Boys behave.

Hang on I have to yell at Third, it's infinitely more satisfying.

You've missed the point and constantly relating things to you and how it reaches you. You're worthless in this equation same way I am. You have to think of things in relation to the transmission and it's not transmitting from a world where LTJ Bukem or Eno matters. The ambience isn't real, its...

That album was fucking shit

WE DON'T HAVE TESCO.

Anyway the problem is there is no one thing that's new that can instantaneously displace this; it's a factionous time rn in rap and a lot of that is kept down unless it's absorbed into this 'flattening'. So "The Hip New Thing" both doesn't help the thread nor does it wipe this away because this...

TBF Barti's speaking as the Zeppelin enthusiast in this metaphor. He's out here like "No I'm not going to listen to The Who, they don't have the range". Or more accurately, he's already heard Rakim, why go back and acknowledge Spoonie Gee? The problem I have is with Third's establishing that...

Judging it off Migos and Future, people who've been established stars for almost a decade now, is a great way to determine who's trying to speak to a greater change in rap. I agree. Ice Cube in 1995 was totally not defanged and toothless. Tupac hadn't become a poster for college domiciles...

I remember seeing some folks resentful about the careers shifting into a lot of the DMZ goers music slowly getting simply absorbed by house and techno "proper" (maybe not here but elsewhere) and it was a bizarre thing to watch. The sort of anger at the notion that the experimentation and the...

I don't like this rule.

I don't like it tbh.

The producers are perhaps the least important contributors to the scene frankly. This is the major difference between grime and drill. Grime is (and typically has always been) mostly dependant on great producers and the MCs to fill a role. It's absolutely the inverse in Drill which is why...

m8 they've been literally banning the few crews who aren't killing each other from making music, I think dissensus is the least of these lads worries.

Barty, did you hear So Solid try to do road rap? <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/u3TPKb8hLIs" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe> They sadly remixed it into a grime version to catch up to the grime revival nonsense but...

Jess owns, lmao

Devlin also looks like he's rotting away internally all the time. There's nothing to it really, Devlin is just untalented and gets by because people are desperate to acknowledge White Talent in a way that's Overwhelmingly Logistical and Compensatory when it should be about a force of...

How can an album with no good songs outdo 36 Chambers?

It doesn't help matters that a rich white backpacker used them as a vehicle for credibility. At the end of the day though I don't even like Mobb Deep outside of certain songs and I think The Infamous is already a cartoon of the Juice Crew Revivalist Axis which is Biggie/Wu-Tang/Nas. They're...
