Cole stan is worse tbh. Lupe at least has a couple decent projects under his belt

So much this. I remember bumping Born Sinner and was like...nah not feeling it. Some Cole stan was calling me all types of haters and saying I wasn't "really listening" to the album. I'm like the fuck I gotta do...tap into the binary code of the mp3s to change my mind.

Fuck outta here. His fanbase are insane.

Bumping IYRTITL again, Madonna still might be one of my favorite flows this year.

Just played Rocket League for the first time. Local coop with 4 homies was a blast.

GAF-Hop is bliss, brehs. GAF for me is basically only this place and FFXV threads nowadays. One love.

The second half of OK Alright is like the best thing on Rodeo. How is this a deluxe edition bonus track?

smh @ rappers

EDIT: Never Catch Me is dope too. How do Piss on Your Grave, Flying High, and Wasted make the standard cut but these are sidelined as bonus tracks? smh @ hip-hop

Boi1da also did Trust for Nas. Dope track.

I wonder what Blacker The Berry sounded like before Kendrick's team redid the drums. Some of my favorite drums on a song this year...that shit just knocks.

Company is my favorite.

Either way, all I'm saying is Boi1 & Vinylz >>>>>40


Boi1 is probably my favorite producer right now.

I agree that Drake really worked well and sounded refreshing on non-40 beats on IYRTITL (though I just realized that Madonna was produced by him, huh). I dig this new generation of producers like Boi-1da, Allen Ritter, London on da Track, Metro Boomin etc. Sonically they strike a very nice balance of melancholic/dreamy and flames. For example the intro of Maria on Rodeo or a lot of Barter 6 sound like straight out of a FF or obscure JRPG, just with Trap beats on top.

Musical Tastes

1. Pick a Coast to rep (Chiraq or Atlantistan) - ATL
2. What’s your favorite subgenre of rap? (Conscious/Backpack, Trap/Drill, Mafioso, WC Gangsta, Swag, Weed, Hyphy, Club, etc) – Depends on my mood. Sometimes I love to bang some gangsta shit in the car and other times I’ll chill to some conscious stuff.
3. Favorite Artists (Pick Five) – Chance The Rapper, Fashawn, Curren$y, Wale, Pusha T
4. Favorite Artists Outside of Hip-Hop (Pick Five) – Miguel, Frank Ocean, Jagged Edge…any smooth baby making music. Outside of Rap and RnB, I don’t listen to anything else.
5. What was your hip-hop AOTY last year? What’s your current hip-hop AOTY? Wale – The Album About Nothing. I know how much hate there is for Wale but it’s one album I can ALWAYS listen from start to finish and enjoy it every time. Current AOTY is TPAB for sure.
6. What are you listening to right now? Chance The Rapper – Acid Rap
7. What’s something you like that you might consider a guilty pleasure? What’s something you haven’t listened to that you think a hip-hop aficionado might give you shit for? Guilty Pleasure- My girl plays Taylor Swift all the time. I secretly like some of that shit haha!
Something I’ll cop shit for- Wale’s, TAAN being my AOTY last year.
8. Rank a Random Rapper’s Discography (Pick Someone With > 3 Albums)
Lupe Fiasco – The Cool > Tetsuo & Youth > Food N Liquor (did not feel the production at all) > Food N Liquor II > Lasers (let’s forget that album happened)

GAF-Hop Discusses

1. What do you like about the current state of hip-hop? What’s missing from the game? I like that albums such as TPAB and 2014FHD are selling such high figures. People are showing they like to actually hear some talent regardless of how little radioplay they get (over here in Australia anyway).
2. Who’s Your Favorite Wu-Tang Member? Method Man
3. Jay-Z or Nas? Biggie or Pac? Young Thug or OG Maco? Nas. Pac. Young Thug.
4. What Hip-Hop Album Are You Currently Anticipating? King Push – Pusha T. Cannot fucking wait.
5. Who is the Most Underrated Emcee? Who is the Most Overrated?
Underrated: King Los, dude could go toe to toe with anyone bar for bar. God, Money, War showed he has improved his songwriting and looking forward to his proper debut.
Overrated: Em, of course.
6. Would You Rather Eat An Ass or Have Your Ass Eaten? Neither. My experience with the former was horrendous.
7. Onions, Avocados, Both, or Neither? Onions.
8. Do you still listen to Eminem? Why? Not often. Occassionally I’ll play Eminem Show or Relapse.
9. Who’s your favorite pop artist? And who’s the finest? Answer to both- T swizzle.
10. Recall a personal event that went down about a week ago...Had a job for a day and quit. I’ve done that a few times aha.

It also confirms our theory that "big as Mutombo" is still the most used athlete reference in hip hop

How much a dollar really cost?
The question is detrimental, paralyzin' my thoughts
Parasites in my stomach keep me with a gut feeling, y'all
Gotta see how I’m chillin' once I park this luxury car
Hopping out feeling big as Mutombo
20 on pump 6, dirty Marcellus called me Dumbo
20 years ago, can't forget
Now I can lend all my ear or two how to stack these residuals
Tenfold, the liberal concept of what men'll do
20 on 6, he didn't hear me
Indigenous African only spoke Zulu
My American tongue was slurry
Walked out the gas station
A homeless man with a semi-tan complexion
Asked me for ten rand, stressin' about dry land
Deep water, powder blue skies that crack open
A piece of crack that he wanted, I knew he was smokin'
He begged and pleaded
Asked me to feed him twice, I didn't believe it
Told him, "Beat it"
Contributin' money just for his pipe, I couldn't see it
He said, "My son, temptation is one thing that I've defeated
Listen to me, I want a single bill from you
Nothin' less, nothin' more"
I told him I ain't have it and closed my door
Tell me how much a dollar cost

Musical Tastes

1. Pick a Coast to rep (Chiraq or Atlantistan) - Midwest
2. What’s your favorite subgenre of rap? (Conscious/Backpack, Trap/Drill, Mafioso, WC Gangsta, Swag, Weed, Hyphy, Club, etc) - Diss tracks
3. Favorite Artists (Pick Five) - Eminem, Method Man, Redman, Kendrick Lamar, and Royce Da 5'9
4. Favorite Artists Outside of Hip-Hop (Pick Five) - Honestly none since I mostly listen to rap
5. What was your hip-hop AOTY last year? What’s your current hip-hop AOTY? Forest Hills(didn't listen to many albums in 2014). Compton this year for now.
6. What are you listening to right now? - Still Compton with a mix of some older albums like Cheers
7. What’s something you like that you might consider a guilty pleasure? What’s something you haven’t listened to that you think a hip-hop aficionado might give you shit for? I like to lose myself in music from video games mostly Final Fantasy music. I now here it's not that big of a deal but it still counts
8. Rank a Random Rapper’s Discography (Pick Someone With > 3 Albums)Ludacris Word of Mouth>Chicken and Beer> The Redlight District> Ludaversal> TOTM> Release Therapy(Never listened to BFTFT)

GAF-Hop Discusses

1. What do you like about the current state of hip-hop? What’s missing from the game? I like what Kendrick and J. Cole bring to the table. I can't really say there's anything missing but just that there more whack ass music in the mainstream then before. Not to mention there's people so thirsty for a rap beef that we were excited to see Drake and Meek Mill beef(Twitter made that beef even though B2B was nice)
2. Who’s Your Favorite Wu-Tang Member? Method Man
3. Jay-Z or Nas? Biggie or Pac? Young Thug or OG Maco? Nas(if you would of asked me this in 2001 I'd of said Jay). Pac. Not entertaining the third choice.
4. What Hip-Hop Album Are You Currently Anticipating? The Documentery 2
5. Who is the Most Underrated Emcee? Who is the Most Overrated? Under- Royce. Over- Rick Ross
6. Would You Rather Eat An Ass or Have Your Ass Eaten? Eat ass. I'm an ass addict just love sticking my tongue in there while she shakes it still. Luckly I haven't had a bad experience with it yet
7. Onions, Avocados, Both, or Neither? Neither
8. Do you still listen to Eminem? Why? Em's my favorite rapper still. Cause listening to verses like Psychopath Killer and Medicine Man and others, he's still a good rapper. The internet hate is just crazy to me but to each it's own I guess
9. Who’s your favorite pop artist? And who’s the finest? I'm a just cheat and say Justin Timberlake by default. Also i just want to add fuck P!nk for starting out R&B then going pop.
10. Recall a personal event that went down about a week ago... I got nothing.

Warm welcome to both of the recent entries, but I gotta there are some scust answers amidst. Rank Lupe's most solid entry third. Have a Wale album be your album of the year brehs. Answer neither to the onions or avocados question. Be another generic J. Cole stan breh or think Rick Ross is overrated and Royce has any truly great projects. Refer to Taylor Swift as T. Swizzle and think she's the finest. Truly believe there's a hard delineation between pop and RnB these days.
