Yelawolf was a completely fucked situation. He needed at least one more mixtape in order to capitalise on the hype from 0-60 . A feature on an eminem track somewhere wouldn't hurt either. Kanye did it right with Big Sean. Jay did it right with Cole. Shady just dropped the fucking ball.

hyper-insular communities (he says without a hint of irony) fog your nuts harder when you do dumb shit. thread taught me that judges award indie games they don't even play, it was interesting.
I might have to check it out. Just checked the production list and it looks nice. Gotta check that Bangladesh track, love his stuff.

didn't you also say schoolboy q was a classic?
I thought about it but I have other plans.
Because "gaming journalism" is pathetic for the most part. There is only one website I go to anymore for games, and I only really listen to their podcast.

Giant Bomb?

Nope, I actually didnt like it at first, but after awhile his album grew on me. Now Section 80 I thought was a classic for me.
It may be hard to get into now due to the jokes that rely on past episodes and their personalities. But its really funny if you like games.
I wish it was longer. Sometimes it does go over 3 hours. They go off on a bunch of tangents, like a craigslist adventure to procure a pc flight stick. Shit is gold.
Time flies when you're having fun. Or just listen to it in chunks.
EDIT: Oh shit, actually, listen to last years California Extreme podcast. I'll try find it. Great stories in those. I'm so nice I even found it for you.

Sometimes even 3, but it is funny and you really dont even notice the time unless it is a game that you really could care less about.
Vinny really is the most hilarious person. He needs to buy a racing wheel already.
From what I could put together:
-someone (4chan?) photoshops some video games for sale on a website that don't exist/haven't been announced, posing it as a leak of future release
-shopped image gets to a gaming news site somehow
-site puts it up as news without checking to see if it's real
-every other major gaming site jumps on board and reports it
-image turns out to be fake
-one guy starts posting on GAF defending himself, saying it's our job to prove it's fake, and not his job as a "journalist" to verify its legitimacy

i used to love their podcast, before the whole paid members thing kicked in. then i just stoped going to GB.
it was really laid back and mostly about gaming. from what i remember.
ASAP isn't total ass. Clams does wayyy too much Lil B shit though. It's hard to see that talent wasted.

That is... so awesome

the only reason he isn't total ass is because he can somewhat ride a beat.

I only subscribed to whiskey for tested's lego thing. I have no idea why paid subscriptions turned you off of GB, since most of their content isnt premium.
Yea. The amount of free content is still really good. I miss being a subscriber, gotta reup soon.
Jar Time is good stuff, same with the thing Will does.

ah, misread that, my bad.
seriously though, how do you deliver on all the hype (even deflated at this point) jay elec's debut has around it? if it's got 1 or 2 more exhibit C (much less B) tier tracks, and the rest is serviceable, is that enough?

Biggie died 15 years ago. Lets post our favorite songs:
Suicidal Thoughts - his most intense and emotional song - everything sounds so personal. The beat is haunting, really suits the mood. Perfect ending to that album. Take out Puff talking and this would be a perfect song.
Me and My Bitch - At first this sounds like just another generic macho rap. But each verse adds perfectly to the story, and the last line of the song -
sums it up perfectly. Another great beat, but once again PUFF IS TALKING DURING THE WHOLE SONG. PLEASE STOP!!!!
Niggas Bleed - Biggie's storytelling skills are second to none. This is a Tarantino movie in song format, and it's fucking brilliant. Added bonus: NO PUFF!!! The beat is once again great, and the way is changes during the actual robbery is subtle but really effective.

I just don't understand some of the love for Yelawolf here. Can someone explain it to me? Because I just don't see it. There's no fucking way.

Have you listened to Trunk Muzik? Let's Roll? Shady 2.0 freestyle? Rack City freestyle?
The guy has a load of talent. Most people disliked Radioactive though.
He's talented. I mean, if you're into that sound I don't really see how you couldn't like Yela, except for the whole "country" thing.
What about him don't you get?
Oh, and GAF-Hop should be checking out White Jesus Revival. Fuck. Bloody Murdah is a beast of a track.

Holy shit this bangs. Motherfucking battle music.
EDIT: fuck. I couldn't stop smiling through that whole video. This is now front and center on my radar.
Also, fuck the double post, but damn this is the best beat I've heard this year. Swag as shit. His whole tape is good.
Check it:

Too early to say, there sure will be some surprises later on I think. But yeah Gunplay bangs. I'm a believer.
And also my favorite beat on that Woody ep is All Night, All Day. Drippin Swagu is pretty hype tho....
lemonade freestyle is also dope

That Swaggu beat is pretty good, I love that sample. Last of the Dying Breed on Ludacris Theater of the mind used the same sample, was probably my favorite beat on that album.
Gimme the Loot, always was my favorite biggie song.
this shit is hype as fuck

Gunplay and Meek Mill are the best things in MMG. Welcome to the church of gunplay. GET HYPE

I don't even count the original Rick Ross x Wale track as the right version. It doesn't exist. All that matters is Gunplay's "Tats on My arm" freestyle.

The revival is upon us. May White Jesus absolve us of our sins and if he can't do that, I will settle for some fucking good music...
Rittz - White jesus: Revival
Too bad this isn't a completely new project cause I really like most of the new material.
So Strange = so good.
Juicy, Notorious Thugs(i love rapping this song through), Ten Crack Commandments, Gimme The Loot.
