Is Drake releasing his album this year too?
I think he will in the fall. Though that could just be me reading too many hype posts on Kanyetothe.
I'll also say Pilot Talk 3 and doesn't Alchemist have something coming up?
PT3 is April 4 and that Alchemist album was leaked on some retailer iirc. May it was I think, if actually legit.

I can understand why his work would be unappealing to people but its hard to deny that he always puts a lot of effort in his music and has been doing it for over 15 years now.
The ones mentioned above and NAS, Tech N9ne and Pusha T. Also very excited for some other strange music projects (Ces Cru, Murs, Mayday) but that just might be me in this thread lol.
Jay Electronica and Jay Rock too, if they ever release their albums that is.

yeaaaah i should start downloading that today.
New James Blake is monumental for me. Same goes for Frank Ocean. I don't really have tabs on what's coming out this year tho...been in too deep in the soundcloud/bandcamp universe to keep up.
Really wish I could play that, but my laptop is garbo.
It is fantastic. Lost my whole day to it.
That's too bad. I don't think he's the type of rapper to ever reach high levels of critical acclaim. I don't think he needs it though.
I agree. Don't see what he can do about that though.
He's saying things like his fans opinions are the only ones that matter but he's mentioned it a few times. Makes it seem like it did hit him hard.

Bronson doesnt seem like the type to care about reviews.

Frank has been doing a lot of collaborations (like with Beyonce, and soon Chance The Rapper) silently since his first album released. He dropped a track from his new album last fall, so it should be coming out sometime this year.
He should just be happy with his sales.
Hint: They all care about reviews (and sales).

that's wack. great artists don't care about reviews. I don't like seeing danny brown and bronson crying about fantano and shit.
same goes for kanye and grammys, that's not cool.

Already projected to have 40k sales.
I don't really care about music sales. It's mildly interesting as a metric for an artist's popularity, but it's really nothing. It's not like videogames where bad sales can destroy a publisher, or a studio, or a series u like. It might suck in the moment for the particular artists but in this day and age they can continue making music as long as they'd like. Trinidad got dropped by his label and went on to drop one of the best mixtapes of the year so far.
Well if an album (by a person on a major label) underperforms that can mean an artist is put under strict guidance on what goes on an album. May lead to less personal control. Because the artist may not know how to sell a record, but of course the labels sure do!
I can see why many care about reviews. They don't read forums, they see tweets and reviews. All of those fans can love em, but it seems like more underground/low key musicians feel they need the critical adoration too.
Reviews may lead to slightly higher sales too.
Though I think reviews are far less important in music than in games/movies as far as leading to more commercial success. That's a whole nother convo.

dame is a douche and kanye is delusional (and vice versa)....... but not for nothing I think they can make the karmaloop thing work if they both stay in their lane of designing (kanye) and Marketing (dame)
We got to see who they hire to run the day to day operations (hopefully somebody qualified). Operations isn't either of their strengths. But if they can hire somebody to keep the puters, putin and the shippers, shipping (and not fuck over their vendors) I think they can make it work.
when you look into it Karmaloop was a successful business that failed because the owners tried and failed to expand into other ventures to quickly and that affected the companies overall bottom line which put them into debt.
Keep in mind all of that requires both men to have some perspective on their business sense and admitting their weaknesses so its far from a sure thing.

Honestly, if it was pay per view, I would probably still watch this happen. That would be amazing.
