Trying to be a RnB rapper and not knowing who the fuck he is.

Harry Fraud featuring French Montana & Action Bronson – Mean

Not bad at all. Something about the production doesn't sit right with me but it's not bad at all.

Kid Cudi – Just What I Am f. King Chip (Music Video)

Yes.

The Weeknd - 28 (Radio Rip)

The Weeknd - 28 (Radio Rip)

I don't know how I feel about this.

The Weeknd - 28 (Radio Rip)

I was pretty sure from the snippet I'd love this song. I was right.

Hey guys

Shit, I didn't know The Trilogy was a regular priced CD. Great deal.

Wonder how it'll sell.

might need to mess around with those hi hats, but I like the progress so far. Is that a bladerunner sample I'm hearing?

Edit: Nevermind, haha says it right there. Sorry.

 

[JohnDoe]

Thanks for the feedback. I used a drum break, but I already know I'm going to play the drums myself once I get the time to finish the track.

 

[PBY]

Didn't you guys hear the song when it came out? Lol

I was saying the same thing. That King Wizard song is nice too.

I heard it, liked it. Was commenting on the vibe of the video.

 

[Drugula's Wrath XXX]

No, the only songs i still listen to on the reg are blue sky, ghetto dreams, and raw. Everything else was kinda wack.

Also saigon is following me on twitter whos jealous!!??!

MC Ren follows me on twitter, so I win.

Oh and Elzhi or whatever does as well, haven't listened to any of his stuff though.

Valerie will be the best bonus track on Trilogy #Believe

Meek Mill after 2-3 listens I would have given an 8, now after about 10 listens I can't go higher than 6. I do LOVE Traumatized, Believe It, and Rich & Famous.

GKMC I would have given a 7 after 4-5 listens. Now after some time to let it marinate, and having gone back to in another 4-5 times, it's a 9 for me. Still not AotY, but amazing.

P.O.S I am still digesting.

Here is my current HH backlog:

Skeme - Alive & Living
Vinnie Paz - God of the Serengeti
Sean Price - Mic Tyson
P.O.S. - We Don't Even Live Here
Ab-Soul - Control System
Various Artists - The Man With the Irons Fists OST
Various Artists - G.O.O.D. Music: Cruel Summer
Murs X Fashawn - This Generation
Lupe Fiasco - Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album Part 1
Rick Ross - God Forgives, I Don't
Curren$y - Stoned Immaculate
Big K.R.I.T. - Live from the Underground
B.o.B. - Strange Clouds
nAs - Life is Good

 

[ThanksVision]

listen to this stuff first:
Ab-Soul - Control System
nAs - Life is Good
P.O.S. - We Don't Even Live Here
Skeme - Alive & Living
Various Artists - The Man With the Irons Fists OST
Various Artists - G.O.O.D. Music: Cruel Summer (the first three tracks--even then you could really just listen to this and call it a day)

I haven't listened to these:
Vinnie Paz - God of the Serengeti
Sean Price - Mic Tyson
Murs X Fashawn - This Generation

not worth your time imo:
Lupe Fiasco - Food & Liquor II: The Great American Rap Album Part 1
Rick Ross - God Forgives, I Don't
Curren$y - Stoned Immaculate
Big K.R.I.T. - Live from the Underground
B.o.B. - Strange Clouds

according to itunes I have 175 albums from 2012 I've listened to. Awesome year. I think I'm going to make a "best songs of the year" thread in a couple weeks and compile results, making a definitive GAF list.

You are a bit ahead of me. I'm at 163, IIRC.

 

[HiResDes]

Im winning

 

[Quake1028]

I didn't doubt that. But you listen 24/7 :b.

 

[PBY]

Im winning

I average about 10 mixtapes/albums per week I'd say

 

[ThanksVision]

I unfortunately haven't bought as much music I'd like this year. Going to the west coast for thanksgiving break, I'ma hit up amoeba and buy so many records, my favorites from this year and the last couple years, I can't wait. I don't have a good record store anywhere near me.

 

[coldvein]

i've listened to like 40 new albums this year, none of them anywhere near as good as iron maiden's powerslave. don't know why i bother.

 

[CRS]

New Iron Maiden album?! And it's good?!

 

[coldvein]

no, i think it came out in like.. 83. haha

Oh yeah. :/ I guess I should have read your post a little more thoroughly.

Kid Cudi – Just What I Am f. King Chip (Music Video)

Pretty good.

Can't wait till the album drops. I liked Man on The Moon II.

 

[ShinobiFist]

They announce that a while ago< album is amazing.

Anyway, did you check this out btw?

[overcast]

Definitely don't skip Krit either way, I don't love it, but some would put it at AOTY level.

 

[iavi]

Exquire's Power & Passion is on Spotify for those broke brothas like me.

Carli Zallioni is Cudi as fuck, but hardly as sleepy. I was not expecting that at all.

E: dat Fraud delivery

 

[kamspy]

Mixing on Hands on the Wheel is outstanding. Dude saved ASAP Rocky's life on the boards.

Pretty sure MixedByAli is the real MVP of TDE. Also probably the one who will benefit the most from working with Dre.

 

[cacophony]

Harry Fraud featuring French Montana & Action Bronson &#8211; Mean

wtf is this. I think Fraud smoked a little too much weed before making this. French sounds legit retarded

the new harry fraud frenchie joint is kinda eh

 

[iavi]

Holy shit, Power & Passion is way too short. Fuck the honeymoon period, #EPOTY.

 

[Esch]

Stoned Immaculate was dope, not Spitta's best but I still go back to tons of cuts on that.

He already did.

Ali works with all of them no?

Super hyped for whenever the new Q album comes out.

When does that new Cudi come out?

Edit: misunderstood you Ace. I like their production quite a bit generally..
