oh fuck yeah

really though, The Diplomats is an amazing name for any outfit, especially a hip hop one, ESPECIALLY considering what kind of music they made

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

At risk of sounding like a stan, Wu-Tang Clan is a dope group name.

yeah probably. also would throw in n64, new jet city (i still bump songs on this even though it's forgotten by many already), patriarch and trap lord for stuff so far.

edit: Trunk Drank is an incredible rap name. I hope he hits it big.

 

[toastyToast]

When Game came out, all I could think about when his name was mentioned was Triple Hs intro

Pretty much been dropped

He will still use in name drops maybe

 

[mooooose]

trap lord has no right being as good as it is. it may end up on my top 5.

saab stories, even tho its only an ep, is way underrated.

 

[Discotheque]

oh lord forgive me. yeezus is a definite too. my bad.

 

[Blackace]

trap lord has no right being as good as it is. it may end up on my top 5.

It has 2 epic songs
And rest range from so-so to make it stop

dont worry theyre running gnauze jones in the southeast asian cover of Vibe

i think everyone expected it to be horrible so anything is a success, but its just a good album to smoke and leave on in the background

 

[Discotheque]

yeah i was expecting a complete piece of shit after ghetto symphony and a few other features from ferg.

it was a good album though. better than the asap rocky album.

 

[Blackace]

i think everyone expected it to be horrible so anything is a success, but its just a good album to smoke and leave on in the background

Well it was a pleasant surprise and everything but it really ain't top 5 Imo

 

[Net_Wrecker]

saab stories, even tho its only an ep, is way underrated.

My issue is that the best track wasn't on there and leaked after it came out: Heel Toe. The EP isn't bad, but it's a little forgettable.

Hit you with the dropkick, Marty Jannetty might be the best hook ever though. Not really but really.

 

[Esch]

Yo, speaking of bad names, it cracks me up when people call K Dot by his legal name.

If my last name was Duckworth and I was trying to rap i would get that shit changed immediately

 

[IrishNinja]

Just don't leave comments to 6 month old twitter posts of hers.

aww shit

Spoiler

every now & then i gotta throw shade like i wonder if m'man will be the bigger dude here, but we both know it won't slide, hahaha

[HiiiLife]

Ghostface Killah is probably my favorite name for a rapper.

Worst is Wine-O.

 

[mooooose]

nah, it has bronson in full form, making some good songs with good hooks and trying out different flows.

no time, the rockers, and strictly 4 my jeeps are all great songs for bronson in terms of being catchy singles or something

alligators is pretty epic and has him trying different flows

the last song is pretty dope, so is the opener

its a good ep

hell yeah, man. youre a fellow wrasslin fan, you already. its a great hook and the album has those. strictly 4 my jeeps didnt really grab me at first but it's one of his best songs.

 

[Discotheque]

lmao at duckworth. i think he should have just embraced it but it would have killed his momentum.

 

[IrishNinja]

the hook on Celebration...think i found CRS' favorite bit

 

[Macca]

I like The Rockers, and Alligators. The rest feels like middle tier Bronson. *shrug*

I wanted to like it a lot. Bronson + Fraud should = er mah gerd. Just wasn't too impressed. Until Heel Toe which sounds like straight Sega Genesis swag.

Spoiler

Yes, that's a good thing

 

[toastyToast]

I was not expecting his name to actually be Herbert :lol

 

[MuddyDonut]

Bird on a Wire was too good. It set expectations way to high.

Who was hating on Red 2 Go? Shit is so wavy.

[Net_Wrecker]

Dip and Kush Coma are WAAAAAAAY better in sequence with the rest of the tracks.

Clean Up is still my favorite track. The beat + calm Danny is too good.

 

[CRS]

If it's anything like the first track, wow. In for a treat.

the hook on Celebration...think i found CRS' favorite bit

lmao at the features on that track. new bone thugs

smh

You deserve to die and I hope you burn in hell.

 

[jakefromstatefarm]

If it's anything like the first track, wow. In for a treat.

Will listen just because of the blurb.

"The Beauty In All is about the flaws & mistakes that give life its character and worth - how even ignorance can give light to knowledge. For me, not knowing how to do something & still trying is a process that helped my production style evolve. If everything we are is out in perfect tutorials, we might never deviate from the teacher. This record is dedicated to imperfection and the sense of pride & accomplishment we get from our struggles. Hopefully, you listen to this record, reflect on the ups & downs of life, and see the beauty in all."

About "Tangible Dream" (The Mixtape)
I live in a gentrified part of Brooklyn, I eat out several times a week, I travel the world sampling the best that cities across the globe have to offer. Do I live in a penthouse loft? Am I dinning in five stars restaurants? Can you only find me in the most exclusive areas? Do I own a jet? The answer to all the above is most certainly no. I’m just a regular man from Prince George’s county, Maryland that figured shit out.

I discovered that I can make a career in an arena dominated by artists that sell false dreams. I realized that although the masses may not know of my body of work, it doesn’t take the whole world to have the world I want. Tangible Dream is a mix-tape dedicated to the deconstruction of our traditional ideas of success & shedding light on the possibility of a sustainable rap life.

These rhymes were written in economy class seats, these beats were produced on long bus trips & these songs were recorded in airbnb apartments. All I want to do is make music for a living so that I can live to make music. The only dreams I’m interested in are the ones I can grasp. It just so happens that anything you want bad enough can be obtained. Perhaps the world may never know of my accomplishments but accomplishments they are nonetheless.

 

[iavi]

They're serious with the price on this shit aren't they?

http://shop.theweeknd.com/

I'd buy merch. I'm not fucking with any 40 dollar tees though.

 

[CRS]

^ I don't know how involved Abel is with his merch but it's been ridiculous from the get-go. The vinyl fiasco being stupid but because fans will buy anything with a fucking XO on it, they mark up the price like they're struggling with money. Assholes.

This is some prime smoking music to chill to. I really want Curren$y over these beats.

I'm loving the layering on these beats. Sooo good.

Fashionably Late. Man, I wish there was a Steely Dan-esque sax solo in this track.

 

[iavi]

It's some bullshit. I don't buy merch for many artists, but Abel's one of those dudes I could support in that way.

 

[overcast]

Who was hating on Red 2 Go? Shit is so wavy.

Yup. "Colder than my cereal". Listened to Old quite a bit at school today.

Sat and talked to this chick for 4 straight hours later in the night brehs. Good day.

 

[HiiiLife]

Detroit nigga but I'm smoking on L.A.

Red 2 Go is dope. Gaf Hop wylin for that one.

 

[Cudder]

I thought Dope Song would be the hypest song on the album, but Smoking and Drinking. WHEW

 

[toastyToast]

XXX equaled. Man, I had my doubts but Danny Brown brought it with this album. Just, damn

Does Fool's Gold do digipacks on all their shit? I don't trust Amazon's cheap shipping with a jewel case

 

[IrishNinja]

damn, still fucking with kams' recommendations a minute ago...forgot how dope I Got Next is, top 3 KRS album for me easily

 

[overcast]

Does Fool's Gold do digipacks on all their shit? I don't trust Amazon's cheap shipping with a jewel case

Not sure. I'm just going to go to Best Buy to grab it.. Prefer it that way.

Will get the vinyl in 2014 smh. Better be a good ass deluxe version.
