i might be mad but i feel like male lesbian has just entered the dissensus zone. we don't care if you researched in depth Kantian metaphysics but if Joey badass went to your school then yh.Eh, someone will have to link me to some good Brooklyn drill because that thread is too big for me to sort through. I've never listened to Pop Smoke, but I'm intrigued that he came from Brooklyn.
I will say that, when it comes to New York artists making trap or drill records, that's music that resembles southern or midwestern styles of rap. I'm from Brooklyn. Joey Badass went to my high school. I like stuff like him and the Underachievers. Stuff that tries to capture the spirit of classic hip hop. Not nostalgia bullshit that tries to copy the classics, but stuff that tries to do what the classics did while sounding new. I'm into east coast artists making east coast style rap, not copying other regions' styles.
Not dissing BK drill, but I found this clip funny. Danny Brown is another rapper I like. I rock with "Scaring the Hoes Vol. 1"
He said Batman Beyond ahahahahah
I spent some time hitchhiking in europe a decade ago and that danny brown mixtape with 30 and the one about steeling copper pipes was the soundtrack to all of that. sleeping in tents by the side of the road and thumbing at pieges. drinking on benches in little french towns. church bells in the morning, rides with priests and wasted moroccans. where in Brooklyn?Eh, someone will have to link me to some good Brooklyn drill because that thread is too big for me to sort through.

that was the period where I was getting into that kind of indie mainstream hiphop, I remember there was a bit of a revolution in those guys being not only willing to talk about eating pussy but bragging about how good they are at it. the recaliberation of masculinity in general, of which that was an example, was one aspect of it that I liked. it went along with the openness of that period musically, the sudden plasticity of the beats as well, people jumping on all kinds of soundsCan't forget about the Danny Brown song about eating pussy!
I grew up on Prospect Park SW.
