Amazing.

 

[Ray Wonder]

Amazing.

What amazes me is that Nintendo cleared that sample. They have to be seeing some money from it.

 

[overcast]

700 Fill is the most impressive and substantive rap release of 2015 thus far.

agree with this

Really. Have it at home, just gotta put it on my phone.

 

[naw]

that 6 god sample been known

some guy even asked David Wise about it and he said it was dope

This is still the best gif, perhaps save for the super excited white kid dancing while mugging or the adorable dancing kid in the car seat.

Is it that bad? What are expectations for a Tyga and Chris Brown record though.

Breezy sells three times of that alone, X debuted at 151k and sits at like 300+k

Found it:

-One last one. This one is kind of hard to tell, so…
Drake “6 God”
[original sample ]

[after about three seconds] Ah, Drake.

-You know Drake?

Yeah. I know this song. It came up on a playlist I was listening to. Totally accidentally. I was driving, with the music turned up really loud, you know, bouncing down the road, lots of bass. And this came up on the stereo, and I recognized my song immediately.

-What did you think?

Just as in the way, 20 years ago, when I was writing my music, I was taking hints and inspiration from other artists, it’s part of a cycle. So it’s nice to keep the flow going, I think. I’m happy to be a part of it. It puts a big smile on your face, you know? No worries.

-I mean, Drake is one of the biggest rappers out right now. He makes an awful lot of money.

Yes, I know. Quite talented.

-So if you were to say something to Drake, or the producer of this song, you’d say…

I’d say “thanks.” I’d say “Good job.” Absolutely. It’s great.

Gone

Mega Ran and Sammus bring us their first collaboration of the year for their Rappers with Arm Cannons Tour. On my first listen I didn't like this track, but on my second listen I appreciated it. The song is tale of emcees experiences in colleges and how it has affected their lives. The beat is decent enough and the duo's rhymes do their job in presenting the story. The flow from both of them could be a bit better; Sammus's in particular starts off a bit weird. All around it's an ok track.

5.5/10

Look Around

Australian rapper Netti drops the visuals for her track "Look Around" which was released a little earlier this year. The song I haven't listened to since I initially downloaded it. Netti's flow on this track is one of the best of any track she's ever done and the production is pretty dope. The video itself is decently shot. There is some uneven lighting and dim spots here and there, but it's serviceable for the video. There could be more actions to differentiate it however. Overall, this is a pretty neat package.

7.5/10

 

[silentcapybara]

so dope, great catch

 

[Bubbavelli]

Grand Theft Auto 3's rap station is pretty underrated . Lord Sear and Stretch Armstrong as the dj's were just the icing on the cake

Well, people wanted Mega Man to come back, so.....

Classic track. Pumped that one a few months ago when we had a nostalgia trip at a friend's party, the whole crew was crooning the hook, haha.

That was an amazing station. I loved the Pretty Ugly and Royce track on there :lol

Crazy how small those stations were compared to more recent GTA's.

 

[MoodyFog]

I knew it would be "Rising to the top" before clicking.
Classic.

 

[codhand]

what's up with dame dash's comfort dog? lmao, he brought it all the way from LA?

smoke dza standing awkwardly in the background?

this interview is an instant classic.

 

[Nibel]

That interview is so full of cringe

It's fantastic

 

[Aerogamer]

Really bumping this Jack U and 2 Chaniz joint: Febreze, it bumps in the winds, lyrics are lol as expected, but I like the beat

GTA soundtracks are so great
GTA IV "the classics" i think it was called was a great station

also

Bobby Shmurda says his Uncle is a liar and needs 50 Cent to manage him

lol

Spoiler

caught a charge about a week ago

 

[Fjordson]

Yeah, they are. I loved Radio Los Santos with Julio G in San Andreas. "The original home of the driveby!"

West Coast Classics in V hosted by DJ Pooh was also dope.

edit: this Dame interview is fucking ridiculous. Dude is all over the place.

the first four seconds of this video are the loop they'd use whenever they transitioned songs and it's burned into my memory forever lol

GTA 6 better be in Chicago

I want my DJ Rashad tribute station.

Chicago or Detroit would be cool
or maybe Seattle or another border city

 

[spindashing]

lmao

Haha, that's great. And Premier as the DJ, damn. They always make good choices for the hosts.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Chicago or Detroit would be cool

All would be great choices but I think they'll do Miami and throw in Cuba and Orlando and the other surrounding areas of Florida.

 

[injurai]

Yeah Detroit too. My dream GTA would actually be a Glasgow/London game. But that will never happen.

All would be great choices but I think they'll do Miami and throw in Cuba and Orlando and the other surrounding areas of Florida.

Noooooo, I really hope they don't take the series back to Florida.

It's only right.

 

[injurai]

what is that? Houston?

 

[Rastafarian42]

It's only right.

lol exactly how it's pronounced out here by some folks.

 

[RBK]

what is that? Houston?

Yeah.

I think Miami is the safest bet right about now but I want a new city(not London).

Wouldn't mind ATL or Chicago, but always going to go with the hometown choice.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Noooooo, I really hope they don't take the series back to Florida.

I dunno miami beach, swamplands, running coke from cuba to miami, stand your ground laws, haitian gangs there's a ton of stuff R* can satirize.

 

[Bubbavelli]

Yeah Detroit too. My dream GTA would actually be a Glasgow/London game

The world needs a proper Getaway game. The first one was pretty good albeit a bit rough around the edges and the secondd was just flat-out bad.

 

[Tokubetsu]

"Don't worry man I got your money. I just gotta do something real quick! You can come with me."

*sponge bob a few hours later*

 

[Fjordson]

I dunno miami beach, swamplands, running coke from cuba to miami, stand your ground laws, haitian gangs there's a ton of stuff R* can satirize.

Yeah, I could see that. Complete the PS2 remakes with a new Vice City. Then they'd probably go to something new for VII.

 

[Esch]

you'd think Spitta would talk to Smoke about the dangers of linking up with dame but

 

[Rastafarian42]

Yeah, I could see that. Complete the PS2 remakes with a new Vice City. Then they'd probably go to something new for VII.

It only makes sense R* goes for the most iconic cities in the USA they've done NYC and LA now Miami is left.

 

[Fjordson]

It only makes sense R* goes for the most iconic cities in the USA they've done NYC and LA now Miami is left.

And now that they're capable of extending beyond just the city that extra stuff would be pretty dope. Swamplands, Cuba/Miami stuff, etc.

[IrishNinja]

Luda track was nice

Action Bronson lets loose on Highly Questionable (ESPN)

Kanye is the greatest

It's coming
