maaan that's crazy, I cant believe I didn't notice that..

 

[Blackace]

Will peep Skeme tonight

And give Kendrick another listen on the way home

 

[Esch]

Trap God is pretty dope as well. lots of fun shit on that.

TRAP FOR THE TRAP GOD

 

[ThanksVision]

Where I live people know more about Kendrick rather than Weeknd.

Kendrick is definitely gaining more popularity, and with the release of GKMC he'll get a lot of deserved recognition. However, I haven't been to a party in the last year that DIDN'T play something off of House of Balloons (reason Abel is so popular--he makes PARTY music). And I know Twitter followers aren't 100% indicative of popularity, but it is something to consider.

Just may be Utah then. Lol. I stay playing Weeknd in the car. Trust.

 

[Esch]

I wouldnt say Weeknd makes much party music at all. Too slow.

Weeknd gets pop buzz off of Drake mostly.

 

[Recon]

I have never been to a party playing The Weeknd. Also, I would never even think to call Abel's music "Party" music.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

The Weeknd is morning after the party music.

 

[iavi]

why the hell would Drake even waste his time getting a diploma? id be too busy fucking hot sluts in my mansion

Can still do that while getting your learn on.

 

[HiResDes]

I don't wanna go off on too much hyperbole tonight, but this Skeme guys...

 

[The Return of]

He be at them orgy parties, I see you fam.

 

[HiiiLife]

This.

 

[PBY]

I don't wanna go off on too much hyperbole tonight, but this Skeme guys...

Don't do this man. It wears off. Good album though and dat Q feature

 

[Esch]

I don't wanna go off on too much hyperbole tonight, but this Skeme guys...

Damn. Vaguely remember hearing about dude but i just peeped that tracklist. Features and production, damn. Just copped it.

Impressions soon to follow etc etc

 

[HiResDes]

Dat Kendrick feature is ill too dude

 

[ThanksVision]

It must be just where I live then (state of VA woo).

Actually, now that I think about it, Abel isn't really played at huge house parties, but more at after-parties/pre-gaming sessions where there are only about a dozen people. I guess I sorta lumped them together.

 

[Macca]

I'm all about listening to my major artist homeboy The Weeknd.

Put that shit on at parties, shit goes wild, everyone starts dancing, doing shots, fuckahater

 

[The Return of]

I recall liking The Statement last year, but that kids with fucking gunz with Q was really dope. I'll give it a go in a few.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

Blackace listen to the new Skeme!

Sample

That song is real good, I still haven't got through GKMC yet or that Alchemist album. Fuck.

 

[Esch]

revise that: chicks love those haus of balloons remixes. That shit you can party to.

Not sure if you're being sarcastic...

 

[Recon]

Skeme is alright. Not really hearing what Des is jizzing about.

 

[Trey]

sorry guys i am gonna laugh at drake finishing high school at age 25, that shits just funny

I'd trade my diploma for his millions straight up. He can have my degrees and eighth grade diploma too.

Good on the brother to cop the diploma though. A lot of dudes would just say, "fuck it."

 

[HiResDes]

Skeme is alright. Not really hearing what Des is jizzing about.

It's not your style, but the album is great if you like west-coast influenced ratchet shit.

 

[Recon]

Yup, I'm old. I don't understand what that means.

 

[Macca]

Copping that Good Kid now, bout to be eatin.

Fuuuuuck, if that Iron Fists was to drop today as well, I think I'd die.

 

[MorisUkunRasik]

I just finished Maad City...god damn I feel amazin'

 

[iavi]

Guys, it's been done; I'm Up has been topped as Trap tape of the year. TRAP GOD.

I'm having a hard time pulling myself away to get my GKMC listen in.

 

[HiResDes]

If Baby Face Killa counts that wins. I like Ace Hood's offerings better as well. Honestly, if I can count this Skeme as trap

1. BFK
2. Alive & Living (Deluxe)

 

[iavi]

Still haven't given Baby Face Killa a spin. I need to, all the praise in got in here.

 

[cacophony]

listening to Maybach Curtains, so smooth

I don't get why you guys dont like Meek

I DJ every weekend and I have heard the Weekend maybe 10 times in the last 2 years...

 

[Blackace]

Yup, I'm old. I don't understand what that means.

 

[iavi]

The Weeknd is fucking music. Hardly party music. It's like saying you're hearing MJ's Lady in My Life at the club.

 

[Cudder]

Maybe I'm wrong, but I just get that one type of feeling listening to it, like it will stand the test of time. Death is Silent kind of gave me that feeling, as did Marcberg, but this is slightly more intense.

I agree. Album is fresh and new and doesn't bore the listener with topics covered before in every other rap song that's out there. It's kinda how Oneirology is. It's just a refreshing listen man, nothing sounds like it lyrically.

 

[PhoenixDark]

I DJ every weekend and I have heard the Weekend maybe 10 times in the last 2 years...

Yup. I've heard people play it a couple times at small house parties but overall I don't hear anyone bumping that shit with more than three people in a room. IE if an orgy ain't popping off no one is listening to Abel with more than one person

 

[Macca]

Here you go.

Ace Bear

 

[PBY]

The Recipe is still far and away the best track on GKMC. So good.

 

[HiResDes]

Sing About Me...

 

[PhoenixDark]

Sing About Me...

soty contender imo...

 

[CRS]

The Recipe but mainly because of the sample.

 

[Blackace]

Here you go.

Ace Bear

Oh snap

Now where to put it

 

[Esch]

Sing About Me...

first part of that beat is some clearly nujabes inspired shit

 

[iavi]

wow at the end of Bitch, Don't Kill my Vibe. Nutty, that's so good.

e: I fucking love the amount of variation on Backstreet Freestyle. K.dot killed.

It's amazing how much better The art of Peer Pressure sounds in sequence, especially after that intro.

 

[overcast]

Is there anyone else waiting for GKMC to come out before listening to it?

 

[LightOfTruth]

Is there anyone else waiting for GKMC to come out before listening to it?

huh?

 

[HiResDes]

Cabin Fever 2 - My Gawd, Fucc Shit is the jam...Best Wiz mixtape since Kush & OJ. Berner really rubbed off on him.

 

[Recon]

huh?

Hes asking if people are not gonna be dirty pirates and buy it and give it their first listen when they purchase it.

 

[Macca]

Up to Backseat Freestyle, god damn Hit Boy, dude is unstoppable. Shit son. Producer of the year by far, fuck Harry Fraud yo.

ASAP would've killed that shit too, but Kendrick went in, that end was nuts.

 

[Trey]

Is there anyone else waiting for GKMC to come out before listening to it?

Only because I don't feel like downloading it. If there was a stream somewhere I'd be listening to it.
