I cut him some slack cause it's probably weird laying down some good verses when most of your stuff is bouncy dance hip-hop, but yeah dude's writing feels super limited. Still a lot of fun though.

Denzel has a "major label debut" coming out with "Taboo" that is scheduled for this year.
I don't know how this 13 Days Later thing ties into that, but it may just be a series of promo singles to keep him on peoples' minds?

Damn....
My hope for this album hsd definitely dropped considering the negative reception it has received.
There was a good making of article in DJ Booth on the Goldlink album. http://djbooth.net/news/entry/2017-03-27-goldlink-at-what-cost-interview

Where do you think hip-hop goes from here?
Not just from XO Tour Llif3, but also from the sound created by trap and the fusion genres it's spawned. Music blogs and even Des here have mentioned how emo-rap is the next great frontier for trap music, with Lil Peep and even the occasional Uzi song being the premier faces of it. So, after emo-rap, where does it go?
Is Thug's country song an indicator for the future? Or are we headed to a more experimental electronic future like with that mythical Vince x SOPHIE track?
Just thought I'd pick all your minds instead of reposting XO lyrics.

This video is dope. Love the kangaroos.
Gucci on My is the best song on the tape tho.
EDIT: Mura Masa - All Around The World ft. Desiigner video
Some decent GIF material in these two videos.
I know we all joked about meme rap and stuff a while back, but lyrically, with stuff like Twitter and IG driving promotion and word of mouth for music, I'm convinced at least the short term future of hip-hop is just memorable quotes. Stay Schemin', Back 2 Back, Mask Off (although this is more just a good hook), etc. there are many examples of songs that set fire to the world because of lines memorable for one reason or another.
Flow and melody-wise, it's hard to see it being pushed any further without becoming straight up R&B or pop. Thug and Fetty Wap are pretty much at that line. Hip-hop is still so young, IMO we're only just getting to a point where you can have both the more melodic and lyrical stuff coexist, so I don't know if we'll see a pendulum swing again as much as we'll just see things be able to stably coexist. Ditto for emo content, which basically is more pop stylings, and Drake has been doing in the mainstream for nearly a decade so it's hard to call that new when it's a good chunk of the entire history of rap already.
Production, on the other hand, will have styles come and go, I see it being a bit more cyclical in this regard. I have no idea what the next production wave is. Electronic stuff will come and go. Way too much of an energy clash for EDM, but for other electronic genres I think there's already overlap happening, even before Yeezus. TBH I think in the at some point or another in the future we're in for more live guitar-infused and rock-inspired wave. Out kids will be listening to Party Like A Rockstar type shit.
I shit on Gucci On My when it came out but it's grown on me. Mike WiLL and 21 Savage did work on that track. If it didn't have YG on it I'd listen to it more often.
and u wrong it's either YuGo or Emotions Unlocked
