It's okay SoilBreak, this is GAf-Hop. We eat our young. Some don't survive (Ken Masters and every GAF Hopsin fan and thread maker).

 

[thabiz]

[thabiz]

i gotta get a titan. my 570's are showing their age.

 

[kamspy]

recalibrate your gear?

TV is cal'd.

Pretty sure seeing it in Sony 4k in the theaters spoiled me.

It's also a movie that really benefits from a big screen.

Whenever I watch 2001 Space Oddy I pull back the coffee table and sit right in front of the TV. Same thing.


Either way, the Dredd BD blows. Bummer. One of my top 5 movies from last year.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Also next level harry fraud beat. Could you imagine Spitta over this shit? based tears right now

[thabiz]

this is fucked up.

 

[Sis Focaccia]

Which MCs from the last 5-10 years would you say are generally best regarded by hip-hop fans? Like, is there anything close to consensus...?

 

[thabiz]

kenneth lamar.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Kendrick Lamar

 

[Discotheque]

Also next level harry fraud beat. Could you imagine Spitta over this shit? based tears right now

http://youtu.be/MCNv6O2femY

no doubt. feels wasted on chevy woods tbh, but then i'm not a fan.

this beat is beautiful.

 

[Sis Focaccia]

Right, Kendrick Lamar is one I have checked out, he's good! In general I'm a big fan of rap from the 80s and 90s but haven't really followed the scene much for the past 10 years.

I realize most rappers nowadays are polarizing (I can't really vibe with Kanye for instance, but lots of hip-hop fans love him) so let's say... who would you say are the 5-10 rappers worth forming an opinion of, whether they're universally acclaimed or not? Here are the ones on my list so far that I'm going to spend some time with:

Drake
Rick Ross
Lil B
Odd Future collective (Earl and Tyler The Creator seem to be the most interesting?)
A$ap Rocky
Danny Brown
Das Racist

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

Big KRIT and Kendrick are probably the most revered by the broadest spectrum of fans.

5-10 rappers worth forming an opinion of

The two mentioned above, as well as those listed below. This is largely based on my personal preferences, it probably won't align with much of gaf-hop. Worth a listen to decide for yourself regardless.

Captain Murphy

Aesop Rock
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=478qwzcJtlM

Joey Bada$$$
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4xYGFc9Yw4

ASAP Rocky
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofoIMg76Sng

Flatbush Zombies
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do9VLONS86Y


They all have pretty different styles, so if you update me with who you like/don't like I can give more suggestions similar to those artists.

[Trey]

Kendrick, no doubt about it at all. There were some promising dudes in the last decade or so but they all flamed out one way or another.

As an aside, listening to Lauryn Hill makes my day better. Probably my go to artist when I'm feeling some kind of way.

 

[Discotheque]

danny brown
schoolboy q
currensy
big krit

More elaboration, preferably a link

 

[//B1G]

Dopplegangaz is sick lyrically but I feel like they're jamming so many syllables in their lines it's losing an actual flow to be melodic in any way. Beats are on point though, all around solid release.

I was just making an assumption since Shinobi does produced

Judging by gaf hop discussion, you should probably have an opinion on
Blu
MF DOOM
Kendrick Lamar
Big K.R.I.T.
Jay Electronica
Gucci Mane
Young Jeezy
Kid Cudi
E-40
uhhh 2Chainz?
or you can just stay stuck in the 90's like some members. That's more than enough out there...
plus those in your list of course

 

[Pinko Marx]

I'm really in the mood for some dark, space out, hip-hop. Something to listen to late at night while smoking a blunt on the balcony. Something similar to that new Ethelwulf, or some of A$AP's shit. Doesn't even really have to be hip-hop, just some dark shit.
