Yo imagine if you had an emergency and needed to get in that hospital and you're stuck in traffic cause people are blasting DMX and barking at you

Why does everyone compare TDE and Dreamville? Cole founded Dreamville and is CEO next to IB, but Kenny didn't found TDE. TDE is run by Punch and Top, while Kenny is their leading artist. Dreamville should be compared more to something like OVO, Shady, or G.O.O.D. Music (collectives that are owned and operated by artists). Whereas TDE is the spawn of something very new, with the essence of Rockafeller, Def Jam or Death Row but with a more independent feel and having developed most of its artists from the infancy of their careers (minus Jay Rock) whereas the aformentioned labels picked up some of their most notable acts later in their careers. Let's compare Dreamville to whatever label Kendrick starts whenever that happens (it won't while he's in his prime) because the root of the comparison is Kendrick versus Cole.

9. Senorita - Vince Staples
Vince has better taste than you. He took one random a--- line from a random a--- future song and made it one of the best hooks of the year. Not only did he realize the brilliance of the line itself in terms of its intensity and sense of rhythm (the way it comes in on "Covered N Money" is fantastic), he knew it fit the premise of his song perfectly ("nine millimeter my brother's my keeper, was servin' that ether before I did features"). "f--- ya dead homies, run ya bread homie/got some lead for me, I'm on Artesia" is one of the coldest openers in recent memory. The first verse throws you in the middle of the violence and bravado of a day in the life of Vince Staples, while the second verse is more introspective, and begs the central question "what means the world to you?" Or, more to the point: "what would you murder for?" Survival? Pride? Sport? Vince may not partake himself, but that only allows him to have a crystal clear take on the situation at hand.

Vince honestly takes everything I used to love about Kendrick, but presents it in the most genuine, least pretentious, way possible. This song, along with "Norf Norf," is a staple (no pun) in my group of friends. It's a b-----r, but it's also fierce in its commentary. Also, his flow here is one of my favorites in a year where Young Thug has made everyone else look like a complete joke:

"Snitch get a full clip and closed casket
Won't hug your b---- when the ho ratchet
Cold jumper, been shootin', no practice
Been tourin', whip foreign, coupe crashin'
Still bangin' 2 Naughty 2 Nasty
Still "f--- the police" they won't catch me
My feature too pricey, don't ask me
Go hard, 'til Goyard on my baggage
He mad we won't fight, I'm gon' tag him
Mask up at midnight and start clappin'
Kids crying, still snipe him, no lackin'"

Ay...



(also, the music video is absolutely fantastic. kendrick wishes he came up with this s---.)

Bringing up 50 made me think that Dre gets a LOT of unwarranted hate/blame for the clusterfuck that was Detox. I mean to some extent you have to look at what he was dealing with. His best artist decided to turn into a methadone junkie. His other two young, extremely talented artists decided to let their egos blow EVERYTHING up. I mean, if Eminem never got hooked on the drugs and Game/50 weren't immature as f--- we would have had this album in 05/06 and who knows how good it could have been. Dre was dealt some really s-----y cards.

The man was on top of the world and it's been painful seeing his demons chip away at him over the past decade and a bit. Even more harrowing and upsetting to hear that those demons themselves started when he was basically a child.

Pulling for a miracle but dreading that this may be it too.

 

Apr 25, 2016

lmao what

first of all, liking something more because it's "less feminist" is a pretty ridiculous metric

second, this album is about burning men's lives down if they treat you wrong. this is more pointedly feminist by any definition.

I heard he was dead for 3 hours until Em put that tweet out and resurrected him for Easter

15. f---in' Up the Count - Freddie Gibbs
The Wire is the best show of all time. Freddie Gibbs is one of the best rappers of all time. Despite switching up his style, driving head first into the gritty after Pinata's more polished veneer, Gibbs's storytelling is as tight as ever. He makes you listen, has you at the edge of your seat, and throws you into the middle of a couple young gunners f---in' up the count. But you feel safe, protected by his insight and his sage words. He doesn't leave you to fend for yourself -- he's here to show you what he's been through, and how he's become the man he is now. The more melodic Gibbs becomes, the better he gets. And, of now, he doesn't seem to have a ceiling.


14. Calling Your Name - Young Thug
Come on, who else could do a f---in' Ellie Goulding cover besides Young Thug? It might only be for the hook, but it's just more proof that Thug can literally do anything he wants to. Anything. He can take 1 god d--- line from a pop track and morph into his own heartfelt ballad. If that's not creativity at its finest, I apparently have no idea what I'm talking about. He conjures melodies out of nothing, adds extra letters to words just to make them rhyme ("you cant see me like mask(e)s"), sings (at the top of his lungs) about "weiners" in "beamers," and its all just so blissful. None of it seems forced. On the same track he's crooning about "you know we can get away," he's growling about puttin' that "p---- in saran for you." On the same track where he's urging you to "s--- that d-ck, peppermint," he's reminiscing on how it felt to be "so broke that you got jokes." This single track has a dozen flows, a dozen voices, a dozen melodies and, above all, is endearing to a fault. This should be a hit. But we aren't ready for it. Young Thug is "important like pedialyte" (oh come ON, that's f---ing great). He just wants to take care of his family, and make sure if your jewelry is "sunny" his girl's is "windy."


13. Raw - Young Thug
What can I say about this track that hasn't already been covered? From urging himself on during the bridge ("sing to em...that's how you mofuckin' sing to em") to his soul-baring declaration of "L O V EEEEEEEEE," this man is f---ing dangerous. He threatens everything this entire genre has clung onto for decades. He exposes the genre's insecurities. He melds violence with romanticism, croons about pullin' up to "stain lil cuz," and screams his love for his fiancee. His harmonizing, his ability to tap into the exact mood of any given track, his genuinely curious mind...they all contribute to making him the most interesting artist alive, bar none. And he's an incredible writer, on top of that. "A wise man told me...nothing -- he said them snitches they get stitches. I just spent a Bentley on my kidneys. Sayin' I gave my bro the address, the road to riches..." and this is on the same track where he says "hop inside that p---- like a trampoline, boing boing..." It shouldn't work. But it always, and I mean always, does. My favorite part of the track may be "I dropped ten thousand ones on ones on ones," simply for how warped he manages to make that straightforward line sound, and because he follows it up with "I told her to "come on home, hun...you can have my son."" I don't think he'll ever cease to surprise me.

"My love is so big she can't lose that..."


12. Flaws - Young Thug
I've already said all there is to say about this track tbh. This might be the best song out of the 50+ leaked tracks from earlier in the year, and I just managed to get it to the semi-finals in the elimination game just by never shutting up about it lmao. It's absolutely one of the best rap songs of the year, and I'm surprised myself that its this low on my list of favorite tracks from this year. Might be because I played it out months ago, but anyways. From the soaring hook ("Rose goin' right inside the kiiiiitchen") to the fantastic verses, there is, ironically, not a single flaw about this song. It's near the very top of Thug's expansive discography. "Baby I love you, In a house full of grown folks, baby I love you/Swear to god you're my bread and butter/You can still be my all, even if the Feds destroy us" is one of my favorite rap lines, EVER. I loved the line "...they know I'm prince of the city" so much that I mistakenly quoted it in my Barter 6 review (the leaks came out around the same time as I was reviewing the album). Song is flawless.


11. Norf Norf - Vince Staples
"b---- you thirsty, please grab a Sprite..." Vince Staples is one of the most focused rappers in the game right now. And that's why he's f---ing deadly. He can convey any given message without a shred of pretension, and, even better, he can make the most personal of anecdotes accessible to any passerby. He's a bard, a storyteller, a man of letters. But he's also from Northside Long beach and has never run from anything but the police. He's a "gangsta crip, f--- gangsta rap," and his "bandana brown like the dope that he shootin' in the kitchen," but with an ever-sober mind, Staples is able to paint vivid portraits of his upbringing. Although he should be peering out the same window Nas and Kendrick have been noted for lurking around, it seems as if he's never once shied away from being in the center of the commotion. He finds it easier to observe amidst the horrors rather than utilize his privilege of being one-step removed. He's a product of his environment, and he doesn't seem to shun his influences in the least bit.
