Close to double that last year. Not sure how the raw number matters either really. Listening to more shit albums by shit artists will only inflate that number. I've also listened to most of the albums other people are listing here (Pinata, Cilvia Demo, etc.).

Because you critique a year and call it shit when you only listen to 15 albums a year. It's silly as hell to me, but I was just teasing you for the most part because I'm aware of you having problems on listening to music when you are doing other things like studying

man i got kinda excited by this list, but then there's wayne at the end, just kinda bringing things down
Hmmm....so far I got:
Isaiah Rashad - Cilvia Demo at number one.
Migos - No Label 2 at a distant second....not really sure where'd I go from there. Could be spacing on something, but not much comes to mind.
There's some other decent to good stuff so far like Pinata, Honest, MKL, Beach House EP and a handful of tapes, but I don't think I'd put them on my personal list of favorites.
There's plenty good tracks put out so far this year been not really a single project that I love from start to finish yet. Last summer Yeezus, Trap Lord
were up there for me. Had the full albums on repeat all summer instead of just cherry picking mixtape fodder. Still waiting on something like that this year.

Was that PeeWee Long way tape an official one? Been meaning to get to that
Pretty much how I feel.
F&L2 was far better than Lasers though. I forget the track title but the last track on the album was amazing. The one set in the future.
I just wish production would improve on his work.

It will be. If Juicy J exec produces, make sure it's basically "Stay Trippy" PT II but harder it'll be great. Thats the thing with the mafia though, almost all of them have put out solid solo shit before. That hasn't really changed, they'll probably keep making solid music until the grave.

Don't get me wrong his album could be straight ass and booty sweat but what he's been saying in interviews lately makes me believe he wants to leave something for his legacy. He's starting to notice the other good rappers out there are making good projects and with the resources and skills he has he can too. Plus I like the songs released so far. Maybe I'm being a little too optimistic I haven't fucked with Wayne since 04 I just would like a good send off before he retires
for two years and comes back
The year started off great, but we're in a summer drought. the hip.hop industry seemingly adopted the video game industry time table and shit is feeling dry.
at least for me. Nothing has been jumping out and I've had weird music listening habits lately. mostly just on a podcast kick at the moment and not really listening to too much consistently.
Yep shit is dumb as hell. Not dropping shit when dudes are trying to go out during the summer? Like I say every year summer is the perfect time to drop a standout indie debut or something

There's usually a big mixtape during the summer ala Acid Rap last year but nothing's turned up yet.

Des, this Grenier Meets Archie Pelago album is beautiful. Never got a chance to say that earlier.

I feel like ATL is more united from my limited exposure on the music side of things. Migos, Thug, Quan, and others seem to work together somewhat often.

IDK this also has me like WTF?
I know of him mostly being wilson chandler weed carrier..
The way some of the ATL cats have discussed it in the past it seems like there is some sort of big complex with many studios where most of the big name producers and up coming ones share so all the artists mingle among each other.
Bring back D&D studios

I hear Jonah Hill is a huge J Cole fan
Yeah, it seems sort of alien to everyone outside, but when I found out that Future was around in the Dungeon Family days and sat through some Outkast album recording sessions, it really opened my eyes.
Every time I see an interview with a new age ATL artist they're always talking about how they've been moving in the ATL for a minute and everyone knows who they are already, and I believe it.
I don't know if I should be embarrassed I can't name 5 artists from the GTA outside of Maestro/Kardinal/Drake.
DETAILS NOW BRUH

such poor rapping.

The other day I was listening to a Bones song, I think from his upcoming tape, either way I was really fucking with it. A lot better than what I heard from him last year

Bronson seems to be one of the only NY acts i get into lately, which is weird but it's okay too. they got decades of classics, it's okay to take a decade off like this i guess
i love how little effort it takes to look legit on this kinda thing
i mean, after those weird wedding details, where's dude's mindset right now? i'm expecting something pretty bitter/interesting and this looked like only half that

Flex ethering Dame

Spitta didn't get paid for either of the Pilot Talk albums, damn. Dame is trying to make a lane in that anti-white movement of rap. Not gonna work.

It's fuckery but this makes me respect Spitta more. He never talked about, rapped about it and somehow pulled through it. There are rappers that have whole careers based on bullshit way lesser than this.
dame foul as hell.

Has anyone here seen pusha t live? Not sure what to expect
yeah, basically
This is why I don't fuck with dudes on The Coli stanning Dame just because of how things fell apart with Jay and the Roc. If you think Dame Dash is some type of innocent, pro-black bastion of ownership you're a fucking idiot. Guarantee you if Jay and Dame hadn't 'made up' he'd be making slick comments on his ass too these past couple weeks.
Free da guy Ski.
Spitta is one of the most genuine dudes in the industry. He lets his music speak for him.
RE: Dame
I wonder if Ye and Cam and stuff are just reluctant to air shit out because of the opportunities afforded to him. Suffice to say, people really have divergent opinions about Dame and the good/bad things he's done. I pretty much look at it like there were bad decisions on both sides and it's water under the bridge now.

EDIT: I really hope Dame responds and they argue it out on air.
