How much did y'all hate that new Cudi from the other day?
I totally like it.
twitter rumor is that Kanye's laptop got stolen in Paris.
Love the cover. Not too big on the name, but it makes sense.
Lmao. Sounds like a KTT rumor started for false hope.twitter rumor is that Kanye's laptop got stolen in Paris.
pretend you know nothing of the original and tupac
Quik also said Kendrick samples this on the album. whew. Quik seems like the perfect producer for Kendrick's style.

Me neither. FWIW all signs point towards the album being done. I know Kanye doesn't really "finish" his albums (and I think a leak might motivate him to change stuff deliberately in the final releases like he's done for the last 3 releases), but it isn't that early in the process either.I'd really not like to hear the album in this way.

Regardless, I hope shit works out.
Wonder if he should preemptively drop it if that was the case.

also what if this changes up the whole album as a result? wouldn't be the first time

I'm sure the computer and files are all encrypted and locked up nicely. Sealed by heavenly light cast down by Steve Jobs himself.
It's not like Apple's security has ever let down celebrities, right?

For people who were around then, why did Biggie become so famous, the King of New York after dropping just one album? Why wasn't say Nas bigger after Illmatic?
Biggie will always be the greatest rapper of all time.
Before Young Thug's time. The crown has been passed.which time thought?

And I didn't mock Ye in that thread, I mocked that dude I quoted; I'm a critical supporter of Donda's son
Biggie was known in some of NY before the album dropped. Party And Bullshit was a local hit in Brooklyn and the Flava In Ya Ear remix introduced him to many people. Most of the harder tracks were recorded first and it took Diddy awhile to convince him to do the singles. At the time Bad Boy was running shit in NY and Diddy knew all they needed was a hot single.For people who were around then, why did Biggie become so famous, the King of New York after dropping just one album?

Juicy was a huge hit, rap wise and mainstream wise. The single included Unbelievable for the streets. Then Big Poppa came out which was huge too; once again the single included another street track, Warning. So he had all bases covered before the album dropped, he had the charisma, the right label, and the right sound.
Whereas Illmatic bombed earlier that year. It made an impact in terms of critical acclaim, receiving five mics in The Source (iirc Ready To Die got 4 mics). It was also perhaps the first rap album with a super team or producers. Every hot NY producer was on it, and that influenced Ready To Die and other albums. But the album didn't have any mainstream singles and was heavily bootlegged; I've heard stories of nearly a million bootleg copies being circulated. Plus if you were a rap stan you had heard half the album before it came out.
Final thing: Nas wasn't nearly as charismatic as Biggie and the song content wasn't mainstream. He was and still is quite reserved.
