Shit looks like the slave 2 step. This is the lost scene in Gangs of New York where boys celebrated the emancipation proclamation.

Gaf doesn't have that many bad people breh
Supreme USED to be dope as fuck. Almost all their shit was cool Ralph Lauren/Nautica flips of stuff that was well out of season, and their t-shirt designs had more effort and were by a bunch of designers who are now at other brands.
They also were cooler back when streetwear wasn't super poppin with teenagers. Their designs were very NYC and they either worked with NYC artists or repped NY. They were also the first streetwear brand to do big collaborations with celebrities and rappers, like Kate Moss, Mike Tyon, Rae, and Dipset. Those tees are way too hype now, even though they're cool, but the meaning was that a small brand could make it and remain small.
But now they just got bigger and the internet diluted their worth.
Classic Supreme is any streetwear head's favorite brand, and I'm pretty sure almost any good brand is try to recreate that.
edit - Some stuff used to be cheaper too, especially their tees.
Here's an example of cool box logos:

Things like The Sopranos box logo were dope as fuck, they did that as the show was just starting to gain momentum. They were always on things like that, which made them cool. It's harder to appreciate design flips like that now because everyone has photoshop and tumblr and there is just a lot more people making things.

I'm really feeling Vibes and I generally don't like Theopholis London like that. Hmm might go revisit some of his stuff.
Yeah. I only recently noticed that the voice that says "You are now listening to Run the Jewels... 2" goes into gibberish mode right after that until it fades out. Lots of little touches like that.

I decided Oh My Darling Don't Cry is the best song on that album.
It's also probably in my top 3 of the year.

Whoa.
Gibbs performing a new song off Eastside Slim. Fucking amazing. The melody is really familiar.
Migos are making that guap. Perform 2-4 times a week, earning 40k per show. Rich Nigga Timeline coming out in 8 hours.
T-Pain ft. Lil Wayne - Let Me Through

Awesome. Maybe Eastside Slim will still drop this year
but it probably won't.
T-Wayne coming 6 years later...
Wow, this is dope.[url="http://blvcsvnd.bandcamp.com/album/relationship"'][/url]
First Impressions - T.I. - Paperwork
It's.. much better and consistent than I expected? Decent project IMO, pretty analogous to Cadillactica: strong opening, good bangers/well produced songs pepperred throughout but the songs for the chicks tend to be the most irratable, and it begins to slow up about 2/3 of the way through in terms of quality. Don't expect to go into it finding many more great songs that aren't the singles though.
I feel like if this album had some hype behind it I might say it's a good project but it just sort of.. exists. Tip doesn't really bring anything new to the table, his tribute to Doe B was kind of weird, and overall it just feels like he threw it out to stay relevant; something that is worrying especially considering he says he's already got his next 2.5 albums ready to throw out, marketing and everything, when he feels he's getting cold again. You get that calculated, just business feeling listening. Maybe I've been spoiled by concept albums, but yeah. Enjoyed it more than Seen It All though, which I didn't expect.

I feel like Kendrick has yet to really make a misstep, musically at least. I've enjoyed just about everything he's put out so far. There is always a chance his next album is Lasers 2.0, but I feel like having an actual crew around him will help keep him grounded. He's not saying any kinds of ridiculous shit in interviews, either.
i (love myself) is definitely a departure from anything he's done to date, but that's fine by me. I get so bored when musicians run out the same shit as their big successes. And there is nothing wrong with an occasional positive vibe song. Even NWA and ODB had one.
