Are they sampling Carlos Santana?

Meth,Deck,Ghost and RZA are on it. Their verse are good I just dont like the hook. The beat isn't really grimy like a Wu beat should.

Agreed. I almost like the beat....but it's too clean? If they're going to use those instrumentals they should reach for something a bit grimier or at least more raw and energetic. It just doesn't really click for me.

theyre trying to go for that live show / tour money with this record.

 

[The Artful Dodger]

It frustrates me when they release something like that when they had this on the Man with The Iron Fists soundtrack:

The Wu-Tang Clan Ft. Kool G Rap - "Rivers of Blood"

theyre trying to go for that live show / tour money with this record.

See that doesn't bother me so much but there are better ways to get at that, and like capture at least some of the energy that they should be able to put up. This is like a song they perform on stage while they catch their breath after hitting another song really hard.

 

[IrishNinja]

gotta catch that Daily Show

The Blueprint
Doggystyle
The Chronic
Ridin Dirty

this here is one bangin ass BBQ

I need specific impressions, I'm at work. How is the beat, who is on it, etc.

how do you feel about production and hooks from the early to mid aughts

Might need to ask another question breh. I'm a Nas stan.

 

[thabiz]

 

[spindashing]

New Wu-Tang Clan singe "Ron O'Neal"

Yeah, they performed this on The Daily Show. Definitely not feeling the hook but the verses are pretty good. Ugh I just want some grimey shit... Glad they at least did Triumph last night lol

i hear you man - the gaming side equivalent of SHMUP fans who have to deal with the genre capping around PS2 level of assets. i know these struggles.

 

[90TilInfinity]

I feel like there's an ominous Wu beat somewhere in there, just sounds like there are too many layers for no reason.


And good looks thabiz. Liking that little tape.

 

[HiResDes]

I can't believe how good Stat Quo's from earlier this year is. Speaking of BBQ albums this shit will you cooking like an Iron Chef

 

[Rastafarian42]

Dom Kennedy's Get Home Safely is a good BBQ album.

 

[thabiz]

new dilated is dope. long overdue

Female rappers now hold the title for the two longest-running No. 1s on Hot Rap Songs in the chart’s 25-year history. Iggy Azalea's "Fancy," featuring Charli XCX, now has the second-most weeks at No. 1 ever (16). Azalea was previously tied at 15 weeks with Drake's "Best I Ever Had" (2009), Macklemore & Ryan Lewis' "Thrift Shop" featuring Wanz (2013), and Pitbull's "Timber" featuring Kesha (2014).


lol @ someone who jacked mustard's sound having a bigger hit than he ever has

 

[Detox]

Hold up that song is selling more than thrift shop? Tip is eating.

When I heard Mustard didn't produce that I was stunned lol. The irony, heh.

Sooo when will Nicki diss Iggy.

 

[thabiz]

Sooo when will Nicki diss Iggy.

didnt she already do this

 

[IrishNinja]

Sooo when will Kim diss Iggy.

fixed - has Nicki actually gone at anyone yet?
*edit wait i think biz is right nevermind

 

[Oldschoolgamer]

Action Bronson on Ebro. Yo this shit is hilarious off the jump.

This dude Bronson is the funniest.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Just the thing at the awards right? I assume PD meant a diss track.

Pause

I can't remember what other interview with Dame kept saying pause in, but it was just ridiculous. Shit wasn't even making sense

 

[big ander]

Nicki doesn't need to diss Iggy, Iggy and "Fancy" are to today as Snow and "Informer" are to 1992. she'll go the fuck back to Australia and have a decently successful career and nobody outside that godforsaken island will have to hear her again

 

[DominoKid]

Nicki can't really talk shit about Iggy though. Yeah she more talented but she does absolutely nothing w/ it.

 

[MadSkillzBahamut]

What do you guys think the best recent trap album/mixtapes are? I'm getting into it now and I just wanna hear the best shit

@PhoenixDark it was produced by Mustard he laid out the original beat for another song without CharliXCX and they just jacked it and didn't credit him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj3bSe_IRfA

this dude, lmao

 

[silentcapybara]

not trying to start the kanye cycle, but yeezus holds up incredibly well. may even be my favorite ye album.

about to dive into these new armand hammer and underachievers albums.

Interview is 100% hilarious.

Bronson is probably the most entertaining person in the industry, 2nd only to NWO Heel Kanye.

 

[RP912]

Yeezus is one of those albums that works well as background noise when you are doing something.

 

[cb1115]

another MBDTF head, eh

man even big ghostface calls that one a classic...just don't get it

can literally put on that album whenever I want and enjoy the hell out of it every time. the production is just so immaculate.

I like Yeezus. it's just that when I compare it to the rest of his discography...it doesn't really hold up for me.

 

[IrishNinja]

immaculate like really busy 90's x-men wallpaper montages immaculate i take it

 

[cb1115]

well that X-Men wallpaper sounds great so yeah

 

[PhoenixDark]

No lie, I can imagine Bronson killing a Mustard beat. Give him a nice catchy beat and a hook and his image and hilarious bars could fuck around and make a song that charts.

 

[cb1115]

Action Bronson x DJ Mustard: Mustard on Beets EP should be a thing
