We need a GAF-Hop meme for the double standards that go on in here day to day.

LIL WAYNE IS TRASH

DEFEND GUCCI.
Here, let me make it clear.

Lil'Wayne sucks, Gucci sucks, Lil'B sucks.

No one else cared when I posted it but for what it's worth, I think the David Banner x 9th Wonder death of a pop star ep/album is good. Particularly the 1st track/intro and this one:

Great interview with Young Guru, Jay-Z's engineer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJx-TTYI

Says he's in London to listen to Jay Electronica's album, and also discusses him in general, Exhibit C, etc.

is the link not working? right now all i got was "The URL contained a malformed video ID."

I'll be honest, I find a lot of what GAF-hop likes to be garbage. Wiz, Kanye, etc.

If people tell me about an artist, and they go, "Yeah, his lyrics may not be great, but. . . . . " Then, I tend to dislike that artist. Just my own opinion, though.

Actually ran into a physical copy of Oneirology yesterday. Bought it and am finally getting a good playthrough in.

Big KRIT's feature is so good.

I agree with Wiz though

Anyone else had a listen of The Family Sign by Atmosphere?

It's really good. Not typical hip-hop, but it's production is great and there are some real good beats on it.

She's Enough
My Notes

I was hoping for a return to form honestly, but after a few spins it definitely has some real smooth production. I still worry about ANT getting soft though. Gone are the days of the hard and scratchy God Loves Ugly sound I suppose.

That's one of the best interviews I've seen in a while. Young Guru knows his stuff.
Seriously, I'm watching all these Young Guru interviews now and I'm wondering why I haven't earlier. This guy is a fucking genius, and drops hardcore knowledge in every interview. He's so.. real. And educated.

I can agree with you, but I'm still really enjoying this album. Might be one of my favourites, but I've only spun it 3 times. Got a ton of new music to get through, don't know where to start ha

Wtf does that noise in the 6'7 beat say? Fun banana?

one banana I think. I love that beat. That video definitely was a huge missed opportunity though. Fuck Inception. They should have just looped the BeetleJuice clip over and over.

I feel you. Godlovesugly is still my favorite. Obviously overcast was awesome. I do miss the more hip hop oriented ant.

Real g's move in silence simile is awful.

"Niggas say I'm nice with metaphors, but these is similes"

Artist: Common
Year: 1999
Track: 1999

My favorite bar of all time, because some things never change.

I don't really know you so you might not of known the differences between similes and metaphors. It doesnt hurt to educate anyway

Lyrically Kanye is terrible? GTFO, LOL. His rapping skills might be up for debate, but that's just ridiculous.

He has been on a decline since The College Dropout IMO, not huge drop,but its been noticeable,lyrically speaking.

I'm not saying Kanyes a terrible rapper, but I won't smack someone in the face for holding that opinion.
I don't disagree, but I think calling him terrible lyrically is a smackable offense.
