on point. Also, he has cute anime grills as his album cover art.

Their first two mix tapes are hip hop mix tap essentials
Also underachievers go hard as fuck

I hope one day the underachievers, flatbush, and pro era make an album.

All time favorite is tough to choose. Been listening to a lot of Kool Moe Dee recently, and I really like his shit, but I don't know if I would call him my favorite. It's a shame that his beef with LL Cool J was a big factor in the demise of his career, Dee was an amazing lyricist and changed the paradigm of rap battles, but at the end of the day he couldn't compete with the amount of hype surrounding LL.

Not really a fan of current mainstream hip hop (which led me back to old school rappers like Moe Dee and Rakim), but I do listen Elzhi and Aesop Rock from time to time. I haven't listened to enough underground stuff to know if there's anyone else I like more.
